Fanfic meme

[wiseheart]

I saw this on the journal of the lovely lethe_loyd who offers me the most interesting memes to do. I still dont quite understand how it actually works, but I've simply copy&pasted it below; perhaps others are smarter than I am. *g*

the old.
as a fanfiction writer, have you ever wondered what your 'winning' fic or your most well-loved fanfic is? this meme is for fanficcers who want to know which of their works are others' favorites as well as for readers who want to show more appreciation to the fanficcers.

the new.
it's a new year, and if you're anything like me, you've written more and more fic since the last time this meme was around. so we're gonna do it all over again, and see if your best fic according to others has changed any. this is also a chance for the new writers to see if they've got any favorites among fandom, as well. :)))

rules.
• List the fandoms you write for.
Well, let me see: Tolkien, Star Trek (TOS, TNG, DS9 and Voy), B5, Stargate: Atlantis, Andromeda, Queer As Folk US, Kindred: The Embraced (x-ed over with several other vampire shows, including Angel, Buffy, Poltergeist, etc), Brother Cadfael - have I forgotten anything? If I count the x-overs individually, I come to about a dozen fandoms.

• people will tell you what is their favorite fic/s by you (links appreciated); they can also leave other positive messages.

• since this is an appreciation meme, please do not start wank. (and by please, I mean I'll delete that sh*t pronto. - original quote, so don't shoot me for it, okay?)

So that's it. Feel free to comment.

I'm flattered. :)

Sometimes I wonder whether I should have put in a few more chapters before jumping to the Epilogue, but there wasn't much new I could have added, and I didn't want it to go on infinitely.

No, I know what you mean. You could have added more, I certainly would not have minded, but sometimes it feels right to stop at a certain place.

That's very true. Adding more might have made the story better - but it also might have made it utterly boring and repetitive, because honestly, what else could have happened during Enadar's recovery? Getting better, having setbacks, getting better again - rinse and repeat...

Getting better, having setbacks, getting better again

I do see that as very likely however, not just a * miraculous * recovery.

True, but it would also make a very boring reading, after the oh, say, seventieth repeat. Elves have all the time of the world, but we mere mortals have to speed up things to get anything done. ;)
