I was tagged by @songlin<\/a> to do a \u201cthis year in writing\u201d. I feel like I didn\u2019t do much, but we both know that\u2019s not quite true, is it?<\/p>\n

January: <\/b>This was I think my most productive month, at least half of which was fueled by Sherlock Seattle. Ten fics this month of which I\u2019m most pleased with Proposition <\/a>(my first pegging!), \u00a0What Makes you Beautiful<\/a> (stupid frothy fun) and\u00a0<\/p>\n

5 Times Mycroft Saved Sherlock and 1 Time Sherlock Saved Him<\/a>\u00a0(for some Holmes Brothers feels)<\/p>\n

February:<\/b>\u00a0Three fics this month:\u00a0<\/p>\n

An Unexpected Find<\/a>\u00a0(with @phipiohsum475<\/a>, Johncroft omegaverse),\u00a0<\/p>\n

Someone Has a Type<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<\/p>\n

Leave the Ghosts Behind<\/a><\/p>\n

March: <\/b>6 fics here.\u00a0A Soldier\u2019s Luck<\/a>\u00a0was my first commission fic.\u00a0<\/p>\n

War Doesn\u2019t Stop for a Flirt<\/a>\u00a0(some Jack Harkness\/John Watson pwp) some johncroft and wincest<\/p>\n

April<\/b>: This is where things are dropping off because I was out of work and writing to make money more then writing for fandom.\u00a0\u00a0But I still got out one,\u00a0<\/p>\n

Baker Street Bamfs<\/a>\u00a0which I do intend to write sequels for at some point<\/p>\n

May: <\/b>This has two fics and also the announcement that me and @hums-happily<\/a> would start posting RPs.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Confession<\/a>\u00a0is a sad little s3 fic,\u00a0<\/p>\n

Rentboy in Red<\/a>\u00a0was a commission fic for @fangirlscout<\/a><\/p>\n

June:<\/b>\u00a0Another two fics\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Suit and the Punk<\/a>, for some mycroft selfcest + john and\u00a0<\/p>\n

Chocolate Cake and Blue-Black Wings<\/a>\u00a0as a harkstiel birthday present for @jazzforthecaptain<\/a><\/p>\n

July<\/b>: Eight, but I guess I had less stress this month.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Not Strictly Business<\/a>\u00a0is a lovely feelsy mystrade omegaverse,\u00a0<\/p>\n

Only Know You Love Him When You Let Him Go<\/a>\u00a0is angsty s3 fix-it and\u00a0<\/p>\n

Some Kind of Home<\/a>\u00a0is G rated Jack Harkness feels. Some more pwp and harkstiel in there too.<\/p>\n

August: <\/b>Two again.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Coming Home<\/a>\u00a0will have more added to it at some point, I don\u2019t feel like it\u2019s totally finished. I need to work on it again. Also the fic demanded that it be johncroft. I didn\u2019t plan it that way.<\/p>\n

September:<\/b>\u00a0Huh, another two.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Craving<\/a>, johnlock omegaverse pwp and\u00a0<\/p>\n

Sherlock\u2019s Notebook<\/a>\u00a0a unilock fic inspired by @willietheplaidjacket<\/a> that I\u2019m still super proud of and pleased with.<\/p>\n

October: <\/b>Two. \u00a0<\/b>The Knight and the Dragon<\/a>\u00a0is a lovely bit of johncroft if I do say so myself.\u00a0<\/p>\n

At The Ball<\/a>\u00a0is another bit of Harkstiel pwp.<\/p>\n

November:<\/b>\u00a0Five this month\u00a0<\/p>\n

Unconventional<\/a>\u00a0(my first holmescest!) and\u00a0<\/p>\n

Take Me Back to the Start<\/a>, a feelsy s3 johnlock fic. Also some mystrade in there too and johnlock pwp.<\/p>\n

December: <\/b>Five, plus I\u2019m sitting on one that I\u2019ll probably post in the next day or so, so I\u2019m going to call it 6. Mostly for the Harkstiel advent that I utterly failed at. And also\u00a0<\/p>\n

Revelations<\/a>, which was another commission fic.<\/p>\n

\n

Well, that\u2019s more than I thought I did. Not as much as some other years, but I really should stop feeling guilty for not writing more. 47 Fics in total is nothing to sneeze at, especially since I got in some longer ones. Now do I poke my muse and try to get to 50 before the first?<\/p>\n

Also I\u2019m presently sitting at 320 total fics. August 1 was my 2nd anniversary in the Sherlock fandom and\u00a0<\/p>\n

One Starry Night<\/a>\u00a0crossed 25k hits.<\/p>\n

So, nothing to be ashamed of and I have indeed been writing stuff, much to my own surprise.<\/p>\n

Right let me tag some fine folks @hums-happily<\/a>, @jaimistoryteller, @tiger-in-the-flightdeck<\/a>, @eveningsoother<\/a>, @phipiohsum475<\/a>, @themadkatter13<\/a> and anyone else who wants to do it<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

<\/figure>\n<\/p>\n

You go, @merindab<\/a>!!!!! \u00a0You did awesome this year and I can\u2019t wait to see what 2K16 brings us in the way of glorious fics from you!!!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
