Fanfiction: I have readers in Guam?

[nebroadwe]

I'm having fun with FF.net's newly introduced "Reader Traffic" widget. It's a little cumbersome yet (figuring out who's reading what involves a lot of back-and-forth with the drop-down menu), but the "Breakdown by Visitor Country" chart is just plain cool, in a "Dude -- people all over the freakin' world are reading my 'fic!" way. Last month, I had hits from Malaysia, Thailand and Bulgaria; only five days into August, and I've already seen traffic from Finland, Mexico, Singapore and Guam. Mind you, that's a drop in the bucket compared to the readers hailing from the US and UK, but still -- people all over the freakin' world are reading my 'fic! Logically, I knew this must be happening, but it's a different experience laid out in blue and orange.

I actually do have an idea for another Ed-in-Munich story (possibly from Alfons's POV, because it covers some of the same characterological ground as "Ubi Sunt Gaudia") as well as an Ed-in-Paris story from Hohenheim's perspective. I'm just waiting on the time and inspiration. I really want to finish up "The Weight of the Paper" and "Errands of the Eye" first (though I'll probably get sucked into the EdWinry Fire and Ice Challenge again. Too many ideas; too little time ...).

Poor dragons. I did click, but it doesn't seem to have done much good. Sigh.
