Today’s reset of Maroli Tango ~ A Serial Novel is brought to you by Oupac of Ionia, also known as Homer the Greek, who must surely have edited a chapter or two in his day.
- Chapters 2.1.x are ‘new’.
- Chapters 5 + contain changes
- Chapters 7 & 12 were discarded.
- What was 8 is now 7 and on up the line until 13, all of which are new-ish.
These edits pushed the inciting event farther out, from page 30 to 42. The deliverables are stronger worldbuilding and character development in advance of a fast-paced story.
The cost is a delayed payoff on foreshadowed conflict.
It was a difficult decision to make, but if readers give up on early chapters for lack of explosions and car chases, they’re shopping at the wrong store.
Tell me if you think I'm wrong. That's why I'm here.
By the way, there are explosions, perhaps more than you will expect.
