Hello, I hope everyone's doing well! The winter storm has passed, and my area was fortunate enough to come out of it relatively unscathed. I hope anyone who was also in the storm's path is safe and well.

Over the past week, I've managed to build up a good number of advanced chapters that are currently unedited. I've come to realize that editing is a huge time sink for me (for context, it takes me 1-2 hours to edit one chapter, sometimes more). I'm very thorough with my editing, and my drafts are usually quite rough.

That being said, I don't want to delay the advanced chapters any more considering how long you've already been waiting for them, so I wanted to do a quick poll to get your opinions. My options are currently:

I only upload the advanced chapters once they're edited, but this could mean waiting until the weekend or later.

I upload the drafts, then once the chapters are edited, I update the posts and send a new notification out in case anyone wants to re-read the edited version or wants to wait for the edited chapter.

I do the same thing as above, but I don't send a notification when the chapter is edited. I'd just remove (Unedited) from the post title once it's updated.

Which would you all prefer? To clarify, this only applies to the current batch of advanced chapters. This is a pretty unique situation because of the sheer amount of chapters being uploaded at once. After this, I would return to only posting fully edited advanced chapters.

Any comments and/or suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Take your time and do what you need to do, we can be patient

Unless you are specifically wanting to get feedback on the rough drafts for editing reasons, I’d say just post the chapters when you feel that they are complete. Waiting a couple extra days for your best work isn’t really a bad thing to me.

Never feel bad about delaying chapters because you're editing them! Quality work takes time.
