Seishin Formatting??

[mastergraywolf]

Sooner or later, I want to resume the Seishin series. In October, it will be two years since I've worked (or thought?) on it, and one year since I put it on hiatus. For something I have a passion to portray, a series on life-like ninja, I find Seishin's status to be sad. I plan this to be BIG.

I think I'll go look through Japan's history, particulaly the Muromachi era, through my shelf encyclopedia. I have a Britannica for my computer but it doesn't seem to be working.

Anyways, this is an entry about Seishin's formatting.

Because I had plans to make the full story for at least ONE-HUNDRED chapters, I have decided to split it into a series. So when I decide to do that, the beginning of the descriptions will have a little code that will identify the order of the series.

This isn't completely official



What is important to know is the following:
* VOLUME (or BOOK) Title
* PART (1-3 usually)
* Chapters

The Code would look like the following:

[ VOL Title here: Name of PART ]
[Seishin VOL #, PART#]

I.E:
Iga Tensho Ran # [This is the BOOK Title. PART #roman]: [ PART title ]
[Seishin VOL #, PART #] Year(s) will be stated as well. [description]

FULL EXAMPLE:
Iga Tensho Ran II: Movement
[ Seishin VOL 5. PART 2 ] 1670.

This isn't completely official

[ MEANINGS ]
VOLUME (aka: "New Story"): Also called a BOOK TITLE. While I call it ALL the "Seishin (Pure Heart) series or "Seishin Saga" a title will represent a book (story) that is a part of said series. Ie: Iga Tensho no Ran: Flame is a published fiction of the Seishin Series. It may have a Roman numberal next to it, indicating the PART # (see below)

PARTS: Parts that consist of chapters that partially cover an event/theme and split the VOL/BOOK. They will be uploaded seperately. MAY have at least ten chapters or that is what I am shooting for, before the next PART is uploaded. Each whole VOL (BOOK) might expand to twenty chapters or more.

Chapters: This is simple. They are uploaded to the PARTS like usual stories.

Another example:

[ MORI ONI I: Rampage ]
(Seishin VOl 2, PART 1). 15XX. 10 chapters.

[ MORI ONI II: Revelation ]
(Seishin VOl 2, PART 2). 15XX. 6 chapters.

[ MORI ONI III: Exorcism ]
(Seishin VOl 2, PART 3). 15XX. 5 chapters.

Again, this is just an example and not entirely official.
