An anniversary, and a fic masterlist

Aug 18, 2011 17:55

It was suggested to me that I should put up a masterlist of my online fic. And today happens to be quite an appropriate day, as it's seven years since I started my LiveJournal, and LJ claims that this is my 1,000th entry, though I'm a bit suspicious about that as I seem to remember its counter is a bit dodgy. Anyway, I have made approximately one thousand entries over the past seven years.

As far as I can remember, I have written fic in three fandoms (now joined by an unexpected fourth, a fifth that one might expect to have been there all along, and a sixth that I thought was a one-off until it gained a partner... oh, and now there's a seventh and eighth, and then there are the crossovers with a ninth and tenth). The B7 list has expanded recently as I've uploaded fic which was posted on email lists or appeared in print zines to AO3.

I haven't tried to use a ratings system because I never understand them. There's hardly any sex (if it crops up, I usually mention it in the note) but quite a lot of death, particularly in the B7 stories. I have tried to sort them into a very rough chronological order.
