Briefly: I hope you all had lovely holidays. I have been completely absent because I, not even all the way recouped from my lung infection, have come down with the flu. Fa la la la la.

It was a sad year for fic; here is last year's list so you can compare. (Only 40 to 9; it's not that tragic . . .)

2008, in chronological order:

    Fundamental Forces (Tara/Angel, R)
    Unlikely (Fred/River, PG-13)
    Things That Are or Aren't (OFC Slayer/OFC Watcher, PG)
    Vessels (Cordelia/Darla, NC-17)
    The Way Things Work (Cordelia/Gunn, NC-17)
    The Sin Eater (Buffy/Angel, PG-13)
    A Place Called Home (Angel/Spike, R)
    If You Drive Me Back (Buffy/Angel, PG-13)
    A Brief History of Time (A Love Story) (Buffy/Angel, R)

Happy new year.
