End of Year Word Count Meme
Well, here we are, again. Another year passed. It seems like I just did this for 2010 yesterday. O_o;;; I have too much going on this morning to really delve into detail about the past year, but I worked my ass off organizing this last night and I'd like get it posted.
A few little notes:
1) The four fics at the end listed as "to be revealed" are the four I wrote for Yuletide. Author reveal is in like... 30 minute, but I can't wait that long. I have to be out the door by then. So... yeah.
2) I was nowhere near as prolific this year as I was last year. I think part of that was burn-out from NaNoWriMo the year before and part was that I was just so damned busy. :-P Still, a respectable total word count: nearly 180,000 words. Not too shabby. ;)
3) Fandom spread this year was also more even. Hair beat out everyone else again for the most written for fandom, but not by nearly as much as last year. Newsies (musical) came in second, Book of Mormon third and Fushigi Yuugi fourth.
4) This year also marked a major writing milestone for me...
I wrote smut.
With a vengeance.
(NC-17 stories will be starred in case you want to avoid them.)
O_O Yes, you read that right. After years beyond count resisting, I have finally caved. As promised, Nuriko and Tasuki had the honor of being the first. Claude and Berger followed after them fairly quickly. Elder McKinley and Lucifer (Don't. Ask. Seriously. I still don't know what happened there. O_o;;;) were next, then Claude and Berger (again), then Connor and Eric (My fandom has twins. *_* ^_~), then... heh. Then, I wrote het smut. *sweatdrop* Yeah. I don't know, either. -.-;;;
5) Second major writing milestone was this: I participated in two fic exchanges this year -- the Power Rangers femslash ficathon and.... YULETIDE. OMG, I had so much fun. *_* Seriously. Read my love letter to Yuletide. If you can handle all the tail wagging, that is. ;)
Anyway, I have plenty of fic plans for the coming year. I promised smutty ending to the Book of Mormon and Newsies boys. I need to get back to cracking on the third Algea fic. I have plans/starts for several other Hair fics (and I'm seeing it twice next week in Philly, so muse... get ready for a jolt ^_~). Yuletide opened up a few new fandoms to me that I hadn't considered (or more accurately, had forgotten I was considering), and whetted my appetite for more. I also have a few fics in my notebook that weren't included in the year end meme because I don't have counts on them, but they're short, little things. Only a few small handwritten pages, so... eh. Probably bumps the word count over 180,000, though... eh. Maybe I'll type 'em up and count 'em later. ;)
Aside from that, I'm still mourning the loss of my crashed hard drive and now that I'm slightly more financially secure, I can consider getting that recovered. *cheers* But I seem to have done OK without it, regardless, wouldn't you say? ^_^
Oh, one last thing I forgot. I'm driving to PA today, but I will get my four Yuletide fics shifted over to LJ when I can. If you want to know what they are before I move them, you can find them on the AO3 (link is on the right). Author reveal should happen in another 10 minutes and you can find them, then. ;)
HAPPY NEW YEAR, EVERYONE!! :D
