I'm nearly ready to post my continuation of Jeremy Chandler's "My Summer in Pantyhose." I've continued it to the 2nd week in September. While it obviously leaves the reader wanting more, the title limits the tale to the "summer," so it ends with just a glimpse of what may be to come.
My question is this: Would it benefit the readers for me to post a prologue; a synopsis of Jeremy's portion up to chapter 24, his last posting. The purpose would be to bring readers up to speed on what's gone on before. Or, should I simply encourage readers to go back and read or reread chapters 1 through 24.
Either way, my portion picks with a girl being rescued from an attempted date rape. Without some information about whats gone on the reader will be left wondering how did this happen.
So I leave it to you; prologue or no prologue?
I've not found and editor so everyone will have to put up with my self editing. We all know how that goes. Try as they will, an author never seems to be able to catch all of the problems.

Someone here should take the time to edit for you :*(
I know there are several editors on the site. I wish one of them could :(
And also, go forward with the prologue. It could entice others to go back and reread the chapters as well.

Definitely a prologue.
I'm sure that I read the story when it was posted, but life gets in the way, and a "cheat notes"prologue would be a great help. I will probably reread the original too, but, sadly, tme is finite.
