So, a couple of years ago, I challenged myself to write a fic (G-fic, to be exact) with a title for every letter of the alphabet (obviously excluding The/A, as any filing system would do). Tonight, I finally met my goal (with the posted story, Guilty Until Proven Innocent).
I'd like to invite all of you to try the same thing.
For me, it was realizing that I had a lot of story titles that all started with the same couple of letters. The challenge made me really think and produced a bunch of fic ideas that I seriously doubt I would have ever had on my own. It really gave my muse a jump-start!
Here's my list, in case anyone cares:
A
Alone
B
Battle Scars
Behind Every (Super) Man
Broken *
C
Clark's Heart
Clarkus Maximus
Contractually Bound
D
Doctor's Oath, A
E
Earth's Calling
Editorial Discretion
F
First Responder
Forgiveness
G
Guilty Until Proven Innocent
H
Heartache & Joy
How Lex Luthor Stole Christmas
Hunt In a Red October
I
I'll Keep Your Secrets
Incognito
Incredible Movie Experience, An
J
Just a Man
Just Say My Name (Lois/Clark)
K
Krypton's Legacy
L
Last Son of El, The
Late Night At The Daily Planet
Lemonade Stand, The
M
Miracle
Make Love, Not Warcraft
N
Nobody's Hero
O
Operation: Cupid
P
Passing Of a Legend, The
Prayers Answered
Q
Questionable Evidence
R
Red Bikini, The
Roadside Assistance *
S
Seed of Doubt
She Wore An Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini *
Since Clark Kent Came To Town
Skis, Snow, and Secrets
Snowbound *
Soul Desire
Spark of Discovery
Specimen S
Strike (Lois/Clark)
T

Congrats! That's quite a feat! Thank you! I think I started this right before or after the girls were born. So it's been two-three years in the making!

Wow--very impressed! I've really enjoyed a lot of these stories. Me too. I think Questionable Evidence deserves a Kerth Award. Has anyone else nominated it, because if not I will.

Suggs, it takes more than one person to nominate a story for it to be nominated. That's why it's so important that everyone nominate their favorite stories! So, go for it!

I nominated it... I love that story! That's an impressive feat, DC. Well done!

Funny...I looked at my list of stories a while ago and thought the same thing. Well, I'd have to include both sides of the boards, but I already have Q, X, and Z. I'll consider this challenge a long term goal!
You can find my stories as Groobie on the nfic archives and Susan Young on the gfic archives. In other words, you know me as Groobie.

Thank you, everyone! It's actually quite a relief on my own mind to have finally accomplished this.
Funny you should mention Questionable Evidence. If not for this personal challenge, it wouldn't even exist. It purely came about as a "I need a Q" moment. But I do love that one!
Groobie - I do hope you take on this challenge too. Heck, I hope everyone does!
