Between the Light and the Darknes ~~~Chapter 34 - The End~~~
Rosebud1773:
I smell a novel writer in our midst... Just spent 9 hours reading straight through...sounds like a good book to me...eye strain....omg...it burns...lol Even paused in starting my triple layer fudge to read...and forgot all about it. More, more, more..the fudge is depending on it....
Astral Faery:
Ack - sorry - missed comments again. It's been a hard week :( Sorry for my late reply.
Lola - thanks for reading - glad you enjoyed it.
egghugger - lol - that probably would have helped, huh?
RJ - LOL - you always crack me up.
Rosebud - Why thank you! That's quite a compliment. I was actually going to try to turn it into a novel, but it was kind of short. But then I felt pulled to make it into a sims story. 9 hours!? I guess it's plenty long enough then, isn't it? I'm glad that it kept you reading for so long (that's what every writer wants), but sorry about your fudge. I'm a chocoholic, and there's little more tragic than ruined chocolate.
Rosebud1773:
LOL...didn't ruin the fudge, just never got it started. White chocolate, butterscotch and regular chocolate....I think I'll have some sugar overload.....and more story..hehe. By the way, a novel need only consist of 100 pages to be classified as a novel, but a good rule of thumb would be 200 pages to avoid the much feared 'short story'.. You've got a nice start..keep up the great work..
Astral Faery:
Sugar overload always sounds like fun, especially when we're talking about chocolate. I was really stressed out yesterday while dragging my kids around grocery shopping, and picked up a Ghirardelli fudge brownie mix (with fudgy icing). I can't decide if I want to make it today, or wait until Monday when everyone is back at school so I won't have to share, lol.
I think it topped out at between 130-150 pages after I finished the ending. I could probably lengthen it if I went back through it and put in more detail in lots of spots - especially the beginning. I wrote that a long time ago and it could use some polishing. I probably should have done that while posting it, but I was too lazy, lol. But it's something I'll definitely keep in mind. Who knows, in a couple of years maybe I'll have a hardback copy of it sitting on my shelf :)

Not forgetting the fact that, without the pictures, you'll need extra text to describe the scenes taking place ;) Depending on the pics, you might not need to compensate in some places, but in others where you let the pictures speak, you'll need your thousand words to replace them ;)
