Memes x 3.
All of these gacked from large numbers of people.
One journal-related meme: take the first line of the first post of each month to form a summary of the year.
January:
...where the sam hell I am.
[The only post for that month, no less. Lack of internet.]
February:
Er, I mean my internet connection.
March:
On the friendditto mess:
April:
I'm in Hustler.
[In large header, of course.]
May:
Drabble/ficlet challenges.
June:
Last call for the OMG I'M GRADUATING FIC CHALLENGE.
[Which, flake that I am, I never finished the fics for. *groans*]
July:
At girlfriend's house for a couple of days.
August:
I'm baaaaaaaaaack!
[From Maine.]
September:
State of the Fic:
[Yup, that sums up September all right. *twitch*]
October:
Got home from Smith, slept for an age, woke up to wank which I'm actually vaguely connected to.
November:
Just a preliminary squee: two packages at once!
[Yup, that sums up November perfectly too. Referring to BPAL, of course.]
December:
*makes bad puns*
And two writing-related memes, both horribly egotistical. Please forgive me, my feet hurt, whiskey tango foxtrot.
In the comments, tell me what you think the best fic I've ever written is, and copy/paste your favorite line from the story in question. Don't forget to tell me just why that was your favorite line, and just why the fic you're waxing ecstatic about is your favorite fic to begin with!
Copy this into your own LJ, and of course I'll do the same thing for you! [Or I'll do my best, given that I suck and usually don't know all or even most of people's work because I don't read enough. *leeches pathetically upon the face of fandom*]
-and-
1) Do I have a distinct style of writing?
2) If so, what exactly is it that defines my "style"?
3) Would you say my stories usually follow a 'theme'?
4) Is there anything I really need to improve or change?
5) Does my style (if I have one) remind you of anyone else?
6) Judging from whatever writing of mine that you've seen, what do you think is/are my strength(s)?
7) What do you think is/are my weakness(es)?
8) What would you rate my writing overall on a scale of 1-10?
Sortof tempted to write my own answers to this one, but I'm not sure there'd really be a point.
Memes aside, this was really my first eight hour day of hard work. My feet are screaming and I am tired, but it was way better than staying at home with Mum, y0. (She has not, far as I can tell, thrown out any of my stuff. Yet.)
