Unrealistic Goal 1Mil

[deannie]

 So, according to Archive of Our Own, I've written 296 fics and 867,583 words. Part of me would love to hit one million words and 300 fics at the same time. 

That means, however, that my next four fics must average over 33,000 words, which is a little over my average fic length of 3,000.

Hee! Am a pie in the sky kind of gal--what can I say!?

Me? Exact (read: anal as all hell and borderline OCD)? Nah. It's just that I'm getting twitchy because the Losers fic I just wrote is below the average word count to reach 1Mil by 325 and now I have to write longer fics and I have some in the works, but I have series that need to be finished and they all have short word counts per story and.... *deep breath* Not exact at all. I'm sure I don't know what you mean.

I feel you on the "Oh, look how obsessed I've become with this current fandom as I outstrip all others." I started writing Mag7 in May of 2013 and it now surpasses all but SG-1, X-Files, and Sentinel in story numbers. Losers is shooting up quick, too. I expect it to rival Atlantis by year's end.

I'm considering posting an 'unfinished' story at some point—just a dump where all the bits and bobs can live. Some I just know I won't finish. Some I wish I had the mental fortitude to finish, and some are just good scenes with no future :pout:.
