The Aphanes, Ch. 6 - "The October Crisis"

[tocryabout]

Chapter 6 is completed and up. Terrorism! Telepathy! Thoreau! This has it all.

Read it from the beginning here or go straight to ch. 6, "The October Crisis".



I am enjoying this fic, even though in many ways it doesn't resemble most fanfic, so I hope other people are at least reading it. Feedback of all varieties is craved -- particularly criticism.

Hey there.

I just wanted to drop you a line to let you know that I am reading "The Aphanes" and really enjoying it. I just caught up on chapters 3-6.

I've having trouble with delivering timely and articulate feedback recently. (I'll try harder with the next chapter.) But I bet there are a lot of people out there, lurking and reading and feeling too intimidated to comment.

It's just such a beautiful, realistic and I-don't-know, far-reaching fic.

I'm looking forward to reading the next part.

*blush* Thank you! I'm really glad it's working for you.

But I bet there are a lot of people out there, lurking and reading and feeling too intimidated to comment.

Heh. Honestly, it probably has a pretty tiny audience, because I hate going around and pimping it, but I like imagining that there are lurkers who are too overawed to comment. ;-P

Chapter six was really great. Oh wow! An XMMFF with Can-Con and Rheos! What more could I ask?

[to-cry-about.livejournal.com]

Heh, I thought the Rheos reference was going too far, but it was subtle, right? ;-P

The next chapter is all set in Ottawa, so expect the CanCon and regionalism to increase exponentially. I feel bad about it, but it's fun for me. Mutants in the Glebe = awesome, as far as I'm concerned.

just thought I'd drop you a line and let you know I've been following the story for a while and I'm really enjoying.

Thanks so much. I'm working on Ch. 7, which is long (by this project's standards, anyway), so hearing a nice comment is a great motivator.

Adding to the chorus! I've been following your fiction for a while, and have been loving it, and falling in love Joel, *hard*. I swear I'll email you an extremely detailed R&R when the hounds of hell stop nipping at my feet finals are over.

Ooh ooh ooh, please do! :-D I'm being held up with work myself, unfortunately.
