2016 Fanfiction Year-in-Review

I've never done this before; but each year I see friends do it and think I should too, so....

"Heat in the Kitchen" (website, AO3)
- Forever Knight, 744 words, 25 March
Not written as a gift for anyone, just a seasonal idea that occurred to me. Posted first to FKFIC-L, which needs more love from all FK fans.

"A Letter from Abroad" (website, AO3)
- The Charioteer, 1197 words, 14 May, written for fawatson in the Renault Exchange (renaultx)

"Jean at the Witching Hour" (website, AO3)
- Janet Sandison's Jean Robertson series, 13,886 words, 18 June, written for fawatson in myoldfandom

"Festival of Festivals" (website, AO3)
- Forever Knight, 2830 words, 25 September, written for brightknightie in fkficfest

"To , or Not to ," (website, AO3)
- Oxford Comma Example Sentences, 176 words, 7 October, written for baniszew as a New Year's Resolution, i.e. a belated gift to a prompt from the 2015 Yuletide exchange.

"Star of the Waning Summer" (website, AO3)
- Mary Renault's The Mask of Apollo, words, 724 words, 17 October, written for fawatson in the Trick or Treat Exchange (trickortreatex)

"The Children of Closti the Clam" (website, AO3)
- Diana Wynne Jones's Dalemark Quartet, 2446 words, 25 October, written for betony in Trick or Treat

"Command the Signs" (website, AO3)
- Susan Cooper's The Dark is Rising, 1528 words, 31 October, written for blueteak in Trick or Treat

"Back in the Saddle" (website, AO3)
- Dick Francis's 10^lb Penalty, 1865 words, 7 November, written for serenade in Trick or Treat

"A Correspondence between Gentlemen" (website, AO3)
- The Charioteer, 3072 words, 2 December, written for elsa in Yuletide

"The Rape of the Book" (website, AO3)
- Georgette Heyer's Venetia, 6350 words, 20 December, written for morganmuffle in Yuletide

"Whisper" (website, AO3)
- Forever, 3510 words, 23 December, written for argylepiratewd in Yuletide

"The Father, the Son, and the Unholy Ghost" (website, AO3)
- Forever Knight, 3561 words, 24 December, written for astolat in Yuletide

Thirteen stories. I've no idea what it all adds up to in terms of word count. What's clear is that, early in the year, I wrote relatively little compared to the fall/winter. Not surprising, I suppose. In both Trick or Treat and Yuletide I wrote treats in fandoms that are new to me (as far as writing is concerned, that is). Very enticing prompts!
