Overall Thoughts:
Looking back, did you write more fic than you thought you would this year, less, or about what you'd predicted? Both less and what I expected. With nearly dropping out of fandom for a while this is not a surprise
What pairing/genre/fandom did you write that you would never have predicted in January? Doctor Who was a surprise for me. Never wrote something for that before
What's your own favorite story of the year? I think I have to go with the drabble series “Alternate Vessel of Castiel“ because it not only allows me to play in all kinds of fandoms, I can explore random characters
Did you take any writing risks this year? Yes. In ratings, fandoms and kinks
Do you have any fanfic or profic goals for the new year? Continue your WIPs and the other stories just burning on my hard drive, waiting to be cleaned up and posted!
From my past year of writing, what was...
My best story of this year: That's a hard question. Obviously I don't hate anything I've written, I would have never posted it otherwise. It depends on my mood, the same reason I vary in which genre I write
My most popular story of this year: According to AO3, “On Separate Channels”. Given the rating and the Warnings and my tendency to normally write gen this was not a surprise
Story of mine most under-appreciated by the universe, in my opinion: “A different battle”, also not a surprise. It's for one of these series that died way to early and doesn't actually have a fandom
Most fun story to write: “5 Reasons Zachariah hates being on earth and 1 Reason why he likes it here”.
Story with the single sexiest moment: “Sleeping Aid”. Yes, lame, I know
Most "holy crap, that's wrong, even for you" story: I would have to say “On Separate Channels”, even if I didn't write it with that in mind. I just tried to find a way to write a story with a non-con and bestiality warning to fit a comm for humor. But “For One Night” was a surprise as well.
Story that shifted my own perceptions of the characters: “Chance Encounter”. One of the things about writing crossovers is that with that you see characters in a different light
Hardest story to write: “On Separate Channels”. I've never written crack before and I expect I will never do it again. This is not something that comes naturally to me
Biggest disappointment: “Meeting a missing friend”. Knowing there could have been so much more and I just lack the will and ideas
Biggest surprise: “The waiting room” I didn't think about writing some kind of meta-ish story, it just happened that way
Most unintentionally telling story: “Horror Movie Night” Had I been there with Kevin and Crowley I would have suffered as well!
Fic-writing goals for 2014: I have a few original stories I have to finish and polish
