Chapter Delay + Important Announcement

Chapter delayed because proofreader was out all day. Nothing much more to say. The chapter shall come out tomorrow with the one that was already meant to come out tomorrow. Double chapter. 

————————————————————————————————

An important service announcement:

tl;dr going back to releasing a few less chapter (3-5/week - based on how many I have to rewrite) like before July to get the editor back on helping me making the story better 

I have been keeping the pulse of critics/reviews/impressions on the story. I feel like before chapter 131 there were too many tangent and after that up till now, the story was stretched unnaturally long for certain chapters. Now, while it would be easy to pin all of this on the fact that I have to write daily chapters, I don't really think that's it. The act of writing is, by all means, the easiest of all the things a writer can do. 

However, what I've been missing since some of the best chapters dropped (128-131) is the help of my editor. He's been writing his own thing in the meanwhile and told me he couldn't check on Casual Heroing anymore for a while. However, seeing that the story is finally getting back on the good-good track and that the writing has both gotten better and received better by the patrons, I asked him to return to help me. Now, the man's a slow reader, so he'll take a week or two to catch up. The chapters I have in my personal backlog are still good for the most part, I believe, so we are safe for a while. However, I'm quickly approaching arcs that are very delicate and tempted me to write several different POVs and tangents. I don't think they are strictly necessary and would love to keep the writing as tight as possible. To do so, I necessarily have to slow down the rate of release to avoid burning my backlog in favor of a daily release so that my editor can help me figure out the next plot points along the way.

I know that going back to releasing less chapters is never the sweet announcement, but hopefully an increased tightness of the story shall hopefully make this sacrifice worth. 

I just want to say in closing that I do read pretty much all the comments, agree with most of you, and want nothing but to provide the best story I can possibly write. 

I'll see you tomorrow with the chapters. 

Peace 💖
