AW, Chapter 15, Stepping Stones (and other things)
So, the whopping (and I do mean whopping) Chapter 15 is up. I thought of splitting it, but once you read it, I think you'll see why I didn't. No historical notes, really. It pretty much speaks for itself.
The first 4,000 words of Chapter 15 (with a notable exception in the first couple of paragraphs) repeats Chapter 1 of Rat and Sword Go To War. Then, it goes off in a different direction. I had really wanted to get this chapter up before Rat and Sword as they are so closely aligned and this is how I'd intended it -- the AW update first and then Rat and Sword. I'll start posting Rat and Sword later in the week on ff.net so they can all be read together in one place.
I'll take this opportunity to signal boost the writers and artists of the Narnia Big Bang stories. They are wonderful and please check them out. Every one is a wonderful, original contribution. I've so enjoyed them all and tomorrow is the last one! A huge thanks to snacky for running a wonderful Big Bang and to heverus for my beautiful art.
Also, REMIX. I didn't do the official one, but musesfool has open season Remix Madness 2012! Post if you are willing to have your stories Remixed and then pick a story from those who have signed up! No word limit! No assignments! No pressure! (and if you've ever had the urge to fix anything I've done, HAVE AT IT). I have signed up and I noticed that snacky edenfalling therck and vialethe have as well as others whose work I know and love.
Errr, right, signing off now and it's what you were expecting. I think this fleshes out a lot of Rat and Sword, plus stands on its own.
