Final stats and commentary. 96 parts, plus 4 "Author Asides" on each "Book" makes for 100, which is a nice stopping point. Except... the story is not, in fact, over. If you want to read more, I offer the following:

1. "Touch And Go" is a short story I wrote for Drew Hayes' site as a guest post. It takes place between Parts 96b and 96c, featuring Carrie, Chartreuse, Azure and Faye. You can find it here (and check out the rest of Drew's site): http://www.drewhayesnovels.com/guestposts/gw2

2. I wrote an April Fools update for "Fantasia", which you can find here on RRL (my post is filed at the end). At the same time, Rev Fitz wrote an April Fools update for me, which is posted on my personal site. It takes place after Part 88a, featuring Evil Elder Carrie and Glen: https://mathtans.wordpress.com/2017/04/01/tt4-88b-a-future-darkly/

3. I also write a story called "Epsilon Project" featuring characters from my stories and roleplay activities, where readers can vote on the plot. Chartreuse was a prominent character in the second storyline entitled "Wish Fulfilment", about a magic world ravaged by wishes coming true. It takes place after part 96c. You can find it here: https://mathtans.wordpress.com/2014/12/06/wish-fulfilment-index/

4. There is also a sequel. Titled "Time Untied", it looks into the exploits of Carrie in her first year at University. It's only partly written so far (40,000 words, which is maybe a quarter of the way through), and is unlikely to be posted here. Given how there has been zero feedback through all 26 parts of Book 4 (aside from emliche encouraging me to continue, which was appreciated), and zero voting on any of the four character polls through all November, it's obvious that, despite good reviews, this story's not engaging for the RRL audience.

We had a better run here than we did on Wattpad, where we never got past the first book. Much thanks to my 31 followers, the 3 reviews I got, the 7 additional rankings I was given, and the 9 favourites I received. That's actually an increase of one favourite since last month, so I guess I'll call that a win, in the end. We take the victories where we can.

As promised, statistics, for the curious, or those who want to compare:

-Average rating 4.8, final rank #879. No doubt that will be lower by the time you read this, because it constantly slides lower as no new rankings are given to T&T. The highest we ever got was #510, back around June 20th, 2017.

-The first part, 1a, has 1,980 views. Part 1b has 969 views (less than half). Part 2a has 851. By Part 4a we're down to 551. (All of those have been out for over 9 months.) Part 96, posted last week, has 18 views (for both 'a' and 'b'). The dropoff doesn't feel atypical, but what do I know.

-The poll in Part 23b (fave female) from 8 months ago now has 6 votes. Four for Carrie, and one each for Luci and Chartreuse. The poll in Part 24a (fave male) has 4 votes, all for Frank. By Part 47, the poll (fave overall) managed 5 votes, with three for Luci, and one each for Carrie and Lee. The poll in Part 65b (fave pairing) still had 5 votes, four for Carrie/Chartreuse and one for Carrie/Glen. So we conclude five people were engaged enough to read that far; by Part 69b (fave minor char) we only had one vote, for Azure, and there's been nothing for the latest polls. (The poll in Part 3a ("do you want a previously segment") ended up 2 votes yes, 2 votes no, and one don't care.)

For what it's worth, here's MY favourite character rankings, from least to greatest: (12) Tim. (11) Glen. (10) Corry. (9) Clarke. (8) Mindy. (7) Lee. (6) Luci. (5) Julie. (4) Laurie. (3) Frank. (2) Carrie. (1) Chartreuse. It's crazy how many new scenes in rewrites used Chartreuse; she does return with Carrie in "Time Untied", though as a minor character. At some point in the future, you may be able to find that on my personal site. I'm "mathtans" almost everywhere on the web.

Thanks again for reading. I've enjoyed our "time" together.
