Done. · 3:11pm Jan 24th, 2023
I'm done. The next chapter of my ready-to-be-published version of the Humanity Within tale is complete. It still needs to go through editing, and there's a few changes that I made in later chapters that aren't consistant with what I established in earlier chapters, that require slight tweeks to be ready, but the story's DONE. What I've Done, now tentatively retitled Nightmares of the Past, is ready for editing. I'll be hunting for a cover artist to slap this bad boy together, and you'll be able to purchase it soon.
If you want, those of you who've been here for me this whole time can preread it, and hurry that editing process along. It's always helpful to have a few extra pairs of eyes around to spot your mistakes, and given the size of this beast, it's going to be a doozy to edit. The original was 95010 words. This bad boy? Well, she clocks in at a chonky 181508 words. She's a beast, so if you have a little free time you'd like to spend, and have gotten frustrated at the lack of content I've put out recently, please sent me a pm, and I'll get you a link. Just... don't distribute it before print, okay? I've put a lot of effort into this, and if it gets out before I'm even able to make it to print... Well, it kinda discourages me from making more of these, okay?
Well, it's been a long time coming, and I put my heart and soul into this, so I hope you enjoy it. Let me know if you guys have the time and inclination, and I'll surely have something out far faster than if it were just me dredging through this sucker. Thanks again, and have a wonderful day!
I would have loved to preread it so much, but I must pull all my attention to getting PhD in chemistry. Anyway it would be better if native speakers will get a swing at it first. Good luck with the book.
5710409 I completely understand. Education comes first, don't even worry about it.
no se si lo dijiste y no me enteré o era implícito pero...
¿las versiones editadas se subirán gratis aquí en algun momento o seran siempre algo de pago?
5710472 I'm really quite sorry, but I only speak English.
5710472 Just put it through translation. Let me put my answer through, hold on a sec.

I don't know if you said it and I didn't find out or it was implied but...
Will the edited versions be uploaded for free here at some point or will they always be a paid thing?
(Google translate)
5710472 No los publicaré gratis aquí, pero eventualmente planeo hacer que al menos la versión digital sea gratuita para descargar. Lo que es más, es que eventualmente planeo publicar mis historias en el dominio público ANTES de morir, para poder ver lo que otras personas hacen con mis ideas.
5710503 Just sent you something through Google Translate as well.

thanks for the reply
5710511 No problem.
A quick question, sorry if you already answered this. But are you containing the mlp version or no? I'm simply wanting to know. By the they good work on getting a book deal, I'm proud of ya.
5710540 The mlp version will stay here, and I plan on continuing it. It is how I hash out new ideas, and the only reason I haven't been doing so this whole time is because my attention was 100% devoted to my published work. The second book is done, so my attention will shift back to the fanfiction stuff, given that that's how I prototype all of this stuff.
As for book deals, I have none. I know no one in the publishing industry, which is largely a industry that is less about what you write, and more about who you know. I have published on Amazon's self publishing, though, and the digital version of that book is cheap (2.99 USD). So, if you could spare a few bucks, I'd be very appreciative, as it will encourage me to not only write more there, but write more here as well, given that, as I've stated before, fanfiction is how I work out my ideas in the first place. Who knows? If my books become popular, I could make writing my full-time job, which would mean the content here would basically never stop.
You nearly doubled the word count!
I look forward to nomming on that for awhile.
5710563 Almost! But I may end up adding more during the diting process, so who knows how big it'll be by the end!

I'm glad, 'cuz it's been so long that I had to look at your stories list to remember why I was Following.
I forgot if I ever asked, but do you have any plans to try and adapt The Nautilus Protocol to a non-fanfic?
And maybe continue the fanfic version?
5710794 Yes, and yes.
