2013 in fanfic review
Jan. 1st, 2014 04:30 pmI didn't do any of these last year because my Mom was in the hospital and I had other things on my mind. This year is off to a far better start, so:
In 2013, mayachain finally switched her LJ name from ms_jvh_shuh to, well, mayachain, which had been her pen name everywhere else. She also posted some fanfic: twenty-nine fanfic posts total, of which there were twenty-two one-shots, six new parts to the birthday!verse, one drabble set in Bridges!verse. Two of the one shots were 14valentines contributions and the very ast one was for Yuletide.
The total word count of 2013 amounts to ~ 33500 words, which is ~1500 more than 2011 and almost twice of 2012's meagre ~18000. A lot of this is due to the huge amount of wip-finishing I managed to do during mini_nano. The word count range spans from 100 to 7770 words.
mayachain wrote in eleven different fandoms, four of which she had never written in before: eight for Stargate:Atlantis, seven for Harry Potter, five for the X-Men Movieverse, three for Inception and one for Anne of Green Gables, Scandinavian Fairytales, Teen Wolf, Vorkosigan Saga and Haven respectively. The dent made into the pile of w.i.p.s is freeing, although there is no lack of bunnies.
Despite the subject matter I had the most fun writing Residue. It was written in one go, as wasand in the hard place there was you and most of a fire horn for your journey. I'm especially proud of The troll that carried not its heart in its chest and Special Broadcast: For Remembrance (with Mine to shape and to belong and Our blessings one by one as runners-up, as well as a special mention going to 2012's remix' Ancient Missiles). Agents of any movement was perhaps the most challenging of them all. And finally, I cannot state enough what a relief it is to finally have posted Paradox (seven years in the making) On this journey your only heart (five years). ("Blessings" was four.)
So what will 2014 bring? Hopefully a healthier family overall, professional accomplishment, personal happiness and, of course, lots of writing! Wishing this (plus happy reading) for all her readers as well,
