Asking for advice

...from those of you who read, and especially those of you who've written, chapter fics.

High Contrast really does seem to be turning into an actual chaptered, long-form fic. I'm working on putting together an archive page, so I can point people to it when I get a new piece, etc.

My question is this: how should I arrange the listing? The first bits of the story I got over a decade ago, and now this stuff is coming in. But it's not now, nor has it ever, emerged in chronological order. The pieces come in willy-nilly, all over the place. So which would be more useful, do you think - listing in order of writing, or in the chronological order of the story?

Which would you do as a writer, and which would you prefer as a reader? I'm on the fence, honestly. Opinions?

I am skating along at the mercy of these beautiful boys. I have no idea if the thing will get finished, or even from one moment to the next whether they'll ever talk to me again.

Thanks for the input. Yeah, chronological seems best. I may present the original three drabbles separately first, then the whole thing with them in context. I'm kinda jazzed at how those three pieces present something that ends up being so different than what it seems like at first.

-sigh- Jesus, this whole thing has been so unexpected. I feel like I'm riding a rip current here, no idea where it's taking me.

Just hold on tight and enjoy the ride.
