Continuations? · 11:12pm Aug 26th, 2012
I have been looking back at both of my stories and was wondering what people thought of a continuation for them. I have a resolution already written for Sleep Tight, My Love and I had been toying with the concept of possibly going on with Friendship in C Minor. I would really appreciate the feedback on whether you believe I should post the ST,ML resolution and continue Friendship in C Minor, or if one or both of the stories should be left as is. Thanks for your time guys.

Hmm... I honestly thought Sleep Tight, My Love was perfect as a One shot (as I believe it is, right?). Haven't read Friendship in C Minor yet... will strongly consider it, though.

It was indeed intended to be a one shot, but I did have several people mention that they wouldn't have minded seeing a bit more which kinda made me curious as to what others thought as well. Thank you though.
Come to think of it, it would be interesting to see! That probably didn't help anything xD, but you are very welcome

I personally feel as though Sleep Tight, My Love would work best as a one shot. IMO it'd ruin the affect you were going for by continuing it.
Friendship in C Minor on the other hand most certainly has room to expand. I kept feeling a ship would begin to sail, but of course it doesn't have the Romance tag. There would be quite a bit of possibility in terms of directions you could take it, it ended on a note that screamed continuity. Plus it's currently the first and only story I've read that featured Octavia, and I loved your characterization. If you don't intend to continue Friendship in C Minor, I'd definitely still love to see more Octavia from you in the future.

This is kind of the mindset that I was working with. I think Sleep Tight, My Love may deteriorate in value with the addition of anything else. I did, in a way, leave Friendship in C Minor kind of open ended because I wanted to possibly explore the idea of maybe adding more chapters depending on the reception it got, but if all else failed, the story could sit as a one-shot.
How would Sleep Tight, My Love have a sequel?

Not nesscarily a sequeal so much as sort of a resolution. What Spike does after, his afterthoughts, etc.

I don't think it is necessary.

That's what I was thinking. I did want to see what others thought first though, incase my suspicitions were just my own.
