The power of NU

[Miserys_End]

It would drive me nuts typing lots of text on a flat surface.... I like the feel of touching the keys as I go.

Hey now, flat surfaces have their charm too....*cough*
Anyway, yeah it didnt bother me much with the other tablet(which fit better I my hand) but this one is a monster that is difficult to use with just one hand. So I likely will be ordering the keyboard - case combo. Guess if nothing else, it will make gaming a little easier.

Wait thats so cool. Guess i gotta go crank up those chapies

Woah! Better be releasing new chaps to get on NU front page mehehe

LoL not sure if this incentive is better for the author or the readers xD

 

[FemmeFatale]

My phone rumble a bit when I type

I tried that...and sound effects...just doesn't feel right....but then, I learned how to touch type on typewriters....so maybe it's just what I'm used to?

ebay is your friend. You can generally get a case cover pretty cheap there.

The thing is, right now there isn't much novels so you can get on the front page. But once more and more novels appear, getting on the front page for anything more than a few minutes is going to be hard. Of course there are some tricks you can do to stay on the front page longer and maximize exposure (just like RRL), but still, it'll be tough.

Of course some authors may simply choose to shorten chapters and split them up more. I think RRL sets minimum at 500 characters. Though not sure how readers would appreciate that.

Old enough to know how, but old enough to know better...
I'll give ya a hint, I call her big sister for a reason xD

Old enough to be around when the Berlin Wall fell. \o/

Old enough to definitely know better and seriously not care anymore.

I have stories to tell but miles to go before I sleep.

>.> no offence to people who only write short chapters, but I rarely read novels that have less the 2k words per chapter. Paperback could get away with it, but online means loading times and the page full of adds(no matter how minor) refreshing.

I also prefer longer chapters than shorter ones from a readers point of view.

From a writers point of view, I started with 1.5k+ words in volume 1, than it turned to 2.5k+ in volume 2 and now I'm at like 4k+ at volume 3. Then I published one chapter in volume 3 with 2.5k words and people were like "why such a short chapter?", not realizing it is longer than any volume 1 chapter. (I also have a policy that every chapter should be "complete")

That said, a lot of readers want to see more chapters. So maybe some authors can get away with 500 word chapters if they publish 3-4 of them per day. Who knows *Shrug*

I'm outside of the reach of broadband internet, so in using a nonunlimited data plan. Those ads add up quickly with ever refresh.

Flat surfaces are indeed great too but they cant beat the feeling of touching the mounds of keys

True, a bountiful field of keys to run my fingers accrossed is a pleasant feeling to have.

Do you live outside the city in the country? Like with cows and sheeps?

Do you live outside the city in the country? Like with cows and sheeps?

I do, right in between two small cities(population under 15k between the two oftast them) there is a cow pasture in front, with around 20 head of cattle and behind has wheat fields. So yeah I'm about as close to BFE as I could get, unless it was a little higher in the foothills of the cascades.
