The End of the Game

Last chapter is now up: "Invalid Item"  It was a close vote, and then some other stuff happened this weekend, so it took awhile to get written and posted.

Obviously, the story doesn't reach a conclusion. I mean, I could have done something that would have tied it up—had Will run over by a truck, say—but there's no fun in that. But I'm tired of this thing now, and I suspect people are kind of tired of it too, so today brings the last chapter in the storyline. There's no poll attached to it.

I said I was tired of it? I am, but it was a lot of fun, and you guys and your votes sent it spinning in some pretty challenging directions. I'd like to do this again at some point. But for now I'm going to return to the traditional style of writing what I want and sending it where I want to send it. It might be a few days before I resume, however.

I'm going to leave the just-concluded storyline posted for a while as a separate chain of chapters in my portfolio, so that basic and non-registered readers can still find it. But after a week or so I'm going to delete it, and the storyline will only be available as part of the interactive itself. But ... I am going to continue to double-post new chapters going forward, so that basic and non-registered readers can still find new chapters without having to fight their way past "servers busy" messages to get into the interactive.

For a quick link to new chapters, bookmark or remember to check this page: "Invalid Item" . I'll occasionally post a reminder here.
