Lay Me Low Is Now Complete and Posted

Okay. It is finished. At 39 chapters and 286,886 words, Lay Me Low is now officially completed and posted at TPP. I will never make a penny from this story, and some people will dismiss it because 'it's just fanfiction', but to me it is the most valuable story I have written or ever will write.

I'm happy and sad and about to burst with emotion, because I did it.

I wrote it, and in doing so, I became a writer.

I have it as a full-length PDF, Mobi or Epub file, if anyone wants it for their e-readers. Just message me with your email address and I'll send it. All I ask is that if you read it, you'll give me some feedback on it.

Put me down for an EPUB file. I've wanted to say this for so long! Congratulations, dearest. The road was longer than you knew it would be, wasn't it? But look where you are now. I'm so happy for you. Xxoo

Congratulations, Sweetie! I'll start on it after I finish reading Seven Preposterous Things. (I referred to your "desert island picks" to get back into reading fanfic again.)

Hey Teddy!
Congratulations on finishing this mighty epic. You know I'm dying to finish reading it!
However, I'm looking at it on Ash and I think it might be missing the last chapter even though it's marked complete? There's a chapter 38 on PP that I can't see on Ash.

Man I'm gobby in these comments tonight! I know you posted in lovedraughts, but you could also post in snapeyloveshermy. I'm sure a lot of people there would be interested.

AWESOME!!! I have found that for the most part, I just don't to well with WIPs because my memory can't handle it. I feel bad that I haven't supported you on your posting/writing journey. :(

However, Lay Me Low has just gone to the top of my reading list, and I can't wait to read and review it!

*kisses*

This is going to be a hellish busy week in the real life realm, so I don't know when I will get around to reading. I'd rather wait until I can hide away with no distractions. So, in the meantime, I wanted to stop by and say congratulations on finishing. I know how much this story means to you, and I can only imagine the personal satisfaction and also sadness that comes with finishing this one. But, it is a springboard to bigger and better things, right? Now, back to writing! :)

Congratulations! I am so proud of all the hard work and effort that you put into that amazing story, along with all the love and tears that show clearly through your writing. I would love to get a copy to put on my kindle so I can read at work. I don't think they would appreciate it if I was reading on the computer. ;)

Fantastic. Congratulations! I would be delighted to get an EPUB file of Lay Me Low. At over 286 thousand words it is a full fledged novel and a darned good one.
