...but honestly, I've just thought of two things I could have done in my fest fic that would have been quite nice. I'm having fest fic regret! haha.

Have revised five more chapters of tLS. Unfortunately, I will be spending the next several hours in the nightmare of eBay. (Running to the PO, the grocery store, and then coming home to revise the shipping charges for every single item AGAIN, because it all worked out WRONG. argh! And then preparing for a listing tomorrow, and relisting store items that sold.) Hopefully I'll be able to revise more tonight. Honestly, it's going a lot quicker than expected for the actual revising. (The C&Ping, recoding, and reuploading are really what takes the most time.) I warn those of you who have the tLS sekrit comm friended: spamming will commence very soon.

To those of you who read fics on LJ...I have a question. In the tLS comm where I'm uploading everything, I will have no other fics hosted, so it is a simple matter of hitting the arrow keys to read the next entries. However, I know some people like to have links as well. I have two choices about how to embed links in each chapter.

Either:

Chapter 1 Chapter 2 Chapter 3 etc.

or:

Previous Chapter Next Chapter

Obviously they both have pros and cons. Which do you like better?

If I go with the second choice, I'll also embed a link to chapter one in every entry as well, I think.

I like previous and next because I tend to lose track of what chapter I'm on when reading long, chaptered things, and therefore get confused. But if the only link at the bottom gives a chapter number, there's not much chance of me getting confused because I have no other choice, so I'm fine with that as well. Also, one thing that drives me nuts is when you're on a website and the link doesn't change color once you've clicked. I never remember what I've read and what I haven't.

Oh, wait. You're posting this on LJ? Never mind. The color thing is only an issue on external websites. *g*

I really hate links that don't change color as well. I'm all over the place, and I hate clicking on things twice...it clutters up my tabs. ;)

Yeah, I like previous and next myself, makes it easy. Then I can just leave the tab open until the next day, and pick up where I left off...

I can't wait to finish this comm. Jeepers, what a lot of work.
