I feel a bit silly doing this, given the few fics longer than 100 words that I've actually written, but what the heck...
My favorite story (of my own): All Set Down, I think. It's certainly not perfect (I wish I'd done a better job with the last section), and it's not really my goal always to write fics that are quite that grim, but overall I think it's alright and it's got some lines I rather like.
Story most tragically underappreciated by the universe, in my opinion: I don't have a very big audience. Since I've declared All Set Down to be my favourite, I'll go with that one.
Most fun story: Fun to read or fun to write? I had alot of fun writing Unrequited and trying to fit the paragraphs to the 'code' for my sekrit valentine. At 2 am, I was running around my apartment and demanding of the dog, "What's a good U-word? What's a good U-word?? I need a word that starts with U!!!" For the record, he was entirely unhelpful.
Story with the single sexiest moment: I really don't do sex. I must be too Victorian or something - I just wind up blushing whenever I try to write it. The rare times I've ventured past a PG rating were for language or violence. ::is lily-white::
Most unintentionally telling story: I don't think any of my fics are particuarly revealing about me. I definitely don't have some strange obsession with vanilla chapstick. :-)
"Holy crap, that's wrong, even for me" story: As part ofjedi_penguin's Bad!fic Mockathon, we had to mock the story that was written for us. My mock of theohara's That's What It's All About is, um, a little rude. Ryan Seacrest still isn't speaking to me.
Hardest story to write: I sweat blood for all of them, which could explain my tendency towards anaemia. Probably Pier Group threw me into the biggest panic of "YOU CAN'T DO THIS!!!!", because it was the first.
Worst story: Again, probably Pier Group. It's OK, but it's not deep and it's a little forced. It was my first shot at fanfic. ::shrugs::
Easiest story to write: Without question, my bad!fic Bell of the Ball. It was ridiculously easy to write and I'm just refusing to think about the implications of that. Choosing from my real fics, I'd say Waiting For You. It took me nearly an entire workday (yes, when I was supposed to be working!) to do, but I was kinda on a roll and by 5 pm it was pretty much in its final form.
Story I'd like to revise (but probably won't): I think I'd rather finish something new than start revising.
Story I wish I'd finished: A multi-chaptered WIP that no one except me has ever seen. It's set in BtVS S2 and stars ev0l!Spike, a (sort of) original character, Maggie Walsh, and, eventually, Angelus. It was meant to be a backstory weaving behind the canon plot that we saw on TV. I managed to write two chapters and an outline for the rest, but then kind of stalled out. Also, a couple of other writers seem to be tackling similar premises and I don't want to seem like I copied them.
Story I didn't write but swear I will, someday: An apocalypfic. I know the setting and the Big Bad, have a vague idea of the ending, but that whole middle section is MIA.
