1. What do you think is your best story, and why?
My "best" story is always the most recent one I worked hard on. So today it's Deliver Us From Evil. I am proud of that story; it's some of the darkest stuff I've ever written. Maybe the horror elements are a tad overdone; I'm not sure. But the AU hangs together really well and even though it's been slightly Jossed by canon I actually think it still works with the new version of canon as well.
2. What do you think is your worst story, and why?
End of the World: Stargate SG-1, AU, Slave!Fic. It's an awful collection of cliches.
3. Which story did you enjoy writing the most, regardless of how well the end product has turned out?
Dreamwalker. It's a SPN AU and I wrote it so fast it felt more like channelling than writing. The story had been in my mind for a long time before I put pen to paper, and when I finally began writing it down it just flowed so beautifully. It's a rare thing: a story I wrote from beginning to end. Usually I write in a very disjointed way, and put the parts in order when I type up my notes. For this one, I started with the diary entry and ended with the dream, wrote the whole thing in order. And it changed very little when beta'd. I guess the story was just eager to get out there!
4. Which story did you enjoy writing the least?
There are several that come to mind, but I'd have to go with Restrain, Release. It was written for Sweet Charity and though I was happy to write what my buyer wanted, I had really hoped I'd be bought by someone who wouldn't ask for porn. I find writing pure porn so goddamned boring lately; sex scenes as part of a plot-ful story are different. A PWP isn't fun to write: it's just slog.
5. Which story has been the most popular? (you could measure this in amount of feedback, recs, awards etc)
Ironically, I'd have to say End of the World which is also hands-down the worst I've ever written (yeah, even including my HTLJ Mary Sues). Just goes to prove how much fandom loves badfic.
6. Which one is the least popular?
No clue. Well, if I go purely by the amount of feedback/comments, it would be Without Words: it's never had any feedback at all. But there are reasons for that: it's only ever been posted on my site, never on a comm or list or even my LJ, it's femslash, and it's a fandom I've only written in this once. If I remember right, it was written for a challenge of some kind; I seem to remember I had to include ketchup in the story somewhere...
