Nyanko's Basket

I just posted a batfam fic, after many bouts of "I hate writing it's so hard why do I do this to myself." And then I was like "whoa, is that the longest thing I've ever written?" So I decided to go through AO3 and calculate some stats.

- Since 2014 I've written 378k words, apparently! Spread out over 70 fics, the average is 5k. I'd probably be willing to reread about a third of these.
- Longest series: 37k
- 41 fics under 5k
- 21 fics 5-10k
- 6 fics 10-20k
- 2 fics over 20k (one is the newest one, and the other is a Steve/Tony one from 2018 that I enjoyed writing but no one enjoyed reading because it's not the dynamic that Stony shippers wanted, and there wasn't really enough Stucky in it for Stucky shippers lol)
- highest number of words written: 72k in 2021
