Dog Boy is Finally done.
4 months ago
While I wrote the story a whole year ago [and an older draft even earlier than that], I finally finished uploading Dog Boy to Furaffinity. It is a real intensive process uploading an entire 53 part story to FA. For every chapter I had to - upload a dummy source file pdf. Upload a custom thumbnail that I'd need to make different every time. Paste in the main body text. Paste in the header text. Paste in the links at the bottom, and route them to the correct pages. Then I would need to comb through the text and search for anything that needs to be italicized. Then I needed to add the tags, and then finally, I submit it - and then I go to the last chapter, and route the "next chapter" link to the new chapter.
Woof. A looong process for sure, but I think it's important to make reading a story as convenient as possible. I've seen a lot of stories on the site where I have to go searching for the next chapter, and on an older story, that can absolutely stink, when you're searching through an artist's decade long portfolio. I sincerely hope that FA can improve it's literature tools.
But it's finally done, and I feel like the effort has been worth it. A lot of people have found the story through FA rather than Wattpad or Scribblehub, and I've enjoyed once again seeing people go through the narrative. Hopefully the effort I've gone to make this story convenient to read will lead to many more readers far in the future.
It's up in the air if I'll have more stuff I write here. Life is busy for me, but I do have some ideas floating around. It's really dependent on if I can hash out the plots for my stories, and I don't like uploading any of a story if I don't have a path to finishing it. Readers deserve to have a conclusion.
One last question - how does everyone feel about me keeping or removing the original draft of dog boy from the site? It's sitting in my scraps right now, and for some inexplicable reason, a surprising number of people are still reading it and faving it - and obviously I'd rather they read the new version. xD But I'll get a pulse for what people think before I make a decision on the matter.
Anyway, have a great day all my fellow canine furs, and thanks for reading!
