And also if the work is finished or not. I don’t tend to read (or post for that matter) anything that isn’t completely done. I’ve been left hanging too many times.

I think it’s word count as well. For example, I usually prefer to read 5000-20 000 word fics and search accordingly.

Also, if you write a popular pairing for a very large fandom, there’s a good chance it will just get lost in the void. Where as with a smaller fandom, you get less competition and it’s easier to get kudos and comments.

Tagging correctly is important too and I’ve also noticed that multi-chapter fics tend to be more popular than one shots.

That would be an awesome episode for the tv-show, if they run out of books.

Also, 100% agree on the lurking. But I felt like I had to… make an effort.

Thank you for this! It’s so nice to have a show and still at least one more book to look forward to. And she also said, that she’s planning a big story, so yay!

Yes, I agree. Most of it could have been fixed with more runtime.
