Apocalypse Blog’s 200th Post!
The 200th post has just gone up on the Apocalypse Blog! How awesome is that?
Wow. It’s boggling when I think about it. If I had only done one a day, I’d be two-thirds to the finish line! As it is, I’m just less than halfway.
It feels like forever since I celebrated the 100th post. The posting has slowed down some since then, I’ve had pneumonia, but it seems to have settled down to a post a day now. The posts are gradually creeping longer and longer, but I’m trying to keep them to a reasonable length. Some days it’s easier than others!
Just because I haven’t done it in ages, here are some fun stats for the Apocalypse Blog:
| Month | Posts | Words | Posts / Day | Words / Post |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| December | 27 | 15,335 | 1.8 | 568 |
| January | 41 | 28,257 | 1.32 | 689 |
| February | 41 | 25,228 | 1.46 | 615 |
| March | 33 | 25,365 | 1.06 | 769 |
| April | 30 | 21,500 | 1 | 717 |
| May | 28 | 21,695 | 1 | 775 |
There, wasn’t that entertaining? Whee!
Here’s to the next 100 posts. Lots more to come, faithful readers!

More words per post, but less posts per day… Hmm. 😀
Do you feel like you’re really into Faith’s character’s head now or was she pretty solid from the beginning?

My goal was to do one post per day, but there’s just so much to say at the same time! Argh. 😉
She was fairly well sketched-out from the start. I had done a brief bio on her before I started, so I knew what to pick on and where her big buttons were. Her relationships with her family, friends and workmates. All that kind of stuff.
Now, I know her so well that she’s easy to write. There’s always more to learn, but that’s part of the fun. 🙂 She has changed a lot since we started out, I think, though she’s trying not to.
I think it’ll only get boring when there’s nowhere else to take her, emotionally and mentally. For now, I’m still loving it. 😀
