2013 - Writing Year in Review

2013 seemed to be a good writing year for me. Especially when compared to last year's numbers. Below is the damage and some rambling from me.

I hope everyone has a happy New Year! See you in 2014!

High Points of the Year:
Completing the White Collar Big Bang has to be the highest point. I posted my longest fic ever at 16,000 words with Everything to Lose.

Low Points:
The month of October. It was low for writing, but high for everything else because I got see NYC and [livejournal.com profile] sinfulslasher for the first time at the same time. If it's any consolation, she left me with plenty of bunnies to feed.

My favorite fic(s) this year:
Everything to Lose (aka longest fic eveh!) is definitely on the favorite list. I've always wanted to write a longer fic and I finally did. I also enjoy The Philadelphia Story because I love doing back stories for both Tony and Neal.

My least favorite fic(s) this year:
I don't really have a least favorite. I usually like all my fics to some degree or another. Now the one that I wish I had written more on is Three Modifications, but I had limited myself to 300 words for some silly reason.

Most successful fic:
Going by kudos over at AO3, The Offer wins. It's hard to tell on LJ without going back through comment counts or something.

Most fun fic:
Both are Highlander crossovers... All in Good Time and In a Panic. Unexpected deaths where they don't stay dead are always fun to do.

Most poignant fic:
I'm going with The Right to Vote on this one. It's so easy to forget that Neal is actually a convicted felon serving a sentence and that because of that he doesn't have the same basic rights that the rest of Americans have.

Hardest fic to write:
I don't really have one for this. I guess Everything to Lose (aka longest fic eveh!) probably works since it took so long to finish and it was in part why I didn't write anything in October.

Bunnies that are jumping out of the pen:
Well, I have my handy dandy Unanswered Prompts / Community Fics to Be Written post to keep track of what I'm working on. I also have some lingering bunnies from my time in NYC with [livejournal.com profile] sinfulslasher (Neal in the North Woods, that Egyptian AU and castration fic oh my!).

Goals for 2014:
