AO3 Top Hits Meme, 2016 Edition
I'm a bit late doing this meme this year, but was curious about how things had changed.
List your ten fics at AO3 that have had the most hits.
1. In the Bleak Midwinter
Pros My 2011 Pros Big Bang story, and the last entry (so far) in the Comfort and Joy series. In its fourth year as number one.
2. The First Time 'Round.
My Edge of Tomorrow Yuletide fic, number 11 last year, and has shot up to 2 this year. It also has the most kudos by far of any of my fic.
3. Dreaming of a White Christmas
Take That Number 2 last year, and my 2013 Christmas story.
4. Exile
Pros My lone Pros novel, and the absolute hardest thing I've ever written. (It took eight years to finish, give or take.) Dropped down from 3 last year.
5. Pretty Little Liars
Take That My entry for the inaugural Take That Big Bang in 2012. Up from 6 last year.
6. Firsts
Pros A series of vignettes of firsts in Bodie and Doyle's lives, and probably the second hardest stories I've ever written. ("How hard can it be?" I asked myself. "A bunch of vignettes; I can toss that off in a couple of weeks, tops." I think it ended up taking more than a year.) Down from 4 last year.
7. Nothing Worth Having
Sherlock Holmes, RDJ Movie-verse My one Holmes/Watson/Mary OT3. It's down two from last year.
8. Live 'Til You Die. Pros An entry for the hc_bingo sacrifice square. Held the same place last year.
9. Happy Endings
Pros Young mercenary Bodie meets young copper Doyle. Down two places from 7 last year.
10. An Open Book
Sherlock Holmes, RDJ Movie-verse Down one from 9.
In the wake of the UNCLE movie, a number of my UNCLE stories have been getting a lot of hits. The Carpathian Christmas Affair is bubbling under at #11. It's the story I wrote for the 2010 Down the Chimney challenge on muncle.
