And here I end my first attempt at a space-related story.
It was fun, and I loved hearing from all of you.
For the talkative ones, I got to see the story through your comments, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I also enjoyed some of the conversations we had. Although I do apologize for not handing out parachutes for some of those cliff-hangers.
For the silent voters, I appreciated your quiet dedication, and I thank you for each and every vote. It meant a lot to me.
A huge thank you to all of those who helped me catch errors and polish this story up to create this little gem. A round of applause to my main editors - @hippopatacampus, @Medley_Lover, @Misain, and @JaneTheFirefox; all of whom spent more than a few hours helping me with my persistent typos and questionable grammar.
It was my first attempt at writing in response to a prompt – and even though I had intended to create a short story, once it surpassed the 100,000 word mark, I decided that it was a teeny tiny bit too big to fit into that category. :)
I have yet to master the fine art of short stories. They have an odd tendency to explode into several hundred thousand words... lol.
I have no plans for a sequel, although there are plenty of openings for a side-story if I decide to come back to this world.
Some statistics on the story: This was my eighth book. Writing Time: 4 months First chapter was posted on April 1, 2018.
Completed: July 6, 2018
~127,000 words (Roughly 224 pages in a word document – single spaced)
Fanfiction & Spinoffs:
I've had a few inquiries, and yes, people may write fanfictions and spinoffs as long as proper credit is given. Please list my story title and username in either your summary and/or Chapter one.
Example: My story was inspired by 'A Starship Called Starsong', which was written by @CrystalScherer.
If you want, when you post it, let me know and I can add it to my reading list which is dedicated to such spinoffs.
Please note that I do not accept offers to translate my story as I may need those language rights if I ever publish it.
