Well...
First of all let me say 'holy insert inappropriate word here !'...never did I expect to receive a respond in the quantity and (more importantly) the quality in which you all gave...I could go one by one and comment on each review but that would take another six pages. Thank you very much and all that jazz! Some of your reviews were awesome..especially the ones I almost got a tear out of!..Everyone knows the greatest thing for a writer to see is feedback about his work.
BUTTTTT...as the English proverb goes... "All good things must come to an end"
And I think that this last chapter ended the entire story off rather nicely. However I do feel a tad remorseful
that I will be leaving everyone off on a cliffhanger.
Now, as for the future... A sequel would definitely be a good choice and one I would be leaning towards, for there
were some surprises that I never actually got to incorporate...and some loose ends I never got to tie up.My first foray into fanfics seemed to somewhat be a success, which kicks ass...however the whole reason I did this
whole thing was to honor a debt to a friend, which I did...but I'm not sure I see myself continuing to write.
HOWEVER (again.lol) There are a couple hopeful options:
A) I might team up with a certain friend of mine(one who proof-read each chapter before its release) to write the sequel or an entirely new story.
OR
B) A friend might be writing the sequel...or an entirely new story...Under the same pen name
OR
C) I suddenly come back out of no where with 3 or 4 chapters of the sequel/new story
So bottom line: Swallowed in the Sea is DONE...and whats next for the story is outlined above...its all shady but I'm sure something will come up...so keep my pen name on the alerts list, or just keep your eye out for it...
Again, thanks to everyone who read and reviewed, really kicked ass and made confidence in my writing style.
And props to Danni too for the constant bugging, nagging and all that warm fuzzy crap..and helping to proof.
So, yeah thanks du
