can I ask what's going on with your fic 'Strangest'? You're restructuring? So like some edits, before the story moves forward? I'm just confused, but ecxited. I'm like a dog who can tell the humans are doing something and I want to he involved but I don't know what's happening 😅
(also I really hope I'm sending this to the right person)
I AM the right person! XD I have long wanted to edit Strangest--there are some weird things I was doing like refusing to use speech tags for some reason, still ironing that out, and then just like...I knew what I meant, but rereading years later there are lines that are confusing?? I found one I had to reread like five times where Steve was doing something with a towel?? Flipping it?? Something?? and I still have no idea what, so I had him actually dry his hair XD;;
Anyway, little edits, I'm not deleting dialogue or anything people would notice, it's just something I've been meaning to do, and since I'm rereading in order to finish the dang thing, I might as well fix them when I find them!
WHILE I'M REREADING, though, and the thing people who've read it WILL notice (annnnd unfortunately the thing Ao3 is going to excitedly email everyone about), I'm breaking the chapters up into smaller pieces! It's always been hard to keep track of what happens in what chapter for me, hard to find a passage I'm thinking of to check back, and I've heard from people that the long chapters make it hard to find their spot between devices, so I'm breaking the chapters down to around 5k. That means some chapters will stay the same (chapters 1&2 were around that mark already) but since later chapters were getting looooong, they'll be broken into two (or three) smaller chapters each.
I'm rereading to finally finish/finish editing the final bits, though, and I hope to post smaller chapters of those too, so maybe they'l be faster than if I wait to post one of my novella-length chapters!
THANKS FOR BEING CURIOUS and liking my story!
