FYI

Just an FYI, this week I'm trying a new thing where I post shorter chapters. It makes the editing a LOT easier. I'm also hoping this means I'll get new stuff up more often than once a week. I wanna keep writing, because the characters are still arguing with each other in my brain, but right now I really have to make sure I'm impressive on my new job, because I utilize my salary to buy cute shoes.

Since, in reality, there's ONLY THREE OF YOU STILL READING (plus Sushi when the poor thing is not on her deathbed), if this sucks, let me know.

Whatever works for you is great! I am a naughty bad reader and am not commenting like I should; my excuse is 5 people and one computer, but it's not much of one. I do most of my reading on my phone, but when I comment it likes to cut them off and I can't see what I'm typing. Rest assured though, I am still reading and loving every bit, and intend to go back and get caught up when I have a chance.

Seriously, I admire anyone who can consistently come up with a story, but bow to your skills that you have the job you do and then can come home and do this - and you write the Interstitial on your lunchhour?! o_O I'm gobsmacked.


And now there's more than three people who've answered this, so I know you've got more than three readers. They're just shy maybe...

What I meant was, there's not tons and tons of people reading, and Z kinda wanted stuff up more often, and I'd also gotten feedback in the past that my super-long chapters were delaying dinners and whatnot.

Regarding the evil that is Chapter 33: that was the worst experience of my life grinding that one out. It's got a couple of cute bits, but I really think at some point I'm gonna just go hit it in the head with a hammer and bury it in the back yard. If you get stuck, read the first couple sections, and skip to the last couple sections, and then skip ahead to 34. Really, you won't miss much.

And, yeah, the interstitials: this is probably not of much interest to anyone besides myself, but the chapters, I tend to take at least a month from start to finish to get them out, so I'm going over them over and over and over and over. So, the Interstitials are this little weird free association thing I do. I realize this is not what a "professional writer" would do, but I'm like, eh. :D
