I'm (finally) posting the Line War over at AO3. (Yes, it will go to HLfiction after I finish at A03 and have nice clean code to paste...) I've posted everything through " 'Oops!' Is A Four-Letter Word." The scary part is that "Prelude..." to "Oops!" clocks in at 285K words. (The Arrivals & Introductions stories clock in at 157K but I haven't ( Read more... )

I've been reveling in your organizational efforts! Am downloading the stories as you post them, and can't wait to have the whole thing on my ereader so I can indulge in one long glorious reading orgy!

( one of the neat things about all that wordcount? It doesn't FEEL that long while you're reading. The story just flows along & you just want more & more, and for it to never stop...)

::facepalms:: Ohmigod, I wrote so MUCH. (When this is all over -- whenever that may be -- I'm going to total up the word count... and go whimper or get some wine or maybe both.) However, I'm glad you're loving it. I'm pretty much doing this so it is easily available for ereaders.

(Really? Oh, *GOOD*. That's a wonderful thing to hear -- thank you!!)

Yay! :) Granted getting them all organized must be driving you nuts, but still, I'm so glad to have them on AO3 where I can download them to read whenever I want on my iPad. :D

And springwoof is right, the series doesn't feel anywhere near like it has the word count it does.

The worst part, and what's *really* taking so long... is rereading them to make notes on who's in which story, and what extra tags to add, so that it is in fact as easy to find (say) all the Stormy stories as my occasionally-order-obsessed mind desires.

You're welcome, and thank you, that's really reassuring to hear!

Ooh, more to read! I applaud your organizing all the fics.

Thank you! And? More to read *very* soon. I have my last beta back on an Aidan-verse fic. I just need to condense a scene *down* (instead of expand it out, which is more usual) and post that mother!
