End of Hertha
I uploaded the final chapter of "High City on a Hill" to FFnet, where it sank with a resounding silence. In the course of a week (as of last Friday) the new chapter 15 had received a grand total of twelve page-views, as had chapter 14; of those twelve, three people apparently went back and reread the whole thing from the start. On AO3, the stats registered 32 hits on the story as a whole (a similar number to those who clicked on chapter 1 after the update on FFnet and evidently clicked straight off again without skipping to the new chapter...)

(Also, hi, I'm not dead, just been on Discord a lot more than Dreamwidth lately.)

But the readers aren't going to *know* that until they reach the final chapter --- Hertha herself doesn't expect it... (And it is, basically, an R/C story; just one with an unhappy ending. But I can't tag it R/C, because by my own rules I use that for stories where the tagged pair actually *end up* together, and not for the "Love Never Dies" stories where Christine is dead, for instance!)
