My fic in 2021
Whew, what a flood of posting there is around New Year's; I'm not quite caught up. Anyway, here's what I wrote in 2021:
Flight of the Heron:
In His Father's Footsteps: Keith family backstory, 2,000 words
The Greater Happiness: Keith/Ewen, Ewen/Alison, Alison/OFC, 142,000 words
Divided Loyalties: Keith/Ewen, 50,000 words
Other fic:
Some Omitted Scenes from the Adventures and Amours of Alithea de Richelieu and Arabella de Montferan, Set Down by the Former for the Pleaſure of the Latter: The Travels and Adventures of Mademoiselle de Richelieu - Anonymous, Arabella/Alithea, 1,000 words
No Longer Sole Representative: The Left Hand of Darkness, Genly and ensemble gen, 4,000 words
A Woman of Anarres: The Dispossessed, OFC gen, 700 words
That's only six stories, but one of them is 142K, and another is 50K! So I'm pretty happy with my wordcount. : ) My favorite story among these is The Greater Happiness; it was a joy to write such a long and slowburn poly fic. ♥ And in general I've been in my Flight of the Heron happy place all year.
My two Le Guin Yuletide stories are okay, but not my best work. I do think many people would enjoy my short 18th century f/f if they tried it! I'm happy with the 18th century pastiche, and there's humor in it, too. All you need to know is that it's a canon where both women are disguised as men and traveling around Europe together.
I would also like to thank all my beta readers this year:![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
