September to November 2015 Report
It's only been three months since the last report and not four so I guess that's progress? Kidding aside, I managed to catch up since my last report by writing over 100k words in the last three months!
Fanfic
I wrote 23232 words in September, 29555 in October, and 53052 in November.
At the end of August I was behind by 25k words. Now I'm ahead by 3k. I still have a bit over 10k to write this month to reach my 200k goal, but I'm confident I'll manage that.
On to the really long list of things I wrote:
John and baby Kat (working title) NC-17. John/Rodney. Added 1912 words to this and also outlined the rest so that I can come back to it and remember at least one way to continue the story. Contemporary AU. A one-night-stand turns into more when Rodney meets John, single father of a young baby girl.
Pretty PG. John/Rodney. 897 words. John has doubts when Rodney claims that he's been called pretty, so Rodney shows him a picture from when he was younger.
Flight of the Dragon Light R. John/Rodney. 11958 words. Wizard School AU. Rodney accidentally conjures a dragon and enlists John's help to deal with it.
Chocolate PG-13. John/Rodney. 673 words. Suggestive eating of chocolate leads to them getting together. (For McSheplets prompt "Sweet")
Stranded NC-17. John/Rodney. Finished this by adding 7679 words. Contemporary AU. Rodney's (ex-)girlfriend leaves him stranded in a small town during their vacation where he meets John. (For McSheplets prompt "Stranded")
Heart over Head PG. John/Rodney. 1223 words. Rodney muses about how irrational certain things like feelings are and a discussion with John leads to things. (For McSheplets prompt "smart")

The Tower PG. John/Rodney. 4086 words. Medieval-ish AU. Rodney spends his days in a tower, keeping watch for a signal to pass on. He's alone and likes that until John enters his life. (Written for a very, very, very old challenge based on Tarot cards).
The Great Sheppardo and Happy PG. John/Rodney. 2556 words. Contemporary AU. Jeannie invites Rodney to Madison's birthday party. John is entertaining with his handpuppet Happy. (I have no recollection what inspired this, but it must have been something specific...)
Power of Love G. John/Rodney. 461 words. Established Relationship. Written for Back to the Future Day. @AO3 @LJ
Alive PG. John/Rodney. 2074 words. Nation on the brink of war/Spy AU. John and Rodney meet regularly to secretly exchange information, until John realizes he's about to be caught. I like the tone of this one.
Visiting the Sheppards PG. John/Rodney. 2761 words. After another breakup Rodney accompanies John to visit his brother's family. Susan's curiosity gets the a discussion started that leads to revelations. (For McSheplets prompt "visit")

Art
I created and sent in my Reverse Bang Art. Posting will happen in March/April 2016.
On the AO3 posting front, I'm now at December 2008. I'm at 328 works now, which means I've added eleven stories since the last report. In addition to the ones mentioned above, I posted nine previously posted stories (7 John/Rodney, 1 Joe/David, 1 Amelia Banks/Anne Teldy).
For the rest of the year, I'll finish my 200k word goal. For next year I'll definitely go back to 150k. And I hope to post some of the unposted stories (and continue reposting to AO3 so that everything is available there eventually).
