Yeah. Chapter one is almost complete.

will it be a long and monumental story (40-50 chapters) or a shorter one (15 - 25 chapters)? if you can and want to tell us that

Um, so far I've estimated 15+ chapters. I'm closely following season two, and as Chrisken put it so kindly in his challenge, BIG ANGST-fest. Of course, this is me we're talking about, there's going to be angst!

One thing I can say, though, is that this is not romance-based. Romance will be a secondary genre, and the story will be in the Alien Abyss. I'll make sure to post a link in the Stargazers’ story thread.

One other thing I'd like to add before I give too much away, this story will be a roller coaster of emotions. I'm basically demolishing the characters and rebuilding them.

thanks for the warning and I guess this means there won't be a stargazer dream ending for sure even though you are a stargazer yourself, huh?

oh, I'm already so excited!

I can really picture Alex doubting that he's the father and calling Iz a liar and worse (since you talked about demolishing the characters)

just ... there won't be any Grant/Isabel nookie, right? *looks scared*

I'm not quite sure about the couplings yet. Still working out the details.

aha ... not the answer I hoped for but well, that sentence alone will make the story very angst-filled for me

last spoiler question (for now): will all the character get demolished or only certain ones?

StarGazing101 · Post by **StarGazing101** » Fri Jan 07, 2005 9:24 am

Not all the characters will be demolished. Only reason is because I don't think I have written those characters enough or am capable of doing it properly.
