No, only got to the end of level two. Defeated Ahopae, but we still don't know exactly what's ailing Lord Fear, or how Paul is supposed to defeat him!
One idea I'll reiterate right here, Emii... don't forget to make Paul tell Treguard, nice and loud, to "Kiss my a**!"
That can be a useful short term target to aim at in fact. Decide on a moment in the story when you can make him say it, and then focus just on reaching that point. It'll be easier than aiming for the finish line, and it'll get you moving. By the time you reach that point, you should have the impetus to get you all the way to the end.

Help! Throw things at me! Shout inspirational words! Feedback!

Come on! You can do it! Don't let good talent go to waste! You have an ability to produce fine fanfiction that is readable and enjoyable, by mixing original and established Knightmare elements. So, please, keep going. :)
One thought: If the fanfic was inspired by the last RPG, maybe the next RPG (which, like your stories, will have new elements and established elements working together) will give you the input, inspiration and impetus you need to round off 'Are You There?', unless you are desperate to finish it before then.

Yeah, and on the issue of inspirational music, stare at the lyrics I put on the back-up forum!
You can do it! Your fanfics as good as any I've seen for KM, so if anyone can complete this last stretch, it's you. Go for it!

Sound familiar? ;) (Actually, it sounds a bit New Labour-ish, but you know what I mean.) YOU CAN DO IT!

True, since it is a little RPG-based, so I may well wait for the April RPG first...I'll see. Must get exams out of the way first, really. only 2, but meh >:(

I was once told that A-levels are the hardest things you'll ever have to do; and in my experience, first year university exams (for an Arts course, anyway) are no harder or harsher than A-level papers. They don't want people to fail or be overwhelmed at this early stage - that's why the pass mark is usually 40%! Good luck. (That goes for all Freshers with exams or assessments at the moment!)

I always find what works best is appointing someone as your Official Encourager. Said position entails possesing oneself with a large pointed stick and repeatedly jabbing the fic-writer with it when they show signs of slacking off.
Of course, if the Official encourager gets bored or distracted, it's inevitable that the writer will too. (especially if they're me)
