Hi, I'm Newbie Bill Bishop. I do some writing for boating magazines largely based on my experience with marine electronics. I have a reasonably popular blog that has had over 2m page views with a ton of content I started in 2009. I'm writing a light entertaining Sci-fi novel and am taking a much different path than most. I'm writing mine online a chapter at a time. It has copyright protection so I don't worry about theft. Anyone can read it, but since I don't push it there are only a very few readers and no feedback. My theory is that if it's good enough when done I can push hard it into the ether and see if it gets any readers. If it's decent a publisher may approach me if it gets attention so I don't have to get a ton of rejection letters. I also have another purpose in mind for it if the body of work is good enough. The only awkward thing about the project is Google's Blogger editor doesn't let me do paragraph indents which has forced me to do a dialog workaround. So my 64K question is how can I tell of the work is good? I think the story is good, it's the telling of it that I'm concerned about. I'll be a good participant here and do my best to impart any help I can, where ever I can. Many thanks, Bill
