insert "I finally completed so-and-so chapters" statement here
Yes, I finished Part 6. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out, little less happy with the final chapter. But maybe I'm just being too harsh on myself. I may have overdid it with the ellipses.
Anyway, I have no idea when Part 7 will come out. The thing is that I'll be attending university beginning of next month and therefore will be left with little to no time to write. Part 7 will probably be ready by summer 2021, but hopefully sooner. Who knows.
Good grief, I still have, like, 20+ chapters to write.
Good Lord, that's a lot of parts. I'd like to say you're overdoing it, but I did something similar myself once, so I can't.

Oh damn, you commented on my blog post. That's really cool.
Eight parts was always the goal since the beginning, which I guess is a lot but your chapters are much longer; though a lot has evolved and been expanded upon. By the looks of it this story will probably go over 300k words (compared to the initial projection of 200k words lol) with how much there is left to write. The thing is that part 7 is where the "real" plot begins. Parts 1–4 was the prologue, and parts 5–6 was a bunch of set up. But now things have gotten so complex, with so many characters and intersecting plotlines, that I find myself biting off more than I can chew.

Hah! Been there, done that. Don't worry, I'll be sure to criticize how needlessly convoluted it all is when I get to review it in 2022.

Haha, well maybe. We'll see. I'll try my hardest to keep the story clear and easy to follow, in spite of some prior bad habits.
