These started out as monthly reports, right? Oops. Let's see how I'll do this year.

On the AO3 posting front, I'm at January 2009. I'm at 346 (up from 333) works now, which means I've added 13 fics since the last report. In addition to fics that I'd already posted before, I posted Weird, Heart over Head, Dog Tags, and Reading Glasses.

I've managed to write every day in 2016 even if it was only an alibi sentence of three words. My total for the year was 403165, which sounds and is a lot, but recording the D&D adventures is an easy but not as satisfying way to get words out, so my plan for 2017 is to write more normal stories and also to post some of the growing backlog.

I hope everyone had a great start to the new year. I've reached my writing goal on December 30th and finished the year with 200268 words total.

On the AO3 posting front, I'm still at December 2008. I'm at 330 works now, which means I've added two stories since the last report. In addition to the one mentioned above, I posted Bar Acquaintance.

I've signed up for 150k for the year. I really don't want to fall behind this year, and ideally I'd write every day even if I'm ahead. Even "any word count is okay" days add to the total and more often than not it goes significantly over the goal, which would be 298 words each (non-November) day, and is already down to 295 ;)

I also have generated quite a backlog of fic, so it should be possible for me to post a new fic every week. We'll see how that works out.

On the AO3 posting front, I'm still at July 2008. I'm at 275 (253) works now, which means I've added twenty-two stories since the last report. Most were newly posted (but previously written) stories for the 10 year anniversary of SGA. In addition to the above mentioned, I also finally posted my Extreme Big Bang story Protector.

I just saw that SGA Santa is running for the last time this year. I have conflicting feelings about this. On the one hand this will be my last chance to participate and I'd like to support SGA related fests (especially since we've lost many over the years), on the other hand, writing for someone always makes me stress about what they'd like and that they might not like it (and also stressing about giving feedback for my gift; I think a gift deserves some detailed feedback and sometimes I have a hard time with coming up with that). At the moment I'm tending towards not doing it.

Things are still going quite well:

On the AO3 posting front, I'm still at November 2007 (for the McShep and Hewligan stuff; I'm further behind on Joe/David). I'm at 191 works now, which means I've added fifteen stories since the last report. Three of these were new. In addition to the above mentioned Porn Batte fics, I posted Like Fine Wine (McShep, PG).

The Don't Break The Chain method is still working quite well for me. I wrote every day until February 19th when I did something for work that I really wanted to finish before the latest release of our software. Since the chain was broken, I'm giving myself a few days without writing to concentrate on finishing my SGA Reverse Bang art.

I still need to finish my Extreme Big Bang story, so that'll be priority one after finishing the Reverse Bang art.

On a personal note, today is my 10-year anniversary at the company I work. It's amazing how fast the years go by.
