[QUOTE="Shayuri, post: 359986, member: 4936"] [b]A question for y'all[/b] Sorry for the length of time between posts. My enthusiasm has been waning, as has the readership of this Story Hour by the look of it. Judging by the number of new reads each time this thread hits the front page, we have around 30-40 people who pay attention to this story hour, of which I'd estimate maybe a third are probably people who click on it out of curiosity... Maybe I'm being unrealistic, but I feel like I'm doing something wrong here. :) So! I have an idea and I wanted to run it by the folks who read this to see if it's a good one. My idea is that I do shorter installments, more often...rather than a week or two apart as per now. I'm estimating the length of each installment would be around half of what they tend to be right now...varying so that it finds a good "cut point" in the narrative, of course. If nothing else, this'd keep the hour on the front page more, and it would be easier to write and so I'd tend to procrastinate less. :) Is it the concensus of those on this board that this course of action would help expand this tale's appeal and readership? Or are there any other comments/suggestions anyone would like to make? I haven't tried this kind of serial story posting before, so I fully admit there's aspects to it that I'm unaware of. Any kind of feedback would be welcome. I should have the next update ready tomorrow. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
