I look forward to reading "The Rising" more or less as it appears. I got in on "Rebirth" when it was done, or nearly so (I don't remember right now). Naturally I started reading it at the beginning, since 'blooks' let you do that, but it does you as a writer more good when readers see the chapters fairly soon after they appear.
So here's the deal. I'll try to get to "The Rising" at least once a week, but you'd better keep it coming or I'll be mad. Not that that really matters, of course. But since a couple of other blooks disappeared in the middle (I won't name names, but they weren't yours) I thought I'd mention that.
Thanks for sharing your work.
Thanks for your comment. The chapters will appear every Monday, Wednesday and Friday and I plan to use Blogger.com's scheduling function to make sure I don't miss the schedule.
'The Rising' is 100% edited, complete and I have finished copies of the paperback in my hand so you don't have to worry about it disappearing half way in. Once I've got the schedule set up, even my death won't stop the whole thing being published. It might stop part 3 being written though ;)
I'm a firm believer in writing the whole novel before posting it online. I even wrote a guest blog post at Novelr about it...

Scott,
From the theme of these novels, it would seem that your death would only delay rather than halt the writing of the third part ;)
