Same here Ian. Vicariously enjoying my own handiwork (+ surprising things I forgot to leave out) as well.
Realised I still had traces of my “boyfriend” (must have the air quotes) in my writing… We haven’t spoken in a while. I’m sure he’s forgotten me. I wish it were just as easy for me.
It’s great to see my chapter and how the research I did for it planned out and for in the context of the blur book.
Such fun.
I still don’t understand how to get a signature for NiaD 91/2 and NiaD 10
Something about signature part. I’m not very tech savvy
But I do want to show of my achievement on here
91/2 and 10
Yay!
IT is really interesting to see how things fit (or don’t fit) together - I started reading Blue (which I’m in) got to my chapter and then read all the other 7s. it’s amazing how 4 different people can take the same outline and come up with something completely different.
I’m a seven! I’m just reading through all of Blue to begin with … thought you did a good job … I like the genuine real-world specifics you put in that I’m so short on — shoes and drinks … and an FTP server!!! Good job.
It feels like I would’ve benefited (or my chapter) if I knew the other events that already passed. For example, I pondered about mentioning a fling between Danny and Alice but I decided against it, and if I knew about the preliminary events around Scott, that fling could be an organic fit in the whole story
Thanks! I had to reconoiter that bit - I thought about 1991 for everything but the tech. Fortunately someone mentioned it on the forum early on and I had to remind myself of what the tech was like back then.
I love the imagery and feel in your version, There’s this beautiful symmetry throughout.
I am Chapter Ten in the Yellow book, by the way.
As I’m new to this whole thing, and English in not my native language, would appreciate any kind of feedback.
As I plan to continue writing in English to publish my dream project eventually
This web-based setting of the novel includes every version of every chapter in a form that makes them easy to browse and select and read, so you can mix and match your own bespoke edition of this extraordinary novel.
Thanks to Pigfender and Rog for another incredible year!

Note: I like to “buy local” including my ISP, so sometimes your initial visit to the site can be slow to load. (What? Does their server have to wake up? Am I their only client? I don’t know. ) Sip some tea.
Tea - sure. Was thinking of spinning up my own server early last year but it got pushed to the back burner. Seems too late to start with Eric A. Blair’s fiction becoming reality, and sobering stuff to handle first.
Every time I refer to you in my own private musings, I sound bearish like, “I wonder when grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr is going to release the bespoke NiaD…” Muchas gracias otra vez.
I wonder: aren’t Pigfender and Rog the same person? Or maybe two sides of the same? Hmm…
Perhaps in a way akin to NIAD cups, I should, with each bespoke edition release, add an ‘r’ to the ‘gr’, and in that way your inner monologue would manifest itself in the world (again).
In these days of climate change, extinctions, and the big orange T, it’s lucky that the 1,088,391,168 versions of On Your Honor are digital only. Otherwise we’d be deforesting the planet faster than McDonalds.
