Musings...
So, I was considering (and still am) turning my list o' women into a meme (similar to those "would you have sex with..." ones, but "have you written?" instead), and ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
lizardbeth_j (very innocently) suggested I limit it to only the women I have written.
The thing is.
See.
I've been writing fan fiction since 1998. And I have always had a thing for female characters (though Pete Wisdom, Jack O'Neill, Sam Anders, etc. have certainly wormed their ways into my heart). Which means I've written a lot of fic about a lot of women.
So, I could limit it to that, but I think I'm going to have to limit it further. No cameos, no background characters. Either protagonist or secondary/ensemble characters who have some sort of contribution to the plot (so, in, say, the Torchwood/BSG fic, Tosh and Sam Carter count, Gwen and Janet are only bit players and don't--though this makes the BSG/NCIS one difficult to judge, since it's truly an ensemble piece, so, argh--).
I'm also limiting it to fic actually finished/published.
On the flip side, I did a list of male characters at work and it's a bit shorter, though close in size to the list o' women.

That's okay.
Re: That's okay.
I was thinking about them the other day, though I don't remember why now.
