2019 Writer’s Year in Review

Tagged by @chyrstis! Thank you so much. I’ve seen a few of these, and thought about doing one. Of course, I’m also not wanting to because I haven’t really tracked anything, or done much writing. 

Word count:

32607 (according to AO3) 

Like I said, I did not do any tracking this year. Though I did write some things that were not published. So, it might be a smidge higher.

Number of smut scenes:

Three that were posted. I don’t know if there are any others that might have wandered around out there, or in my WIPs.

This was a very weird year for me.

New things I tried this year:

While like @chyrstis, I’m not sure this counts, it’s about all I really tried that was new: I wandered into a new fandom after falling in love with Far Cry 5, though I don’t do it justice. My focus is not currently what it has been in the past. I’d really like to write more, and I’d really like to branch into other ships in that fandom, but I cannot work it around in my head.

Favorite thing I wrote this year:

I think my favorite thing I’ve written this year is Interrupted Interlude. I really had fun writing it, and feel like I did @alyssalenko‘s manips justice ... all three of them.

Favorite fic I read this year:

I wish I mentioned more fics, maybe that’s something I could focus on too this year. 

I’ve loved @no-droids Mandalorian series. Rough Day is the first. It’s a great series of absolutely wonderful smut. 

There was also Give Up the Chase by amcam. A wonderfully written smutty piece that I stumbled across while reading through some new tags. 

But I honestly haven’t read a lot of fics. I’m horrible about that. Though I do try to always remember to leave comments or kudos. 

Writing goals for 2020:

First and foremost, I’ve set a goal to write 100 words per day (would it be horrible to claim this post as my words for today?). 

Second, I want to finish Unshakable Duty. I recently started a replay of Dragon Age 2 and am seeing some holes that appear in the story I’ve laid out. 

Also, I want to start writing some of the original fiction ideas that I’ve been hanging onto for years and years. 

There are other things I would love to try for. Some of these include: participating in Nanowrimo in November, doing the Camp Nano, maybe signing up for the Mass Effect Big Bang this spring, finishing First Watch of the Night and/or Solitude: Before I See, maybe looking into publishing some of my original fiction, and being consistent in my revision and my writing. I think I might also bring back my monthly progress and reflection posts.

Tagging: @joufancyhuh, @alyssalenko, @ma-sulevin, and @inuy21 and anyone else that might be interested!
