In addition to what Rhwawn said, you're already losing control of its deployment. When I typed "friendship is o" into Google (not logged in), it autocompleted the rest, and the search turned up a Goodreads page and two TV Tropes comments about the story.

Oh bloody hell.

Thank you for the alert, now I need to do some sort of emergency launch. So:

  • I very recently reworked the Prologue to focus on David and James due to a my friends objecting to quick throw away characters like that, and recommending that I make the prologue about them. Do you think what I have is good enough to launch?
  • I was thinking of posting Prologue through Chapter 4 in one go (to hook people) and then posting a chapter every couple of days. If I've sort of lost control, should I even bother with that?
  • What am I forgetting?

Haven't read much yet, but once you've got some chapters posted and a posted schedule for the rest you can probably get away with making the Google Docs file private, or replacing it with a link to the Fimfiction page.
