I have posted Chapter 26 of Aztlan Portal, and already made some corrections and just submitted it for re-posting.
I did not send it to my volunteer proofreader, because I have not been able to get good internet access for some time. I do intend to send future chapters to my proofreader, if he is still willing to volunteer his services.
I have been having issues with transportation, the internet, and now my living situation since late 2021. (In addition to my ongoing health issues.)
Yesterday, with the assistance of a friend, I have been able to get repaired the most critical issues with my car. Now I have to schedule getting it to a shop where some assistance in resolving the most necessary issues has been arranged. That may take several weeks, because I have to travel in 5 to 10 mile increments, and arrange transportation home, and then back to get my car when the work is done.
So, for now I will try to post every other week, until I have reliable transportation.
There is a further complication. I won the lawsuit against the property mgmt. co. in charge of where I live. Now they are retaliating. I am packing to move. Packing, and the eventual move will interfere with my writing.
I have written several chapters ahead, however, editing and proofreading are still issues. I put up Chap 26 when I had the opportunity, and as soon as it was up I discovered numerous errors, and have already resubmitted corrections. The different font and format lets me notice things I continue to miss when self-editing.
I have also noticed I have an intermittent formatting error using (br) the Break function (I use the ( not < otherwise it just created a break), in the last several chapters. It is Not an error in the document because there is no change between when it functions correctly, and when it does not.
I have also noticed a couple of times where the font size changes for a paragraph or two.
Because I have not yet made all the corrections I am likely to make, I have not yet consulted Lazeez. I am almost always notified of several spelling or other errors during the week after I first put a chapter up. I will often make those corrections quickly. Over the next month I read PMs sent to me on SOL and Fine Stories.com and then make a subsequent correction 4 to 6 weeks later.
Comments are welcome in the comment section of my story. I prefer that Constructive Criticism be sent to me in a PM. If for no other reason than I am likely to fix errors, then the comment will be moot.
