Reflections:
Looking back, did you write more fic than you thought you would this year, less, or about what you'd predicted?
Last year, I wrote NINE fics (8 Trek, 1 Tin Man) -- per the LJ postings -- so I was expecting the same, if not less.
What pairing/genre/fandom did you write that you would never have predicted in January?
Probably Arrowverse, actually. It was my first time.
What's your own favorite story of the year?
Tossup between Baby on the Bridge and Pediatric Protocol.
Did you take any writing risks this year?
Not that I can think of.... well.. Flowers touched on a canon-point most fans really don't like. So I guess risk?
Do you have any fanfic or profic goals for the new year?
Crossposting to Ao3 and DW ; maybe stop plotting the OC stuff and actually write it. Also, while it's not technically fic, getting back into the RP-side of writing entries and fleshing out characters
My best story of this year:
I think Flowers was pretty deep.....
My most popular story of this year:
Flowers and Baby on the Bridge are pretty much tied for reactions on Ao3
Story of mine most under-appreciated by the universe, in my opinion:
I don't post enough outside of my own LJ, so there's really not an accurate sample size to work with....
Most fun story to write:
Ugly Sweater Battle Royale. Steve's smart-ass meter was at 11.
Story with the single sexiest moment:
Baby on the Bridge, actually. And that's saying something, since the Can you stay? entry is the only one that involved any sort of hanky-panky.. I mean, unless you don't actually find the mental image of Beltran holding a baby sexy?
Most "holy crap, that's wrong, even for you" story:
I guess programming the Doc McStuffins theme into Voyager's computers... but that really is kinda so obviously ~ME~, isn't it?
Hardest story to write:
Actually, that's Buttery Take-Out. I've been working on this 'verse for a few years, now.. it's plotted out twelve ways from Wednesday, but I just can't seem to get any of it down on paper
Biggest disappointment:
Not finishing fictober or adventdrabbles; not getting any of the original fic started; slacking on the RP entries
A Qualified Negotiator got me my first negative review on Ao3. On one hand, I've arrived; on the other... it kinda stung a little bit. maybe a little more than that
Most unintentionally telling story:
Great Ozma, why are Wyatt and Adora still so sickeningly perfect after all these years??!? Up side, I was able to get some more of an old series out; down side, I realize just how many WiPs I have lying around, collecting dust.
Did you reach last year's goal?
Not sure I had one, last year, to be perfectly honest.
