( My thoughts on my fanwork production this year. )
( And a few excerpts from current works-in-progress. )

In your own space, post a rec for at least three fanworks that you have created. It can be your favorite fanworks that you've created, or fanworks you feel no one ever saw, or fanworks you say would define you as a creator. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

Well, this is good timing, because I was writing that fake boyfriends party fic right up until the stroke of midnight, and I'm damn proud of it. Also, the damn Wincestiel big bang I just wrote, and my Losers piece from last year's

ante_up_losers exchange.

( Me rambling about Team Free Will and Wincestiel and some awesome recs. )

AND! I'm super late on this post, partially because life happened, but also partially because I posted a Wincestiel big bang a while back, thinking there wasn't going to be any art. Found out

wifihunters was having a tough time IRL but was still working on the art and now it's live and holy crap IT IS AMAZING.

The story behind this story is that I signed up for a Wincestiel big bang last year, and the epic story I'd been working on (I had 25k words done going in – I really thought I could finish it!). But then I've realized it's roughly a 100k word story and I wasn't going to finish in time for the deadline. But it was a 10k minimum and I can pull that out in a day if I need to, so I came up with a second story and started to write. What if Cas asked the Winchesters out on a date – both of them? But then I couldn't finish that one either (though they extended the deadline by a month – I could've probably made it if they'd said something when I sent my defaulting email). And so when this Team Free Will Big Bang came up, I decided to finish that romcom idea because I loved it so much. I'm still working on the other epic story, and hoping to finish that one next year. I've got another one in the works, too, an alt!season 9 that I think will be awesome. But anyway – I finished this one, and there is freaking GORGEOUS art to go with it. :D :D :D :D

Here is my December meme topics post, if you have something you desperately want to ask me.

eleanor_lavish: What is your favorite fic that you've ever written? What was your hardest? Easiest?

( I'm making the cut upfront because this is likely to be looooooong. )

devon: Which Firefly character(s) do you identify with most? If it's not too personal, let us know why?

( Not too too long, but long enough for a cut. )

st_aurafina: I'd love to hear about women of Supernatural in the later seasons.

( Cut because I have so many feels on this topic! )

My personal note: while I'm proud of what I've achieved with this piece, and it's been an interesting process, I don't think it's one of my best, and am only posting a notice here because some of you've mentioned you would like that and also, damn, I'm just so proud I finished this monster.

That Yuletide meme (which I wasn't going to do because a couple of my stories (including one of my favorites) are under pseuds. But then I decided I liked my other Yuletide stuff too, so I'll put those up and just live with it. Also, I'm procrastinating on both my

solstice_calendar treat and my Yuletide pinch hit.

( Cut for details on 5 stories )

I'm sure there have been a number of these before, but I am making one up on the spot because I need some joy right now.

Give me a fandom and at least one other thing (prompt, kink, pairing, color, whatever) and I will attempt to write you a one sentence fic.

Fandoms on offer: The Losers, SGA, early SPN (as in, S1), Elementary, Arrow, Buffy/Angel, Firefly, Alexander (2004) (or maybe Renault-verse, though it's been a while), Marvel Cinematic Universe (I love the name of this fandom - it sounds so cool! (not that Avengers doesn't)), Priest, Push, Die Hard 4, The Mummy, Master and Commander, The Fast and the Furious, basically almost any semi-popular U.S. movie ever (I'll let you know if it's not something I can do), Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings (RPF there too), Temeraire, the Belgariad and Mallorean.

Also, I'm not current on the following, but I'll give them a try, provided you choose something from at least a year or two ago: Leverage, Criminal Minds, Haven, Revenge, White Collar, Psych... and anything else I've mentioned in passing on this journal.

So I am doing the Fandom Snowflake Challenge, and lucky for me, day one works neatly with

sga_santa reveals.

Day one: In your own space, post a rec for at least three fanworks that you have created. It can be your favorite fanworks that you've created, or fanworks you feel no one ever saw, or fanworks you say would define you as a creator.

I don't think any of my fic defines me as a creator (every story is a piece of me; none of it is more me than anything else), and normally I'd go with rarepairs or something like that, but it just so happens that

sga_santa reveals were today, and I just so happened to write three stories for the fest, each of which are something special to me.

What Happens in Pegasus, Stays in Pegasus, Rodney/Jennifer, Rodney/Jennifer/John, NC17, ~11,000 words.

This story started the moment I got my prompt, and went like wildfire. I haven't written too much het, even less explicit het, and then I've written even less M/F/M sex. As in, none. I like threesomes and moresomes, and I like het. I'm glad to have written this piece, and I hope to write more of those things in the future. I'm also pleased with Jennifer in this. I knew from the beginning that it had to be her POV and I think that it worked really well with the story I wanted to tell. Anyway, I'm pleased with how it turned out and I hope I end up writing more of these three. They're quite lovely together.

Warmth, A Divine Intervention, Team gen, PG-ish, ~3500 words.

There was a big Rodney!whump theme in the fest this year; I haven't read all the fics so far, but a good number of the early ones I read were h/c where Rodney got hurt. This is sort of in that vein, though I tried to make it mostly about the comfort (team snuggling is a personal favorite). I really planned to write McShep; somehow the team just kept butting its head in, and I decided if it was really going to be McShep, then it'd have to be in the sequel. I love the VE, though it's not the biggest part of this; I love what Rodney did (and how many episodes I had to research to get my facts right). I had a lot of really excellent ideas for porn, too, just not enough time to write them. Maybe later.

Basement cat has infiltrated heaven, werecat!John/Rodney, G, ~1200 words.

I started a super-angsty h/c fic that whumped the hell out of werecat!John and Rodney for this prompt and I got several thousand words into it before I realized it was simply too big to finish in the time available to me. So I dumped that and started this ridiculously lolzy fic (and then, when cleaning up my writing folders for 2012, promptly deleted the first one /o\). I almost asked them to post it anonymously, I was so embarrassed. I shouldn't have been; it's gotten the most comments of all three fics, despite taking the least amount of time to write, having the least words and lowest rating, and being the crackiest. It's the popular pairing; if I ever needed a reminder that any fic featuring John and Rodney is going to be more widely-read than any other pairing in SGA, this fic served that purpose nicely. I don't generally do humor (or not particularly well, I think), but rereading it, I do sort of love it, in a weird cracky way. John as a ruffled black cat will never not be funny.

Atlantis Big Bang is live! :D :D :D

It's been a ridiculous day and night of coding and juggling and uploading stuff but it is sooooooooooo worth it! :D

I wrote Truth, Justice, and the Lantean Way, which is about 1/3 porn, and clocked in at 67,271 words, and I got SO MUCH GOOD STUFF OMG.

strivaria made an amazing courtroom sketch,

gblvr made awesome comics-style art and the perfect fanmix, and

omg_wtf_yeah made me a gorgeous cover.

Seriously, I am so ridiculously happy (and completely punch drunk). I have no idea how I got so lucky. ♥_♥

We saw Priest tonight. I am still thinking about it, so no post, but feel free to ask me about it if you like (I'm not likely to post, honestly - there's no real strong feelings or enough thinky thoughts to make it worthwhile).

However, I did write fic. Because Karl Urban and Paul Bettany and brotherly love and all that.

Temptation, Priest/Black Hat, ~650 words, R for sexual themes.

Should I write again, it will probably be curtain!fic with Paul Bettany and Maggie Q, but I'd really rather someone else wrote that for me. Anyone?

5 Ingredient Fics

So remember when I asked for ingredient lists?

I actually wrote them all. Seriously, all of them. Except

auburn's because hers was just a beautiful transliteration of epic fic to recipe, one too perfect for a tiny little fic, so I'm going to reproduce it here for you all to appreciate.

2 cups of world building
1 cup of character development
1/2 cup of creamed romance
1/4 cup angst
1 plot* (1 mcguffin may be substituted)

Sift dry ingredients for inconsistencies and then mix together in a large format with plot, blend, then add romance and angst (to taste). Write vigorously then allow to rise until first draft is finished, then have beta punch it down. Shape story into desired form and allow to rise again before posting.

* Some plots may be larger than others and require additional world building to achieve proper consistency.

Serve with fan art and fan mix as side dishes.

Also, I handed out a few ingredient lists, and

wolfshark wrote What Rodney Would Do for a crazy list including raspberries, cake, piercings, taffeta, sunglasses.

( Stuff I wrote (SGA, Star Trek, LOTRIPS, VG) )

auburn, I may write your fic someday, but since Impromptu has taken me three years so far, I think you're going to be waiting a while.

If anyone else wants to get in on the fun, go ahead and leave me an ingredient list or ask for one of your own!

P.S. I started writing up this entry less than a week after I posted the Five Ingredient Fic requests.

spillingvelvet's just took this long to write. I like it, and I'm doggedly finishing my WIPs this year, so this is the first one off my plate. I'll post the other fics to the AO3 tomorrow (

gblvr and

beachlass's are already there). <3

Maybe three. Or four!

1. Today's

solstice_calendar is locked, so if you want to see the recipe, you will actually have to join the community (instead of just subscribing). No biggie if you don't want to, but no obligation if you do join - really, really. And you can always UN-join later.

2. I finally put Four Funerals and a Wedding up on the AO3. I hope the new formatting is helping SOMEBODY out, because it sure is a pain in my ass. Clearly my section markers are not good section markers, they screw things up every damn time.

3. Secret Santa started today at work. It's $1 gifts for four days, and then a $15 gift on Friday. These people do not understand the meaning of $1, let me tell you. It's pretty freaking annoying to those of us who actually stick to the monetary values we're supposed to. We look like massive cheapskates. (The gift I got was more like a $5 gift, so that's nice, but... but... (ugh, I'm so sorry to be a scrooge).)

4. Inlaw function yesterday was relatively painless (fun, actually) and got us home with several pounds of cheese, chorizo, wine, crackers, and other goodies, as well as a bit of cash tucked into some books. All that and a pleasant visit with the sister-in-law, which was quite nice.

Oooh, and 5. My brother is sick. I hate it when he's sick (almost as much as he does). Any good home remedies for colds besides chicken soup?

So,

sabinetzin hosted A Ficathon Walks Into A Bar, and the Master List has gone up!

I wrote a ~2000 word fic for the prompt "Reid walks into a bar and meets... Hardison!" called The Clusterfuck Job, which is rough around the edges because I wrote it in a single afternoon at the absolutely last second, but I still sort of like it anyway.

Some that I've read and have liked:

zillah975 wrote Hope, Ronon Dex and Boromir meeting in a dream bar. Really nice feel for these characters.

demonqueen666 wrote One Drink to Forget, Another to Remember, Topher from Dollhouse and Snape meeting in a very unusual bar. This is one of my faves from the fest so far.

Cedara wrote Clandestine Meetings, Spencer Reid meets Mozzie in a bar. The premise is brilliant, the execution less so, but it's nice to think about.

596spark wrote At the Bookshop, Crowley meets Willow in a bookshop. Nice execution; Willow is a little spread for me (at times, she seems season six-ish, others, season two) but still a good premise and nicely written.

I've only read six, so reccing four of them is a pretty impressive ratio! Go forth and read crossovers! There's a a collection on AO3, too, though I don't think it's complete (as the Master List obviously is).

Oh, and since this is going to be a regular thing (YAY), join

intoabar or

intoabar if you're wanting to play next time.

So, I think about Rodney every single time someone mentions our APL (applied physics lab) that does top secret work and has major DOD and DARPA funding. John's a little tougher to shoehorn into my workspace, and I got through 1500 words of boring-ass 'this is what I do in a day' and 'aren't those PIs funny/exasperating/amazing/awful' before I realized there is no plot to be had here. It's more than a scene, but seriously, I don't have the interest to try and make this into any more than it is.

John/Rodney, appearances by most of the military cast and mention of Carson.

SGA goes to Johns Hopkins and applies for a grant

Take your fandom to work day produced one of my favorite fics ever,

toomuchplor's Tactus which is EXACTLY what it felt like to be in conservatory. It's brilliant.

Anybody else feel like taking fandom to work with them?
