Today I'm starting to post a fic I've been writing for more than two years, since right when I started getting into the fandom of Buffyverse. It's called "Another One Like It Tomorrow". It's Buffy/Angel-centric, though it also has Angel/various others, all slash. It's about Angel descending into darkness and finding his way back out again. It takes place in early AtS season one.

So far, this fic is 180,000 words. It is 7/10 written; a middle part and the ending aren't written yet. I never wanted to post this as a WIP. I also wanted to cut it a lot and get it beta'ed before sharing it with the public. But I've lost a lot of steam in these two years, and after a lot of thought, I've decided that working on posting it might do a lot to get me stoked to push on through and write the final 3/10. As such, I decided the right thing to do was to post it for the [livejournal.com profile] lynnevitational, which is partly about finishing things and keeping alive that Jossverse spirit.

I'm going to post the fic in pieces, about a chapter a day or every other day. As I post, I will be working to finish the unfinished pieces so that the missing parts should be written by the time the posting gets to that point. There should be no long delays for anyone following along, waiting for me to write.

There are several reasons I'm posting this way,explained under this cut. )

If you are averse to reading a WIP, there will be an announcement at the end that it is complete, with a link to all the chapters, and you can read it then. If, however, you are interested in following along as every new chapter as it is posted, I suggest you friend [livejournal.com profile] tkpfic. That journal will be used exclusively to post this fic until posting is completed, at which time you may want to defriend it. If you're not sure whether you're interested in following along, watch this space. There will be a weekly notice on this journal with links to the week's worth of updates. That way you can read it in chunks if you like, or just be reminded that something's being posted over there you may want to read.

Reasons you may not actually want to read, otherwise known as me whining and being anxious about posting this. )

Lastly, I owe a debt of gratitude to [livejournal.com profile] chrisleeoctaves. She's read most of this, but cannot be blamed for any glaring small errors or major faults. Mostly, she encouraged me, caught a bunch of little errors, and offered quite a few broad comments that hopefully will really change this fic for the better.
