I’m still fucked up at the fact that the longest piece of English fictional literature written by any human is a super smash bros brawl fan fic.
218 chapters
3.5 million words
AND ITS STILL IN PROGRESSSHIITTTT
It’s now at over four million words and counting. Oh, and get this: the author isn’t a native English speaker. He’s a Mexican kid who moved to the US and started writing this fic in order to get better at English while in high school. Some chapters rank at 40,000 words each – they are novellas in their own right – and the guy is aiming for 400 chapters.
Seriously, this is amazing.
