Homecoming, Arc One · 8:33pm Feb 21st, 2019
So I did a thing. I counted all the words for Arc One of Homecoming (Everything up to but not Including Forgotten Legacy) and it stands at just under 139k words. That is not including any of the Guest Author works or upcoming revisions to Chaos Theory, Into the Sunset, or Ballade. I'm sure when I'm done with those it'll hit 140K+. Homecoming gained close to three thousand words or so in it's revision, as did Wooing.
As Far as Arc Two goes, I will just be skimming for revisions. I don't think many changes are needed in there besides some word choice changes. Which brings me to an important question.
Insurgence.
Looking back, the story is bat-sh*t crazy. It rambles back and forth and has some concepts that I could easily change, but pulling it down would require a near-total rewrite and that -- to be completely and brutally honest -- doesn't exactly fill me with joy. I liked the idea, but looking at where I was when I wrote it, and the growth I've had since then..........
So I'll leave it to a vote:
Strike from Continuity
Revise but leave in
Full Rewrite

My opinion, for what it's worth, is whichever you wanna do. But, if you go the rewrite route, please don't take down the older versions. I can't tell you the numbers of writers who've yanked down an older version they were re-writing, even though their readers were practically begging them to put them back/leave them up. Since a re-write often changes a lot of scenes and concepts in a story, a lot of folks are like me and like to have both to compare. Maybe post all on Arc 1 in a single file to free up the story titles.
Anyway, I'll read whatever you post for the series.

Well, Insurgence was arc two, so it’s not in danger yet.

Thank you for a wonderful tale
Keep it in for sure. Maybe revise what you feel needs it.
