See, you said we should make sure to have a lot of time to read this last chapter, but I wasn't expecting to need so much time that, when I started reading just after lunch, I would be interrupted only halfway through act two by my parents calling me for dinner. And I'm not a slow reader, certainly not (Even if I did have to take a mental wellness break of watching Ren wrangle armadillos between acts, but that was just half an hour).

I was not expecting it to be quite this long. That it made me cry though, that I did expect.

‘i was not expecting it to be quite this long’ YOU AND ME BOTH 😂⚰️

like ok i knew going into it that it’d be a lot bc there was a lot i wanted to cover, but was NOT thinking over 30k words long??? it’s ridiculous. but i’d already used every line in the song for chapter titles so i couldn’t split it up any more. c’est la vie. glad u enjoyed it tho!! 💃

#hels to pay au #HTP ask #ik it might seem like false modesty to be like ‘hahaaa i can’t BELIEVE i wrote SO MUCH’#but it’s actually not the best way to go about things. dropping massive chapters #cuz i think a lot of ppl get intimidated by that kinda thing #and even if they read it they might feel like ‘oh man i can’t cover everything in a comment good enough’#and end up not commenting at all #but it’s ok i didn’t wanna draw HTP out any longer #not with clinics breathing down my neck HAH #it’s just a lesson in planning things out better from the start #so i can pace myself better and make chapters more uniform in length
