Looking back, did you write more fic than you thought you would this year, less, or about what you'd predicted?
Well, I wrote over 50 stories, which is definitely a record, but most of them are short one-shots. I was hoping to have at least one multi-part mostly finished by now, but I'm only about a third done with Fire and Ice, and I'm seriously considering dropping it... I guess I'll say more, just based on the sheer number of stories, but I definitely didn't write as much as I hoped I would.

What pairing/genre/fandom did you write that you would never have predicted in January 2007?
I wasn't planning to write anything for Harry Potter, but the .moon challenge gave me the opportunity to try it on, and now I can't stop thinking of story ideas, especially now that I've finished the series. *laughs* 

What's your favorite story of the year? Not the most popular, but the one that makes you happiest?
I really love Queen of Hollywood for some reason, and I was really happy with my two KS one-shots, Birth of a Dream and Pillow Talk.

Did you take any writing risks this year? (See above for unexpected pairings, etc.) What did you learn from them?
Eh, I tried some new fandoms, like Kaleido Star, Harry Potter, and Super GALS, but I wouldn't really call them risks.

Do you have any fanfic goals for the New Year?
Actually, I'm rather aimless at the moment, which is unusual. I guess I'm going to try and salvage Fire and Ice, since I really hate the idea of dropping it, and I want to try to finish my 15pairingsclaim, but that's all I can think of.

My Best Story:
Oh, I honestly don't know.

Story Most Underappreciated by the Universe:
I guess I'll say Pillow Talk. I really thought it would be more popular than it was.

Most Fun:
Ruining the Mood, definitely. I was snickering all through writing it.

Most Disappointing:
Fire and Ice isn't coming off as well as I thought it would.

Most Sexy:
Well, Against the Rules is definitely the winner of that title, but Pillow Talk is pretty sexy as well.

Story with a Single Sexy Moment:
Pillow Talk, Caught, Ruining the Mood, and some of the Only Human vignettes.

Hardest to Write:
Fire and Ice

Most Unintentionally Telling:
I don't think any of them are really telling. Maybe Wishing You Were Here, based on how I was feeling at the time.

Hey, I seem to have ended up with an extra copy of two volumes of "The Cherry Project." I believe they're volumes 2 and 3 (I'm at work right now, but wanted to comment before I forgot again). One of them is missing its cover, but they seem to be in fine shape. They're in Japanese. Would you like them?

Really? I would love them! That would be fantastic. ^_^

I'll try to get them sent out this week but it's going to be out-of-town crazytimes, so if that doesn't happen I'll send them next week. :)
