Weird Info About BGC FTA
Bubblegum Crisis - A Farewell to Arms
Weird stuff about FTA
Originally, after I finished my Next Gen fanfic, I wasn't planning on starting another fanfic.  I was just gonna let people imagine for themselves what happens after part 4 of Next Gen ends.  But then, I discovered the evil thing called Writing Withdrawal, and it was painful.  (Hey, I worked on Next Gen for three years, after all!)  Oh, and not to mention that I had a whole slew of ideas spinning around in my head. ^_^;  So, after a brief "vacation" from writing, I started FTA, and hopefully it'll be just as great as Next Gen is! ^_^

Just like I did with Next Gen, here's some interesting facts about FTA:

Part 1 - begun: January 14, 2002

            how old I was when I finished part 1: 18

Part 2 - begun: May 31, 2002
            finished: May 14, 2003
            total length: 64 pages
            how old I was when I finished part 2: 19

Part 3 - begun: May 31, 2003
            finished: December 3, 2004
            total length: 51 pages
            how old I was when I finished part 3: 21

Part 4 - begun: January 5, 2005
            finished: December 14, 2006
            total length: 96 pages
            how old I was when I finished part 4: 23

Pages done on an average day: 1 page

Most pages done in a day:  8 pages! (pages 8-16 of part 3)
Longest period between updates on FTA: 3 months (during part 2)
Where I got Irodia and Mikhaila's names from: Well, I figure Nene's family is Russian, so I went to a Russian name site and chose out Irodia's name from the ones provided.  I knew I wanted her daughter to have a version of Mikaela, so I just looked up the Russian spelling for it. ^_^
Where I got Xania's name from: Well...it just sounded good!  Is that a problem? ^^;
Why I had Xania have a tail: Maybe it was because I've watched a lot of Dragonball, or maybe it was just to make her stand out from all of the people that Yumeko meets.  Or, maybe it just seemed cool!  So...there you go! ^_^;
Why the fic's called "A Farewell to Arms": In a sense, this fic IS Yumeko's "farewell to arms".  I know there's already a story by Hemingway by the same name, but it seemed to be appropriate for this story. ^_^
