Updates posting now

Okay. I've just uploaded a revised version of the Prelude to SM4200. I've also posted it (in slightly modified format) to fanfiction.net. Updates to at least chapters 1-4 will follow, though not immediately.

(Let me tell you, developing a general script to convert from plaintext to HTML, especially creating the normal version plus a "dumb HTML" version for ff.net, is no picnic. Coping with fancy headers, adding the stylesheets, and so forth…yeesh.)

The changes to the prelude are extremely minor—minor tweaks to wording, and the like. Later chapters will get more of an update. Chapters 1 and 2, for example, are getting new titles (the old ones being a little too silly for my tastes these days), whereas one scene in chapter 3—the bank robbery—has been extensively rewritten to pay a little more attention to common sense, not to mention the laws of physics. The actual impact of the scene in question, though, has not changed.

I've been sitting on this stuff for a while now, but there's no point in holding onto it forever.

 

Addendum: I've now reposted the first five chapters.
