The founding and 12+ months subscribers represented about half of the entire paying subscriber base. Next time, I'll expand it to all subscribers. I didn't know how many questions I was going to get so I wanted to limit the pool to make sure I wasn't flooded with questions! I think next time I can manage a larger pool of questioners, though that does mean I won't be able to answer all questions I receive.
I wrote about some of those numbers at the end of the first year. You can check it out here: https://www.thewrit.ca/p/the-state-of-the-writ
