Somebody stands in a window, watches the river roll; trains rumble in the foreground with the weight of approaching dawn. Flames from the refinery rise, broken, red, and riveting, and the high vault of heaven looks far away and cold. There's a howling in the factory yard; there's a pounding in my head.

Any REMOTE possibility that you could post the sections 12 hours apart? ROFL

*giggle* Well, if I think I won't be awake in early morning my time to post it, I'll post before I sleep instead of leaving people on the edge of their seats ... that's the problems with semi-scheduled posting when you don't live on 24h time. *laugh*

To read or not to read, huh? Oh, who am I kidding, of course I'll read it as it's posted *g*

But before then, I have Dial tones waiting for me.

I always tell myself I'll wait until something's fully posted, too, and then I totally have no willpower. *laugh*

As long as it's the good kind. *g*

(I actually was vaguely inspired by what Shadow Unit did for their season finale, and watching how well it worked for them. I hope it works here, too.)

Hang on. If you're not responding to comments until it's all posted, do you have:
a) a snow shovel
b) a backup snow shovel
c) a hardhat
d) a St. Bernard?

Because it would be terrible to lose you in drifted email comments.

Yeah, I can't actually deal with serialisation of novels. It hurts my soul. It's not that I don't appreciate the reasons why one might. It's just that I am, in fact, that bad at delayed gratification when I *know* the story's written. *wry*
