Mama's got her grove back! After months of struggling to string two words together, I managed to write five fics, that's right, five, in three different fandoms. This COVID thing really thew me for a loop. I was floundering a little bit anyway since the death of my father and most recent hyperfixation, but the isolation was really getting to me. Then I attended a webinar on documenting the current COVID crisis and launched the COVID Memory Project at the historical society where I work. I've been driving around the county taking pictures of signs. I've interviewed over a dozen people about their experiences. Not only has it gotten me out of the house, it's allowed me to feel less helpless. I'm taking control of the narrative and it has helped more than I ever imagined.
Anyway, on to the writing round-up portion of our post.
Agent CarterAll the World's a Stage -
Dottie had cleared out all her belongings except for the dead body under her bed and Angie was starting to wonder if she actually knew anyone as well as she thought she did. She knew she wasn’t the best actress in New York, but she was starting to think she hadn’t even been the best one in the building. (Angie Martinelli, Peggy Carter)

Trapped in the Closet - Kate was never afraid to come out to her father, but she is now. Episode tag to the season 1 finale. (Kate Kane, Mary Hamilton, Luke Fox)
Black Lightning (TV)
Maybe Baby - "Ever think about what kind of power's you and Grace's kids would have?" Jen asked, raising possibilities Anissa had never considered before. (Anissa Pierce/Grace Choi, Jennifer Pierce)
Sleeping Beauty - Grace had been in coma for over a month now, but Anissa still couldn't help thinking each visit that this would be the one where she woke up. Maybe today it would be. (Anissa Pierce/Grace Choi)

The Hero Was You - Benson likes Troy and Troy likes Benson. Great! Now all Benson has to do is figure out what to do about it. (Benson/Troy)
Wow, all that content was super gay. Kind of fitting for Pride Month, I guess.
I signed up for the Eat, Drink & Make Merry exchange, so that will be my next project. I also signed up for
femslashficlets folktales tropes challenge, so expect more wlw content down the road. Feel free to suggest a pairing and I may even feel motivated to write it now that my crops have been watered and my depression has cleared up.
