alexandraerinI like using the first comment on a story/chapter to put up my announcements/reminders. It feels less intrusive and gratuitous than wedging the info in before or after the story itself, and I have a feeling it comes across as more conversational... also, it gives a central point on the page for people to reply to the announcement which makes it more likely that I'll spot questions and responses.
If anybody's wondering how I manage to get such wonders of TL;DR in the comment box right after posting, I save the story and open it up in a browser window, type the comment up, and then right after I post the story I submit the comment. Wordpress eats the comment if you try to submit it first.
Hopefully most of them won't be as long as the one I put up tonight. I just wanted to get the people who don't read the blog up to speed on some of the major things.
