Fandom: War and Peace

OMG these were hard. Partially because Anatole isn't exactly in most scenes. But beyond even that, just quality issues. I have the movie in a file which works fine on my movie editor from which I can snag caps but there are subtitles and things but even worse, the quality isn't as high as it could be. Now I got the new, higher-quality DVD set for New Years but for some reason the damn things just won't convert correctly (or at all) from VOB to AVI/DiVX. Soooo...I have to try and snag caps straight off the DVD, which is annoying. (Another cause of angst is the sudden lack of vidding capabilities with this movie which I hoped would be solved with getting the DVDs. Sad day.) Anyways...

First of all, Happy New Year!

 

Not quite as many firsts this year as last year, but certainly a fruitful Yuletide it has been! My official assignment fic was the most read and I feel like this is the mostly because it is in a fandom that is not microscopic. Or rather, it is tiny, but anthropomorfic – especially of this sort – is not a canon that needs much acquainting with and most people are familiar with it on default anyways. I didn’t pinch hit this year but I did write one more fic than last year, had a larger cumulative word count (over 21k) and 3 of the 5 treats I wrote were full-length. Two of my full length treats were written for the same person who has not commented, I think they didn’t comment on their main fic either but did on a Madness treat. It’s ok, I’m not letting that get me down, especially since all fics have reviews!

 

So, stuff I wrote:

 

 

( Under cut to save the flist. Everything from het to slash, from PG to R, from Russian Lit fandoms to Music fandoms to athropomorfic! )

 

 

 

As a final note I’d say that my love for Russian lit fandoms is unavoidable, I suppose, but thankfully there is such a thing as Yuletide where I can get a bunch of rare-fandom/Russian lit fandom love. One day, some wonderful person will write me that War and Peace fic (for anyone stalking around for NYRs, my birthday is on the 26^th of February :p).

 

Well, another New Year and another Yuletide gone by. Like last year, I’m gonna start missing it very, very soon. A fantastic joy from everyone, thank you, Yuletiders, for being so awesome!
