Happy New Year's Eve, y'all! We've made it to the end of 2021, and we're about to ring in 2022. Some of you may already be living in the future or close to midnight right now. Time zones are infinitely fascinating. We'll catch up to you soon! I just want to say that everyone here has made amazing strides this year in their writing. It's been a struggle, but we've helped push each other forward. This community is a godsend for fanfic writers and it's been a joy interacting with y'all. Can't wait to see how far we all get with our writing next year. Good luck and best wishes in all that you do, everyone.

For our last check-in of the year, I thought we could do some reflecting. I found an end of the year writing meme (credit to queenangst) and I've selected some prompts I thought would work well for our group. Here's the full meme if you'd like to do it over on tumblr or here on DW.

Our discussion prompts:

• Favorite fic you wrote this year
• Favorite line/scene you wrote this year
• Fandom you enjoyed writing for the most this year
• Favorite character to write about this year
• A fic you didn’t expect to write
• Something you learned this year
• Fics you’ll continue next year
• Any new fics to start next year

Answer as many as you like or none at all if you'd rather talk about the progress you're making on your WIP.

Note: You can expect one more check-in from my hosting stint tomorrow (Saturday, Jan. 1).

A review the year thing I might even be able to get done. :D

Favorite fic you wrote this year: Not easy, I went through my Ao3 and there's a few that I like.
Maybe I'll point out X marks the Spot, a story written for the Mediaeval Exchange about an adventuresome map. I remember having problems with my recipients prompts, because there were just too many good ones. So I combined them and had great fun. :D
Favorite line/scene you wrote this year: For some reason I still am somewhat amused by the line: He wasn’t sure who intimidated him more, the Queen and mother of his lover, or the Fury and lover of his lover.
Fandom you enjoyed writing for the most this year: Hades, of course.
Favorite character to write about this year: I'm not sure. Might be our dear Zagreus indeed. And that Adventuresome Map, that was fun.
A fic you didn’t expect to write: Tartarus Lullaby. It's not finished yet, but I'd never have expected to write mpreg. And looking through my stories, Dragon Dance for the Dick or Treat event was a tad unexpected, too. Literal Monster Hunter monster fucking was not something I had ever planned to do…
Something you learned this year: Drawing feet and dick. Thanks Hades.
Fics you’ll continue next year: Tartarus Lullaby's sequels and The Shield Song which will also have a sequel…
Any new fics to start next year: *cries-in-far-too-many-WiPs-piling-up*
