effexHappy (Gregorian) New Year's, folks! 2010 out, 2011 is in, and I am glad. It's been an intense year.
Also, Yuletide author reveals are up! I wrote Idiots are always moving forward, a Hayate x Blade fic for Sumiregawa. There's femslash (Sae/Akira, hints of others), Takarazuka references, dancing, plotting, and general shenanigans! I had a blast writing it (when I wasn't tearing out my hair).
And while we're talking fic, let's do that meme. In 2010, I wrote:
* Untitled Arhur/Eames drabble (Inception)
* Idiots are always moving forward (Hayate x Blade)
* Untitled Yusuf/Saito drabble (Inception)
* The Coffeehouse Crossover Confrontation (Middleman/Losers)
* Masks, Robots, Coffee (A ZapBamPow Exclusive Interview) (Sky High)
For a total of...9,575 words. A personalfinished, posted, non-original fic best!
I put serious thought into writing another 500 words of something last night, after posting that second Inception drabble. Get my word count up to 10,000 just in time for the new year. I decided to play Mirror's Edge and watch Castle with my family instead. I don't regret it :D Besides, 10,000 words makes a great goal for 2011.
I'm not one for New Year resolutions, but there are some things I want to do in 2011:
* Find a therapist
* Walk more
* Cook more
* Revive the Princess Project
* Take a stab at doing a comic (Working title: Grace Dominguez Will Rule the World)
* Write more
* Draw more
* Learn more
* Beef up my design portfolio
* Get a new job
* Take care of myself
Like I said up top, 2010 was a hard year. My grandparents are doing badly, my job's exploitative, and I've struggled a lot with anxiety and depression. BUT.
It's also been a good year. My family and friends have been spared the worst of the financial crisis, I've got a job to complain about, I got a second awesome roommate, I learned a shit ton about social justice issues, I've been more active in fandom than I've ever been before.
There was a lot of good in 2010, and I'm glad of it. It's finally fucking over and I'm glad of that, too.
