silverinkI saw that the lovely @oldshrewsburyian had done this challenge and was inspired to give it a go myself! :D
Total number of completed stories: 13 (plus like 3 WIPs lol)
Total word count: About 31k 😱
Fandoms written in: Cabin Pressure, Endeavour, Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries, Star Wars (WIPs are Cabin Pressure & The Eagle of the Ninth!!)
Looking back, did you write more fic than you thought you would this year, less, or about what you’d expected? More!! I’ve been so busy this year omg
What’s your own favorite story of the year? Hmmm what a question!! It’s hard to pick, but I really love First Meetings, “E—E for what?”, & Small Talk (plus the rest of the smalltalk series I’ve done)
Did you take any writing risks this year? Yeah I’ve taken some risks with just writing stuff for me?? Like just writing some kinda ridiculous ideas I come up with! XD
Do you have any fanfic or profit goals for the new year? I want to finish the WIPs I’m working on & I want to start writing regularly for some new-ish fandoms I’ve gotten into!
Best story of the year? Hmmm I’m not sure? Prob Small Talk since it got so popular?? Or any of my other favorites tbh!
Most popular story of the year? Small Talk!!! I have no idea how that got so popular lol! XD
Story of mine most under-appreciated by the universe, in my opinion: Oxford 99 tbh, that one was great! XDD And Love, Firelight, and Warmth!!
Most fun story to write: How can I pick just one?? Probably something came up, Fireworks, & Small Talk XD
Story that shifted my own perceptions of the characters: I think Bobsled Team bc it’s the first story I’ve done about Cabin Pressure & I kinda found out some things about Theresa as I was writing her!
Most unintentionally telling story: …..I have a couple from this year but I’m not telling XD
Biggest disappointment: Probably that Oxford 99 & something came up didn’t get very popular! They’re definitely kinda weird crossovers, true, but still… Also I was sad that Love, Firelight, and Warmth didn’t get too popular, I liked writing Ace Luke Skywalker!!
Biggest surprise: The stories I basically just wrote for me getting so popular! That’s def something I’ve started to figure out about fic writing this year: stories I write for my own enjoyment also become popular with other people!
