She's looking at you. Yes you. And she is judging you with her eyes. There is no escape.
Is anybody reading? Or am I better off investing my time in other projects?
The view counts are low and interest seems... almost dead. I'm kinda worried.
Edit: Seriously pondering the option of nuking Luna's Lacunae completely and leaving the first story as a stand alone piece with an ambiguous ending. That's probably what is going to happen.

kill it, possibly with fire

Look, this is a very serious issue for me. I'd rather not have sarcasm and jokes here. Thanks.
well, there the jump between the end of the first story and the beginning of the second that massively impacted the two, but while we get to se te effect, the detail of what happened are far to vague and slow to emerge, at least to the first chapters
To be honest... I haven't. I didn't read the prequel, even though I intended to, so I couldn't read Lacunae.
I read it but do what you want
I gave it a shot but gave up after chapter 4. It's well written but just didn't grab me the way your other stories have. I'm currently enjoying the chase, the weed and MFD and would love if you focused on those or went back to "How I Learned to Stop Being Harmonious and Learned to Love Chaos" which I thought was a clever story that hasn't been updated in something approaching a year.
That being said, write what you want to first and foremost!
3273353 you do what you feel is right. If you feel that the story can't continue without some exceedingly contrived reason, then put it out of its misery. I probably am not the best one to be asking since trying to scale Mt. Chase and its sister peaks is just too daunting for me.
In all honesty Kudz, I like your work and would like to see more of your work on Fish In The Sea or PLSS. But, seeing as how you've got your epics to chip away from the marble in their own time, I reiterate my above point of "you do what you view as the most logical decision."

And that is what I am trying to do. Time allocation. I only have so many hours in a day.
Ugh, it's going to kill me to axe this one, I really loved this story.
I've come to the point where I prefer to only start into a story if it's been marked as complete. Over the years, I've built up about five to six hundred stories on this site that I started reading but are still marked as incomplete, and they're all renting space in my head until I can give them closure.
You write very long pieces, with lots of detail and continuity that makes reading them in one go preferable to going back several times and re-reading them to glean all the significant details. You have several stories that I've already invested myself into reading that you seem to have let go. I can only speak for myself here: I want to read Luna's Lacunae and more of your work, but I want it to be finished before I do.

Fish in the Sea is a Chase-Verse story... and the amount of planning that was required to go into that story was daunting. It's current fate is: Unknown.
For me, it's more of a 'I have too many stories in my read later list, it's going to take me a billion years to reach any particular story' problem. But I'm assuming that is just my problem, nobody else's. So, if you think it should be murdered, do it.
With regards, Req~
3273383 sadly, that was the only one of your attendant 'verse stories that caught my attention. Now, seeing that this is a sequel to a story, I found, to be one of the darkest on this site (and yes, I have read Fo:E and several spinoffs) and its premise being a very trigger-happy one that could have sparked reader disinterest. Another theory that could be a possibility, with your writing of a very large universe that is as dense as your namesake, is that some readers are turned off by your writing and feel that you are becoming Dark Tower level Stephen King with your ties into the story. I realize the fact that trying to write several different story lines are tough and sometimes you have you go outside of the tale in order to achieve a firmer narrative, but sometimes, all we want is resolution to plots we started so very long ago and have nothing to show for it. When your blockbuster series' prequel sits unfinished, maybe it's time to cut back the kudzu before it overtakes the buildings.

Maybe,
Oh great ! There are two options. You either stop a story I love, or you stop a story that I love.
Please, don´t axe Luna´s Lacunae. If you feel it, just slow down it, like Princess Luna Suicide Solution. Maeve is a great char, Luna is wonderfull, as always, but I understand your need to focus. Just put it on hiatus, ´till you feel you have enough for a couple of chapters. But don´t kill it, really.
I'm enjoying it, for whatever that's worth.

I really don't want to kill it. Writing it is almost therapeutic for me.
I'm with marcelojj on this one, Kudz. I'm enjoying Luna's Lacunae too and would love to see it continue. But you have to prioritize your limited time. I'd rather you shelve it for a while instead of kill it completely.

Some stories are written more for the author than the audience. That's not a bad thing, as long as you don't make a habit of it. Given the therapeutic aspect, I definitely think you should keep writing the story.
Keep writing it!
Even with my own issues with the story, it is something i find worth reading.
I like it, please don't nuke.
I am enjoying it.
No, please! Maeve and Red Russet are a dreamteam, and Luna's struggles are so heartfelt. I'd love to read more about their escape from Queen Oonagh.
YOU SHALL RUE THE THOUGHT WITH ALL THINE MIGHT
I hope you keep it going, even if you put it aside for a time.
Like a lot of your stuff, it's deceptive. People don't realize how involved and complex the story is until they give it a shot. On top of that though, Luna's Lacunae is a hard one to draw attention to because of the kind of story it is. It challenges a reader on the story page, and keeps it up through the story even as it draws you in with the dynamics flying around. Considering the severity of the first part of the story, I don't think you have much left to challenge a reader more than that.
You might consider making a more approachable story page that makes people curious. Perhaps cut the part about how important the prequel is to understanding the whole story. Those that really get interested will go read the first part when they are invested in what they've learned.
One of my favorite book series, The Sword of Truth by Terry Goodkind, wouldn't have gotten me hooked if I'd started on the first book due to slower pacing and less engaging. It was the second that snagged me to obsession and partial lack of sleep until I finished it.
Regardless of all else, I hope you keep going. I want to read more of Maeve, Luna, Red and the rest.
3273470 then keep writing it! even if not so many people are reading it, if you wanna write it, then write it. especially if it helps you in some way.
albeit comparing its viewer count and like numbers to the Chase seems a little unfair. like setting up a tirteen year old green belt against the Mountain kinda unfair XD. one is just so large htat it kinda hard to level it with the other.
personally, i do not read it. Though only because my focus here is the Chase. From what i have read, its quality as usual.
NO.
NO.
NO.
With the utmost seriousness, NO.
I don't mind waiting between updates, but PLEASE do not kill this story.
...
I am interested, but if my comments seem sparse it's because I don't always have the means to do so.
I love this story and look forward to it's updates! But if you don't feel like you want to continue working on it, do what you must. It is well worth the read, I will remember it forever.
It's easily my fav of all of your stories.
To be honest im just about half way through the chase xD god its long but i cant stop reading it xD
Hhhh ok i remember this i really like it.. dont you dare stop writing it i loved the first one and this one was getting good
Keep writing. It's an amazing story.
