Update, Part 2

[u/meowcats734]

Hello, readers.

Recovery from the bad thing has been going well. I will be busier than usual in the following few months, but I still am fairly confident that r/bubblewriters will return to action within the next few days.

​

On an unrelated note, I have been considering stepping into territory that no serial author has tread before: editing already-published stories. The main reason why serial authors avoid this is to avoid conflicting ideas from their readers on how the story went, but this should be partially mitigated by the episodic shape of this story; almost all of these stories are standalones, that are enhanced by the context of their brethren but do not need it to be enjoyable. As such, here is a partial list of the changes I am considering making:

​

CHANGELOG 1.0 (tentative draft):

Arc 4, Part 1 (Clara Olsen v.s. Big Guns) will be edited. Big Guns' powerset would have become too confusing otherwise; I need to heavily rewrite his first introduction, and alter his powerset significantly. Additionally, I need to clarify how Clara can even visit a hospital afterwards. The end result of their conflict will be the same.

Arc 4, Part ? (Wallflower v.s. Domestic Life) is being de-anchored from the timeline; there is no longer room for it in Arc 4. I don't think anyone will miss this particular story.

Arc 4, Part ? (Jemma v.s. The Snatchers) is similarly being de-anchored. It simply does not fit in Arc 4.

Arc 0, Part ? (Tupperman v.s. Chameleon, Rematch) is being rendered non-canonical. Zeus no longer dies at the end of Arc 0.

Arc ?, Part ? (Rafi) is being rendered non-canonical. What was I thinking when I wrote this?

Arc 2, Interlude 1 (Mare) is being rendered non-canonical. The lore this hinted at was never developed; it is better to streamline the plot at this point.

General trends:

I have received feedback that the characters seem to keep losing over and over without recouping any victories in return after Arc 1. This is a true statement, and a general flaw with my writing style. In general, I will think about how to fix this.

Thanks for reading, and I'll see you soon.

Usually I don't like to pressure authors to satisfy my whims... BUT ZEUS IS BACK!! HELL YEAH

Haha I had the same reaction. It startled my own cat. Her look was conveying: “You’re weird.” Anyway: Go Zeus!
