BattleTech: Scorched Earth Novel #1 "Tides of Fire"

Post by Steve »

Added a tenth section of recently-completed material. The novel is now at 139,544 words.

Like the good Duchess of Zeon, Marina, I am putting a shitload of effort into something that will probably only be read, at the very most, by a few hundred people.

American Conservatism is about the exercise of personal responsibility without state interference in the lives of the citizenry..... unless, of course, it involves using the bludgeon of state power to suppress things Conservatives do not like.

I suppose I should make the standard font bigger. It's just my habit to write in Times New Roman Size 10.

You wrote in size 8, I don't go that far. :P

Seriously, I posted something for people to read and enjoy, and all I'm getting is feedback about font sizes? :?

Maybe a little bigger, or a little more white space Steve.
