Revisiting the AO3 hits meme!

Apr 17, 2013 19:48


I've been thinking about doing this again, and wondering when, because there have been actual points lately where the exact time I did it would determine which fics were in which spots. Because I guess that's what Writing A Popular Pairing In An Active Fandom will do for you ( Read more... )

I love this meme! I love a lot of things statistics-related. And you have charts!
I'm tempted do it, but I am a little ashamed of my hit count compared to everyone else posting theirs.

holy fuck, apparently people like BDSM E/R: Ha. I, um, plead guilty? You know, I had no intention loving this series, since it's modern AU, and not my characterization of choice, so I put up resistance, but it's just too good. If I say it inspired me to do more constructive kink negotiation IRL, it would be ultra creepy, wouldn't it? Yeah, I thought so.

Heh, you should have seen me the year I won NaNoWriMo. I had so many charts for that. :D

Don't be! What's a lot of hits differs for each author! For some, 100+ hits is a huge deal. And it's totally different by fandom, too. I have a tiny thing in Sherlock Holmes that has a lot of hits just because it's Sherlock Holmes.

You know, I had no intention loving this series, since it's modern AU, and not my characterization of choice, so I put up resistance, but it's just too good.

Oh, god, the characterization in this fic. I had the serious problem of, when I started it, have no intention of keeping going, I basically wrote it in a couple hours of spewing words. Which led me having to do some serious work to basically resolve characterizations and such. *headwall*

So don't take this as any kind of Good BDSM Practices manual. ;)
Don't worry, I know this. It's not about the situation or something. Just... I don't know, encouraging me to be less shy about kink negotiation? Without any other connection to your fics, except you write it well?

100+ hits certainly is a lot for me. I'd say it's because my fics are in French but even when I try to translate them in English, it's not that higher. ^^ OK, I'll do the meme! Statistics! :-)

That's cool! (No offense meant to you! It's just that after some stuff that's happened, I feel the need to point out where the BDSM has problems, just in case someone thinks this is how you do BDSM. ;) )
