Default Re: "far away" and/or "faraway"

No problem

The princess was living in a faraway land.

The princess was living in a far away land.
You will see this is many sentences, but I dare say it's more of an idiom (possibly originating from misspelling faraway). The reason I say this is that you can't replace far away here with any other place adverbial.
E.g.
*The princess was living in a somewhere land



I am far away from ending my book.

*I am faraway from ending my book.



Hope this helps. We could wait for some more opinions
