As others have said, versioning is the way to "republish" work on the new site. I use it quite a bit. You can have many versions of the same chapter, usually as a way to hang onto old reviews associated with prior versions of the same chapter. For the most part, the workflow is similar to adding a new chapter, beginning with the Add Chapter step. When you reach the page where you specify the chapter number and chapter notes, choose the same chapter number as the one you want to replace, but increase the version number. As you follow the wizard, you'll have a chance to publish the new version, make it active, and make the older version inactive. If you want, you can keep older versions active as well, assuming you want feedback comparing the versions.

Rindfleischetikettierungsueberwachungsaufgabenuebertragungsgesetz - meaning "law delegating beef label monitoring" - was introduced in 1999 in the state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania.

Brings Google Translate to its knees.

I now return this thread to its rightful owner, Professor Hinkley.

Not sure about CTD and CCFCCP, but I'm 95% sure Google Translate got this one right:
    Seine Hoheit , Kaiser Norton I. von den Vereinigten Staaten und Mexiko
or (slightly tweaked):
    Seine Hoheit , Kaiser Norton der Erste von den Vereinigten Staaten und Mexiko.

Common sense suggests that I, II, III, etc. are used after names in German as in English, although I never came across an instance in my Donald Duck comics. That said, I think "der Erste" sounds more cool, especially for a highborn.

Since you insist, veruekt is roughly crazy or nuts. Scheisse is poop.  In the sentence above, possible translations for scheissveruekten would be bloody or damn (i.e. every bloody Saturday). I'm not aware of any special function for "ver", but my German is limited to basic conversations.

Dieser Scheisse schreibt sich einfach selbst is: this sh*t just writes itself.

I was just thinking today that I should make Joseph of German stock, so I can use German curse words for his ever-increasing potty mouth. I know a lot of the bad ones thanks to years of German school every scheissveruekten Saturday morning when kids should be home watching Bugs Bunny. Who wouldn't love to see Joseph's mother (speaking through Joseph) unload "Leck meine Eier!" at the guards outside the Imperial Palace after he's hit with the first stun blast? One wonders how they would react...

It looks epic. I couldn't get your link to work, but found the trailer here: http://www.risen-movie.com/

Thanks for bringing it to our attention.

Ooh! Hieroglyphics! New language. I wonder if it's possible to curse in hieroglyphics...

Oh dear. I wrote my prologue as a roller coaster ride modeled after Raiders of the Lost Ark as a way to hook the reader.

Thank you, all. I keep finding reasons why Chrome OS won't do. It's unfortunate. I seem to be stuck with Windows.

What would STTNG be without her watery eyes and heaving breasts? It's the closest Star Trek ever came to porn, unless you count Klingon mating rituals.

Are you still thinking of splitting Acts into two? If Alina is to be just a speed bump in Acts, it would be nice for her to still have some ties to the overarching mystery of Acts, rather than just the resident bitch. I came away with the impression that her character arch ran in parallel to the real story, which is why I didn't care when she died. Kind of like Emperor Augustus. He's meh in my story. Not sufficiently well set up to care when he dies.

I agree. Perhaps that's why I never warmed up to her. To me she was meh. The second half of Acts is when things got interesting for me. However, I made the mistake of starting with the wrong book, so take that with a grain of salt.

You still haven't numbered your book titles, BTW. Hint.
