Thanks, Nomesque. That's a relief.
I didn't mean to upset Ardeegee - because we agree on a lot. But given that publishing is changing so much, and that there is so many cool things we do now, it's really good to nail down definitions and opinions.
Regardless of whether Smashwords bans or un-bans them - I don't think that "whole novel cut into chunks" style of serial would work with the Smashwords model. That model is suited to periodicals, and subscriptions. (Now if Smashwords were interested in dipping into the subscription model, it might make sense.) The comic book model seems more appropriate.
