A Question For You · 12:04am Jan 31st, 2016
Alright, I'm letting the cat out of the bag. I've begun writing the rough draft of the sequel to Finding Her Voice Again.
This is the closest you'll get to a guarantee that it'll see the light of day.
Would you rather see the chapters posted as soon as I finish proofing them? Or would you rather see them released closer together? The first option would see it started sooner, with probable longer gaps between chapters.
But remember, nothing fuels me like feedback. Enthusiasm for the first chapter would push me to write the second and third.
So what you all prefer?
If you like feedback. It's best to post with time intervals in each chapter.
I would prefer for the humane girls to see how much the loss of her voice hurt her. Nothing like that to drive a point home.
Even though I would like to read the first chapter as soon as you are done with the proofs, I don't mind waiting for the rest of the chapters to finish all in once so we dont have to wait very long in between chapters.
the danger of posting chapter by chapter is you may get complacent or distracted or some such because your mind registers that feeling of finishing. However, doing it in a whole bunch can be a problem because it will feel like forever before you can get any feedback on what you're doing. choose how you think you would do better.
Either way, I look forward to reading it. :P
I've been waiting almost 2 years for the next chapter of Mort Takes a Holiday. Waiting for a bit in between chapters is no big deal to me.
Personally, I think it's best to post chapters once they're up to standard. In saying that, I think you should post each chapter after proof-reading them. In my mind, the chapters are like tv episodes in a story. You don't see the tv companies releasing all the episodes in a season one after the other in a mega marathon on the first air-release; marathons are always a few reruns after the initial air date. Online stories should be just like that.

I think you should map out the story as a whole Then start one chapter at a time but only if it is at your standards should you post one at a time for feedback. If people don't like it, adjust according unless it compromises the story as a whole. Hope that helps.
