2017 in Fic

[respoftw]

It's time for my yearly look at the statistics page on AO3.....(I know there's still a day and a half left of 2017 but I won't be posting any more before 2018 so...let me have this, ok?)

First Up, I know there are inherent issues with using the AO3 statistics page by year (any fics that were updated in more than one year show up in the year they were last updated which does affect 2017 stats for me since 'In Harmony' straddled both years) but I'm going with it for ease.

So, without further ado...here's some stats from my 2017 fics

51 fics posted
163,209 words written
5,746 kudos received
947 comment threads
497 bookmarks
254 subscriptions
53,351 hits - a kudos/hits ratio of 10.77%

These stats are waaay down on 2016 but I wrote exclusively in SGA this year which is a much smaller fandom. My 2016 stats did seem to benefit from the larger SW:TFA and MCU fandoms. However, McShep has taken over everything and I'm cool with that!

Although, I did write one non-McShep fic this year!!!

Most Hits, Comment Threads and Bookmarks
Encore at 4,003 hits, 131 comment threads and 43 bookmarks

Most Kudos
In Harmony at 301 kudos

Least Hits, Kudos and Comment Threads
Staring Death In The Face at 227 hits, 28 kudos and 5 comment threads

This fic is also tied with least bookmarks (at 1) along with:
Atlantis, Sponsored by ACME and Making Out


Kudos/Hits Ratio
Taking the multichap fics out (because of skewed hits) my least successful fic was A Gift From Atlantis with only 6.7% of the hits generating a kudos (side note, I love this fic!)

My most successful, with 17.94% of hits generating a kudos was To Russia, with love.

Finally, my own personal favourite fic that I wrote this year:
Grow Old Without You
