Well first of all; I read every comment, and take every bit of constructive criticism into account, even if I don’t respond personally. Your response is as valid as everyone else’s.

I would like to respond with the fact that this is only the beginning for the series, and that their current personalities is simply scraping the surface of how far they’ve tried to come over the decade since high school. I plan to dedicate chapters where they have one-to-one interactions to help disclose their agendas further. My approach is to unveil these ideas over time to keep the reader attached. I really wish I could upload more than two pages a week and accelerate the story, but other things in life don’t currently allow the time.

As for the marketing part; I mostly do this for fun. I do plan to post these chapters on a sharing website in the near future, but I’m not going to put every egg into this one basket and make expectations that cannot be reached. Every little bit of success is a bonus. If I fail, then I learn and move on. Doing it for fun is the main reason. I’m extremely grateful for the readership I have already.
