It has become clear to me that I can't leave you like this.
I also know that I cannot write the rest of KOTN...
...but with a bit of help, maybe I won't have to.
For me, I think the remaining 40 chapters of KNIGHTS will be a year's work. But for 10 people it would be a couple of months, and for 20 people maybe half of that.
This idea is maybe a bit hopeful, but it's the best way I can think of getting things done in a way that is satisfying for all of us:
We all write KNIGHTS OF THE NIGHTINGALE.
While I think it was pretty naive of me to assume that one person would be foolish enough to take on the entire burden, I know I have fellow writers here who might be prepared to write a chapter or two.
If anyone is interested, let me know in the comments on this story on archiveofourown ( - unfortunately, this site is terrible when it comes to embedding links, which is why I tend to defer over there); if there's enough interest, I'll set up a Discord server and we can get down to business - maybe.
P.S. If this does become popular enough to work as a reasonable solution, anyone who helps out will not be paid, but they will be credited.
