Jul. 31st, 2018 11:49 pmI've been seeing an AO3 meme going about. I'm not going to fill it in, because my stories are weirdly skewed and most of them have very few hits, let alone anything else—basically, they got posted to AO3 years after they were originally posted to LJ (or wherever), and it's hard to imagine that there are many newcomers reading through popslash.
Of mild interest, I note that of the top five by hits, three were actually written by someone else—they were podfic collaborations for which I did the reading—and the other two were both Star Trek:TNG stories and thus written in the 1990s. Amazing!
The presence of a handful of podfics with my name on them has also inflated the word count, which is listed at 722,554. I have written a lot of words, but not as many as that.

I started a new knitting project yesterday, one more noteworthy in stature than the collection of asymmetric (and really simple) scarves I've produced lately. It's a complicated peacock shawl, and uses yarns that I bought at last year's Fibre East. And the charts are... well, for some reason the designer has chosen to present the five identical segments in a looooooong chart, instead of saying "this is the edge, this is the middle (x 5), this is the other edge" as charts normally do.
It's going to be an interesting knit.
