How many words have you written this year?
It's not easy to measure, but I've grabbed a few of the files I've worked the most on; 151k. Not counting anything other than fanfic.
How many works did you publish this year?
4...
What work are you most proud of?
My most recent is definitely the best. It's only one main plotline, there's a couple B-Plots that people with reading comprehension can follow but that aren't necessary, there's proper punctuation. It's good.
What work of yours has the most hits?
'Manaria, could you please do me a favor? Die for me' It's not even close.
What work got more feedback than expected?
The one above here ^^^. People were far more interested and engaged than I am used to, though it changes per fandom.
Favorite title you used?
I don't think I have a favourite, they're all pretty aptly named. I guess 'The Perfect Piece' has another meaning as it's a music themed fic, but the musician is performing against their will to be the 'perfect' whatever, and being only a piece can be considered an imperfection in itself.
If you use song lyrics, which artist did you use the most?
I can't recall using song lyrics that I didn't make myself. Maybe Cavetown?
Pairing you wrote the most for this year?
I don't tend to do shipping, I'm ace myself.
Favorite pairing you wrote for this year?
Tie between Rae Taylor/Claire Francois and Sokka/Zuko.
What work was quickest to write?
Unreleased: A quick insight to Caitlin Snow (Flash CW) in the months between the particle accelerator explosion and Barry waking up. Basically a couple missing scenes showing her mourning her fiance.
Released: M.I.A. Mall.
What work took the longest to write?
The one I'm publishing at the moment took 6 months (The Royal Oracle). Then there's one I left on a break that took half of this year and half of last year (Ariana Griande's no good bad day).
How many WIPs do you have for next year?
Probably 2-4. Most of my WIPs do not survive long enough or are deemed to not be worth the investment of revising.
What's your longest work of the year?
That would be 'Manaria, could you please do me a favor? Die for me', at 37k words.
What's your shortest work of the year?
'Bending Relationships' coming in at a modest 2,9k.
What WIP are you taking into the next year?
Well, the one I'm uploading is finished, so not 'The Royal Oracle'.
Instead it's likely I'm continuing 'Ariana Griande's NGBD' or a new fic centering a character I made for a oneshot that demanded a fic of their own and proceeded to blow my mind away with amazing politics.
What is your most common 'Additional Tag' tag?
Oof, calling me out a little. 'Kidnapping'..
Your favorite character to write this year?
I recently got a new favorite, but she's not beating out the hotshot of the rest of the year, so Pearlescentmoon!
The character that gave you the most trouble writing:
Sokka, it'd been too long since seeing him when I started writing.
What's one pairing you want to explore next year?
Not a specific pairing so much as a dynamic. Parent&Child, toxic as I can make it without making it obvious that it's doomed to fail.
Which of your own work have you reread the most?
Probably 'The Royal Oracle'. I gave that thing multiple runs through for just one detail alone, and went down a list of things to check that way.
How much kudos did you get total this year?
290!
Which work has the most comments?
'Manaria, could you please do me a favor? Die for me', coming in with 45 comments total.
Did you write any gifts this year?
Yes, 'Bending Relationships' (ATLA) was a gift to a dear friend.
Did you receive any gifts this year?
Nope!
Did you do any collaborative works this year?
Nope!
What's your most common category?
A blank is most common, I don't tend to write shipping.
What do you listen to while writing?
Most often it is nothing at all, sometimes I'll put on a 'Mock The Week' as you can zone out and not miss anything important.
Favorite work you wrote this year?
My most recent, 'The Royal Oracle'.
Favorite line/passage you wrote?
Even split between 'Beauty is everywhere where you dare to look.' and 'Note to self, milk chocolate and chocolate milk are not the same thing. Second note, boiling chocolate milk cannot be left untreated.'
Biggest surprise while writing this year?
I had a background character (not the one mentioned earlier) who decided that it deserved its own work, and now their work is taking precedence over the one they originated from, which is quite the power move in my opinion.
