My very long Dramione fanfic, Personal Projects, is starting to near the end!  There are 86 chapters currently posted (I know, I know, it's SO LONG), and there will be about 95 total (give or take, sometimes I end up adding chapters as I go).
          	
          	I've been working on this story for over a year now after starting it on a whim, and even initially starting to post it without editing it first, and with no ending planned (though of course that has since changed).  While I'm a little sad that the end of this fic is distantly in sight, I'm also pretty proud that my first jaunt back into writing solo (instead of writing with co-authors as I had been doing the last few years) ended up being such a positive experience.
          	
          	Thank you to everyone who has read it, voted on it, or left comments (here or on AO3).  It's been such a fun journey and I'm so honoured that people even paid attention to this huge WIP before it was done.
          	
          	It's not quite over yet!  I just felt like posting a thank you after the last few chapters, as they were a bit dark and it felt like a good time to focus on happy things now.

Just wanted to say that I am absolutely LOVING Personal Projects. I'm not caught up to the current chapter quite yet, but I was just wondering once all the chapters are posted if you would allow people to bind them for personal use? I love having personal copies of my favorites!

@greenerygirl  I have 86 chapters written and expect the story to be about 94 total when finished, at my current count, but I do occasionally add more as I go. I try to post a new chapter per week, so it'll be a few more months before it's all posted. If I finish writing the ending earlier than my posting schedule, I may post the rest all at once, we'll see!
            
            Thank you so much for the kind words! Top threeee, I'm so flattered! ❤️

Of course! I have someone that does the formatting for me but I would be more than happy to share it with you once I have it. Thank you for allowing it! Honestly this might be one of my top 3 fics, it seems to combine EVERYTHING I love about my other top fics into one and I am OBSESSED. when do you estimate to have all the chapters uploaded by? Do you have a schedule for dropping new chapters? I'm finally caught up

@books-and-chai  What!  For real?  No one has ever asked that before, and it boggles my mind that someone would want to spend the time/money to have a copy printed.  I am so flattered!!
            
            It'll be a bit yet before it's done, but I'd have no problem with that, especially if any formatting you did for binding was shared so that I could pass it on, on the off chance someone else wanted to do the same...  Or perhaps print a hard copy of my own as well!  <3

Happy New Year, folks!
          
          I just posted a bunch of new chapters of Personal Projects, but haven't quite caught up to New Years in the story just yet.  Still, the fic is ALMOST in time with the calendar!  Getting close, anyway.  :) 
          
          Hope you all had wonderful holidays if you celebrate!
          
          Happy reading!!

Hey everyone!  Happy almost new year!
          
          So wow, Personal Projects is #4 in the #wizardingworld category.  So cool!  Thanks for reading/following/voting/etc!
          
          I'm still working on editing my NaNoWriMo sci-fi novel, but will start posting Dirtless as soon as it's ready.  I'm excited, but a little nervous, to share it.  I haven't posted my original fiction online before.
          
          I'll be brave and start posting once it's a little more polished, haha.
          
          Thanks again for reading Personal Projects.  It's cool to see people are enjoying that fanfic, because I have another one in the works I'm going to start posting soon as well!  Keep an eye out for that.
          
          Lots to come in the new year!

@bluehistory_  Thank you so much!! Just doing a little editing, but the first chapter should go up soon.  :)

Hello again!
          
          I am proud to announce that I completed NaNoWriMo 2022.  I'm a winner!  I wrote just over 50,000 words in the month of November.  Wow!
          
          Now the editing begins (and the writing continues, because I did not finish my book).  Keep an eye out for chapters of Dirtless, my original sci-fi novel, to start going up in the coming weeks.
          
          In the meantime, there are plenty more chapters of Personal Projects, my Dramione fanfiction, to come soon, and a new Dramione fanfic on the horizon as well.  No rest for the wicked!
          
          Happy almost holidays, everyone!

I did see the link when I read chapter 25 last evening. 
            Thank you for writing. Your story is so fluid to read.  I can tell you love writing and are very good at it!  I am really enjoying the story.  I’m actually most excited about what their animagus forms will be but I’m not embarrassed to say the smut is perfect too! Lol
