* denotes epic
My best story this year, in my opinion:
Inevitable. It's my baby. It's got a great story and characters and it's just the neatest thing since sliced bread.
Story most under-appreciated by the universe, in my opinion:
Different Eyes. Come on, people! An Anita Blake/Firefly crossover!
Most fun story:
Inevitable, all the way. I'm having a blast writing it.
Most disappointing story:
Merlot. It sort of started strong, then fizzled out.
Sexiest story:
Unwrapped holds a special spot in my heart.
Story with single sexiest moment:
Mind the Gap. The Faith/Anita kiss. Mrow.
Hardest story to write:
Candlelight. Buffy keeps changing her mind about what's going on, plus the big bad was sort of a little bad.
Most controversial story: Can I say
Switchback, when the controversial part is in the next chapter? I'll do it anyway. It's a novel fic concept.
Weirdest story: I have no idea. You tell me.
What's coming up for 2006 (perhaps): Finish
Inevitable and
Candlelight and get some headway in
Switchback. More short stories, more drabbles. I've got a couple of sequels for Inevitable on tap, as well.
