actually, now that we've got a fresh start... i had to give up after part 3 because there was too much to read and you were posting too fast. so, can i take this opportunity to ask again for a more traditional posting schedule? just a thought. i won't be offended if i'm outvoted.

You're outvoted, Paul. Nan, go with what you want. I'd love to see it coming the way it was, but it that's too much stress on you, go ahead and slow down...just not too much or we'll have to lynch you. Bethy (who no longer posted the very first topic in Orig Fic )

I agree with Paul. It was so quick that I couldn't keep up.

I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days attack me at once.

I'm glad some others had trouble with the posting rate too.
It was just so fast and I have only so many hours a day to read.
I have all the parts saved, but I finally gave up trying to read until it was all posted.
I am voting for a slow down if it is alright with you Nan.

I'll do my best.
I'll start posting again later tonight. right now I have to get ready for an appointment.
I can post once a day, or once in the evening and once in the morning. Why don't you tell me what you need. This story is quite long. We hadn't even reached the halfway point yet.
Mr. D8A, you might want to start over when I start posting again. I've gone back and done some minor revision while I was waiting for the boards to clear up
Nan.

I'd be glad of a slower posting rate too. Last time around I'd pretty much had to consign this folder to oblivion, other than for the short vignettes, because I got behind so quickly with a lot of epics being posted en masse. Looking forward to seizing the second chance the mbs glitch has given me. LabRat

definately not too fast, Nan! What can I say? I haven't been reading much of anything besides Slave Race lately. <g> It's got a great premise, it's fast moving, and I can honestly say that it's better written than what a lot of the established science fiction authors are churning out these days. I want more! Laura (who would prefer the rest of the book right now!)

I'll go for slowly too. I don't have much reading time at the moment, so I do what I can. Once a day sounds good to me.

Nan. Once a day or even every other day would be great! I'll start over again. Any correction on perfection has got to be appreciated. James

once a day is good with me. some days are slower than others, posting-wise, but then, some days are more busy than others IRL. so, daily should be good on average. you'll be posting for a long time, but i think you'll have a good deal more readers. thanks for being flexible, nan. looking forward to reading more.
