Who all wants a useless, poorly-labeled chart about some useless wordcount data? I'm feeling creatively bankrupt at the moment, so I want to share with you these numb numbers.

On the whole, Sloshing Depths had the highest wordcount (and the highest average according to another graph I made). Grow Ever Onward had a higher wordcount than Parched Lips and A Hunger Yet Unknown, but if you'll notice, the wordcount per part dropped as I wrote it, despite those very high peaks. Maybe I got lazy or bored, or maybe I was making each part's story more efficient. AHYU is still the odd one out of my series of series. It only has the second highest wordcount because of the amount of parts, since I hadn't decided that twenty-two parts is a good length for a series. Honestly, if I hadn't been so excited to start PL, I would have kept AHYU going. What a crazy world that would be. We might not even be at SD if I kept going with AHYU for longer and set that kind of standard. In any case, AHYU was more consistent in wordcount range, most of the parts being between 3000 and 4000 words. We'll see if Back for More sets any new records or bring back more interesting data. Stay tuned for when I do this again in a year, probably.
