Oh. My.

A chapter of a fanfic I wrote is currently available on the internet, where anyone could read it. I thought I would be excited and thrilled, if in a slightly terrified sort of way. Instead, I felt mostly shocked. It is done. The audacity! And, this is the next step to becoming a published author. I don’t feel ready for that, but I never will, will I? It must not stop me.

I want to to thank you. Even if you are not reading this in April of ’26, that chapter is up because of you. If it were not, you would see that it has been so close to ready for so long and wonder, “why is it not done yet?” I didn’t have a good answer to that question, so I fixed it. If you are here in April of ’26 … I have no words. Please accept my gratitude.

I have two schedules for posting. The first one is when each of the remaining chapters will be published. The second, more frequent one is when I will have each chapter ready to post, to prove to myself I can do it, and can without waiting for life to slow down. It never will.

Thanks for being here, no matter when it is. Good luck to you in the next step towards your dream.
