Anniversary. Thing. · 10:49pm Nov 2nd, 2014
One year. Three hundred and fifty-six days. π·10⁷s. That's about how long it's been since I published Ducenti Septuaginta Septem.
Well, yeah.
Now, fifty thousand words later, I have to admit: I am a lazy bum. Or, put more nicely, I am a slow writer.
Anyway, it's been quite fun. There have been a few nice comments, and nobody has told me my writing makes their brain melt, so I guess it was a success.
However, there's one thing that confuses me: The number of views. Just last month, it hit six thousand. I mean, what's up with that? Is it just me, or is that ridiculously high in comparison to the other stats?
Still, thanks to anyone who read and enjoyed it, because it makes me happy when other people enjoy what I write. Or something, There's probably some fancy psychological explanation for that, but I don't care right now.
Now, I originally wanted to post the incredibly delayed eleventh chapter (and it's nearly ready, I swear), that I said in August I would probably post soon (Had to rewrite it, though), today, but I am lazy, I am slow, and that chapter is one tough cookie. So, sorry, no chapter for you today.
Also, I am doing a revision of everything I have already posted. I would like to think I have learned at least something about writing during the last year, and there are some things I am dissatisfied with. So I'm going to correct them. And if I find typos, all the better.
Moreover, I have decided to break the story into at least four parts. They'll all be part of the same story, I won't post them as individual stories on FIMFiction, so it's just a thing to structure the whole thing a bit better.
So the first ten chapters are now part one, "The Prophecy, the Princess and the Portal", and when the next chapter comes out (along with the revision) it's gonna be the beginning of the second part, which I have not named yet. Because I am still a lazy author.
On the bright side, I have worked on the entire story's outline, so everything's a bit clearer now. I may not exactly know what I'm doing, but at least I know where I'm going with the story.
So, that said, everyone have a nice day. Bye.
P.S.: I am thoroughly dissatisfied with this post, but I'm tired and I'm not really having a great day, so I can't be bothered.
