Given that the year is half over, this seems like a reasonable point to look at what I've done, writing wise.
I've posted:
3 as yet unrevealed exchange stories.
1 Harry Potter pinch hit for Fandom5K.
3 shorts for Fandom Stocking (Labyrinth, Sky High, and The Pretender)
4 completed Amber stories, 3 of them in the House of Sulfur and Mercury sequence.
6 chapters of At the Edge of Centuries (Amber story in the House of Sulfur and Mercury sequence).
An uncertain number of chapters of We Are Where We Began (Amber story in the House of Sulfur and Mercury sequence). I can't seem to persuade AO3 to tell me when a given chapter was posted, and I'm too lazy to dig back through my drafts folder to try to figure it out.
To further break down my writing numbers for June and for the year:
June 2017
Total: 16546
Total for Amber related fics: 2501
Total for Auguries of Innocence: 352
Total for Weiss Kreuz related fics: 7519
Total for other fiction: 6174
Year to date (including 1 July)
Total: 98484
Total for Amber related fics: 62327
Total for Auguries of Innocence: 1120
Total for Weiss Kreuz related fics: 11112
Total for other fiction: 25644
Daily average word count, year to date: 544
The totals include discarded stuff and things I may never post anywhere. They do not include edits that added a sentence or two here and there because I'm not willing to do that much work with the book keeping.
The Amber related stuff has been almost all in the House of Sulfur and Mercury set of stories. The exception, "Paths for Getting Lost," isn't explicitly not in that timeline and would fit with that version of Merlin pretty well, but I don't consider anything set before the blue cave to be part of the set. I think that a big part of the high word count here is that I decided that I was mostly writing for me and not worrying about just how far I wandered from the canon storyline. I'm pretty sure that years of playing and running Amber diceless made that easier.
I'm not sure why I broke out Auguries of Innocence in my spreadsheet. Maybe just because I could without adding columns? I expect that, if I suddenly start producing many, many words on one of my stalled epic WIP, I'll break that out, too. I broke out Amber because I was writing so much of it last fall and expected to continue (as I have done) due to things I'd promised to finish and Weiss Kreuz because it's a fandom I keep going back to at odd moments and thought I might write a lot of.
I didn't expect that the other stories category was going to have such a high word count, but The Shadows at Her Will didn't fit anywhere else and is nearly 12K words long, so... It adds up. I've also written a couple of treats for exchanges that could only be counted in that column. Those two together probably add up to another 8K words. And both of the![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
pod_together stories will go in that column.
