time to look back at us now
I've been counting up my stories to get a jump on my year in review post, though given that there are still 21 days left in the month, I hope I'm not done with writing this year (Darcy/Clint fake Christmas boyfriend has to be done by Christmas! and also 
white_lotus!), and I was looking over the navel-gazey questions, and man, I don't know.
So I ask you, if you've read some of my stuff this year:
Is there an overarching theme to my stories this year? If so, what is it?
What is the best story I've written this year? (alternately, as it may not be the same, what is your favorite of the stories I've written this year?)
What is the sexiest story I've written this year? The most fun?
Did anything I've written change your perception of a character (or characters)?
Did anything I've written surprise you?
Is there anything you wish I'd write?
Do you have any other questions about stuff I've written?
everything I wrote this year with the exception of the stuff posted so far in December and my yuletide story can be found either under the monthly writing roundup tag or via my pinboard index.

ooh, the preview button is now below the update window in the updated beta update page (update no longer looks like a real word to me now)! yay! That makes much more sense to me.

I did post a story yesterday:
Dreams have never made my bed (at AO3)
Push; Nick/Cassie; adult; 1500 words
Cassie's fourteen the first time she has a vision of Nick fucking her.
aka, 5 visions, but it's really 4 visions and one reality. Also, it's a drabble pyramid, because I apparently like making things hard on myself, but each section increases by 100 words, so section 1 is exactly 100, 2 is exactly 200, etc. until it hits section 5, which is 500 words. I wrote the first four sections Thursday night after I was supposed to be in bed, and then section 5 at work when I was supposed to be writing board minutes. *hands* I am a big fan of striking while the iron is hot, because I never know when it will stop working and I'll be stalled out on something I could have finished if I'd given up an hour or two of sleep.
I think that is the major difference between me now and me a few months ago - I'd gotten out of that mindset, where writing was more important to me than doing other things (like work, or sleeping) - and while it's less than optimal in my offline life to prioritize writing (especially at work!), I kind of like that I'm doing it again. Though I wish I could just get the fake Christmas boyfriend story out of my head and onto paper (screen?) so easily.
