Fic-meme 2007

I see everybody doing memes and yearly reviews. As you may or may not not I`m a lemming, I`ll have to join in. :)
This little fanfic meme is snagged from
dotfic and since this year I`ve actually written a few pieces, I`ll give it a try.
Stories posted: 15
(the larger ones are counted as one)
Stories written: 3-4 in hibernation so around 18-19
Fandoms: All Supernatural + RPS
My favorite story this year (of my own): I can`t decide. Seriously can`t. I love some one-shot like Sammy-Stamp of Approval just as much as I love a multi-parter like Grapes or my current project. They`re like children. *over-dramatic chorus swells to crescendo*
My best story this year: This is hard to say because I can edit my stuff till the dawn of time and still not be happy but I think the most well-rounded one came out:
Grapes of Wrath and other Forbidden Fruit
Story most underappreciated by the universe, in my opinion: This is an even harder question because it can easily read as "wah, that was so brilliant so why the fuck didn`t I get 250 comments on it?" Which is not what I`m getting at here. At all. I just believe every author has a story they had fun in writing and somehow that didn`t translate for many, many valid reasons.
Mine is: Hidden Treasures
(I do like Consequences, my first attempt at longish fic but I`m the FIRST person who will admit that it reads very sketchy and uneven and maybe I`m a tiny bit glad not that many people read it :-p)
Most fun story: I think that should be most fun story to write, yeah? Okay, again I`ll have to go with Hidden Treasures. I giggled while writing it.
Most sexy story: Heh, since my porny barbarians ended up less naughty than I imagined, I`ll have to go with Grapes here as well.
Story with single sexiest moment: *scratches head* Once more Grapes had the actual sex in it. *g* But my personal sexiest moment in that story? Jared and Jensen kissing while Jensen`s glasses slip down between their mouths and the reaction to it. I loved my cheesy little sexy moment. *cuddles*
Most unintentionally *telling* story: I think the fact that I choose out-there premises as much as possible is telling insofar that I shy away from any autobiographical tendencies. Maybe Weapon of Choice is the closest to actually having some stuff from my childhood in it.
"Holy crap, that's *wrong*, even for you" story: When I started with Comes a Horseman I thought "that`s it", that`s pushing the envelope six miles over the line. But now? I think I can go crazier. Wait for my next big ficcie. *g*
Hardest story to write: Yeah, the long ones are hard because you hit brick walls ever so often and just by sheer quantity it takes a while to get everything down but harder yet were two shorties.
Guardian and A Bond of Steel
Just because I loved the ideas but didn`t know how to get them done.
Easiest story to write: Dreams are made of cheese, hands down. Seriously, that was done in under 30 minutes. And I was expecting it to look just like it. Was dumbstruck at the response, never thought it would kick of a whole verse. For some reasons the sequels take a bit longer to write. Hm.
This year's theme and the story that demonstrates it most: If there IS a theme in between schmoopy Kidfic, angsty Kidfic, schmoopy RPS-stories and angsty-porny RPS, it is a story I have yet to write. Sorry but I`m theme-less so far. *hangs head*

Date: 2007-12-27 08:28 pm (UTC)klingt gut *g* Auch J²?
(no subject)
Date: 2007-12-27 08:37 pm (UTC)Zu 99 % ja. Ich hab Dean/Sam überlegt aber selbst im AU sollten die ihre gewohnten Charaktere behalten und das würde nicht so ganz passen. J2 ist freier wobei Jensen zur Abwechslung aber mal nicht die Unschuld vom Lande sein soll. *g*
(no subject)
Date: 2007-12-27 08:46 pm (UTC)*g* Ich glaube, das ist einer der Gründe, warum es so wenig SPN AUs gibt: Weil man den Incest nicht loswerden kann, ohne die Charaktere zu verlieren.

Wie? Was? Was ist passiert? Haben dich die Pod People übernommen? *g*
Und wird's wieder was Episches?
Was macht den das Grapes Sequel, btw? Liegt das auf Eis?
(no subject)
Date: 2007-12-27 09:05 pm (UTC)Hee. Keine Angst, er wird in anderen Stories zurückkomen. :) Nur für diese Idee muß ich ein bißchen mehr auf den mürrischen Jensen zurückgreifen und ich will`s ja auch nicht zum trope machem.
Und wird's wieder was Episches?
Definiere "episch". :D Aber ich rechne da schon mit mehreren Kapiteln.

Von den guten Absichten her, nein, vom Schreiben im Moment ja. Neben Horseman muß ich schnell noch meine fairytale fic fertig machen, die schon obszön spät dran ist (eigentlich war der 15.10. Stichtag) aber die Challenge Comm ist immer noch
offen, wohl weil auch der Mod ihre Story noch nicht gepostet hat. *G*
Danach wird das Grapes-Sequel fertig geschrieben. Und dann hab ich noch 2 Million Ideen und Projekte. Ich versteh gar nicht, wie jemand schreiben möchte aber nach plot bunnies sucht. Das Problem hab ich nie, ich bräuchte eher viel mehr Disziplin zum Schreiben.

In deiner Sprache: mehrere 5000-Wort Kapitel *g*
:D Aber ich rechne da schon mit mehreren Kapiteln.
*freu* Wie immer: Falls du noch nen Beta suchst... und es noch mit mir aushälst, schick rüber.

*g* das ist wirklich.. spät. Aber naja, im Grund stört das selten jemand, oder? Hauptsache die Fic taucht auf.
Btw, nur um dich schonmal vorzuwarnen: Ich hab seit drei Tagen eine wunderbare Erkältung - und die Hoffnung aufgegeben, dass die bis Sonntag weg ist : ( Wenn du lieber später kommen willst - oder ich dir nen anderen Schlafplatz besorgen soll, schrei! (wenn's dich nicht stört, stört's mich auch nicht.)

Also mich stört`s auch nicht. Aber sag ruhig Bescheid wenn du lieber den Sonntag die Tür zumauern und ins Bett kriechen willst. :)

Naja, momentan kann ich halbwegs schlafen, insofern sollte es schon gehen. Ich hoffe einfach, dass es nicht mehr schlimmer wird - aber in dem Fall würde ich schreien, keine Angst *g*
