Heyy I was typing this up in your blog but I think it's better written here.
I like feedback but it's not essential, I'm gonna keep writing anyway even if it's absolute shite.
Hmm, I've booted up on my laptop as the pics look OK on my phone and yes, they are kinda tiny. If you poke them they get bigger but I will definitely have a play and see if I can improve that.
Your writing is not shite lol. Have you seen my first few chapters? Mine's the real brown stuff when I first started writing simLit (Prologue and Ch 1.1 are rewrites so they don't count.) My Ch 1.2- Ch 5 is a mess. I think my writing has upgraded to rainbow poop now at least. I'm not the best person to give you feedback but seriously you have nothing to worry about. Your writing and story is engaging. It takes time to get noticed because lots of stories begin but stop fairly quickly. Another thing is getting your name out there. y'know. like and comment on other people's stories and make your presence known. they'll come to yours out of curiosity since the community is pretty small and everyone knows each other so they'll be wondering who's the newbie.
If the pic size works for you then don't worry about it. I like huge pics. Maybe get Plumbob to take a look. it might be my screen resolution.

@mercuryfoam I really do appreciate you taking the time to give me feedback, thank you. I've read your prologue and I enjoyed it; I have you flagged for a binge read next time I have a bath. And then you'll probably have to endure more nonsensical comments on your blog, lucky you. :D
You know, I actually don't mind so much if my audience is small, this is the first story to leave my head after all, it's already far surpassing the audience of the others. But l will take your advice about posting around if only to 'meet' other writer people and find stories.
Pictures look much better on my wordpress blog. In fact it all looks better, but it took me 4 hours just to put my prologue on there and by the time I got to chapter 01 I was so bored that I went and had a beer instead.
I'm having a blast reading this! :mrgreen: One thing I noticed - if you click on your forum link for chapter 2, the link leads you to an error that says the blog page doesn't exist.

Ah, yes thanks for pointing that out. I think because the link contains a naughty word. I've redirected it to the general chapter page instead. (and renamed a couple of future chapters to avoid recurrence... :D)
Glad you're enjoying it!
I don't know if this is an option on Blogger, but Wordpress lets you change the post url to something else without renaming the chapter, if that's any use.

I will probably move over to wordpress at some point, I just need to restock my beer first.
You do it very tastefully with showmanship, so I'll definitely come over to your show if you ever decide to do a comedy routine, but I'll also drag you to a counsellor after because I'm not used to it. You can use that in your next skit of course. :lol:
In all seriousness, I'm having fun reading your story. And as long as you're feeling good about your own work its all that matters. :smile:
