I finally finished another section of my WIP novel set in my fantasy world called Bennuma, work-in-progress titled as "The Crossing" ...check it out @bennuma-crossing (newest part labeled "3.3" as in, chapter 3, section 3)
Also, as I tend to do, I have added the same to my old blog on Blogspot/Blogger, just in case anyone might prefer reading long posts from that sort of format instead of on Tumblr (easier to locate the oldest posts instead of scrolling all the way down through them all, if you are new to the story)
Someone makes an appearance who hasn't been seen yet in this story. :)
Got the next part of my wip novel up in @bennuma-crossing !
I gotta say here, I really really really enjoy switching pov characters from time to time because I absolutely love exploring the ways that different characters will look at things differently from each other, see others in varying ways, and spend their time thinking about different things. If you like that sort of thing, too, please check out my story. :)
Also, as always, if anyone prefers blogspot format for reading long posts, it's also here:
(someday I might make my own website or put my writing in other places to make it more widely accessible, but for now it's just in those two places)
(see @bennuma-crossing for most recent and all previous sections of the story, skip pinned intro post if desired)
Starting chapter 3 of my WIP-titled story "The Crossing" ...about a camp of people who fled a bronze-age equivalent war zone in a magic-deprived portion of a fantasy world, who come across a traveler from a different (magic-rich) part of the world, who shows up and helps the people from the camp when they need it most, only asking to travel with them in return.
Who is this stranger, where did she come from, and what is her real objective? How will they find a new home where they can live in peace and safety, and what part will be played by the (arguably) most broken man in the camp?
(note: though originally intended to be an adventure story, future chapters may contain a love story, but rest assured I will be keeping it SFW)
also, if anyone happens to prefer blogspot format for reading long posts, you can find the same story on my blog here:
Chapter 2 part 6 of my WIP novel with the work-in-progress title "The Crossing" is up. See @bennuma-crossing for the blog.
If anyone prefers reading long posts in blogger/blogspot format, see the following:
Have posted next section of my current WIP novel, section 2.3
If interested, that blog is @bennuma-crossing
Have a lovely week.
Re: my Bennuma Crossing story
(which btw has a new update, section 2.2 posted (aka chapter 2, second part)
Intro:
Assuming that a fair proportion of followers to this blog are actually followers of The Crossing story ( @bennuma-crossing ) ...and that no one has bothered to follow that blog because they are following this one instead, because I tend to make posts here when I update that story, and random comments or whatever else (including unrelated things) goes in here so that I won't clutter up that blog...
(I could be wrong, but otherwise I have no clue why anyone at all actually follows this blog)
The Question:
Would people reading The Crossing prefer if I post relatively short story sections, in order to attempt to post more frequently? Or, do people prefer to have long sections to read, even if it means they are posted less frequently?
Please reply via comments, choosing one or more of the following multiple choice answers:
"please post more frequently, even if they are short sections"
"please post long sections, even if they are infrequent"
"I choose to write some other kind of comment for some reason"
"What are you even talking about? What is this blog anyway?"

...got the last section of what I currently consider as chapter 1 of The Crossing WIP fantasy novel up now, over in my @bennuma-crossing blog... if you haven't seen it yet, there's sort of an info thing pinned at the top, and then 7 sections (not whole chapters, more like scenes or parts of scenes, depending on how you see it) 1.1 - 1.7 which I am calling "chapter 1"
It's taking place in a fantasy world of my own creation, though currently set in a part of the world where there's almost no magic. (Also, btw, it's relatively early in the history of that world, though there would have been a lot of important historical events that happened previously... think of how on Earth there was such a thing as relatively early in "recorded history" but which was a time period after there had already been a looooooong stretch of time before recorded history in which really quite a lot had happened all over the world... including some of which might have been recorded but subsequently lost)
Reminder: I also have a blog that has more info about the world of Bennuma and history of it and such, @legends-of-bennuma ...I do plan to add more to that at some point of both shorts and general information, but for now plan to put more time into writing chapter 2 of the Crossing, so... no promises about when there will be more of the legends stuff.
