Technically speaking, there is ONE more full page in this chapter of DotX, which will be going up next Friday as scheduled.
As always, the next page to go up after that page will be an "End of Chapter" page like I usually do to space chapters out. What's different this time is that there will be about 10 "End of Chapter" pages for the Ball, as a sort of a denouement to show the aftermath of the events that just occurred.
After THAT, once page 499 is up, I'm going to be taking an extended break from DotX as I focus on other projects that I think you'll all really enjoy! ...But I can talk about those more next time.
For now, let me say, thank you so much for going on this journey with me! I never knew how long the Ball was going to be when I started writing it, and while spending 2.5 years on it was perhaps a mistake in some ways, I can't help but love looking back on this chapter and seeing how far it's come. We're here! We made it! We're one page away from the end of this chapter, and with it, Book 1 of DotX. The future looks so exciting right now, I hope you'll stick around with me!!!
mah feels.
