'Merai Pulse' is not a conventional blog, but as the title suggests a fantasy novel written in the form of a blog; or, more accurately, chapters of a fantasy-style plot, posted weekly as little written 'webisodes'.
The concept behind the blog is simply as a creative outlet; since graduating last year I've found that I've had very little time or motivation to continue writing. I absolutely love having other people read and enjoy my work, and I want to use this blog as a disciplinary means to keep up a healthy writing schedule, and give people the opportunity to read my work.
So, my rules for the blog are; one chapter posted a week, approx. 2000 words each. Long enough to give people something long enough to sit down and enjoy, not so long that I might fall behind. the chapters will progress like they would in any novel, building upon one another to continue the story like laying down bricks in a construction site.
However, this isn't a normal platform for novelization, in fact, it's closer to the release of manga and anime. So, like the work manga artists do, the whole plot is workable, up for debate. So please, leave me comments if you think something is working or not working; maybe a character you'd like to see more of, or what you think doesn't work. Taking criticism is part of the job, and this is about your enjoyment of the piece as much as it is about mine.
I'll be uploading the first piece soon, and then so on and so on, until it reaches completion! Here's hoping....
I hope you all enjoy 'Merai Pulse'!
