To whoever it was that mentioned www.keepitcoming.net, thank you. I now have a story available on that site titled "The Brother of Jared" and the first issue is always free.
Wish me luck and please take a look and let me know what you think. It's a bit different for me -- writing in a serialized format -- but it should help me "hone the craft", as it were.
And what great practice you're getting for meeting deadlines.
Awesome!

I read it and am hooked. I might just have to subscribe
Congratulations! ------------- BTW, I had a little difficulty getting to the free issue. The link is spelled wrong. When you click for the free issue, it takes you to: http://www.keepitcoming.net/free/broher-jared.html
Broher is missing his "t". You may want to let them know about that.

Congrats, and may the creative juices flow for the rest of the story. Nice going.

Robyn_hood: THANK YOU!! I contacted them and they got it fixed. I wonder how many other people I sent there just gave up in frustration!
And as for the other comment -- YES, a big lesson in learning to adhere to deadlines. I have to do 9 per month, and I just barely finished the first 9 issues in one month, so I barely make the pace! Hopefully as it goes the process will become more automatice (quicker).
BTW...I think writing in this format is MUCh harder than just doing a novel, because whatever direction I take with a given issue, I have to stick with it. I can't go back after doing chapter 10 and realize that chapter 3 no longer fits. I have to make future issues fit...tough! But fun....

Hey, RJ, that was me, your fellow (sister?) KeepItComing author. Welcome, and congrats!
ETA: My story is Sweet Dreams, under the Horror section.

Hildy -- which story is yours? I'd love to take a look at it. And thanks again. I'm sure I have a lot of room for improvement, but hopefully this will give me the kick in the tail I needed to really work on the art, as it were....
