I was actually scheduled to be off this weekend, so I was hoping to finish Cold Streets and maybe put out a chapter of another story. However, I got called in to work both Saturday and Sunday. I'm still going to try to get Cold Streets done, but it's looking like a pipe dream at this point.

Unfortunately, there will be no chapter of The Cold Streets of Baltimare this week. I've run into a hiccup and need to do some tweaking. As a result, the next chapter may not be up for a week. Maybe two... or more.

I wrote 1375 words in The Cold Streets of Baltimare today. That may not sound significant, but it' a large improvement of my normal daily output. The downside is that I won't have any extended downtime until Friday. There is good news, though. I did write enough to justify posting another chapter sometime this week. Likely Wednesday.

So, I've looked over my chapters again, and if I decide to break the chapters into shorter chunks, then I'll have a total of three complete (and unpublished chapters) and one to two more chapters to complete the story.

That exceptionally long and convoluted sentence explains this very short and simple question: Would it be better to publish shorter chapters biweekly, or longer chapters weekly?

I just submitted the first chapter of a new story starring Rarity. Hopefully it will pass moderation and be on the site in a matter of minutes... or hours...

Anyway, I already have the next two chapters done and am working on the last chapter (it might end up being a couple of chapters). I'm planning on releasing weekly, unless I finish the last chapter early. That's not to say that I'm immune to being swayed by popular demand, either.
