    Unreleased work that I don't think I'll finish for a while.

    You'd be surprised how many a good story is an amalgam of many failed stories over the years - they're ideas percolating in the author's head.

    A story that starts out as a children's story and then rewritten for YA then again rewritten for average adults using the Hemingway approach (limited to the 10,000 most common words) and finally written again with college level of vocab, grammar and character development. So that way you can...

    1 chap author

    The short one chapters are basically a summary of an idea, and it seems the original author to wants it to exist and yet not commit to the writing. Because of this, I daresay that the one chapters are fair game for inspirations to do a story.
