Well folks, the new chapters are up. This makes a significant push and represents somewhere close to 1/10th of the book. Seems like a good time to do some talking about the book.
The reason I posted chapters 3 and 4 together is that, after careful consideration, I actually shifted their order. It might not seem like a huge shift but in terms of flow it does. So when you read 3 and 4, give a bit of consideration to how you would respond if 4 came before three.
Of course this is one of the joys of literature after the fact. You can do that and no one can stop you. But deciding to do it myself took more than two years of writing to finally do. Chapter 4 had always been chapter 3. And then I thought...what if?
Going forward in this story, it is important to remember that the title of the novel itself is not just clever word play. This is a story of what if. And I hope you've been enjoying the what if. So what's coming in the future?
Well for one, of course, more chapters. I'm going to keep publishing more of the book online in slow segments because I'm also in the process of editing and I can't go further than I myself have decided is set to go. And until it's published published, there's still more opportunities to edit.
As for publishing the book, people keep asking me about it and believe me, it is my goal to get the book published. There are a few ways to go about it, and I'm in the idea stage for a way to do so, but worst comes to worst, I'm going to push to get the whole book online and once it's up, I'll start looking into working kickstarter or something like that. But for now I just want everyone to enjoy reading it and hopefully experience a little bit of suspense.
So enjoy chapters 3 and 4. We'll talk soon about the book. Or something completely different.
