For fun and vague amusement I’m thinking of using my NaNoWriMo novel to jumpstart a web serial in the format of something like " www. [talesofmu.com](http://talesofmu.com) /story " (link broken due to nsfw nature of story). It’s entirely for fun and mostly for my friends, so I don’t want to invest in buying a domain and figuring out how to construct a halfway-usable website and update engine myself. As such, I was assuming that livejournal would be the best platform, but does anyone else have any alternative recommendations?

I always use [fictionpress.com](http://www.fictionpress.com) for writing. It’s free, doesn’t require a domain name registration, and is fairly easy to use. You can also upload serials as multiple chapters. People can also give you reviews.

Oh, this is exactly the sort of thing I hoped existed- thanks!
