As this feels like a sort of adoration meme towards AO3 (and because I do adore AO3 so much), I thought I'd do it. This combines my love of stats (numbers? that fit together? DONE!) with my love of kudos. So much wonderfulness!

Most of these are some of my first works in the Clint/Natasha fandom, back in the days when there weren't many stories of that pairing out there. Now, I'm glad if I get a couple of hundred hits. These will probably always be my top five stories by hits.
Ah, but this does bring about the sticky subject of kudos. YET AGAIN! But I'm just shaking my head and rolling my eyes because no other fandom seems to care for the kudos button much. Or else I truly am a sucky writer that writes a good summary that lures people into the horrible den of squalor that is my story only to have them flee before they ever read it. Because why else wouldn't you click the kudos button? Was it so horrible that you have to go wash your eyes out with soap and find a cute kitty video to clear your memory? Why don't people hit the kudos button? WHY?
For instance, An Ad in the Sunday Paper has been clearly marked as a poem but apparently 1130 people have clicked in and immediately clicked out. In this instance, I went from 10% all the way down to 1%. EEK! I'm almost surprised that I didn't get horrible reviews telling me that I should quit writing.
I must hurry and find more numbers to put into order so that I once again feel better about this project.
This last weekend, I went on an overnight excursion with co-worker Beth. Her husband was out of town and she wanted to go to a bead show in another town and she invited me! We had a lot of fun. The bead show was small but that was good because, if it had been any bigger, I would have stood in the middle of the room with a twitch in my eye as I tried to figure out where to start. We also went to Michael's where I bought even more stuff! Then we crafted in our hotel room until the small hours of the night. I made several projects and have several others laid out, ready to go when I get the 1)equipment and 2)courage.
One of the projects I've been working on is woven wire bracelets and other types of jewelry. Check out these heart pendants that I hope to duplicate... someday. I should post pictures of the stuff I've made to date but I've been lazy about it.
Just as I've been lazy about getting on LJ in a timely manner. Sorry about that!
