Awwwooo to one and all
Usualy I add my updates in my ToC but this time I am creating a whole new discussin for it as it actualy will affect all writers here so please bear with me here.
Due to limitations placed upon me at work, I find muself rather limited in what I can do with regards to writing new chapters and editing older ones. Currently at this point in time I have posted 228 chapters and I have 140 chapters to edit which have yet to be posted. These limitations at work make such tasks nigh on impossible so I find myself in a rather unusual position.
The only real way I can progress my story with writing new content and editing old is if I have all my content here on the site. This means I will be posting the unedited chapters as blogs and adding their links to my ToC. Now I'm not going to hijack the blogs and post everything at once so what I will be doing is adding one chapter a day with an Author's Note stating the chapter hasn't been edited so the work is rough.
If anyone should want to read these chapters then by all means do so. Bear in mind though that there are a massive amount of grammar issues with them, they have not been checked for Blog Members to read nor are they word perfect. The plots and story arcs/ characters/ and events may and sometimes will change when I eventualy get around to editing them. Please don't take these chapters as finished nor set. Often I change around characters and switch their roles during editing. Think of these chapters as Works In Progress.Yes, I know we have a workshop for this but due to the scale and sheer size and time line I am working on, to use the workshop would be a nightmare. As Blogs they would get buried over time except fo rlinks to them which would be in my ToC.
What this means for you all is that your stories may be burried somewhat quicker than you or I would like. This isn't an ideal situation I know but I am unable to use USB Sticks, One Drive is limited due to the computer. I've tried emailing chapter sections to myself and this rapidly becomes a tangled mess. The blogs are the one place I can access and work on chapters without pulling red flags or causing issues other than the one I stated with you all.
I have looked into hiding the blogs but this causes certain issues as well. Readers cannot follow my progress and when I post whole new chapters the readers won't be able to make sense of them. The rough chapters will probably take me the best part of the next two three years to edit. Using the main blogs I can keep the story alive.
Also during this time I am slowly adding chapter titles to all my chapters, (so far 360 of them) and I am changing the end of chapter link bars slightly.
As before I will happily recieve any feedback although it will be in the readers interest to keep feedback to events and plots rather than grammar as there are simply too many bugs in these pieces. As time goes on I will be editing each chapter while also writing new chapters so at least my story can make some progress.
Don't feel you all have to accept this situation. You are more than welcome to express your concerns over this by commenting below. There may be the odd day when the blogs seem quiet that I take advantage of it and post two chapters but I am aware each time I do this your chapters become buried quicker. I wil not take this lightly I assure you all.
Feel free to comment and air your views.
