New Post--Gack, What Happened to My Formatting?

Seriously, what the heck is going on with the posting section for fiction? It doesn't do indentations, so I was using line breaks instead (if you can't mark a change in paragraph with an indentation, you're supposed to use a double space). But now I go back and check on them, only to find that all of that work (removing the spaces that had somehow appeared in the transfer from my word document to the site, changing the format) is completely undone.

 

It looks messy, and bad, and I'm actually getting quite annoyed. I put a lot of effort into making sure that things are well put together, because I have a certain amount of self-respect as an author, as well as a sense of courtesy. As far as I'm concerned, it's rude to post something that has typos, formatting issues, spelling mistakes, or grammar problems. So having this up and randomly changing format is rather upsetting.

 

I'm going to try to fix it all up, and my apologies to anyone who encountered problems when they tried to read my post.

 

There goes another hour.

 

Also, since nobody at all is commenting on my chapters of 'Anya and Anay', even though they're being read, I'm going to leave them up for another few weeks, and if I still haven't gotten any comments, I'm just going to take them down altogether. Just to test the waters a little, I'm going to post another chapter of 'Sam and I'. It wasn't my original intention to put any more of that story up, since it's completed and I'm planning on publishing it, but another chapter won't hurt.

 

So just a head's up to anybody who actually wants me to continue to post 'Anya and Anay', say something! Honestly, even if you want to say "I read it and I thought it was crap", at least it's a comment! Feel free to tell me it's crap, as long as you can justify yourself (ie "I read it and I thought it was crap because..."). Also, something like "I noticed when I was reading that ___ was inconsistent with this prior statement" or "You have a spelling mistake, you hypocrite, see, it's right there" would also be welcome.

 

Essentially, if it's not getting a reaction, there's no point in continuing to post it. So let me know.
