Thank you for reading it, Claudia. I've redrafted the beginning so many times. Prologues often get a bad press, so I'm pleased this one does the job, hopefully without hindering the pace.
Yes, will be doing this. I thought best to apply a 'soft' launch as I'm also working on standardising the chapters look. navigation etc and getting used to the rhythm of twice weekly publishing. Swan above the surface, gerbil below it!
Looks good so far imho. And of course now I understand why you were asking the chatbot about the pros and cons of new section vs. new stack. In this instance I think you made the right decision to have it as a new publication - it means you can add other sections for meta-narrative purposes, and define the paid-subs better, as you have done.
In my case, I shall probably stick with the new section. Reflects the cluttered nature of my brain better.
I'm sure you'll be ok with the twice weekly publishing if you've already finished writing & editing the whole thing. Gives you more time for the meta stuff. I've got about 3 more weeks' worth of 'it's fine as it is' before I have to do more editing and write extra bits. I envy your organisational abilities...
Intriguing start! It hooked me.
Thank you, Noor! Its job is done.😋
I hope you enjoy the subsequent chapters as much, if not more.
Great start, Johnathan! Loved how you introduced the main character and her plight.

You’ve done a fantastic job 👏!
This is a good intro - definitely worth a re-stack now I've read the next two parts...
I hope you do well with this Johnathan. I think it deserves it from what I've seen so far...
