Dumped in the middle of a story with no backstory?

"I'll try to make this series self-existing ___so that the need to read "Long Road" is not entirely necessary, _____ however _____ new readers should keep in mind that this is a continuation of the aforementioned series."

There it is in Black and White.

And now I too am going back to catch up on the long road. .

I hit 2* it came out 5, sorry it will rate higher than it should. I don't like very short stories that are serial that basically go nowhere.

The career part was good. The latter was willfully obscure. Is this a series? Hopefully questions can be answered. Unrated until that fine day.

Not much sense to this scene from a young soldier's life. Gave it 2*s.

What was the point of this?? Looks like it was posted in the wrong category.

Since he wasn't married why is this in LW? The sex was mediocre and the rest of the story was uninteresting. Why bother?

1 star

I would love a Cliff's notes' version of what happened before this story's narrative began. Thank you.

Must be the pain pills. *1

I haven't anything else by you, yet. But this hooked me. Pay no attention to the category purists. I'm interested in what happens next - as well as what led up to this.

5 stars.

Neither option is very good. If this is all there is, it's not much. If this is only chapter 1, a chapter number in the title to warn people this is not a complete story is just common courtesy. Not including one implies indifference.

A good read...I liked it for now, but I think this is far from the end...3*

you couldnt find any other way to end the chapter?

Common courtesy to notify We-The-Readers that a story is part of a series. Some like to hold off and read 'the whole thing!' at one sitting.

They pay really big money to read these stories. I think they should only have to pay a portion of the fee when all segments are not posted. Or edited.

I would love to say that this is a well written story, with detailed images. I would love to point out that I noticed very few editing errors. I would love to say the main character was well developed. Although no one else is. Unfortunately I can't say any of those things because the story broke off almost mid sentence!

I can count one one hand the times I've agreed 100% with annon! TELL YOUR READERS THAT THIS IS A SERIES!!! And then break the story at a logical chapter break..

you need to stop writing. characters aren't likable, plots are uninteresting, writing is bad, confusing and absolutely messy. just stop.

Sheesh, annony went cray cray over this one. He did say it was a serious, it is a continuation of a previous story, and hell these are some very deep and realistic characters. In fairy tales, the characters can be two dimensional and the story still works. These are some gritty, imperfect people, and I love it. Keep up the good work!

You say this is a continuation of "The Long Road", but it's not necessary to read that first.

While I can sort of understand that, it still seems a little illogical!

Enlisted personnel did attend Ranger Indoctrinaction Program and were subsequently assigned to one of the then three Ranger Battalions. However, enlisted personnel do not attend Ranger School after RIP and befo re being assigned to a battalion. Normally they will attend Ranger School after having been in the battalion for a year or so. Once again all of this information is unclassified and very easily obtained online.

Short vignette, hope to read.more. Need to know about the brother.

It's confusing as hell
