meme

I've being seeing this meme going around my flist and figured I'd give it a go as I'm trying to get back into the fanfic mindset:

I currently have 90 works posted on AO3. Choose a random number - no peeking! - between 1 (most recently posted/updated) and 90, and I will tell you three random things about that story.

AO3 doesn't have the majority of my fic, my LJ predates it by quite a bit and not only I did not move a lot of my existing stuff over, I do not crosspost most of my shorter things (drabbles, double drabbles and the like) there either, but there's a bunch of stuff, so have at it!

Ah, that one was a gift fill for a Magnificent Seven comm, I'm Fine" and other Exaggerations (http://archiveofourown.org/works/598780).

Mag7 is an unusual fandom for me, I really like the show's set up/characterization/etc, but a lot of the episodes are only so-so and I haven't watched them all despite it being 10 years old. I love the modern AU sandbox that fics get written in just as much, if not more, than the old west canon setting.

Writing in canon for this show is hard, you have to get the true sense of the old west dialog across without having accents written in ways that are annoying and you also have to check on phrases and period facts and things like that. I'm really happy with the way I managed it for this fic though.
