So, I know this is kind of late, but I wanted to talk about why things about The Space Between have changed recently. I consolidated all of my chapters so that each chapter on AO3 is one part in the story.
When I first started posting The Space Between I had estimated (through number crunching of what I had already written and what I had planned out) that there was going to be 18 Parts with around 181 Chapters. I recently posted Part Eleven (And I'll be linking this with Part Twelve) but I've completed writing Part Fifteen. All added together I have 121 Chapters already, and I still have a lot more to write. Right now I have up to 19 planned, with at least up to 25, and probably some more than even that.
If it was going to be ending soon, then I would have kept the chapters unconsolidated, but with the lengthening of the story, I decided that it would be better to have each part put together so there isn't a huge list for everyone to go through.
And when I started consolidating the chapters, I didn't realize that I'd be deleting the comments either (Which I still have in my inbox, because I'm a comment hoarder). I had already consolidated two or three parts by the time I realized it, and by that time it was already too late to stop.
I do appreciate everyone who reads and everyone who's left comments, and it makes me feel so happy that people actually enjoy it, because I enjoy it. I started to write it only as a means to get better at writing and at first didn't have any intention to actually publish it, but I'm really glad that I did, not just because I want people to read it, but because it's really helped my confidence by just having it out there.
I haven't written much since I was a teenager, but I really hope to change that, and I really want to both improve my writing and to write consistently.
In sort of miscellaneous updates:
-There will be three more members coming to the Space Between (two if you're reading this after Part Twelve).
-I recently (8/3/16) hit 250 pages! (Whoo!)
(Let's hope for another 250 pages)
-Upcoming Parts:
Part Twelve: Alone (August)
Part Thirteen: Sorcery and Specters (September)
Part Fourteen: Winter's End (October)
Part Fifteen: Homecoming (November)
(Winter's End & Homecoming may be subject to swtich)
-Wars or Trek?
-EDR
