Can't wait to read Northwest passage. LOOKS AMAZING! Please post more.

@Emily Sometimes, a story just grabs hold of you and *does not let go*. You should've seen my physical therapist's reaction when I told him I wrote 98,000 words in under three weeks. I thought he was going to strangle me. Northwest Passage was prompted by one of my readers who simply requested "John in Canada." THE LONGEST NIGHT and the non-fanfic sequel, THE DEEPEST NIGHT, are both at amazon, B&N, and other retailers. I'm going to bring over another story soon. The process is just a little cumbersome, so I need a good block of uninterrupted time. I'd say my biggest desperate feedback issues would be: 1. Multiple authors for an entire work (not just chapter by chapter) 2. An easy way to add more chapters immediately (right now, I have to go to my name's drop down menu > works > choose the work etc.; just give me a "NEW CHAPTER" button somewhere in the work) 3. The ability to choose multiple categories (romance, contemporary, fanfic) or maybe sub-categories (romance > contemporary, historical, paranormal ; fanfic > particular fandom > etc.) 4. Spaces in tags 5. Linked pseudonyms! I have THE LONGEST NIGHT (the book that came from this fanfic) posted under my other Wattpad ID, Kara Braden, which means I have to manage two logins. But see, I'm a pain in the butt. Always demanding new stuff. And coffee. ;)

@Kryptaria That's fascinating how quickly it took, I would imagine it takes atleast a couple of month to develop a story of this scale. I love how it's also set in Canada. If you have any other works outside of fanfic, I'd love to see them as well, if you are testing out any new stories :) Thanks for the feedback, there have been a lot of requests for collaborative writing tools (especially for fic writers) which we're working on releasing very soon. We take writer features quite seriously so any feedback you have I'll be sure to work on implementing them with our tech team :)

@Emily Thank you! Northwest Passage is complete! I actually wrote it in 18 days, from the very first word in my zero draft to the very last chapter posted over on Archive of Our Own. All of my works are over there, in fact, under username Kryptaria. I'll slowly be moving some of them here, but Wattpad's posting system is very unfriendly compared to AO3, and Wattpad unfortunately doesn't allow multiple authors. I've been doing some fantastic writing with Ray Van Fox, but I can't put any of that here without giving him the proper credit he deserves, and that's not fair. :)
