I happen to enter this thread every day to pray for creative enlightment.

No, seriously, I always like to return here, where everything began for me (inspiring my first own DiD) read some pages, enjoy the memories and this unique style of writing.

It just crept into the top 10 as the story ended. And has since gained a place or two and is holding on there.

It still gets recommended to newbies (and not just by me :P ) as a very interesting and informative read.

But, I have to agree:

Also, NS' stories are the only ones referenced in the resources sticky at the top of the X-Universe forum. Now, from my own experience I can say that as a newbie, that's one of the most important stickies!

Thanks, I'd seen that stats reference made before by a few people but hadn't ever seen the page itself.

It's the 5th link on the Control Panel on the right hand side of the screen, as well.

N-S there's some Creative Universe stuff going into the superbox - I would have thought your DiD stories would be great in there.

Have you thought about nominating them?

Download the "X3-handbook-v5". Two versions, one with and one without bookmarks. "Wanton use..." is included as part of that.

The handbook only contains the first post, unless I am missing something, or screwed it up somehow.

I just finished reading the first two stories, squddy and then zen in the art of running away. I have to admit I'm hooked. You have a fan. Very much looking forward to another tale.

With the conclusion of this thread I have now read all three stories. Like many others I find myself wanting more. Very inspiring. Well done.

I only just found this story and spent all day reading. An excellent read indeed, such a trilling story!

I hope you will find some time to write another story one day. :)

Thank you.

And is actually still holding its own in the most viewed list, currently at 5th, with over 600K hits! :o

More viewed than the main resources sticky! Just...

Still no sign of a compiled version of this.

If nobody else is doing one I'll give it a crack.
