Khar is taking down
her EP blog. According to her blog post, it will be up through the end of the month.
She is going to publish a similiar muuuuch shorter version. EP is approx 1 mil words (wow!) published version will be approx 200k. I love this fic and am gonna try to re-read in the next 11 days because I can't imagine something one fifth the size will be all that similar. She said it's ok to save it for personal use (as in don't mass distribute) but the only way I know to do that is to go to file > save as from the web browser.... It wont let me copy and paste all the chaps into one doc. Oh well, there are worse things. *
Just thought you all should know.
A few months ago when I was reading EP I typed my gmail address into the "subscribe" box on Khar's main blog page. I managed to get from Chapter 30 on, so I have it in Google Reader. Not sure why I didn't get the previous chapters--maybe someone more tech-savvy knows. I thought about copying and pasting the rest of the chapters because I love this story so much, but then I figured I may not have the chance to reread it anyway, so I might as well wait for the abridged version in the book and hope its got enough of the original to satisfy.
On another note, I just finished a fic and am looking for a new one to read.
Twice as Long as Yesterday sounds intriguing if anyone would like to send it my way! I was also considering starting
Tropic of Virgo--anyone have an opinion on this one? I'm really late to the fanfic party, so I guess I'm lucky to have read the original EP. I'm so sad that I missed out on CW&IA since everyone seems to love that one! If anyone happens to have a copy, I would be so grateful! Any other suggestions would be great!
Thanks girls!
EDIT: Okay, so I started reading the first chapter of
Tropic of Virgo, and it just didn't pull me in. Definitely in need of suggestions. Or, I was thinking maybe I should take a fanfic break and start
The Hunger Games...
