Writing round-up, 2013 edition
First up, lemme recap the Days of Christmas...
I wrote 15,636 words to create 31 fics in 18 fandoms (and 2 original pieces) for 11 recipients. :)
Day 1: Breakfast in Bed - LJ / AO3
NFL RPF; PG; Tom Brady/Matt Cassel/Matt Leinart
Sundays are game days, but a bye week is something special
Day 2: Not A Rod Stewart Song - LJ / AO3
Actor RPF; PG; Orlando Bloom/Gerard Butler
Orlando should know better than to go out drinking with Gerard.
Day 3: Lose Your Mind - LJ / AO3
original, PG
Living life

It's always better when they're out of their minds.
Day 6: Untagged - LJ - AO3
Leverage; PG; Eliot Spencer, Parker, Alec Hardison, Nathan Ford, Sophie Devereaux
Being an untagged 'super' is a crime. But only if you're caught.
Day 7: It's All In the Journey - LJ / AO3
Pacific Rim; PG; Chuck Hansen/Raleigh Becket
In which everyone lives, Chuck is really bad at flirting, Raleigh is (mostly) clueless, Mako is Mako, and Team Hot Dads do a lot of eye-rolling.
Day 8: Scout's Honor - LJ / AO3
King Arthur; PG; Tristan/Galahad
A brief conversation that isn't about respect.
Day 9: Naughty (Not Nice) - LJ / AO3
Star Trek AOS RPF; PG13; Karl Urban/Eric Bana
Karl will never be too old to sit in Santa's lap.
Day 10: Blanket - LJ / AO3
Teen Wolf; PG; Derek Hale/Stiles Stilinski
Stiles doesn't remember falling asleep.
Day 11: Trimming the Tree - LJ / AO3
Lotrips/Merlin RPF; PG; Karl Urban/Orlando Bloom/Katie McGrath
Orlando wants a tree, Katie pitches in, and Karl just rolls with it as always.
Day 12: Fun (Not So Much) - LJ / AO3
Lotrips; PG; Karl Urban/Harry Sinclair/Orlando Bloom
Harry's idea of fun never quite matches anyone else's.
Day 13: Mostly Ridiculous - LJ / AO3
Actor RPF; PG; Viggo Mortensen/Eric Bana
Just another day in the Mortensen-Bana household.
Day 14: Loyalty = LJ / AO3
Game of Thrones; PG; Jaime Lannister/Brienne of Tarth
This isn't how it was meant to be.
Day 15: Cold Hands, Warm Hearts - LJ / AO3

It's Chuck's first winter in Alaska. The fact that he complains about the cold is a surprise to no one.
Day 16: Star Bright - LJ / AO3
LOTR; PG; Legolas/Éomer
A moment of peace.
Day 17: The Perfect Gift - LJ / AO3
Leverage; PG; Eliot Spencer/Alec Hardison/Parker
For Eliot's birthday, Parker and Hardison plan to give him something he's always wanted.
Day 18: Drunken Karaoke - LJ / AO3

Karaoke is fun for everyone. Even more so after you've had a few drinks.

RocknRolla; PG; One Two Handsome Bob, Mumbles
One Two can't sing.
Day 20: Exhausting - LJ / AO3
King Arthur; PG; Arthur/Lancelot (implied Arthur/Lancelot/Tristan)
Everyone needs a break from time to time. Even the most stoic of warriors.

Just what the title says.

There are always regrets.
Day 24: Blood and Cocoa - LJ / AO3
Black Hawk Down; PG; Norman "Hoot" Gibson/Matt Eversmann
It's not Christmas without a trip to the ER.
Day 25: On Set - LJ / AO3
Pacific Rim RPF; PG; Rob Kazinsky, Max Martini, Max the bulldog
Just a little bit of hanging out on set.
Day 26: Other Holidays - LJ / AO3
Lotrips/Merlin RPF; PG; Karl Urban/Orlando Bloom/Katie McGrath
In which Orlando makes a decision, Katie questions it a LOT, and Karl is still trying to figure out what he did wrong in a previous life to deserve all this.
Day 27: The Song Fades - LJ / AO3
original; PG
He'd thought she was the one.

Interestingly enough, I didn't write a single solo thing until July. And then I did the Lazy Hazy Summer Daze fics. Then I saw Pacific Rim. And, um. My muses went completely batshit. No joke.
This past year, from July to December, I wrote 111,868 words. 85,355 of those words were Pacific Rim fics.
Mind you, one of those fics is a WIP and two others are finished first drafts which may or may not ever see the light of day, but still. That movie ate my f'n brain, and I'm not even sorry. :)
Including PR, though, I wrote/posted 72 fics in a total of 32 fandoms. Um.
I feel like 2014 is going to be kind of a let down. :D But I do have my PR Reverse Bang to write. And a few other ideas. Or, who knows. Maybe I'll just retire.
