"it was a long road getting from there to here... A dark road... A road so broken and wide you had to wear two sets of shoes just to make it to the other side..."
But I did make it. With a final flourish, my work, Electric Excavations, is now marked as complete and fully posted on Ao3.
It ended up coming out to 387 chapters. Over 1.3 million words. (For context, that's over twice as many words as "War and Peace", about 300k more than the entire Harry Potter series, and almost three times the word count of "The Lord of the Rings")
And I still have more to write someday.
For now, I will rest on my laurels and appreciate this accomplishment. This was the first book I've ever made from start to finish (unless you count the comic book I made out of scrap paper and pencil back in elementary school--a Wolverine comic if you're wondering).
Cheers
Realized maybe I should add a direct link to the story in case anyone sees this and hasn't started on reading it (and would like to) 💖
