Review of the year

For 2006, I wrote:
Favourite fic: The Squib. I really like these characters and this situation. And since it's 'next generation' I like the freedom of not worrying too much about canon.
Least favourite fic: My holiday drabble for the fluff thread. My Molly and Arthur feel so cliched I can't bear it.
Hardest to write: Harry Potter and the Spoils of Annwn. Why did I ever think that epic poetry was a good idea?!
Easiest to write: Marriage. This flowed so easily, without deadlines or threats and I loved writing it.
Greatest risk taken: Posting fic on the internet for other people to read for the first time ever.
Greatest risk not taken: Telling people in RL where they can find my fic.
Writing Challenge for 2007: To write something I'm proud enough of that I can link to it from my RL blog.
Looking back on 2007:
Favourite fic: Skipping to the End. What? You want me to choose one of mine? Hmm. There's something about Witch Seeks Wizard that really appeals to me.
Least favourite fic: At the moment, it's the Regency Romance. I like it and it's fun to write, but it's not really something I'm particularly proud of. I know it's lazy writing, but then that's sort of the point of it for me.
Hardest to write: Picking up the Pieces. Oh, and Gotterdammerung. Fie on you, rhetoretician for sending me out of my comfort zone all the time!
Easiest to write: Meeting the Weasleys. So much fun.
Greatest risk taken: I guess this would be the forays into original fiction. Oh, and I did 'fess up to my writing on my RL blog. I posted a general link early in the year, then a specific link to Picking up the Pieces, which a number of friends and family have now read.
Greatest risk not taken: Ah. Well. Hmm. I think this would be something to do with submitting work for publication. Aside from one little online magazine which rejected me very promptly, this isn't a world I've wanted to enter.
Writing Challenge for 2008: To keep enjoying it!
