Is there a ficlets'n'drabbles anonymous?
Because, Internet, I think I have a problem.
I've been trying to organize as I'm the most redundant of pack rats. I'm not even a third of the way through the 'ficlets' folder, which is literally a mass of text files with bits and pieces of ficlets sometimes divided into fandoms. I have made it a goal to list the contents of the files (and have enlisted a spreadsheet as they are my friends). So far, there are 203 ficlets recorded. Some are posted! So that's good.
But many aren't. Or aren't finished.
It's a good thing I can (probably) make more ficlet collections on AO3. Though how I'll manage the crossovers...
This has been a fairly productive month for posting fic. Most of the output being Sherlock (and Molly/Sherlock). The non-Sherlock:
- Scott & Bailey ficlets - I found one aside from the 5 Weddings... one that I could post, and thus, there is now a ficlet stash for S&B on AO3. Janet/Rachel is the one pairing so far.
- Spooks Bits'n'Pieces - As with the above, I had a 'weddings' ficlet that needed posting. I also had a bunch of other random ficlets that weren't anywhere. Ros/Adam is the wedding one. Most of them are Jo and Ros and angst.
- In the Place Where We Don't Belong - Doctor Who, Rose/Thirteen. It got mentioned on tumblr and my brain exploded. I always did have a thing for blondes, ok.
I also added an old porn battle fic (Alice/Duchess from Syfy's Alice) to the PB IX collection (that was eight frakking years ago. WHAT.)
And the Sherlock:
- Clever to Fall Apart Completely - Molly/Sherlock porn shenanigans.
- Through Every Torn Curtain is Burning Violins - Molly/Sherlock end of the worl means dancing on beds, right? fic.
- The Sun Doesn't Shine Forever - Sherlock kills Tom fic (well, sort of). Basically, the idea was mentioned on tumblr, and it's not like I don't have a history of murdering unwanted fiances (poor Pete Shanahan, it's not his fault he wasn't quite right for Sam--that would be Vala). I'm actually wishing I'd waited and also gone with the darker idea I'd had (Sherlock kills all of Molly's boyfriends for her)
- Artless Words Spoken in the Quiet Dark - Molly/Sherlock, post-series 4/episode insert to The Final Problem fic.
- Sherlock ficlets and drabbles - mostly an excuse not to write full-length fic. One of them is That Time Sherlock Was a Werewolf.
- Veils of Memory Infected With Dreams - Molly/Sherlock established marriage. But mostly an excuse for writing Molly stuck in a creeepy foggy forest.
And now I shall put myself to bed. At least it's Thursday tomorrow.

And, hey, you go with it. I tend to post my ficlets separately and now I have like 520 words on AO3 and feel very embarrassed, as if at this point I should just go home or something.

I think, back in the day, that I did post a lot of stuff to ye ol' LJ. Which meant I didn't need to archive it anywhere else. But after a while, I just stopped posting (especially since half of what I'm finding is only snippets).
Well, and also, posting anything to fanfiction.net was (and is, a bit), arduous and time-consuming, and half the time, I would just be like "eh, it's on LJ, whatevs".
Only now, so much has moved away from LJ/DW, so it's different.
In addition to that, my other big (lazy) reason not to post ficlets as separate files (now I've seen people do drabble collections), is that I do not have to think up a title for each one. And let me tell you, I haaaate having to think up titles.
Which is a long-winded way of saying, if it took less work, I'd probably have ficlets as separate fics up on AO3.
(it's also easier to sort of hide the ones that aren't that great amongst the rest.)

Ficlet/drabble collections are all right when they're one fandom at a time, anyway.
Titles for random ficlets are definitely the worst! I can't remember which mine are when I get kudos emails.

See, I have been guilty of posting ficlets for multiple fandoms at once before, and it never occurred how annoying that was until I was looking for specific fandoms/pairings at AO3 and now I'm somewhat guilty about having done so in the past.
Now at least I know better.
And I can avoid titles. =D
(and not remembering what is which is also an issue.)
