How's the Story?

Post by Ruxen »

I get the feeling that the story is moving too slow, which might be a side affect of 4 updates a month. To give you an idea of chapter length, most chapters will be at least 40 pages, chapter 1 may even be a little longer.
So, is it dragging, just fine, or going too fast?

Hiya. The storyline is moving just a tad too slowly. It's a really good storyline, but it's gonna get hard to follow after a couple of months.

It's not that it's moving too slow, more so that it's not updated very frequently--or doesn't feel like it is. Kinda like Megatokyo. The story itself should then, perhaps, be sped up to make up for the fairly slow update speed.[/url]

I think the pacing is simply a byproduct of the update schedule--it feels like things move slow because you only get to update a few times a month. Taken in one sitting, it flows pretty well, actually.

Mmmm, yes, they're right. the pacingprobably isnt that bad, it's just that 4 updates a month make it seem slow.

Don't worry once May rolls around it'll update twice a week. This summer I'm going to try to get a buffer going too, so hopefully the twice a week updates will will stick around all year instead of for just three months.
You wonderful folks will visit the forum and tell me how the pacing is over the summer right? Riiight? :(

Yup. ^_^ I know I will. It's always fun. It also gives me a chance to look at what else is being written around here. ^_^

Of course! What else will I have to do during the ridiculously hot Oklahoma days than sit in front of my computer in the air-conditioned apartment and cruise forums and make posts on anything and everything?
