I could be on crack (possible but not likely) but let me see how this
works....
 3 parts (each) of a 3 part story....
               (nine in total)
                   or
 3 parts of a 3 part story which I have recieved in many differing
sizes....

Okay, David's story goes like this.  I think The Chosen I and The Chosen II are 
two sections of one long story.  There are three parts to each, and they count 
as separate stories, but you really need to read the first to make sense of the 
latter.  However, The Chosen III was written really as a sequel, (with the 
obligatory three parts ^_^) and that, I think, counts as a standalone story.  
Does that clear it up?

Also, I'm not sure if he mentioned this, but I don't think (last time I heard 
from him) that he's on the FFML.  So if he hasn't changed his mind, then all 
comments will have to be sent via private E-mail.

Okay, hoping that helped...
