Discussion: time spent on one fic. What is the longest amount of time that you've spent working on a fic? What is the shortest amount of time that you've spent working on a fic? Is there something you're still working on?

The longest for me is over a year which was when I wrote If You Asked and both Haunted and Twice Unjust took around eight months to finish. The shortest is around ten minutes on So Bad It's Good. I'm still working on Let Me Fade and I think that'll be close to two years when I eventually get it finished and I started it in February of this year and am taking my time with it.

I've written fic in under an hour, usually for Tumblr prompts or really quick meme fills on LJ. The longest running fic I'm still actively working on? Over two years now, I think, but I've definitely worked on fics longer than that in the past. It's just that this one seems fit to, uh, conclude at some point.
