2021 Year End Round-up

This is the first year in a long time I’ve only written in one fandom (hello, The Witcher!). But the material is so interesting, and the fandom so engaging, that I’ve really enjoyed myself. So thank you for being wonderful.

Geralt was my most-written-about character this year (13 fics), followed by Lambert (11). Most written-about relationship was Geralt/Eskel (5 fics), followed by Aiden/Lambert (4), but I did write about quite a variety of characters and relationships this year. Shout out to Coen and Istredd, who I had a lot of fun playing with in 2021 and hope to see more of in 2022. 

Almost half my word count (107, 937) was co-written with @bittylildragon for our series A Knight’s Guide to Courting Witchers, which I would never have thought up on my own!

Word count: 222,173 Total works: 26 Total works written for The Witcher Flash Fic Challenge: 12
