Windows default text editor and then near the end I refine the formatting in a Rich Text editor.

I've been working on a piece of fan fiction for over a week now in pose form.

In this work I've been practicing an old habit from my days of writing the 26th Century episodes, of once in a while loading the story into a PDF maker to see how long the story really is. This is my normal way of breaking up chapters after a certain amount of pages.

I don't understand what is going on right now in the formatting that maybe some one here could clarify. For a while it seemed I had written 16 pages worth of the story so far. Then I decided to send it to my boyfriend to read over and get his opinion of it so far since he's used to writing pose based fan fiction himself.

So after this happened, on the next PDF check, 16 pages became 11 pages.

I wondered if this was some odd word wrapping issue with my text editor, but that didn't seem to make a difference when testing theory to uncover the mystery.

This morning I wrote what I consider about a page or so's worth of work. Now the PDF maker is saying I've typed 21 pages for the  story so far?!

Nothing had been written in between the check that said 11 pages had been written. What the heck is going on here? My formatting in how I'm writing this has been steady since the start on style.

...Only good for fan art blogs & podcasts  ?

How do you add tags  ?

What is the point of this site? I gained an account with them a few months ago because a friend insisted I do so in that it would help my exposure as an artist. To my knowledge it's just collecting dust except for postings I make to it. Is there some way to tell if people are even looking at a Tumblr blog? Ok, yes comments but there aren't any ...do ..can Tumblr blogs get comments?

Thank you  !
And now two pieces for the first time in months. Watch how only the mods. will comment and no one else will since it isn't G4 styled  !

I asked permission in the Sigs & Site Support part of the forum permission to make this posting and Kiwi granted it.

I've been working on a web comic named Light Bulbs for a few years now, specifically since Oct. 17th '11. It is in an oddball sense kind of follow up to a virtual series written before it. It barely has any readers and that's why I thought to make this topic. To maybe intrigue some of you into reading it.

The series is sci fi & fantasy based with a continuous plot. But that plot is broken into chapters which at this point is currently on it's fourth chapter. It updates every Monday and I haven't missed an update of adding installments to it but once back in '12.

The low down on it so far is it's set next century and nature has been obliterated. Nothing bad like a war occurred to have this happen, how it happened is supposed to be the progress of people's thoughtless destruction of the environment for the newer and better. One man named Gray decides he wants to be a wizard and try to return magic to the world and try to better it. Besides one mistake use of magic in the beginning, he conjures up a teacher wizard to guide him in lessons. How ever what he gets is an unhappy to be where he is wizard named Glendake who is from the distant past. He'd rather not be teacher to Gray and would rather be in his own time but is forced to abide Gray's wishes because he can't get back to his time. Why? Because wizards & witches draw their power from the environment, second they also draw this power from being fueled by each other's power. Neither one exists in 22rd century Earth. Top that with Glendake only having just been certified at his job, so he's some what new to practicing magic him self.

Glendake knows the world has to be restored to having forests, grass, flowers, you name it, even non-polluted sky & water for his magic to truly work again. Dragon, Glendake knows are a key source to restoring the planet. A dragon under control of a wizard won't shoot out fire. Instead they can be forced to shoot out plants & animals. Currently the only notable dragon in the series so far, "Watt" has produced a few flowers ...that and not by Glendake's command a full size pine tree in the middle of a court room.

Various other characters are also in this series. From genetically engineered creatures named Znos who were the under class of society for a long time. To a man from another universe forced into this universe by Gray's mistake in use of magic, his companion being what looks to be a talking skunk but is actually a powerful alien. To fairies who were brought into existence by a wizard not Glendake, that were once upon a time Human. To a pair of men who have knowledge of higher beings that are akin to gods that they talk with. To people refereed to shadows that come from a place that no longer exists with a powerful beast. There are many interesting characters in this series that if I went into details over all of them this post would be too long.

In the beginning I didn't give a rat's butt about the art to the series, so I know it looks bad. But currently the series has a good set style.
