Notes: Hi guys. I decided a while back that I wasn't going to post any more of this until I'd finished the whole thing. I've written about five more chapters, but I've run into a problem (albeit an awesome one for me) - I've started working really hard on my own original fiction in the last few months, and I'm making a serious push towards getting it published next year. So I'm honestly not sure if I will end up finishing "A Wing and a Prayer", much as I love it - I'm out of the fandom enough now that it's really hard to get back into the mindset, especially when I want to be writing about my own world. Therefore I'm going to clean up and post everything I've written so far, so at least you've got as much of the story as exists. It might be that going through and cleaning up is enough to spur me into just a little more enthusiasm so that I finish it off, but I'm making no promises and assuming at this point that I probably won't.

If you like my writing and like what I've done with these characters, you might be interested in my original fiction too. Partly because it's a high-tech fantasy series that features a lot of the kind of adventure/investigation/character-interaction plots I usully write, and partly because I seem to have sort of accidentally ended up with a pair of secondary characters who bear a suspicious similarity to my human versions of Skyfire and Silverbolt... :) If you're interested you can follow me on Twitter as @brightwanderer, or on Dreamwidth, also as brightwanderer. I'm also planning some slashy original short stories (in the style of Shousetsu Bang Bang) if that's your cup of tea. ;)

Notes: Wow. That's certainly got to be some kind of record for gaps in updating. The abridged version of why: about this time last year I had glandular fever (mono) and was very ill for about six weeks. I was lucky enough not to get the fatigue afterwards, but it was such a big break in my life that it threw everything off, including the next chapter of this. Since then I've been up and down with writer's block, real life stuff, and the growing feeling that I'd waited too long and there wasn't any point in updating now. Fortunately, I got past that, helped by a lot of you lovely people who are still reviewing and waiting hopefully for more. This is a long chapter and that's after I split it in two! The next one is mostly written and should be up in a week or so. I've managed to get into the habit of writing daily for the last month, so I am hoping to get chapters up much much quicker - if I can hit one every two weeks, I will. I'm also working on 'Fire and Ice'. Thanks again for all your reviews!

By the way, if you would like to read "A Wing and a Prayer" on an e-reader, you can download all of it so far from the Archive of Our Own in whatever format you prefer. I've tested the Kindle version and it looks pretty good!
