Goes to show how small of a fandom e.g. &lt;em&gt;The Terror&lt;/em&gt; is, which is where I've written by far the most fics. Also surprised and a little amused that my one longfic, a 25k mutual pining fix-it written for The Terror Big Bang, managed to evade the list completely. :D&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=desecrets&amp;ditemid=26360" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/&gt; comments</content>

    <content type="html">&lt;p&gt;how is everyone doing? i hope you've all had a good holiday, and a good christmas if you celebrate! 🎄&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;christmas here was very quiet this year - &lt;span class="cut-wrapper"&gt;&lt;span style="display: none;" id="span-cuttag___1" class="cuttag"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b class="cut-open"&gt;(&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b class="cut-text"&gt;&lt;a href="https://desecrets.dreamwidth.org/24037.html#cutid1"&gt;Read more...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b class="cut-close"&gt;&amp;nbsp;)&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style="display: none;" id="div-cuttag___1" aria-live="assertive"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;to get myself through the torment nexus that is christmas shopping from the wrong side of the register i've been listening to &lt;a href="https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/series/p07snwbt"&gt;this audiobook of &lt;em&gt;the wind in the willows&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt; which is up on bbc sounds (through some sneaky vpn usage, since i'm not in the uk), and getting regular little instalments of mole and rat and badger and toad has honestly saved my sanity a little this past month.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;once i finish &lt;em&gt;the wind in the willows&lt;/em&gt;, my read books tally for this year will clock in at 16, which is something like 12 or 13 more than i've been averaging over the past few years, i think, so i'm very happy with that. &lt;em&gt;finally&lt;/em&gt; realising that i'm allowed to just read whatever silly nonsense i want has definitely been a large part of it: i've ploughed through something like eight or nine &lt;em&gt;doctor who&lt;/em&gt; novelisations aimed at children and had a great time doing it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;i received a lovely little fic for yuletide!! i read it first thing in the morning (well, afternoon), while still in bed, on the 25th and enjoyed it very much: &lt;a href="https://archiveofourown.org/works/61424845"&gt;an angsty, introspective doctor/master oneshot for &lt;em&gt;doctor who: scream of the shalka&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt; featuring injury-tending, which is just the kind of trope i love.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strike&gt;to my own shock&lt;/strike&gt;, i also managed to finish my own yuletide fic. &lt;span class="cut-wrapper"&gt;&lt;span style="display: none;" id="span-cuttag___2" class="cuttag"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b class="cut-open"&gt;(&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b class="cut-text"&gt;&lt;a href="https://desecrets.dreamwidth.org/24037.html#cutid2"&gt;Read more...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b class="cut-close"&gt;&amp;nbsp;)&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style="display: none;" id="div-cuttag___2" aria-live="assertive"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;i have successfully yuletide-ed for the first time! 🎉 kind of a small milestone; i hadn't tried to do yuletide since i was forced to default twice when i first tried to do it, back in high school, and the experience was so guilt-inducing i never touched it again. 😅 now i can do it again in future without being scared!&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=desecrets&amp;ditemid=24037" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/&gt; comments</content>
