Usually, retrospects take place at the end of the year. But at that point, Yuletide isn’t yet revealed, and those fics are, technically, written before the end of the year, though they are revealed after. So I do my retrospect by the end of November, instead.

Since December 2017 I have posted 9 fics, 8 of those finished, in 7 fandoms: The Borgias, Doctor Who, Harry Potter, Ivanhoe, Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell, Peter Pan and Versailles.

The Borgias: Homeward (Cesare Borgia/Micheletto Corella, Lucrezia Borgia & Micheletto Corella)

Doctor Who: Nothing Interesting Ever Happens in Perivale (Sarah Jane Smith, Ainley!Master, Third Doctor, Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart )

Harry Potter: Soaring High (The Flying Lessons Remix (Sirius Black/Remus Lupin)

Ivanhoe: A Gift For Her Heart) (Brian de Bois-Guibert/Rebecca of York)

Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell: A Conversations In the Yellow Drawing Room (Emma Pole/John Childermass)

Wedding Nerves (Arabella Strange/Jonathan Strange)

Peter Pan: The Devourer (Captain Hook)

Versailles: Remembrance (Fabien Marchal/Sophie de Clermont)

The End of the Story (Fabien Marchal/Sophie de Clermont) WIP

Four fics were multi-chapters. My most popular fic, by far, was Remembrance with most hits, kudos and comments of all my new fics. But even if I haven’t written much, I’m rather pleased with what I have written. I’m especially pleased with Nothing Interesting Ever Happens in Perivale (It’s always fun to write the Master), A Conversation of the Yellow Drawing Room (Because Emma is an awesome heroine) and A Gift For Her Heart, mostly because I have wanted to write an Ivanhoe-fic for years.

Five of these were written for fix exchanges, and one of those was a remix. I did Yuletide, Chocolate Box, and Remix Revival. I opted out of Night of Fic Mountain and Darkest Night because they both took place when I had very little energy to write, but also because I didn’t find any pårompts but my own interesting. I had planned to write treats, but there was not a single request with sparked my interest. As for gift exchanges for 2019, I have already not signed up for Yuletide, though I am writing a few treats. I will definitely do Chocolate Box, and probably Remix Revival, though I will not offer Harry Potter anymore. I know the canon very well, but I’m not very amused by it anymore. Then we’ll see if I sign up for anything else. I do wish there were a fic exchange solely for Classic Doctor Who.

Apart from Yuletide treats and a few exchanges I don’t have any particular plans for next year. I want to finish The End of the Story, and also edit a few old fics- especially Mary’s Tale which I really want to finish, but needs to be edited first. I also have a rather long fic rumbling in my mind, but I’m not sure I’ll write it down. It takes place before WWI, mainly in Egypt and focuses on Delgado!Master and eventually Third Doctor. But there will be no Doctor/Master slash and there will be original characters, and my Delgado!Master is not nice at all, so it’s not a fic which will appeal. I’ll write it down if I feel a massive urge to not forget it.
