Chapter 13 Teaser

[Bob Schroeck]

So, when does 13 get released to the Usual Suspects?

---

It goes to the prereaders on a scene-by-scene basis, as the scenes get written. Every once in a while, usually when someone says "we need to see what this looks like all together", I post the whole thing as it stands to them. But mostly it's one or two scenes at a time. The advantages to this are: a) you don't lose your prereaders to disinterest in the months between releases, and b) they can focus down tightly on each part as needed, and not have to feel intimidated by 200K of rock'em sock'em action dropping bricklike into their inboxes.
As a rough rule of thumb, every time the chapter's size changes on the forums' top page banner subtitle, a new scene has gone to the prereaders. I tend to write one or two scenes a day when possessed by the muse (as I have been for some weeks now).
