My X-Men fanfic novel, Days of Becoming, has been read by 523 people. Many more have begun it, but 523 have consumed all 400,000 words. Additionally, approximately 100 people have downloaded the book in pdf format. Soon I will have it available as an ebook. There is a huge spike in readership on chapters 17 and 18 which are the highest romantic point of the arc (actually, I might dispute that - the events at the end are highly romantic but in a much more painful and complex way). I like the idea of people going back to re-read the chapters that made them feel good. I've done that.
The X-Men: First Class story I posted two weeks ago has been read by 266 people.
All of these numbers are heartening and encouraging. I am so glad there are people sharing this journey. When I finish my current non-fanfic novel and begin serializing it, I expect the numbers to be much lower, at least initially. *sigh* Then I'll just be an ordinary writer.
