Just followed a convoluted path to this from someone on Tumblr posting Mystrade fics.
These sound so fucking...UNF. I CAN'T EVEN. I want to read them soooo baaaaad. But after a few times reading incomplete fics/series and getting frustrated at the need for more, I have promised myself only read complete things.
I am just wondering if this is the sort of series that has a mini ending with each installment, or if I should track and bookmark this and read it when it's finished?
Ooo, I love stumbling upon things through convoluted series of clicks.
I feel your WIP pain. So here's the deal: all of the existing fics in this series are written to have mini endings and stand relatively alone. A reader might miss some of the backstory and nuance if she hasn't read the others in the series, but should be able to follow the main part of the story.
However, from here on out, things are going to get a bit more involved. The next installment is likely to end on a cliffhanger, and I'll mark it as such when I post it. But! The stories that are already written provide a degree of closure at the end of each one, and should not drive you mad and incite you to murder me for leaving you hanging. Um. I hope they don't incite you to murder me.
Awesome! I will put these in my queue to read :) I will hold off on the next installment when you post it, though. But I am definitely tracking this master post!
Just out of curiosity, does 'winter 2012' mean this winter/spring that we're in now, or the winter coming, like November/december? Just so I know when to check back?
Not to press or rush you in ANY WAY. I love your writing and look forward to seeing more.
Well thanks for checking in! I do in fact mean this spring. The next installment is in the editing stages, and should be out by the end of the month. I hope you enjoy! I always love hearing from readers.
New commenter here, previously silent reader. And here I was thinking I'd have to wait until November 2012. Thank you for the reassurance, I have been following this universe from afar, love the dynamics you have going here. Long may this fic continue.
Aw, thanks anon! I'm so glad you're enjoying the story. Thanks for breaking radio silence to let me know your thoughts. Also, I don't think even I could wait until November 2012 to see what happens!
