My cosplay costume has got the sleeves on it. I'm currentli battling against the collar. If lucky, I'll finish the collar tomorrow.
I actually finished TT ch 14 already. I'm rather happy with it. I even made a friend of mine to read it through to get an opinion out of it. And since she read it all on one sit (8000 words) without having read any of the story from before and without knowing anything about Inuyasha either and still found it good, to you my readers the chapter must be great. ;D I haven't updated it yet, since I want to get further into chapter 15 before I post ch 14 (ch15 has currently 1600 words down).
I'm having a bit of a trouble with TT again, on keeping up the suspense (mwahahaha >:D) so I've been working on Chain instead.
Chain's processing rather regularly, So far I've been managing a pace of one chapter per week, about. What surprises me are the stats numbers for Chain. Well, to be frank, Chain's stats numbers piss me off. Not because they'd be bad, because they're not.
No, I'm pissed off because Chain seems to be liked. Logical, isn't it not? Chain, so far, is quite your average, general sesskag fic. There's nothing that original in either the plot or the set up. Still, it has soon almost the same amount of alerts than TT, which has been around since 2006. TT, which is much more original and carefully planned. Meh.
Let's compare, shall we?
Tables Turned - Chapters: 13 - Words: 109,404 - Hits: 15,865 - Reviews: 112 - Favs: 66 - Alerts: 102
The Chain of Love - Chapters: 3 - Words: 14,143 - Hits: 3,511 - Reviews: 60 - Favs: 36 - Alerts: 90
So yeah, I'm just whining away since I myself like TT better and am very attached to it, more attached to any of my other fics since it's been around for so long. I guess I'm slightly disgruntled that there are a lot of fics similar to Chain out there, in my opinion at least, but none quite like TT. But I guess the people then want to read the general, average fic. Meh^2.
Cranky writer complaining, feel free to ignore.
Oh well. I'll twist Chain around soon enough. I have plans after all. EBIL PLANS!
Though I suppose I should try to get around to TT too, it's getting so good.
Chain will be updated tomorrow with Chapter 3. (I'm so far ahead that I've already started writing chapter 5 O_o How very rare for me, to be ahead the posting. I guess it's the summer holiday.)
Anyone up to buying me a new computer with a 2,4 GHz processor so that I could buy myself the Sims 3? The system requirements are just insane. >_<
