— Mean Girls by KATSEYE

I'm so mad, but I still can't stop laughing at this godawful cover. There's so much to hate. The game menu screenshot. The awful, awful kerning. Whatever is going on with this layout:

FUTURE AGE

A NOVEL BY

. PLUSHBOOKS

At least I've apparently written a "Number One Best Selling Novel," LOL. Not sure what category it was best-selling in. "Pirated fanworks" isn't exactly a Publisher's Weekly heading.

(If you didn't see my post about my pirated fanfiction that someone was selling on Amazon, it's here. This is the book cover from the pirate listing. I've already filed a DMCA complaint to get it taken down, but I saved the cover because it's hilariawful.)

An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works

Well, folks, after 20 MONTHS of weekly updates (save the two week hiatus this spring when my computer was being repaired), we've reached the final chapter of CotFA. Phew, that was a long run.

Those of you who have followed along and commented/kudo'd, thank you very much! Those of you who were waiting to start reading a 330K monster until it was complete (a totally valid choice!), you can now read it all in one marathon session if you like. Those of you who only came here for Torchwood and don't even go to the same school as DMC... Look, I have a lot of fandoms, okay? 😅 (And you don't even want to know how many more are represented in my WIPs...)

I'll be posting the companion piece/my Awakening zine contribution Some Are Born to Endless Night later this week, and then... goodness, I have no idea what's next. Maybe I'll actually take a couple weeks off from writing? Or maybe I'll start one of the eight thousand story ideas I jotted down over the past year but couldn't work on because I was still editing CotFA. Who knows?

First, though, I'm going to go curl up in bed and read something I didn't write. 😊 Catch y'all in the morning.

Hello :))

I just read through your Children of the Future Age in 2 days, then found your tumblr and just had to tell you that I absolutely love it! I'm not much of a comment writer but it's just one of my favourite stories...

I hope you're doing well and thank you for your amazing fanfics! 💕

Thank you so much! I'm glad you're enjoying the story. 😊

CotFA chapter 73

Got home late from a double feature at the drive-in, so it's technically already Sunday, so I went ahead and posted the next chapter of CotFA. Judging by the comments on chapter 72 (including one reader counting down the days, LOL!) some people have been waiting anxiously for the resolution of last week's cliffhanger. Knock yourselves out, kids.

There are just two chapters left after this one. It's almost over! I'm almost free! Not that I haven't loved writing this shamelessly indulgent story, but it's been more than a year and a half of weekly updates, and after nearly 340,000 words (not counting deleted scenes), I need a break. 😅
