29 – What is your current project or projects?
Princess Rahl, Some Kind of Miracle, and the story I'm working on with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
meridian_rose, as well as any fests I end up signing up for, the hiatus challenge on ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
legendland, and the bits and pieces of stories I'm still hoping will coalesce into some kind of finished product someday.
30 – Do you have a favorite fic you've written? What makes it your favorite? And don't forget to give us a link!
I like almost all of my stories (with a few notable exceptions). Some of the most fun I've ever had while I was actually writing was for The Unravelling or the Perils of Powerful Magic; intellectually I found Lady Rahl and Undone to be important, since I feel they explore issues and themes I thought were implied in the show without being stated; Master and Killing with Kindness were both really hard for me because they're so dark, but they wouldn't leave me alone until I'd written them; Wedding Anniversary was hard because it was my first real NC-17 fic...(okay, so that's kind of a lot...)
My current favorite is probably Hope. During this meme, I've mentioned how the best stories are the ones that insist on being written, for whatever reason. As soon as I saw the prompt, the idea for Hope was in my mind, but it took me awhile to be able to articulate what I wanted to do even to myself, and then it was quite hard to write, to the point where I was convinced it wasn't any good at times - and I was terrified of not being a good enough writer to realize my vision. (This probably sounds silly to non-writers, but it was a real struggle for me.) So that's the story of which I'm most proud.
(I also wrote quite a bit for Harry Potter; Evans the Mudblood is probably my favorite of my HP fics - it's second person, which was difficult, but worth it, I think.)
