       Martin and Aran 
       By: Emlyn Morgan Date: August 20, 2022, 9:32 am
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       Does anyone here remember my Martin (and Aran) series? There are
       seven stories published in MMSA. They are my most read stories
       and the most voted for. Well, something provoked me to write
       number eight in the series, and it's ready to post - if any
       story is ever ready.
       My memory told me that I'd written the seven stories over many
       years with the last one just a few years ago. To my great
       surprise, now that I'm ready to post number eight, I see that in
       fact all the previous in the series were posted in 2009 and
       2010.  I can hardly believe it. False memory syndrome!
       Does it make sense to post number eight after all this time?

       Of course, it makes sense.  Actually, it makes more sense doing
       it that way, then consecutively in a short span.
       You will get a whole new set of readers, that will need to go
       back to the start and read the others to catch up, so your
       numbers on the earlier ones should increase.
       My opinion any way.

       Yes, you should definitely post it.

       What's sense got to do with it?

       I have a hard time following my own advice, but here goes:
       Do what you like and don't think too much about what readers may
       think. Maybe the story doesn' t attract masses of readers or
       recomendations. Or  maybe people discover or rediscover your
       series and become fans.
       So, just go for it!

       Well, I posted the story about a month ago and it's now sunk off
       the first page after getting 47/48 recommendations. Not quite
       enough for Flag's new six-pointed stars.
