OK, a new chapter is out. Hope you enjoy it.

Hi all!
          
          I release the next chapter on Saturday, so I'd love feedback.
          
          I plan to finish the story (4 more chapters) for those following along and see if I can't get some traction with the publishers.
          
          I have six weeks before Uni starts, but I only got two units this year to finish my Honours and hopefully secure a place to a PhD. 
          
          I am also working on some other pieces, mostly Sci-Fi, but I want to finish this story first, and I am enjoying the process of writing regularly and publishing.
          
          I like the Wattpad model, except for what it does to my formatting. 
          
          I like the ranking system. I don't understand how it works, but it's always good to see a number 1 ranking for the various hashtags.
          
          Please let me know if there is anything that doesn't make sense or if there is a character arc you'd like to see.
          
          Cheers
          
          Mike

Ok, it's the last day of the year, and I'm gonna say that's a wrap for Dot Com Boom for 2022. 
          
          It's been a fantastic year. I completed the bulk of my honours, which included a 15k-word creative piece and a 5k exegetical essay explaining my creative process. What a great way to spend the year. 
          
          I have tried to apply what I learnt this year with my studies back into this story, and the result is almost a complete rewrite. We published chapter 10 today, which was fun to write.
          
          There are a few chapters to go, but I would love feedback from anyone regarding the story.
          
          I'm looking forward to 2023, and, hopefully, completing this crazy adventure.

Hello, if you are following along and thank you.
          
          Anyone writing anything will know it is way harder than it looks to produce finished results. 
          
          I'm working on a bunch of projects, but I still love the Dot Com Boom story.  Most of what I write is science fiction, and this is the only historical fiction I'm working on.  It's weird to think of it as historical; it was 20 years ago.

Hello, 
          
          I am pleased to announce that Chapter 5 has been released. I'd love it if you read it and give it a vote if you like it. 
          
          I am partway through chapter 6, which will be the end. Hopefully, I will release it next month. 
          
          Let me know what you think. 
          
          Cheers

Hello,
          
          I aim to release chapter 5 of Webmoney this weekend (15th August). It will be the second last chapter, and hopefully, it will take you for a ride into Melbourne, Australia, New Year's Eve, 1999 :-)
          
          If you haven't read the entire story for a while, I have continually polished each chapter, so hopefully, you can find something new in there. 
          
          Thanks again for following along.
          
          Cheers
          
          Mike

Hi to my followers (my favourite people ever).  I have just released chapter 4, and I would love for you to read it and give me your feedback. 
          
          I have gone back and polished the previous chapters, and to be honest, chapter 2 needs more content. It is the only chapter from Ceebees POV so far, which is kinda cool to write. Please share my story if you like it, I am trying to build a readership, and everyone counts.
          
          Cheers
          
          Mike
