I ♥ you. No, seriously, your stats posts are awesome.
One (or two) thought(s) about the somewhat low average word count in Glompfest: For many writers in H/D fandom this has been an additional fest besides the ones they usually write for in the second half of the year. Some writers, I am sure, decided to "write something shorter" for Glompfest, because of time and scheduling constraints.
Also, every single prompt was claimed and written for which must be a first for any prompt fest, and - to me - totally astounding. Now, I signed up for Glompfest last minute, to claim one of the last unclaimed prompts - I wouldn't have written for the fest otherwise. I knew that I wouldn't have the time to write a long, fleshed-out fic, and I assume it was similar for other people. :)
