Hi. My name is Kelly and I am an alcoholic.... no, I'm not, but I felt like I needed some sort of excuse for taking TEN MONTHS to complete uh, half of this fic. You see. It's 33,000 words. And I had to re-record it 4 times. Which is to say, I read it all the way through the first time forgetting that I didn't set the setting right. Another time half of the time the stupid fan was blaring in the background. The third time I... ha ha, so funny, yes, I laughed too, LOST it. Ha. Still funny. (Not.)

The fourth time may not be pristine but dag nabbit, at that point it'd been 6 months. Now I've spent four months editing, which is to say editing 30 minutes worth of output over the course of 2 hours of real time, hitting save, and going to bed with a headache and rage-on for my own voice. Then, three weeks later, doing it again. At this point I think I am married to this fic.

In order to give myself inspiration, I am putting out the first half before the second half is done editing. I am hoping that with a few comments, I might speed through this second half edit to not let you guys down and spend 3 hours a day over the next week or so and get it over with.

TO BE CLEAR:

None of this detracts from the fact that I love love love this fic, and still do, despite that I think I have it memorized verbatim at this point. LOL. It's wonderful and I love how friendshipper handles all of the characters, especially Keller. Plus, I really love the plot.

Hope you enjoy! (If you don't, Im going to shoot myself in the head. Or just, ya know... cry.)

Honestly, if no one comments? I probably won't finish. I'm not doing this to be a hostage taker, I'm just saying, if the interest isn't out there I don't think I'll finish. However, even if it's one person, I'll edit an hours worth a day if I have to and send it to you piece-meal if that's what it takes.
