I was tagged by @lumosatnight here and @greenmegsnoham here for a tag game for National Author's Day! Tis a tad late, but oh well!
I've written so much and there are many fics that are near to my heart that never got the attention I had hoped for them! For this, I looked at the bottom 20 fics sorted by hits and kudos and picked my favorites out of there. I tried to exclude anything newer, since their stats could improve with time (though some of them I don't really expect to.) (Looking at you, dead dove monstrosity and kinky lady love fic.)
Anyway, time to give a little love to my lesser loved babies!
