Ok, so two new chapters sometime soon. Sweet. Now going to reread The Return in my unbridaled antisapation.

Looking forward to your continuations, but please, take all the time you need to make it up to your usual high quality.

Part after split volume two? I'm confused. Right now I'm working on ch19 and ch20.

Will there be a title change after the split? I'm not sure you can do an exact Repeat of a title on Fanfiction.net

So how will you label it showing that it is the next part after the split?

Thanks. Yeah, I've got the scenes for 19 written, but am going through it now. For 20 have a couple more to write.

What? No, I just gave the title's I'll be using for ch19 and ch20.

Ah I see. My writing style has a progressive detailing. More info here So I had a list of scenes and plan that I wanted to write. This collection of scenes was under the working document "pr19". As I was writing out the scenes and events I found that the document was getting above the length I use for Return chapters.

This made me investigate the chapter and see if I could find a good place to split it into two chapters. I found this, and thus what was in one chapter document became two.


This isn't too uncommon. One can see how chapters 15&18 and 17&18 are paired.
Also I often move when a chapter ends depending on length and in-story events.

Sorry between falling asleep last night and still waking up this morning I didn't notice the point of confusion. Splitting the overall story will it become labeled The Return Volume 2 or Return 2 after the split.

Or will you make a new title that the next group of chapters would be under?

I see your confusion.

No, I'm not splitting the story. I split a "behind the scenes" chapter. The readers, you guys, will see it as two chapters (19 and 20).

Me too. Although I DO wonder what Sunny means by a "behind the scenes" chapter. Looking forward to whatever that is though.

On another note, I was rereading The Return, and I was thinking after BlackSky left in it, " I like her. I hope she returns as a character in the fic." Then I was reading the part where Happosia was interduced, and I then I thought, "I love what Sunny done whith Happy in this story." And then this hit me, What would BlackSky's reaction to Happosia be? I mean, he act's like a feaking Incubus for crying out loud, and can drain women AND tries to drain Sucubi. I think she'd like the old coot. Find him, amusing, and maybe intersting because he can drain.

My point is, I want to see them meet. Even if it's not how I invisined it, it should be VERY intertaining, at the very least.

So, think you can fit that in Sunshine? If not, oh well, I understand, but I just thought it could make a good filler scene IF BlackSky IS comming back at any time for a vist.

Thank you for writng this, and good bye for now.

Generation Lost has been mentioned a few times recently and I'm wondering how is the next chapter on that going? Is it one you are actively working on right now or just something waiting it's turn to return from the back burner?

I have a few scenes written for the next chapter maybe about 30% written or so.

I will get back to that story. Return is my primary, but GL and SH are secondary. The rest WB, GSM, RM, and some new stuff are thrid.

It's always nice hearing that my 3 favorites aren't in the third grouping.

An update on status.

Ch21 of The Return stands at over 19,500 words written and most of the major scenes save one written.

Strained Harmony 3 is also active again.

Also I'm going to try to post more in this forum, things in RL have gotten a bit busier though.
