This year, I wrote in a few new fandoms, so I'm proud of that. I also branched out and wrote a few things that were different for me, like my f/f elephant & badger stories. And my 100 drabbles project was such great fun! I know it looks like I didn't get anything written in October and November. But I actually finished 5 stories and a handful of drabbles during those months, not including giftfics. I posted two of the stories in early December, one is for a special project for later in 2017, and the others are two Strokes stories I haven't posted yet.
Some of my favorite pieces of 2016 include:

Some of my favorite pieces of 2016 include:
- Isolation- I really fell in love with my poly dwarves
- Blowing Things Up (Or Not)- I was really pleased with how this turned out. Creating this dynamic among John, Sherlock, and Greg came out exactly the way I'd hoped. I've got half a sequel to this story done as well right now.
- Their Give and Take- The soft vanilla BDSM was such a joy to play with. I fell in love with these guys almost instantly
- Practice Lessons Part 1 & Part 2- Once in a while I write a story that I feel like I'm living in rather than just writing. I was right there inside this one while creating it. It was consuming and obsessive and really moved me. I couldn't stop writing it, even when it was over! And I also had the pleasure of spending a vacation day at home with my kitty curled up on my lap while writing the majority of this story, just a few days before she died. So it's going to have a special place in my heart regardless. But even without that, this turned out to be a special story for me.
