All Comments on 'A Game of Stealth'

Hey all. Apologies, I just noticed a few awkward typos right after this dropped. Just goes to show, it never hurts to do just one more proofreading pass. Most notably at one point a man has a woman's pelvis thrust up into his face and then moments later is described as staring at 'his' (own?) crotch.

Hopefully doesn't spoil things for folks. I'll submit a revision but this is my first time using that system so I don't know how it will affect reading lists and such; hopefully it's all seamless. Anyways, hope you enjoy regardless. Thanks for reading!

Update: the revised version has been submitted. I do not know how long these things usually take, it's in Lit's hands now. Took slightly longer than I expected, real life got in the way, plus I wanted to do multiple complete passes to try to make sure I got everything. I did some general low-level edits to increase clarity and flow, but there were no major changes or additions.

In general, I'm going to take this as a sign that I need to leave longer gaps between revisions to make sure I'm not skimming parts I 'know' are 'correct'. You may notice a slightly slower release tempo from me as a result, but I think the final product should be more consistent as a result, so hopefully that works out in everyone's favor.

Maybe I'm just dense, but I can't figure out Star Sheriff's secret weakness. Is it being tied up at all? Or using her lasso against her?

Re: Anonymous. You're not being dense, it is deliberately left unspecified in the text - Python gets told in secret and then laughs because it amuses him but doesn't repeat what it is. That said, if you can figure out who she's very obviously (IMO) intended to stand in for, you can probably take a good guess. If not don't worry she'll show up again soon enough, and it will likely be specified there.

Anyone know how long it typically takes to get a revision through? I submitted it 10 days ago and it's still pending, which is way longer than anything else I've ever submitted has sat. I've had no feedback about it at all. I submitted it with the same title and EDITED after it, which is what the FAQ says to do as far as I could tell. This is currently by most metrics my most popular story to date, so clearly the errors weren't hurting too bad, but it still bugs me that there's stuff I know needs to be fixed that hasn't been. Anyways, if anyone has any advice let me know.

Okay, revision became active today. I may be the only one who cares, but it makes me feel better. Many thanks to the Lit staff that made sure this got taken care of, my apologies for making you do some additional work to cover for my mistakes. I appreciate it!

It’s only a tiny scene at the end but VV doing a camshow for her new master is very enjoyable. I like to imagine Python has shared the link around with his friends.
