This list is exactly identical to last year's list. My motivation to write, which has been fairly low the last couple of years, hit an all-time low last year, which I, again, attribute to my time-consuming college programming classes. Later this year, when summer rolls around and I am (hopefully) done with my AS, I may find my inspiration again.
As always, I encourage—no, beg!—those of you who enjoy my writing to, well, encourage me to write, or send me ideas for my WIPs!
The fics that I have on my to-write list, in the most likely order of my working on them, are below the cut.
"Lock and Key" (Frozen mAU (Domestic Assassin), Snow Sisters, fully outlined, 3 chapters posted)
To get back at Elsa for missing a planned sisterly get-together, Anna hides all of the coffee in the house. Chaos ensues, as Elsa tries everything up to and including foam dart guns to get the key to the coffee from Anna.
The Calm After the Storm, chapter 12 (Frozen canon!verse, Snow Sisters/Kristanna/Frohana/Frangled, partially complete)
The final chapter, still incomplete. In Jan '16, I got some helpful writing advice from @azaholmesly on the story, but I shamefully let it gather dust. As soon as "Lock and Key" is done, I'd really like to finish this and get it off my list.
"To See Her Smile" (Frozen canon!verse, Kristanna, not outlined or started)
Hurt/comfort fic. Anna has a nightmare, and Kristoff reaches her before Elsa does. (May work this idea around one or both of the Anna Weekend prompts.)
"Bus Stop" (Frozen mAU (Heiress), Kristanna, 1 chapter posted)
Like the song by The Hollies, a romance that begins at a bus stop. Semi-wealthy heiress Anna Aren runs out to the bus without her umbrella, and it starts raining. A tall, blond stranger rescues her, and agrees to help her out for the day, leading to a budding relationship. As with "A Warm Place", this will go little further than fluff and cuddles.
"Untitled" ('verse not decided, Frohana, not outlined or started)
Anna is having a bad day, so a very busy Elsa assigns Kristoff to try and lift her spirits. Don't have a clear plot for it just yet. (Suggested by @karis-the-fangirl, who asked for Kristoff solving a problem.)
"If-Then-Elsa" (either DA!verse or Sitcom on the Wire, no ideas yet)
(I'm tempted to go with DA!verse featuring "Ruth" here, because maybe she's also a bit of a hacker, like her namesake...? :P)
"Assassin's Treed" (Frozen mAU (Domestic Assassin), no ideas yet)
(Because Elsa's always winding up sniping from trees, and when my phone suggested "Creed" after typing "assassin", this title idea popped in there.)
"Rock the Frozen Heart" (Frozen mAU, not outlined or started)
Modern AU where Anna and Elsa (and possibly Kristoff) have their own rock group, based at least partially on real-life group Heart. (Headcanon explained in more detail here.)
"Untitled" (Frozen canon!verse, not outlined or started)
Since opening her door for good, Elsa has had trouble finding her way around the castle, to the point of getting lost on the way to meetings. (Headcanon from here and here.)
If anyone wants to shoot me ideas, for those fics that aren't outlined and have only a skeleton plot, or just to jump-start my muses, feel free to reply or PM me! My inbox is ALWAYS OPEN. 😉
This list is (to no one's surprise) all but identical to the old list. It will probably stay that way, seeing as my motivation to write has been fairly low over the last year or so, which I attribute mostly to college. 😅 (Feel free to bug me to write any of these, or offer me ideas!)
edit 3/27/18: Added several additional fic ideas to the bottom of the list, and as such need to put this under a read more.
The fics that I have planned to start and/or finish writing this year, in the most likely order of my working on them, are:
"Lock and Key" (Frozen mAU (Domestic Assassin), Snow Sisters, fully outlined, 3 chapters posted)

"The Watch Cat" (Frozen mAU (Domestic Assassin), Snow Sisters/Kristanna, partially outlined, not started)
One of Elsa's cats is very fat, and likes to perch on the roof over the front porch, which weirds Kristoff out. Entering the house, though, he realizes that it's really not unusual, considering what the other cats do. (Suggested by @hathor-frozen. Got some good ideas for this one so far: Elsa playing with a cat's paw, like that cat video that went around a while back (@hathor-frozen); Elsa jokingly telling Anna that she's taught the cats how to snipe; cats sitting in odd locations (e.g., on top of chair-backs, like @frozenartscapes' cat). May be a good fic to write something more about Elsa's coworker Ruth; maybe she likes to cat-sit?)
"To See Her Smile" (Frozen canon!verse, Kristanna, not outlined or started)
Hurt/comfort fic. Anna has a nightmare, and Kristoff reaches her before Elsa does. (May work this idea around one or both of the Anna Weekend prompts.)

Once again, this list is virtually identical to the old list. (And will probably stay that way, since the only times I've actually gotten anything written are before classes, and over the weekends, and then only in short bursts. 😅 (Feel free to bug me to write any of these, and be specific!*)
The fics that I have planned to start (and/or finish) writing in the next three to four months, in the likely order of my working on them, are:
"Lock and Key" (Frozen DA!verse, Snow Sisters, fully outlined, 2 chapters posted)
To get back at Elsa for missing a planned sisterly get-together, Anna hides all of the coffee in the house. Chaos ensues, as Elsa tries everything up to and including foam dart guns to get the key to the coffee from Anna.
"To See Her Smile" (Frozen canon!verse, Kristanna, not outlined or started)

The Calm After the Storm, chapter 12 (Frozen canon!verse, Snow Sisters/Kristanna/Frohana/Frangled, partially complete)
Final chapter for now. In Jan '16, I got some helpful writing advice from @pl-i on the story, so I hope to get back to it soon.
If anyone wants to shoot me ideas, for those fics that aren't outlined and have only a skeleton plot, feel free to reply or PM me!* 😉
(* I'm quite serious—my muses and/or motivation are often absent. Send me things!!)
Meet the new list—(mostly the) same as the old list! Though, with a month off from school-related things (FINALLY!), I may have time to work on some of these. Then, it'll be back to the grindstone. 😔 (Feel free to bug me to write one of these, and be specific!*)
The fics that I have planned to start (and/or finish) writing in the next three to four months, in the likely order of my working on them, are:
"Untitled" (Frozen Shardsverse, Elsarik, not outlined or started)
No (concrete) ideas yet. One (or possibly more) short fics/drabbles, set in Searlait's Shardsverse alternate canon, for Twelve Days of Elsarik 2016. (It will depend greatly on whether I can find my writing muses in the next twelve days...)
"To See Her Smile" (Frozen canon!verse, Kristanna, not outlined or started)
Hurt/comfort fic. Anna has a nightmare, and Kristoff reaches her before Elsa does.
"Bus Stop" (Frozen modern AU, Kristanna, 1 chapter posted)
Like the song by The Hollies, a romance that begins at a bus stop. Semi-wealthy heiress Anna Aren runs out to the bus without her umbrella, and it starts raining.

(* I'm quite serious—my muses and motivation are often absent. Send me things!!)
As with the previous list, much of this is the same as before. With school being my top priority at the moment, very little of this is likely to be written anytime soon.
The fics that I have planned to start (and/or finish) writing in the next three to four months, in the likely order of my working on them, are:
"Untitled" (Shardsverse AU, Elsarik, not started)
Short fic based on a headcanon I wrote for @couragedontdesertme, that I am thinking of writing for TDoE. Elsa works really really late on paperwork one night. Alarik, for whatever reason, decides to retire early from his work in the lab, and finds Elsa asleep at her desk. Despite her sleepy protests ("wanna finish"), Alarik carries her to their room and puts her to bed, whispering "Sweet dreams, min älskling" before crawling in with her.
"Lock and Key" (Frozen DA!verse, Snow Sisters, fully outlined, 2 chapters posted)
To get back at Elsa for missing a planned sisterly get-together, Anna hides all of the coffee in the house. Chaos ensues, as Elsa tries everything up to and including foam dart guns to get the key to the coffee from Anna.

The Calm After the Storm, chapter 12 (Frozen canon!verse, Snow Sisters/Kristanna/Frohana/Frangled, partially complete)
Final chapter for now. In January, I got some helpful writing advice from @sparkysparky-boomlady on the story, so I hope to get back to it soon.
"Untitled" ('verse not decided, Frohana, not outlined or started)

Meet the new list... same as the old list! (Well, almost.)
The fics that I have planned to start (and/or finish) writing in the next three to four months, in the likely order of my working on them, are:
"A Warm Place" (Frozen canon!verse, Kristanna, fully outlined, in progress)
A blanket scenario, in my own style—Kristoff keeps Anna warm during a storm. (Partly inspired by an ask from @kalikoke, by the Anna Week prompt "Warm Hugs and Frozen Hearts", and by a conversation with @karis-the-fangirl.)
"Lock and Key" (Frozen DA!verse, Snow Sisters, fully outlined, not started)
To get back at Elsa for missing [insert sisterly get-together activity] for the nth straight week, Anna hides all of the coffee in the house. Chaos ensues. (Possibly fit in a passing mention of That Cameo I was planning?) Need to figure out how to keep Elsa a *little* caffeinated (a leftover bar of Wakeful Chocolate?), so as not to contradict her behavior in "Space Coffee", or have her go full zombie (*winks at @mylittleartscapes*).
"The Watch Cat" (Frozen DA!verse, Snow Sisters/Kristanna, partially outlined, not started)
One of Elsa's cats is very fat, and likes to perch on the roof over the front porch, to Kristoff's discomfort. (Suggested by @hathor-frozen. Maybe also include Elsa playing with a cat's paw, like that cat video that went around a while back. Another idea to mention may be Elsa jokingly telling Anna that she's taught the cats how to snipe. May be a good fic to write something more substantial of That Cameo.)
The Calm After the Storm, chapter 12 (Frozen canon!verse, Snow Sisters/Kristanna/Frohana/Frangled, partially complete)
Final chapter for now. In January, I got some helpful writing advice on the story (*waves at @punzel-anna*), so I hope to get back to it soon.
"Bus Stop" (Frozen modern AU, Kristanna, not outlined or started)
Like the song by The Hollies, a typical romance that begins under an umbrella. (Possibly inspired by the Kristanna Week prompt "Rain".) As with "A Warm Place", this will go little further than fluff and cuddles.
"Untitled" ('verse not decided, Frohana, not outlined or started)
Anna is having a bad day, so a very busy Elsa assigns Kristoff to try and lift her spirits. Don't have a clear plot for it just yet. (Suggested by @karis-the-fangirl, who asked for Kristoff solving a problem.)
If anyone wants to shoot me ideas, for those fics that aren't outlined and have only a skeleton plot, feel free to reply or PM me! 😊
The things I have planned to start or finish writing in the next month or so are:
Untitled WIP (Frozen canon!verse) – Anna is upset that Elsa seems to tune her out while engrossed in work, so she plots to steal from the plate of cookies on her desk. Snow Sisters.
”Lock and Key” (DA!verse, not started) – To get back at Elsa for missing [insert sisterly get-together activity] for the nth straight week, Anna hides all of the coffee in the house. Chaos ensues. Snow Sisters.
The Calm After the Storm, chapter 12 – Final chapter for now. Been getting some helpful writing advice on the story (*waves at Anna*), so I may actually get back to it soon.
