There is more to life than fics? Surely you jest!

Technically, I guess this would be a meme for January, but I'm not sure I'll finish any new stories before then, so let's say it's safe doing it now. Blaired from dsudis.

The Fics I Wrote in 2005:

The Sentinel
Solace

The Sentinel - Night series
Who Needs Fairy Tales, Even Trade and Brief Moment in Time

Numb3rs
Additive Inverse, A different World and Part of the Cycle

Supernatural
Exorcism

It does make me smile because dsudis, the girl I gacked the meme from - which btw, I cut in half. Er, I mean the meme obviously, not the girl - wrote 42 stories the past year, one of which was a 50.000 word novel. Boggles the mind, I know lol But thing is, I'm happy I can write, period, so I'm satisfied with my work *g* Also for the record, Even Trade is +11.000 words and for me that's a lot *nods*

Still, I definitely wouldn't mind writing more... we'll see how it goes in 2006 ;-)

Speaking of fics. For the Numb3rs slashers on my flist who dig OT3, penguingal and schnaucl wrote a third part in their Don/Charlie/Coop series.

And see, this is another thing I adore in Numb3rs, how we have two canon varied threesomes to work with, and here I'm talking about Don/Charlie/Coop and Don/Charlie/Edgerton. People write them on a regular basis, too, which makes my heart sing *happy sigh* Also, we have spikedluv who promised told us she would write a nice OT3 Numb3rs fic soon - and was curious as to who her flist would like to see Don and Charlie in a threesome with. Cue to poll where I picked Edgerton because... because it's Edgerton? Yes.

See, it's not that I don't want to read a threesome with someone else from the poll, because let's be honest here, the brothers look hot and sexy and pretty with just about every one of them but EDGERTON! I cannot not choose him if he's included in the list. Just... it's Edgy! The man who fell in lust with Charlie the first time he laid eyes on him. The man who feels both lust and affection for Charlie and who seems to be attracted to his mind as well as his body even though he doesn't always understand him. He's also a man Don really respects and loves and someone Don would feel safe sharing Charlie with.

Of course Don is quite attracted to Edgerton himself. It's like meeting an equal and just to think of the things he could do with Edgerton... and all the things they could do to Charlie? Well just the thought makes Don hard, really.

So why Edgerton? Because he feels an attraction to the brothers, which is completely mutual and because he would love both them equally, just in a different way. And Don and Charlie would know he could never go between them though he would be part of them for however long they want and they would still be friends the morning after. They're like friends with a benefit because they would have someone to share themselves with each time they would feel like and wow, imagine that!

They would be perfect together. QED *nods*

Damn freakishly talented authors. Who was it that posted an essay about the freakishly talented authors migrating? *wracks brain*

Anyway, it was great meta.

Twelve is nice, it's one a month. That's a nice ratio, imho *g* And actually, since you are a vidder too, I'd say it's actually a great result ;-)

I try to tell myself that. :) And I've been very lax about feedback lately for fics, whereas I've upped my feedback for vids. *slaps hand*

You know---there should be a Year In Feedback meme. Or something. I know there are fics I've yours that I've loved and meant to comment on, but for one reason or another, never ended up coming back to do it.

I think that was carodee. Check the past three weeks or so - it hasn't been long.

Since LJ appeared in my life, I give even more feedback, I think. I'm quite a good feedbacker - I don't send a LoC all the time I read a fic I liked - or else I would need way more than 24 hours in a day, really - but each time I read a fic that really had an impact on me, I send a feedback.

And actually, when I say that I don't send a LoC just if I "liked" a fic, I'd say that it's not 100% on LJ where I'll comment anyway. I guess it goes faster on LJ and all.

But thing is, I do send feedback - though of course, we can always improve our FB writing *g*

I know there are fics of yours that I've loved and meant to comment on

Really? Hey thanks a lot for letting me know *g* I know how sometimes we just forget to send a comment - for whatever reason - but I'm delighted to hear you did enjoy some of my fics even though you didn't comment directly ;-) And obviously, it's never too late, so thank you *g*
