Let's see...I worked on adding links to fics in a fandom "library" comm, I added the last few chapters of a fic to another fandom archive, then I finished critiquing the first five chapters of my critique partner's new book and now I am working on edits to one of my own original short stories. Later, I'll probably work on my challenge fic, too.
(It's a really slow day here at the office.)
As for fics I'm especially proud of. Oh, I'm sure there are a few. :) I think the biggest reason almost across the board is because I was able to evoke the emotion or the feeling I'd intended to, and the readers got it. That's very satisfying. Of course, writing a story that garners a lot of positive comments and a following is gratifying as well, but I don't think that always means the writer has to be overly proud of that work. In my case, one particular fic that resulted in that situation, is not the one I'm proudest of--not that I'm not proud of it for other reasons. :)
A few that I'm most proud of are:
(from Robin Hood BBC fandom)
Beautiful and Daybreak ~ a pair of companion drabbles, because I think they capture the mood so beautifully
Armistice ~ because I was able to realistically capture a character I don't care for and write the character I do like honestly even though he isn't always a likeable person
(from Harry Potter fandom)
Sleeping With Harry ~ because it's just cute and I was able to write irony :)
