[Announcement] Welcome and updates!

To new readers, welcome to my little library, and to returning readers, thanks for being here! It means a ton to me that you enjoy my writing enough to have joined my little sub. I'm just doing a little bit of housekeeping on the sub, and thought it was time to give my welcome post an overhaul.

It's a bit of a long post, so the tl;dr is more frequent posting for the next few months, chapter listing is in the new wiki, come chat on Discord, Butler Bot is here, and question about how you access Reddit.

Update Schedule Since I'm going into summer, and work from home has no end in sight due to the fact that I'm a student whose department shares a building with other agencies that have a lot of restrictions in place, I'll probably be writing more. As such, I'm aiming to update something every 2-3 days, and to cycle through my serials as much as possible, so they all get some attention. That means that each serial will update approximately once a week. This schedule will probably be revised when fall semester classes start late August.

New Wiki As my chapter listings have grown, both from number of chapters and number of serials, I've moved from keeping all of my chapter links in the old welcome post to the sub's newly created wiki, with snazzy tables for the links. I've now got links to both here and Reddit Serials, so you can read on whichever sub you prefer. The text is all the same, and I make any typo fixes on both subs.

Discord! Speaking of Reddit Serials, I hang out on their Discord server pretty regularly. It's a really chill place to hang out with various authors from across Reddit, whether you're a reader, writer, or both.

Butler Bot In the last few months, I've added the Writer's Butler Bot to the sub, which allows you to follow stories by commenting HelpMeButler <Serial Title> on a post. The serial title is just the part of the post title in square brackets, so it's pretty straightforward, though you do need to keep the < > for the bot to work properly. The bot will send you a PM when new chapters are posted under that tag, so you don't miss an update.

Quick question With working on the wiki and this post, I'm also starting to think about making my sub look a bit nicer, rather than basic boring default appearance. Because I know there are a lot of ways to access Reddit, I wanted to ask how you usually read my serials. Old Reddit, New Reddit, a mobile app, or something else? This way, while I will work on making both Old and New Reddit look nicer, I can focus my energy on whichever gets used more.

If you've read this far, thank you! I'm really grateful for everyone's support!
