5, 19, 21, 25? -nads 💕

5. most popular fic this year

according to the ao3 stats it is gladly beyond any experience, but somewhere you feel free is coming up on a pretty close second in terms of comments/bookmarks/etc.

19. any new fics to start next year

I've been kinda feeling burnt out this past week (but that's mostly bc work, these things do have an ebb and flow for me), but I don't know if I'll put out anything I haven't mentioned before, pre-existing story premises only for now... the p & p au will get written eventually...and the more I think about it, the more I want to try a Jenate & Dair post-series fic (with a dash of musicians!Humphreys my beloved)

21. most memorable comment/review

anytime anyone gives a comment in which they quote something I want to kiss them. I actually reread comments a LOT both before & after replying especially when I'm feeling stuck like I have this week (and shoutout to @nevertothethird for all the splendiferous essay comments on "somewhere you feel free")...that being said, I got a comment on Outtake: kill the lights and kiss my eyes (the pegging fic) in which a kind person called me "the smut queen" and I think about that two times a week

25. a fic you read this year you would recommend everyone read

okay, well, everything you write, for starters Nads 💕💕💕

and I'm going to rec Ivy's it's not the end (it's an uncomfortable pause). It's heavy, but so artfully done, and thoughtfully constructed, and I can feel the care for the characters in it. And I fancy myself a bit of an Alison apologist, so reading an Alison POV is always fascinating to me. but for real, it's so heavy and hard but there's also these moments of sparkle that just balance it out perfectly.

fanfic end of the year asks!
