...at least for fan-fiction writing.
2011 was a productive year for me in terms of writing- both fan-fiction and especially outside of it.
First of all through the sheer amount of writing I've done (including Complicated Detour), my writing style has become very different. I have come to like and appreciate writing completely in the Third Person PoV- AtO is not completely Third Person PoV because I kept spelling out Harry's thoughts- something that's not as abundant in chapter 13 (and I like it that way).
So that'll be a bit jarring to readers- which means editing of old chapters later (which I'm not completely keen about- I tried editing an older chapter and the word count dropped dramatically. It's not bad- it's just extra work.)
Speaking of AtO, this year I broke the 1000 review mark- which is all sorts of awesome. But at the same time rather guilt-inducing sometimes considering my slow writing/updating. For some reason, my guilt makes me work on the ending chapters of AtO- which doesn't make any sense to me what so ever.
I've also met some awesome people through ffnet- who're always eager to discuss all sorts of crazy ideas with me when I just need a good non-serious distraction.
Anyway, my plans for 2012 are:
1-I will edit and finish my incomplete stories. (because they deserve better than being hidden away on my laptop)
2- I will get more than 5 chapters of AtO written this year. (Anything more is great- anything less is just sad.)
3- I will write a fan-fiction story completely in French. (A one-shot/drabble sounds doable)
4- I will review other people's stories more often. (I follow so many awesome stories but I always shy away from reviewing.)
5- I will finish a 100-theme challenge.
And I think that's more than enough for fan-fiction resolutions. Do you guys have any resolutions to do with fanfiction/hobbies?
Polar.
P.S. Happy New Year! I hope you have a wonderful time in the next year filled with prosperity, fun and better things.
