Quick poll-let regarding NTLJ ch35 ...

[snorkackcatcher]

... for anyone who may see this before tomorrow: it's basically finished now (finally!) subject to a read-through for typos etc, but it turned out roughly twice the expected length (about 10,000 words/20 pages of A4 rather than 5,000/10 pages). It's the chapter where they set up and then carry out a sting operation to catch the person who's been trying to kill Ashford, and does split more or less down the middle into setup and execution.

So should I split it in half and post the two parts a week or so apart, or just post the whole thing now because I've been delaying too long already? I'm not sure what would be less annoying, so any comments would be useful. :)

I say post the whole thing now... but only because I will read it all in one shot... :P

I concur. But there's also an argument for splitting it up so that we can have 2 good days of NTLJ instead of one. Nah, I'd rather read it all at once. (BTW, May I friend you snorkackcatcher? I've been a lurker for a while and finally decided to stop being an internet wall flower:)

Random icon squee. Is that your baby? (and by baby I mean puppy, but they always seem to turn into small children...)

Yep, this is my baby when she was 8 wks old. She's 10 months old now and a complete handful. I don't even want to list the things she's destroyed on a Seperation Anxeity Rampage.

Sure, friend away! Always flattered.

Chapter now posted, not split. :)

[snorkackcatcher]

Okay then, it's posted, and I didn't split it. :) (I might do for FA, though.)

[eccentricpirate.livejournal.com]

Yay! *goes to read it all, despite the other stuff she ought to be doing*

Because I've never been able to do moderation I'd vote for the whole thing now. At the end of the day, though, it's your story and you must do what you think is best.

Thanks. It's posted, all at once. :)
