You know, I think lots of people take a year+ to finish bangs; sometimes when you go long, the story goes REEEEEEEEEEEEALLY long, you know? And then you're just ready to finish when the next year rolls around. It's a good thing. I'm not technically a mod of the bang, so I can't actually say for sure, but my guess is that there's no reason you couldn't post it this year. Is it finished now, or are you still working on it?
