Today I got another feedback-reply asking to read REFLECTIONS OF A DISTANT FUTURE. Well... I'm glad you want to read it, so... the good news is: It's already over 20 chapters long AND it's posted here on the internet for you to start reading!
I'm sure that those of you who already closely follow my works know this by now but...
Reflections of the DISTANT FUTURE IS in the works. (23 chapters as of August 1st, 2007. The 23rd chapter will be posted soon, I promise!)
But I didn't LIKE that name, so I went with: REFLECTIONS OF A NEW GENERATION. For those of you who wanted to read it, GO READ IT NOW! It's up! I swear! I promise! It's on my bio-page down at the bottom where it lists the stories I've written thus-far!
I've had so very many people tell me they'd LOVE to read a "distant future" sequel and I'm afraid they're just confused that I called the story something ELSE…
So I'm putting this message up to explain it, just … you know… to clarify.
Also, I'm really blown away with the popularity of this story.
I finished it in about 3 months and… now, years later… It's about to surpass the "20 thousand hit" mark. When I finished it, back in the day, it ended with a little more than "2 thousand" hits.
Having a link to this story from Dwight's "Krystal Fan Page" and having people put links to it on the Forum boards on Nintendo's website really, REALLY made the difference. There are several websites that have posted links to this story and I DEEPLY appreciate that!
I rushed through this story, and I've learned so much about writing over the last few years… so I'm really GLAD people liked this story.
I'm also working on a PREQUEL now, called Reflections Of FOX MCCLOUD. A lot of people asked for it. There are a lot of people that didn't want to put their name or email address up for me to personally thank them… so… Now I'm working on Reflections of Fox McCloud. I've got over 10 chapters posted thus-far.
I'm on Chapter 23 of Reflections of a New Generation (which is what I've decided to name the "DISTANT FUTURE" story, when all was said and done). Both stories coincide with one another. Fox and Krystal return in Reflections of a New Generation on or around chapter 22.
In reflections of Fox McCloud, I start with him as a 16 year old, right before meeting Falco… then I detail a little bit of the time he spends with his roommate, Bill Gray. I talk about his relationship with Fara Phoenix, Miyu Lynx and the "depressed single period" that lasts for YEARS up until he meets Krystal on Sauria.
I'm also doing a REFLECTIONS OF PEPPY, which starts around the time that Fox's mother died. I rarely update it because I focus on Ref-of Fox and Ref-of a New Gen so darn much.
But I'll eventually finish all 3. At any rate, THANK YOU ALL FOR READING! For those of you who don't leave contact information… THANK YOU! I'd thank you in person which I usually do… but I understand that some people don't wish to be contacted. So I'm taking this opportunity to tell you: Thank you, I appreciate that you took the time to read my work and then to leave your feedback. Good or bad, I respect everything that people tell me. I understand that not everyone will like every part of every story I write… You can please some of the people some of the time, but NEVER can you please ALL of the people ALL of the time.
But for those who enjoyed my story in the Reflections Series… for those who enjoyed Reflections of Krystal, Reflections of the Future, Reflections of Peppy, Reflections of a New Generation and Reflections of Fox McCloud… I thank you for taking the time to read it… and I'm GLAD you enjoyed them.
For those who DIDN'T like the stories… if you've made it this far, thank you for your time! If there's anything you'd like to suggest… I'm always open-minded to suggestions! After all, I always intended to make Fox the secondary character in these stories… I intended to tell a story about Fox McCloud through the eyes and actions of his peers… through Krystal, through Peppy, etc… BUT a lot of people SUGGESTED that I do a story about Fox ANYWAYS, so… I did. Why? Cause I listen to my readers!
Thanks again! I consider all of you to be my friend so… drop me a line! PM, Email, whatever you want! I'll always try and reply! If I don't, re-send it and hopefully I'll see it then!
If you were curious about the dates on this story:
Published: 9-28-05 – Last Updated: 12-30-05
See that? I wrote it in about 90 days, give or take… and I finished it way back in 2005. For people to STILL read it… well… that says a lot to me. So, again… THANK YOU :D
Much love,
KIT-KARAMAK
PS: check out the page that fan-readers made for me on WIKIFUR dot COM (just search for KIT hyphen KARAMAK) …I've recently revised some of the things said there, so that everything was accurate but… regardless, I appreciate the sentiment! You guys rule.
Oh yeah… for those of you who came here to read the story from another page and aren't really familiar with FanFiction's website… This site doesn't allow Web Links except in the BIO page… so, if you wanna read the rest of my REFLECTIONS stories, just click on my name up top and go to my BIO page, then go down to the bottom… you'll see the other REFLECTIONS stories. There are FIVE of these stories in the series, so far! (I really wanna do one about Wolf but I don't have the time right yet. Who knows. Falco or Slippy would be another interesting person to follow.)
Take care!
