You know what? I'm going to do a fic round up! It's been so long since I've written enough in any period of time to do any sort of wrap up, but in 2011 I wrote. I wrote, and I loved writing, and it's time for me to put that here, at least so I can sit back and feel accomplished.

So!

What did I write in 2011?

Harry Potter

the gift of what you notice more [Seamus/Dean, pg13, 1200 words]
This was the final installment of an 11 part Seamus/Dean series that I started AGES ago and finally, finally finished. Oh, those boys. They own so much of my heart. ♥


Sherlock BBC

blame the dim sum [Sherlock/John, pg13, 500 words]
My very first piece of Sherlock/John fanfiction. 500 words of kissing. Because, well, as many of you know, kissing is one of my very favorite things.
Sherlock's lips are lush, malleable, and so bloody soft.


drunk crack Sherlock fic [Sherlock/John, rated o.0 for silliness]
Just some embarassing crack fic I wrote via email to [personal profile] incapricious one night after having several margaritas.


Until I Wrap Myself Inside Your Arms I Cannot Rest [Sherlock/John, light r, 6000 words]
written for [personal profile] incapricious to incorporate a bit of gun!porn, injury!porn, and kissing!porn. Y'know, as one does.
It's all a very innocent and juvenile moment, but as soon as Sherlock stops, standing there in the middle of their kitchen in a rather well-fitted pair of boxer shorts, John finds that he can only breathe very shallowly.


Infallible Data [Sherlock/John, rated R, 4000 words]
Observation is a way of life for Sherlock. Observation of John Watson, however, is an entirely different affair. I wrote this to take a short break from the long fic I was writing at the time.
Sherlock finds himself drawn to the contour of John's collarbones, this vision of skin and bone he's never afforded through John's conservatively buttoned wardrobe.


DIsguise [Sherlock/John, rated nc17, 55,000 words]
This one is my epic! It's the only story I've ever really written in a completely linear fashion, and the longest thing I've written in my life. It started as a short fic in response to a prompt on the prompting meme, but grew plot and kept going and going and going. I'm still proud of it. :)


Tangled [Sherlock/John, pg13, 221b]
This was inspired by [personal profile] livia_carica's gorgeous art, examining the two sleeping tangled together. My very first 221b!
kaalee: (sherlock -- john side glance)
title: Disguise
author: [personal profile] kaalee
pairing: John Watson/Sherlock Holmes, BBC verse
rating: nc17
word count: ~55k
summary: Sherlock's disguises are little more than a nuisance to John until one day he walks into the kitchen dressed as someone from John's past, someone John had desperately tried to forget.
prompt: Written for this prompt on [personal profile] sherlockbbc_fic: Sherlock is amazing at disguising. John knows this; he's seen him in countless disguises and if Sherlock really tries he can make himself look completely unlike himself. Then one day Sherlock wears a disguise John hasn't seen on him before, and John recognises him. Recognises him as the first man he ever slept with, in a night club, who afterwards had said he had just needed a diversion to stop some other guy noticing him. Then left without looking back. The whole incident totally fucked up John's head for weeks, broke up his relationship, and almost got him kicked out of med school for not focusing/missing assignments/failing tests because all he could think about was what an idiot he'd been. [originally posted anonymously, I'm finally de-anoning.]

author's notes: Many thanks to my beta readers [personal profile] incapricious and [personal profile] tailoredshirt, and to [profile] augmentedme for advice on medical accuracy, and to various members of my flist for all of the cheerleading and enthusiasm as this story took form. I'd also like to thank those on tumblr who posted links and tumbled about it at various times. ♥

extra thanks: I have to thank two people in particular: [personal profile] incapricious, who has been with me, quite literally, from day one of this story. In fact, she was sitting across the living room from me as I wrote the very first scene. JC, thank you for all of your support, the discussions in IM, and the belief that I could actually do this. ♥ As well, to [profile] sisterzurda, an absolutely glorious artist and wonderful person who has done some gorgeous art to illustrate the story. I can't believe my luck to have such beautiful work to go along with this. See her work here and here [or go look at her gallery on DeviantArt here]

kaalee: (sherlock & john - surreal)
Yesterday I finished my unexpectedly long Sherlock/John fic. When I finished, I sat back in the chair at the coffee shop and just boggled. The final word count on the story stands at 55,622 words.

It took me a little more than seven months to write, which works out to just under 8,000 words per month. Given that the longest stories I'd written before this were (at most) 8,000-11,000 words, this feels astronomical.

I'm such a slow writer and before this story I was a completely non-linear writer, but with this, I pretty much wrote in order, from beginning to end, with very little jumping around.

To say this feels like an accomplishment would be an understatement. I never thought I was capable of something like this. Honestly, it's entirely possible that it'll never happen again, but the thing that blows me away is that I can sit back and realize that I wrote the equivalent of a novel. A short one, given, but still. This is the longest damn thing I've ever written and the entire thing surprised me at every turn. How cool is that?

The other thing that I love is that it's all about Sherlock and John. I fell so hard for them back in February, and this feels a little bit like a love letter I've been writing to them for the past months, trying to share with them all of the feeeeeeelings they give me and the way they make my eyes do this: ♥__♥


Okay, enough of that. For those of you (♥) that have mentioned that you'd like to read it, I'm going to send it to a couple of friends to help me edit it up, and I'm hoping to be able to put it up here in a couple of weeks.

I hope you're all well. ♥

a/n: This I wrote to take a break from the long fic I've been writing for several months now. It was a welcome challenge to try to capture Sherlock's PoV for this story. With many thanks to [personal profile] tjs_whatnot and [profile] sabrinaphynn for the beta work. ♥

Observation is a way of life for Sherlock... )
kaalee: (and nothing hurts)
I just hit 30k on my John/Sherlock story.


Just felt like I needed to pause a moment and note this occasion for myself. I am, quite honestly, surprised that I've been able to keep focused on this for so long now. The good news: I can finally start to see the end of this, even though I don't know how it's going to end.

The other good news: I'm still completely ass-over-teakettle for them. Seriously, the quantity of time I've spend over the past months thinking about John Watson might be embarrassing were I someone that got embarrassed about such things. Good thing I don't. :P

anyway, go about your business. ♥

[also: holy shit. 30 thousand words. *hyperventilates*]
