Damn, these are stark numbers. I'm enormously grateful to have found my way into the last category. This business isn't easy. But few things are more fulfilling in this life than sharing your stories with the world.
Out of 10K authors, only 300 finish a novel, 60 end up getting published (including self-publishing), and one or maybe two eventually have a single title that sells over 5K copies (lifetime).

Truth. This one was special.
Musical episodes are, perhaps, one of the most contentious topics for scifi/fantasy series. Sometimes they work. Sometimes they don't. Inevitably they cause a fervor. But there's only one thing that happens in my memory banks when I hear/see someone say, "I've got a theory. "

Damn, that is one hell of an optical illusion. @AJamesMcCarthy is a master at astrophotography.
Bonus shot from my latest capture of the ISS transiting the sun: One of the captured frames sat right on the limb against these background prominences. The ISS is so iconic, I'm going to miss it when it's gone.

Hype engaged! This is one of my favorite books of the last decade. Extremely difficult to turn into a movie, but after seeing this, I'm optimistic. I'm not surprised that, like in The Martian, they're beefing up the Earth scenes; I assumed that would be the route they'd take.

I'm a huge supporter of fan fiction - it's how I got my start in writing - but fan fic writers should know the score going in. You're playing in someone else's sandbox by the IP owner's indulgence. You do it for the love of the source material, but you don't own it.
