My favorite story this year:Either
Ou sont les neiges d’antan or the
epilogue of Sleeves Stained Red. I had immense fun writing both, and though I think Ou sont les neiges was the better of the two, Catelyn’s revenge on Walder Frey was one of the things that prompted Sleeves Stained Red as a fic from the beginning, so it was definitely very satisfying to write.
My best story this year:Probably Ou sont les neiges. I tend to write better when I write less – mostly because there’s not as much room for me to ramble and/or take it OOC.
Story most under-appreciated by the universe, in my opinion:Uhh, maybe
Kindling. No readers to my knowledge (certainly no reviews), so I have honestly no idea how it went down, if at all, though I rather hoped it was a good portrayal of how their wedding night might have gone, without the over-excited, over-sexed, love-at-first-sight hype that I’ve read before.
Sexiest Story:I’m not much of a smut writer, so I don’t think I really have this problem in that sense -
Sleeves Stained Red (Chapter 14) Impropriety or Kindling are probably the only non-kid friendly ones, and even they are no higher that PG/T.
Most fun story:See Question #1. Ou sont... and SSR epilogue :D
"Holy crap, that's *wrong*, even for you" story:Not sure I have this problem either, so n/a? Unless you count writing Catelyn/Tywin fics when Cat/Ned is my Game of Thrones OTP? In itself it is an odd pairing – it’s certainly a new pairing, I know there wasn’t any fic of it until 2012 – but then again it’s gone down pretty well with people who’ve considered it.
Story that shifted my own perceptions of the characters:Again, don’t think this really applies, but it was rather fun to write naughty!Matthew for Impropriety. (Mind you, it was the the 3x01 episode that shifted my perception to allow this more than anything).
Hardest story to write:Attempts to Atone. It was for a gift-exchange ficathon on RHFC (originally intended to be a sort of Secret Santa thing, but all the writers – including me! – took so long to cough up that it was well past Christmas by the time stuff got posted) but I didn’t manage to write it until months later. The prompt was . Which reminds me, I still need to post that here/on FF.net... :P
Biggest surprise:Not applicable to any of the fics posted, but how much I want to write this annoyingly difficult, impossibly long, currently plot-lacking, historically accurate as possible, but still recognisably RH BBC, 18th century AU(/DA crossover-ish) fic. Having the outlaws as Luddites, Will as an East India Company official (and Marian’s cousin) with Djaq as his half-Indian wife, Robin (and Much) as naval officers, and Marian’s father’s title and estate entailed away to a distant male cousin (hence the DA crossover bit) – Guy of Gisborne. Why aren’t there more years in a day so that I can research an write this?!?!?!
A story I want remembered:Ou sont les neiges. If there is one fic I want remembered (and one AU-verse I want to continue/want other people to adopt), it is this. (Not just because of Brienne-the-lady’s-maid either!)
Resolutions for 2013:- write more for
asoiafkinkmeme (not necessarily smut – there are some fantastic non-smut prompts that really get my creative juices flowing, I just need to sit down and actually put words to paper)
- maybe write a bit of the RH 19th century AU fic (?????)
- FINISH THE ROBIN HOOD DRABBLEFEST PROMPTS FROM LAST YEAR
- also finish the International Women’s Day prompts
- and the Advent Fic prompts
- write more Catelyn/Tywin DA-universe fic
- and more Catelyn/Ned fic to make up for abandoning my babies
- and Jaime/Sansa, because they are amazing together
I. AM. SCREWED.
