What I wrote this year!
Jan. 1st, 2013 05:41 pmThis year was actually a pretty good year-in-fic for me - I wrote just under 8000 words (which is a lot more than I wrote in 2011, heh) and 5 stories in total.
In October, I wrote one story for the Kaleidoscope 2012 Exchange:
Title: The Teahouse
Fandom: Throne of the Crescent Moon - Saladin Ahmed (and if you like fantasy, you should definitely read this book, too!)
Glimpses of Adoulla's life, after everything is over. This is post-book fic, and does contain a few spoilers as a result. This was written for Rhi, who asked for Adoulla opening a teashop.
In December, I wrote three stories for![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
yuletide and one story for the hh_sugarquill Secret Santa exchange:
Yuletide
Main assignment:
Title: Aftermath
Fandom: Outlander - Diana Gabaldon
Jamie and John on the road, after Jamie 'kidnaps' him at the end of An Echo in the Bone. They talk. This was written for Marien.
Pinch hit:
Title: With You By My Side
Fandom: Journey (PS3 game)
A traveller makes his first journey, and finds someone to share it with. This was written for Moonsheen, who asked for a story about a young and inexperienced traveller meeting an older traveller.
Treat:
Title: Rebirth
Fandom: Journey (PS3 game)
Two red cloaks travel together to the mountain. When one is reborn without her friend, will she ever find him again? This was written for Tanrien, who asked for a story about two players meeting and going the way together, and about what happens at the mountain before the players return to the beginning.
Sugarquill Secret Santa
Title: Children of the Revolution
Fandom: Harry Potter/Moulin Rouge fusion
James Potter is a boy pretending to be a man. Teddy Lupin is just trying to hide. What happens when their paths cross at the Moulin Rouge? This was written for![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
etacanis, who asked for AU angsty fic and gave a Moulin Rouge song as a prompt.

Yuletide recs!
Dec. 29th, 2012 06:04 pmFirst of all, this was the fic I received for Yuletide:
Remixed (Pitch Perfect) - When a new a capella group emerges on the BU campus, both the Bellas and the Treblemakers find themselves in a difficult position. Will they be able to deal with this upstart rival in the world of a capella, and how will they do it?
I was so happy to get Pitch Perfect fic! This is a really sweet story, with the Bellas and Treblemakers teaming up to face off a rival group, and there are lots of little jokes between the characters, just like in canon :)
~~
( 9 recs in 10 fandoms: Anne of Green Gables, Ballet Shoes, Black Books, Discworld, Never Mind the Buzzcocks RPF, Pitch Perfect, Sabrina the Teenage Witch, Uncharted, West Wing/Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter )
Anybody have any other favourites to rec me?

Apr. 22nd, 2012 11:49 pmCame across this site today as a result of a Globe and Mail article. It's basically a website that tries to catalogue all the little details of books and cross-catalogue them - so for example, you could find out any book that mentions or features Greta Garbo, or a particular street in Edinburgh, or whatever. But it also means you can detail check small elements of any book in their database - and add details for books if they're not in there already.
I think this could be an amazing resource for fanfic writers, and probably academics too... I just made an account!
