Fic Roundup: January through June, 2010

[jedibuttercup]

The year is half over; time for a fic roundup? Why not. It'll distract me from wondering what the hell's wrong with my newest fic, at least. =)

So far in 2010, I've posted 58,100 words, slightly above last year's half-year total of 57,162. Overall post size is a bit smaller, mostly due to the drabble runs I did in the first quarter of the year, and fandom diversity is slightly up. Also interesting: last year's fic balance to date was only 35% crossovers, while this year's runs to 80% crossover content, a more typical number for me.

Considering that the show's been over since-- 2003, I think? Angel was '04? Yeah, it's pretty impressive it's managed to self-perpetuate this long. The quality's started to dift since the canon aged, but there are still a lot of gems being posted, and I'm a Name there at this point (second in # of stories posted, actually). I have a feeling I'll never entirely be able to leave it behind. =)

Only in so much as I'm told I've been cited there, actually. *grin* I looked at a couple of pages, quickly realized what a time-suck it would be if I let myself get involved, and backed away carefully. It's a fascinating project.
