Borrowed from [livejournal.com profile] lost_spook, because if she does a meme so must I, apparently ;)

1. Your 3 fanfics with the most comments:

First Shoots - Little Women (15 comment threads)
Travellers' Tales - Swallows and Amazons (9 comment threads)
Purple and Crimson and Golden - Anne of Green Gables (7 comment threads)

Yay for fic exchanges! That's two Yuletides and a Fic Corner.

2. Your 3 fanfics with the most kudos:

First Shoots - Little Women (44 kudos)
Ridiculous - X-Factor RPF (34 kudos)
Movies and Nightmares - X-Factor RPF (30 kudos)

Now that is interesting - I wondered if the skewed kudos-to-comments ratios for the second and third might have something to do with them being RPF and people preferring more anonymity for those, so I went to look at the kudo leavers. Sure enough, for the Little Women fic most are from signed in users, while for the other two they're mostly from guests.

3. Your oldest fanfic:

The oldest posted is Hoping, Praying, Waiting (Little Women) from December 2009. The oldest on fanfiction.net is Hazel Eyes (Artemis Fowl), from June 2008... I know there's an older one somewhere on mugglenet, and I dug it out for another meme sometime, but I think we shall let it rest in peace this time ;)

4. Your latest fanfic:

Light in Shadows - Harry Potter. That's a ficlet from fandom_stocking... Hrm, I don't guarantee things were crossposted in proper order, but it's one of the latest at least.

5. The fanfic you're most proud of:

Ah, I never know what to say for these! I'm proud of Misinformation as being my longest, and one of the few with an actual plot. I'm also very fond of Words to Build and its look at Ginny's recovery. Oh! And Wilkilen y la Sombra/Wilkilen and the Shadow - my only bilingual fic, and I think I did a decent job of capturing the canon's writing style.

6. Your longest fanfic:

Misinformation - Chalet School (13331 words). You have no idea how happy it makes me that the word count is a palindromic number :D
There's also this dear-God-how-is-it-still-unfinished-we-only-had-one-chapter-left collaboration with my sister: June's Diary (Malory Towers, 61145 words), but she did more of the actual writing, I was more sounding-board/ignored beta/provider of sarcasm and snark (a fair bit of what Alicia says is mine).

8. Your 3 fanfics with the most bookmarks:

There's actually four with 4 bookmarks each:

Travellers' Tales - Swallows and Amazons
Words to Build - Harry Potter
Aftermath - Old Kingdom
Fairy Tales - Anne of Green Gables

9. Your Top 3 Crossover fics:

I only have two proper crossovers, Mirror Mirror (Doctor Who/Alice Through the Looking-Glass, 3 kudos) and Misinformation alternate ending (Chalet School/Harry Potter, 3 comments, 2 kudos), so I suppose those win by default! There's a few Firefly+Serenity, Hobbit+LOTR, entire MCU type of things, but I don't think those count as crossovers properly.

Meme sheep says baa!

It might, with the anon kudos as well depend on where the fandom lives - I get mostly guest kudos on any Henry VII/Elizabeth of York fics from Shadow of the Tower, which is because the fandom lives onTumblr & hardly any of them have AO3 accounts, although they read the fic there. But I think that it is probably also true about RPF, if more so for shippy stuff.

Hee, LJ is for rambling! :-)

CS fandom is a little weird - I've never come across one so locked away! I know [livejournal.com profile] freudesheim although nothing really happens there any more, but having done forums and newsgroups and LJ and Tumblr, I can't quite understand being solely-forums based. It's great for discussion, but awkward for everything else! (Even more so than Tumblr). Also it's inconvenient to me, therefore they should obviously come out of their forum and play on LJ and AO3! :lol:

You're definitely right about age of fandom making a difference - and sometimes with older fandoms that are picking up new fans, you can have two entirely different sort of generational groups based in different places. I suppose this has always been true to some extent, though.
