2022: Writing Year in Review

This year I posted 19 stories, less than my usual, but that was one of my goals. I'm satisfied with what I wrote.

I'm most proud of posting The Last Envoy because that story had been in the works for years and it was time to figure it out and share it. Doing that was a great writing experience and a great fandom experience for me. I'm so grateful to everyone who read it and let me know what it meant to them.

[I also read a lot of stories this year and added authors to my list of favorites. I'll share those in another post.]

My writing goal for 2022 was to post less. Not because I am bowing out of the fandom, tired of writing, or hoping to become a 'real, published writer.' (*sarcasm: fanfiction IS real writing. Fight me.)

I wanted to post less because I needed to write differently and that required a new mental attitude. According to my Scrivener writing history, I actually wrote as many words in 2022 as I have in past years; I simply haven't posted them all. (They are steeping, or ripening, or whatever first drafts do when you leave them be for a while.)

One of the ways I learned to write was simply by writing a ton of stories and posting most of them. This is the Just Get Over Yourself and Do It School of Writing. I've been in the Sherlock fandom on AO3 for five years now, and I've written far more than the 133 stories and 1.6 M words I've posted. I'm proud of some stories, and I cringe at others. They all stay up for anyone to read because in writing them, I became better; they are a record of progress.

But writing well isn't the only goal of writing. Nor are numbers the goal (words, stories, hits, kudos, comments). As I consider where I'm going with my writing this year, I remind myself why I write:

To tell a story I'm excited to tell.

To try out something new that might not succeed, but I just want to see if I can do it.

To thank someone who's been supportive by writing something they will love.

To start a conversation with readers.

To get something out of my system.

To have fun writing a story that's just fun to write.

To work out feelings about something that happened, either in RL or fiction.

To imitate something I admire.

It's a new year! I've got stories in progress, but I'm not making goals. Working on goals implies that "done" is more important than "doing," that "being a writer" is more rewarding than "becoming a writer." For me, goals do not produce joy. If I have to make a goal, it is to carry on becoming a writer, and (I hope) never actually arriving. Being is not as much fun as becoming. Well, if I have to have a goal, it will be to have fun writing in 2023.

As Ao would say (quoting Ursula Le Guin): "It is good to have an end to journey towards; but it is the journey that matters, in the end."

I'd love to hear your reflections on the year just ended or goals you have for the new one. Tagging a few; probably not all I should tag; consider yourself tagged.

goodbye 2022!

I started exploring more styles this year, finding my own design trademarks, and of course enjoyed the heck out of fandom!

Favorite audio of 2022

For the past couple years I’ve been trying to make a habit of doing a sort of year in review post of my favorite audio from the past year, mainly for my own memory. So this is a non-comprehensive, unordered list of all the new music and podcasts I extra loved from 2022!

It’s funny to me that there’s only like two standout non-fiction podcasts from this year for me, not because I didn’t listen to a lot of non-fiction stuff (it’s my job) but because I haven’t been as up on new non-fiction shows.

Music:

Dragon New Warm Mountain by Big Thief

Few Good Things by Saba

Renaissance by Beyoncé

Home, before and after by Regina Spektor

Stumpwork by Dry Cleaning

Blue Rev by Alvvays

Ice, Death, Planets, Lungs, Mushrooms and Lava by King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard

Fiction podcasts:

Who Killed Avril Lavigne (Super Normal Media)

Doctor Who Redacted (BBC)

Batman: The Audio Adventures (HBO)

Goblet Wire (indie)

Shipworm (Two-Up Productions)

Quiet Part Loud (Monkeypaw Production + Gimlet)

Two Flat Earthers Kidnap a Freemason (Good Pointe)

Non-fiction podcasts:

Cover Story Season 2: Seed Money (NY Mag)

The Last Cup (NPR + Futuro)

Honorable mention: Suave (Futuro) which came out in 2021 but won a Pulitzer in 2022

Remember when Starz posted a 2022 Year in Review video… then 🤷🏻‍♂️

Will update with video if it goes live again. Weird.

Silcoitus's 2022 Wrap-Up!

I wanted something more visually appealing than my ao3 stats screenshot, so I threw this together because numbers and graphic design make brain go brrrr
