《Heathens》Author Blog Post - The polls, don't trust the polls.

If there's one advantage being on the internet has over traditional publishing, besides anal gape porn, it's the ability to be transparent. I thought I'd share some information on the series and hopefully get some feedback.
As far as schedules go (assuming I don't get assassinated by the CIA in the next couple of months), we are reaching the midpoint of the first season of this book. So if we just multiply the amount of time it took to get here, it should take, probably, two months and a half. Maybe three. Then we'll be wrapping up this book. Looking back to what I've written, I start to cringe. A lot of it is messy, there are too many places of unvaried sentence structure making the flow a little sloppy, the metaphors and technical work is a little off. But I'm glad I've done it, I'll probably go back and do some micro-editing anyways.
The important part about all of this is that I do intend for this season to end. So for those of you who enjoy the series, the important question is, what then?
And the answer of course is, book two. I've already penned some characters and I hope to make my characters a bit more "tri-dimensional". Which is really just saying, I want to make them better. lul.
I also plan to start a bit of an encyclopedia, something like that. If any of you have read Infinite Jest, I plan to take some of the ideas of the footnotes and the telling of the universe through footnotes as a source of inspiration. So again, the question I'm sure you have.
Why the hell do I care? What do you need me for?
Going forward I want a more consistent schedule with consistent writing with consistent quality. The key part about that is, of course, the schedule. As it is right now, I usually post Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays at pretty much, whenever hour I want. But this is flexible, I could post all of my writing on one day as a megadump. I could divide it into two days and create two thicc chapters. Hell, I could write flash fiction and post it up every day. But to know what you want, I need to know what you want. So I'd appreciate it if you'd take some time and participate in the poll, at least so I can get a better feel as to when posting my writing would be best for you, the reader(s). If you want a more particular time, then comment below. If you don't care, well then, I just wasted your time! : )

Sovereign
Is it possible to become a supreme being? After his withdrawal from Space Forces, in which he had spent twenty years of life, Captain Sava Gromov desires an extra reason for his existence. With a vague idea of becoming a merchant, he buys a secondhand spacecraft, loads the cargo, and leaves for an adventurous journey through the Solar System. On his way, he receives an SOS coming from a damaged research spaceship. To rescue the crew in a crisis is the easier part; the harder part comes afterward. The research team discovered an abandoned weapon, originating from a forgotten empire. Unfortunately, not everyone considers the vanished empire harmless. There is an organization actively destroying its remnants. Only two choices remain for Gromov: either to die or operate the unknown weapon in a slight hope that the archaic device may deter his pursuers. Choosing the latter, Gromov assimilates with inhuman digital being into the ultimate symbiosis of the organic and digital world. The Universe turned out to be a dangerous place: full of conflicts, threatening aliens, and unpredictable twists. The unmanageable chaos dwells in desperate need of a unifying force. Will Gromov become the Sovereign of the Solar System? Or will he become the ultimate enemy of humankind? There is an official repository for Sovereign on Github.
