I’ve sort of mused before that it’s a shame AO3 doesn’t keep more stats. I’d like to know, for example, how many words I post in an average month. Since I write in multiple programs (Gdocs and scrivener, principally, but sometimes notepad too, and occasionally the notes app on my phone) I’ve got no real way of seeing how much I write in a given week or month– it’s normally spread out among half a dozen to up to about two dozen different documents anyway. I used to religiously keep revision histories, but Scrivener doesn’t support that, not that I’ve noticed anyway.
Anyway. I’ve been working for about a year now I think, in dribs and drabs– oh, over a year, I first posted about it on Tumblr last July– on a Bucky/Clint buddy story that grew into a pretty explicit threesome PWP with Natasha. It’s 15,000 words long now.
And it’s done.
So I’m doing final polishing, and by final I mean, it’s a draft on AO3 now. I just need tags and titles.
And I’m stuck on titles. So does anyone want to give titling suggestions? Or help me come up with tags? Or, shit, just get a preview I guess?
I got it temporarily up on a GDoc with comments turned on, so. I at least need to get a title on this thing.
If you’re not into Gdocs or whatever, just wait, and it’ll be up on AO3 later this week. :)
