End of year fic meme
Dec. 30th, 2011 04:03 pmI was going to do one, then decided I am too lazy and too tired to do it. Instead I am going to focus on New Year's resolutions and coming up with a writing plan. I didn't make my personal writing goal of 2011, but I came out of it with a very respectable 570,000 words which is 65k more than I wrote in 2010.
The short version is that 2011 was a year of pushing my boundaries, fanfic-wise. I wrote a full-length RPS fic for the![[profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
spn_j2_bigbang, and it was also the year that I ventured into writing m/m slash, thanks to Hawaii Five-0.
I want to do more writing in 2012, get my momentum going again now that I won't be taking trips or moving or doing anything else that will require lots of mental energy on the house front. We shall see. I'd also like to go back to my original fic, see if I can't ignite some sparks there as well.
There will be plenty of other resolutions, too, but none of them involve writing and therefore are of limited interest to the people who read this journal, I'm sure.
As you may have noticed, I have been posting everything to Dreamwidth lately and crossposting to LJ. This is because LJ shows no signs of correcting their fuckery with the latest updates, so I'm making sure things are backed up elsewhere. I am letting all my paid accounts & extra icons lapse, because I don't see the point in financially supporting a service that not only ignores its userbase, but in some cases is actually insulting to them.

ratherastory journal is staying put, but I'm going to try to avoid having to import my content to DW, since I forget often and when I do the wait times are quite long.
The one thing that's a little irksome is that the master posts of my fiction all link back to my LJ entries, so I will have to go in and fix all those links by hand eventually. Eesh.
