Stolen from

arianne_maya. I meant to post this for New Years and didn't get time but I still wanted to do it so here it is, a bit late. :)

Completed fics 2012 : 18. I'm counting my drabbles because I love drabbles and it totally counts as fic. :P

Total word count: 18968 says AO3. :)

What's your favorite story this year? Not the most popular, but the one that makes you the happiest? A Glint of Light on Broken Glass (and sequel: Don't Tell Me the Moon is Shining). Possibly my favourite things I have ever written and I can't wait to explore this verse more. I love that Adam and my OMC for it so much. <3

Okay, NOW your most popular story. A Glint of Light on Broken Glass judging by kudos and comments. :)

Story most under-appreciated by the universe? I think my fics got what appreciation they deserved this year, but I'll say Recalibration. Adam/Terrance fic isn't getting enough appreciation in general to be honest!

Story that could have been better? Grinding Is the Most Fun A Guy Can Have Without Taking His Clothes Off. I just feel like the characters are a bit off and I spent hours trying to figure out why with the help of beta and in the end I gave up. It still irks me though. :P

Sexiest Story? Probably When I Get Down On My Knees, It's Not To Pray. I was actually pleasantly surprised by it, I'm rarely very happy with my smut.

Most fun story? I'm not sure about fun, but Love, Actually made me smile as I wrote and still does. :)

Story with the single sweetest moment? A Smile Is A Thing That Straightens Most Things. I just love when Adam gets taken care of, and I'm really happy with how the feel of it turned out. :)

Story with the best “yes that’s it” characterization? Don't Tell Me The Moon Is Shining. As some commenters have pointed out, I myself love how the contradiction of the independent human Adam we know and a submissive beta Adam are at odds with one another, but how under the circumstances (with an Alpha that will cherish his want of independence) he ends up finding peace with what he is. Again, I am looking forward to playing more with this verse in 2013.

Hardest story to write: Walk, Run, Fall. Kind of self-explanatory, really? It was my first fic in a new fandom, I rarely write noncon fic and my brain somehow thought it would be a great idea to fill a gang rape prompt. But in the end, I am really pleased with how it turned out and I'm happy I challenged myself to do it. :)

Do you have any fan-fic goal for the new year? I've set myself a word-count goal of at least 50,000 words. I'm hoping to complete some more challenges and bingos this year, maybe participate more actively in glam-100 and just generally I have promised myself to post at least a fic a month. I also want to wrap up my uncompleted series.

First lines of all my fics this year (because this looked like a fun thing to do :)):

Adam knew he was in trouble the first time he kissed Tommy. (x)

Adam is always nervous before these events. (x)

Sauli sat silently on the bed, watching Adam pace. And pace. And pace. (x)

I guess it's finally time to tell you... (x)

“Don’t make a sound...” (x)

Pressure, too much pressure. (x)

The smell of alpha hangs thick in the air when Adam enters the club, makes his need spike as he pushes through mingling bodies to get to the bar. (x)

It’s a little weird, strutting onstage in front of the crowd of bodies he used to be part of. (x)

Ray can’t sleep. (x)

Harry tested his bonds yet again, finding just like the other times that he wasn’t going to be able to get free. (x)

Harry is not ashamed to admit that he cried the first time he held his daughter. (x)

Harry really believes he does pretty good at acting normal. (x)

Louis is not sure if it’s easier or harder now that he knows. (x)

“I feel like this isn’t fair to you,” Harry blurts one evening while they are cuddled on the sofa in front of a film. (x)

Adam lasts about two weeks. (x)

Nick didn’t do relationships. (x)

Harry sighs and picks up his phone again. (x)

He had seen the opportunity so he ran. (x)
