Fanfic reading habits for 2005
I don't know which scares me more -- that I have the means to do a statistical analysis such as this, or that I have the desire. I want to blame it on the way my job has warped my brain, but I think really it's probably just me.
In 2005 I read 51 fandoms, although the top 4 (Starsky & Hutch, Gundam Wing, Herclues and Yami no Matsuei) accounted for about 75% of the total volume. Hell, S&H by itself was 60% and I only started reading it in mid-August.
