The Oncoming Storm: Betaed and Reposted (Complete!)

You all must be sick of this by now so mommy is hiding this behind an lj-cut. Click if you like but be warned, this is all old news. LOL.


Unbelievably, after over a year since its first post, I have The Oncoming Storm completely betaed, recoded, and cleaned up! Finally! LOL.

I'm sorry it took so long. That was my failing, no one else's. Many kudos and utmost love to snakeling for first taking the reins, then [livejournal.com profile] soullessminion for tackling this monstrosity. [livejournal.com profile] trtmx saved this mommy from insanity by teaching her some simple LJ shortcuts.

So, while this isn't the sequel, I had truly wanted to get this fic betaed, tweaked with everything everyone taught me here. Thank you all for your great feedback, your constant support and for being such great friends! I was afraid to post on LJ long time ago. You've all made the experience so rewarding.

And because I've never had this before and it still tickles me to see it, I'm posting again here the very first fanmix I ever received:

Many hugs to [livejournal.com profile] bassair for this! I still smile seeing this!You can click the image to get to the fanmix.



This is so awesome! I was sent icons as well which my neighbor's son has taught me how to put in my iPod so I have pretty every day with my music!

And if any of you are still interesting in reading the fic again (it's still very long though), the first chapter is here:

PS: And yes, I am working on the sequel, determined to have betaed by mid-March thanks to a clever prod from [livejournal.com profile] annaklaus.:)

going to sound cheeky, ungrateful and rude :-/ but, do you have 1 page that has links to all the parts on it? Rather than going page to page to page. If I have 1 main index page, I can DL it to my PDA and read. Otherwise, I don't have the patience. (I know me). I went to Tag, but it takes me here.

I disagree. It didn't feel long at all. I was sorry it ended so quickly.

I think "long" is a matter of perspective. I have read 25k stories that took me all day, and felt like it took a week. I have read 228k stories that took little time (for me) and felt like they read so fast.

Quality of the writing. The fact that the author has taken the time to get it reedited and beta'd, makes it more interesting for me to read.

Due to brain problems, it takes me a while to read stuff. So I like having it all together. Otherwise, I forget what I am reading. :-/
