Washington Black by Esi Edugyan
I don't remember how this book ended up on my list, but I'm glad it did. Rather different from my usual fictional reads (...I don't think I remember the last time I've read something set pre-1900s, if we're not counting the Bible intermissions, ha), but Wash has a fine point of view, and I enjoyed following him through so many different atmospheres and parts of the world, and especially his connections with Big Kit, Titch, and Tanya.
Other Media
A little over an hour way from getting caught up on Critical Role, I am, and I've already spilled some thoughts. I think I continue to be in happy disbelief regarding everything about Beauregard.
I'm on *switches tabs * page 6885 of Homestuck. It has been a fun riot, and yet I'm glad I'm reading it exactly when I am. I can see plenty that would have put me off if I was following it as it updated, or that would have been dealbreakers for a younger me, but now I can just brush aside the few parts I don't like and I enjoy the whole thing is. I have so many faves and several ships, I'm going to read so much fic once I'm done :D
Writing
Have some TSCOSI and some Critical Role ficlets, I guess. I wrote Dragon Age fic for the first time for Trick or Treat, which was a nice time, because Purple Hawke.
It has been an interesting experience writing as much fic for exchanges as I have in the past year (I think I might be at like > 6 fics across accounts), with writing fic I've really wanted to write for a while and also fic that could have turned out better. I'm psyched about this year's Yuletide assignment too, and there's a treat I really want to write. But I think after that it'll be time for a break from exchange sign-ups. Too many ideas on the back-burner I'd like to actually use.
