Continuing to answer the writing meme questions one at a time.
ghost2 asked me #7 from the writing meme:
7. Care to share a favorite crack fic?
I'm not entirely certain, but given that this is a writing meme, I assume the question is about my favorite out of the crack fics that I've written. Anyway, it would be very difficult to name an overall favorite crack fic, because crack is high on my list of favorite genres, and I've read a lot of it, and my definition of "favorite" can shift quite a bit depending on which fandom(s) I've been consuming recently, what my current mood is, what I had for dinner, etc. It's likewise very difficult to name my favorite out of the crack fics that I've written, and honestly, if you come back and ask me this again in a few months I might change my answer, but as of right now, my current favorite crack fic out of what I've written is:
(drumroll) . . .

I like how it turned out, and although it has a "fandom" attached to it (this Tumblr post), it's really original fiction written to a prompt. It is, by far, the best piece of original fiction I have ever written -- certainly the funniest, anyway -- and it has actually given me thoughts about trying to write more humorous original fiction, and possibly even trying to get that humorous original fiction published somewhere. Although I would have to come up with a funny prompt of my own, and not put in a bunch of saxophone links next time.
