It just means that you have to know the publishing format in advance so you know when to do the exposition reset.

Quote:

If it's self-published I know that already. I'd have to think about that when the time comes.

Even via self-publishing, like the modern Createspace-Kindle "free" package, you need to know your selected lengths to know where to pitch your story info. So, say for example you went for three $3 e-book-only 20-25k novellas and then produced a single volume 70k compliation at around the $13.50 mark, that would mean having three "info intros" sufficiently different that it wouldn't feel like a repeat in the collected work.

The Apostate's most important appearances predate my time on the board also.

Quote:

That makes it even more difficult.

He does make an interesting punching bag, though, because while in some ways he is so much more than Visionary, in all the important ways he is so much less.

And he had never had to cope with the Juniors until now.

Quote:

And this story isn't primarily a whodunnit anyhow. It's about what makes the Parodyverse the Parodyverse.

Quote:

Nothing wrong with that.

Quote:

UT#358 was all about last meetings and deaths. #359 is all about secrets revealed.

Quote:

And duplicates. Lots of duplicates.

The plan appaers to be to gather every unresolved plotline ever left dangling and club the cast to death with them.
