Excessively Absurd Delays

A Real Mess is finally finished. The first part was posted in November of 2011. The second part was posted the following month. The third part was supposed to go up in January but was delayed with the intent of going up in April (or so it seemed based on the "last edited" date). Unfortunately it was delayed again and finally got posted today. It was supposed to go up last night but there were some technical difficulties beyond my control.

And I realized something: I should have actually written the whole thing out first before posting it in portions. It's embarrassing to have almost a year go by for a story to end. The conclusion for Bottle only had a 4 month delay. But 8 months is fucking ridiculous.

As such, I'm going to hold off on presenting any prose until it's totally complete. This might take a while but it'll be better than inadvertently lying and running into bafflingly long delays.

And it'll allow for less disappointment.
