I'm glad you liked it though. It really is an investment to have to trudge through a long story, but I try make it worth it. Nothing worse than wasting a reader's time...

As for the choice in name, I've always loved Greek mythology and thought a horror story involving some of the characters would be fun. In this case, I included the goddess of Earth, Gaia, and the goddess of snow, Chione. My original mindset was to make a trilogy (note, the stories wouldn't have the same characters) that slowly expands and eventually reveals Gaia's true intentions, but I'm still on the fence about it. Ha, nah. But in case you did recheck your spelling, nothing but good could come out of it.

I think I waste my reader's time about 90% of the time, so, ehhh... it all comes to taste?

Ummm, yeah, everyone seems to love Greek mythology, it's probably because we're such a hellenistic culture. You could make this, as it is, into a book. I really don't usually get the so called chaptering of a single piece. Can't blame you for that though, I've done that too once - instead of titles, I just plastered qoutes from a philosophy book I have between the parts. Maybe one day I'll get to editing this whole piece to fit on this site. (It's not in English currently).

You can still make a series out of this take on reality, I've done that too. It all started with the stand alone story "The Necropolis" which I've recently expanded into a series called "Beyond The Necropolis" (do me a favor and check it out... there's a thread with the first chapter here, will ya? ;) ) Kick off from after this incident and further into Felton's life, or from the perspective of a new cast with him tying in somewhere.
