Fics on AO3

I thought it might be interesting to go back and do the AO3 top ten meme a year later and see what's changed. So, here goes

List your ten fics at AO3 that have had the most hits.


1. Firsts
Pros. A series of vignettes of firsts in Bodie & Doyle's lives. #1 last year, and still holding that position.

2. In the Bleak Midwinter.
Pros. My Pros Big Bang story from last year, and the latest in the Comfort and Joy series. New to the list and the archive this year.

3. Happy Endings.
Pros. Bodie's just returned from Africa and trying to go legit; Doyle's a young copper trying to make his mark. Was #2 last year.

4. Down a Dark Desert Highway.
A Knight's Tale/Hotel California crossover. A Yuletide story. Slipped from #3 last year.

5. Nothing Worth Having.
Sherlock Holmes, RDJ movie-verse. A Holmes/Watson/Mary story, and it was nowhere on the list last year.

6. Exile.
Pros. My only Pros novel, with Bodie undercover in Ireland. Newly posted, so it wasn't on the list last year.

7. And the Sky to Sleep Under.
Tombstone. Wyatt Earp/Doc Holliday slash. Another Yuletide story. Was #4 last year, so it's had a big drop.

8. An Open Book.
Sherlock Holmes, RDJ movie-verse. My only other Holmes story, Holmes/Watson this time, and also new to the list. I figure this one is riding the coattails of Nothing Worth Having.

9. Vigil.
Pros. The second last story in the Comfort and Joy series. It's dropped from #7 last year.

10. Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas.
Take That RPS. Mark/Robbie, Howard/Jason. One of two TT Christmas stories I wrote last year, this one is an AU with Mark and Robbie as teenage runaways. I'm happy to see one of my TT stories has clawed its way onto the list, and I'm rather pleased it's this one.

Interesting! It obviously takes a while for word to get round and then things take off! I'm glad the TT AU is there! I think Exile will climb so try the numbers again in twelve months!

I love the way your top 10 is a reasonable reflection of your interests/fandoms you've mostly written in although Yuletide is one of those things that always skews results... and Holmes is just a megafandom.

Okay, now I am going to gave to reread these and I don't think I've read your Tombstone fic so I'll have to give that a go.
