my fic -- 2007
2 Jan 2008 08:22 pmFavourite fic overall:
This may be a strange choice, but that would be No More To Leave It. I fucking LOVED writing this fic, I loved how it turned out, and I am hugely proud of the concept. I think the emotions are strong, and the prose is good, and the allusions are clever. Pity it's depressing and bizarre andnot McShep every community I posted it to had it tagged as 'character death'. IT'S NOT. IT'S NOT. Humph.
Other assorted favourites:
This year's grand success was certainly turn your sail (never say we die); it was so much fun to write, to a soundtrack of Up Is Down played seven million times or so, and the words matched the images inside my head to a degree that doesn't happen often. I also really like Twelve Pater Nosters -- this one gave me the jitters, but it managed to hit just about all the things I wanted to comment on about the film itself, so...I was pleased. I will never write anything as stuffed full of meta as Eleusis; it was exhausting, but worthwhile. Daddy's Gonna Buy You A Looking Glass is another one that was everything I wanted it to be, and probably the one I'm most proud of in terms of character voices & development. Healer will probably be my most-representative-of-the-year fic, celebrating as it does both the end of the HP saga and my own sudden obsession with anatomy, and I am very fond of the prose. And I think I also need to mention no sleepers must sleep, because I really enjoy ficcing out sidelined characters (*coughSamAnderscough*) and this fic was just as dirty and decadent as anyone could desire.
Most underappreciated:
Through no real fault of its own, Take to witness all the gods. It's a weird and disturbing fic, there's no doubt about it, and I guess I should learn not to pour huge amounts of time and effort into weird and disturbing fics.
Most fun:
Considering that we spent 24 hours in my room giggling and passing laptops back and forth and gleefully finishing each others' scenes and making high-pitched exclamations like WAIT WAIT I JUST HAD A STROKE OF BRILLIANCE! AGAIN! I think the honours for this title were won fair and square by Those Journeymen Divine.
( And the comprehensive list )
