I'm at home, as my knight in armor, [livejournal.com profile] pghpatronus, has come down with the flu, so I'm not travelling to visit with him and [livejournal.com profile] wolfiekins and [livejournal.com profile] koshweasley. We're all disappointed that we won't get to see each other, and I hope that PGH gets well soon. He's on some serious meds, and I'm in a funk.

So! This time of year is a good time to look back. I can't really begin to comprehend how incredibly painful, anger- and anxiety-ridden this year has been for me in RL, so instead, here's the listing of the stories I've written, the various new and old pairings and life experiences I explored through writing as an escape and/or written alternative to my own situations out in the world. Despite the very, very challenging year, I've written a lot that I'm proud of, and hope that you who are readers of my fic, have enjoyed at least one or two of my output from 2007.

fic listing, in chronological order )

The ones I'm most proud of? Probably the Ron/Dean Vermilion Hunger, Cerulean Thirst; Strange-Eyed Constellation (a rare trio if ever there was one!); Strife from the Furthest Prime, and Crown of Rope. Here's to an equally creative outpouring in 2008. For those of you who continue to read and enjoy my stories and let me know, my heartfelt thanks to you. To those who read my stories and lurk, thank you for that as well. And to my many betas, I so appreciate your insights and enthusiasm. With each story I hope that I'm honing my craft, and one of my planned intentions is to spread my wings a bit out beyond fanfic this next year. I'd hoped to do that in 2007, but it wasn't to be. Still, as I look back at what I did contribute to the Harry Potter fandom in 2007, I feel a sense of pride and accomplishment. Thank you all for bothering to take the time to read my often long-ish fics, and to let me know what you thought.

This novella with pairings I've not really written before all started with a prompt from [livejournal.com profile] risiepookie. Many of you know that I'm drawn to threesomes, and this story explores that realm with its rather complex dynamics, especially considering the characters in this. Here's the summary and a few notes:

Title: Strange-Eyed Constellation
Pairing(s): Past Fred/Seamus, Seamus/Dean, eventual Fred/Seamus/Dean, Ron/Harry
Rating: Overall NC-17, though not each section will be so. I'll let you know.
Status: WIP; I'll be posting probably once a week; it's currently a little over 23K words. Crossposted to [livejournal.com profile] deamus.
Summary: War can make strange bedfellows; peacetime allows kindred spirits to join together. Seamus discovers both, and in being true to the baffling desires of his heart, believes that love needn't come exclusively in pairs.
A/N: my thanks to [livejournal.com profile] auntee_mame for the written beta; exceeding gratitude to [livejournal.com profile] wolfiekins and [livejournal.com profile] callumjames for letting me read aloud and giving me insightful feedback while I write this; also for their enthusiasm over what's certainly a rare trio. The title comes from Thomas Hardy's poem "Drummer Hodge."

This story has two very short vignette prologues, which are actually the kernels which prompted me to keep going. The first is this: The Test of the Heart is Trouble. The second, a very short, untitled vignette set a couple of months later in the story arc is here. I'd recommend starting there as otherwise the rest may seem rather odd. ;)

Strange-Eyed Constellation, first post, R rating )

I just stood outside for a little bit, watching the snow fall, enjoying the quiet. It just put me at peace, watching the flakes as their patterns shifted around the streetlight. I also have a slab of chocolate generously sent from [livejournal.com profile] matildabishop that I've been gnawing on a bit; that's lovely too.

In honor of our unexpected snow, here's just a wee snippet that fits in this wee universe begun here.

Last night around 12:30 a.m. I posted about feeling as though I was in a rut, writing-wise; same pairings, same situations, rhubarb, rhubarb. So I asked for four people to send me pairings/situations/ambiance/lyrics prompts, and received four lyrics-driven prompts, all HP (I do still write Tolkien, even though not much of late).

[livejournal.com profile] risiepookie's jumped at me first, so here 'tis. Her pairing request was Dean/Ron, but since I'm writing an ever-growing fic with that pairing thanks to her prompt, I opted for her suggestion #2: Fred/Seamus. But then her prompt suggestion was "Missing" by Evanescence, lyrics here. o_O I love challenges like that! So, here's the fic. And while it's Seamus/Fred, I think it mostly turned into a small lovefest about Dean's character. Whoops.

Title: The Test of the Heart is Trouble
Pairing: Seamus/Fred
Rating: Hard R
Word Count: 1380
Unbeta'ed; this is an exercise for fun.
