How goes the next chapter, Fel?

Post by J-Man5 »

Fel,

Hows life treating you?  Just starting to get an itch to read another chapter of Tarrin and Co.

I just finished HP6 and was sorely disappointed!!!!

I know that with the end of your books my only disappointment is waiting for the next one to begin.  
So faithful readers want to know how is chapter 2 of DB coming along?

Or have you been feeling any inspiration to write about Jason and Co.?

Either way I'm axiously awaiting.

BTW take a look at the topic in the Firestaff FAQ on the Black tower.  Thanks.

Again very thankful for the books.

At least I didn't name the topic "Next Chapter" or Chapter 2 of Demon's Bane or DB 2 or some thing like that.  

I actually tried to make sure that the topic title made clear that it was a question to Fel about the Chapter status.

I know some people are antsy about seeing Next and Chapter in the same topic but they really need to chill out!!!

Later,

I hadn't written at all until late last week, after I went to my cousin's wedding, and am now on page 6.

Before that I was spending extra time in EQ cause they put in new alchemy recipes that made it much easier to work on it, and I wanted to get my skill up before they nerfed it.  But farming Siren's Grotto got old real fast, so I'm back to just logging on when I'm bored and have nothing else to do.

My subscription for this month ends August 13.  I'm considering cancelling.  It's just not much fun anymore.  The only reason I even log on anymore is because of my friends there.

Why's that? I thought is was a much better one than number 5, which I disliked a lot! I think it's almost as good as Goblet of Fire, which is the best until now.

Just disappointed.  Was hoping JKR would wrap things all up.  But that is too much to ask for with this being such a cash cow for her.

Nope, there will be seven... She once said in an interview... Seven books, for seven years at Hogwarts. No more, no less.

And that was before it became the cash cow it is now. So it's not because she wants to make more money... although I'm sure it's a nice bonus for JKR.

I tell you what, Fel's works now exceed the combined creations of this K. Rowling lass and he is a better author anyway, point, no question about that in my opinion.

I just finished HP6 as well, and I agree it was better than book 5.  There were several things that had been nagging at me that she cleared up, and that ending makes me hope it's not another three years until book 7.  It's also nice to hear there's progress on the next chapter.

I think we've all read too much fanfiction about HP, and thus our expectations were really high, or we went into it with preconceptions.

Then again, I was disappointed too.  Interesting characters killed off in a single sentence, half the book used to explain Tom's background, when DD could have just summarized it (in one sentence).  The Horcruxes thing was interesting, but not fleshed out well enough.

I almost thought she'd decided to make the series longer by doing a book per Horcrux or two.

Eh.  First fanfic I write is going to have Ginny beat the living daylights out of Harry and get back with him.  *grin*
