Year in review post coming presently, but here is a beta search! I feel like about half of my journal consists of beta searches. I used to ask for betas on lj comms, but as I move into new fandoms I'm less certain about where the activity centers are and tumblr doesn't work the same way. Also I don't trust strangers.

ANYWAY, looking for a James Bond/Skyfall beta. I have written an Elizabethan Skyfall AU, which I have managed to keep down to 11,000 words by dint of great effort. Rated teen for violence and death, minor Bond/Silva. Knowledge of the 16th century def not required - one of the reasons why I suspect this needs betaed is whether it's understandable to anyone not literally immersed in the renaissance. I would really appreciate it if anyone has time! No deadline, though I'd like to get this finished before I drive back to school on the 18th. Thanks :)

Going to be gone all day tomorrow and probably a lot of Sunday, so getting this out now. It's the annual year-end fanfic summary type thing!

I wrote and posted 97,802 words of fanfic this year. That breaks down into 29 stories (including all drabbles and commentfic except for those not!fic prompts and the handwritten meme). All but five stories were written for prompts - but the unprompted stories made up over half of the wordcount, so that's practically all of the long ones. This was the year that I wrote ridiculously long stories that no one especially wanted except me, including the Clint/Natasha/Bruce epic with extended Dr. Doom interlude, the Moran/Moriarty based around a behaviorist experiment, and the fluffy consent-heavy Teen Wolf heat fic. It was awesome!

Out of the prompted stories, 5 were best_enemies drabbles, 11 were for yuletide, 3 were for other exchanges, 2 were for the best_enemies anonmeme, and 3 were for other anonmemes. I've now officially caught up on deanoning and kind of stalled out on anonmemes in general, which is kind of sad. (And I'm still not counting my radiosonic script, since that isn't out for consumption yet. Someday it will vastly inflate my wordcount for one of these posts and I will rejoice.)

All told, it's about 220 words more and 6 stories less than last year. The story count is down because of my dry spell with anonmemes - the word count stayed about constant because I was writing some seriously long fic this year. I've felt like the ideas I've been getting have generally been mid to longfic recently, though I did write some shorter fic for Yuletide. Hm. Finally, my Doctor Who word count continued to drop, as it has every year - this year I wrote 31,479 words for Who and 66,323 for other fandoms. Almost all of my Who fic happened because of fests like remix, Gallifreyathon, and the femslash exchange. It does feel like lot of my ideas are happening in other canons. Maybe I'll return to Who fic next year - I'm planning to participate in all the same exchanges, so.

Last year I answered some meme-type questions, so I'll do them again this year:

they're under the cut! )
