Nov. 8th, 2012 06:01 pmA Question for the Committee
Here's a question for those of you who post fic on AO3: What is a reasonable Hits to Kudos ratio? If say, 95% of your hits don't leave kudos should you assume that nobody likes it? Or is 5% a pretty good number? What's average? Or do you even worry about the ratio? How can you tell if you're winning?
Update on the NaNo Front
I've managed to be at or slightly above the word count goal every day so far. ::knocks wood:: I am hoping to keep that up (or maybe get ahead) because I know that there are going to be some serious interruptions before all is said and done (and by "serious interruptions" I mean "cooking Thanksgiving dinner for 18+ people" and "my best friend is having a baby and I'm one of her birthing coaches.") So, yeah -- ahead would be good, although so far I've just pretty much been managing "not behind."
I posted one the things I wrote this month night before last (this is not unrelated to the AO3 Kudos/Hits question above.)
Marvel Avengers Movie Universe/Captain America: The First Avengers "Can't Get Warm." Rated Teen. 1358 words. Bucky wakes up cold on a table in a German camp, and he can't get warm. Events in Captain America: The First Avenger from Bucky's POV.
DVD Commentary Meme
I have the DVD Commentary Meme on offer here. I had fun doing inline commentary for "The Lost Boys." Come play with me!
