You don't have to stop -- that's not what I said. But if you could format it so it reads like regular text, and maybe post shorter bits in separate chunks, it would help. Me, anyway.
Buffy: Synchronized slaying. Faith: New Olympic category?
'Conversations with Dead People'
The Great Write Way, Act Three: Where's the gun?
A place for Buffistas to discuss, beta and otherwise deal and dish on their non-fan fiction projects.

No, silly, don't stop. Email it as a doc to those you want to read it. Better yet, put it up as a locked entry in your LJ and create a filter for readers.
If you format it as a text document, or a manuscript, it will be easier to A. read, and B. sell.

I didn't mean I'd stop writing, I meant I'd stop posting like that.
I'll work something out. But for now...the weekend!

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
I'm hooked. Very hooked. I absolutely would want to read more.

Oh me too! I've always wanted somebody to put comics in text so I could read them. I have a problem reading graphic novels and comics, but text would be awesome.

MM very hooked. I'd totally buy something that started like this. Unlike some of the earlier posters this IS the kind of thing I like, a first rate example besides. But yeah, this board is not the right form. Can I be a beta for this? PleasePleasePlease.
On Edit: When I say not right form, I just mean reading novel length work in posts would drive me nuts. Though I guess you argue, that is a putt rather than a drive.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I read the first paragraph and said, "yes! I would buy this!"

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara
I'd buy it too. That's awesome.
