Mer's Place

It doesn’t feel like a year-end unless I follow sheep-like and add my round-up to the list. Fortunately, I did a year-to-date list at the beginning of August, so less than a page of stories to deal with!

Stats:

28 stories (30, if you count “James at…” as three stories)
87,621 words

Mind you, I have roughly 30,000 words written for the next Big Bang Challenge. If I count the first section, which is finished but for the proofing and could stand-alone, I can round that up to 95,000 in my head.

Happy New Year!

Because all the cool kids are doing it...

I started compiling this to satisfy my own curiosity, but it was an awful lot of work (procrastination), so I thought I might as well post it.

And I wanted to say how wonderful it was to have found such a great community of writers and readers. I'm not as involved as I'd like to be, but I still feel connected to people all over the world in ways I could never have imagined before.

In summary:
30 stories; 97,892 words - if work hadn't got in the way in the first few months of last year, I might have broken 100,000
Longest story: 12,983 words
Shortest story: 100 word drabble
Apparently instead of going on vacation last year, I wrote about House.
