Milestone Post #2 · 6:34pm
Some pretty big things to go over, so all of you out there that care about my future endeavors might wanna read on. But first, the milestones. I'm not going to go over them in too much detail this time; there're more important things to talk about.
200 upvotes on Envy and Arrogance. That makes a 20:1 like/dislike ratio, folks, and I'm pretty proud to have readers willing to push me just over the edge. Thanks to every one of you who voted!
600 comments total over all my stories. That's an increase of 33% from just one month ago, and I've replied to each and every one of them!
2000 views on The Story of My Life. Essentially an army of you, new readers of my work or long-time fans, have taken at least a glance at my latest venture into writing. That's not something to scoff at, so be proud of yourselves!
175 followers. It's impressive by anyone's standards to have that many people watching your every move. I'm thankful for each and every one of you!
200000 words published. This is more or less a personal 'chieve of mine, but I wanna throw it out there because I've written a lot and I'm still not even halfway done! I hope you all are ready for the long journey ahead.
Now for the real meat of the post, and really the real reason I made it: I'm here to announce my plans for completing Guilt and Hate, The Story of My Life, and eventually starting the next entry in the Dissonance saga, The Moonlit Dawn.
I intend to finish Guilt and Hate first. I've been running thin on updates and I want to replenish my supply before my schedule catches up on me (I've only written chapter Twenty-Three so far). Oh, and also, Guilt and Hate is stretching far beyond my original projections, so expect tons and tons of stuff to keep you occupied until the end. However, since I only have so many hours in the day to write, I don't intend to update The Story of My Life until I'm completely finished writing it (not publishing, necessarily). Basically, this means that The Story of My Life won't be updated for quite some time, something that I would have liked to avoid, but unfortunately my schedule demands it.
What then, you ask? Well, after I finish publishing both my active projects, I intend to start writing The Moonlit Dawn. I'm not going to tell you the synopsis... yet. I'm still working out the kinks in my overall design plan, although I have a fairly good idea of what it's going to be like. Oh, and before you ask, it's not Deception and Vengeance. That will come much, much later.
However, I don't like to start publishing a story until I have a considerable amount of chapters already written and edited. The only reason I've been able to keep up this one-chapter-every-six-days process is because Guilt and Hate was already halfway written when I started. Thusly, I intend to write three-fourths of The Moonlit Dawn before I ever begin to publish it. During this time, though, I will not update any of my stories, save for perhaps a few secret projects and other riffraff that you may or may not see in the future. I'm predicting a hiatus of about three months.
Don't worry, I intend to finish what I started. Just keep this in mind: Rome wasn't built in a day.
Cheers!

Kinda sad to hear the no updates thing. But in the end it will be for a great reason. I can't wait to read your upcoming stories / updates. You're an amazing writer and defiantly take pride in your work, which is highly commendable and shows. I look forward to everything.
Thank you
My computer has been acting up so I haven't read chapter 17 of G and H yet.
But I'll get to it when I can.
So we're sacrificing updates for a crapton of writing? Seems fair enough to me
Why haven't I even STARTED G&H yet? Aside from the fact that the unread chapters counter on my tracking list has passed the 7000 mark.
"Damn it, Me! I can get through an entire Anita Blake novel in a single 24 hour time span, but I can't put a dent in my tracking list?!?"
Looks like summer just got a bit more dull.
Rome may not of been built in a day, but it burned in one.
EDIT: That sounded a lot less threatening in my head.
"Oh, and before you ask, it's not Deception and Vengeance. That will come much, much later. "
On a happier note though, congrats on 200k! Pretty sweet if I do say so myself :D
Pretty curious about The Moonlit Dawn. Perhaps it's too early for a synopsis, but perhaps a category? Adventure or Slice of Life or Comedy? Or all three? If anyone could do it... Haha! Good luck to you sir.
Congratulations on all those pretty numbers! I look forward to many numbers yet to come.
>>188147 All entries of the Dissonance Saga will follow the same genre pattern. Therefore, TMD will be Adventure/Tragedy.
And I thought the wait between the revamped E&A and G&H was a torture, 3 months?
Well you can't rush quality and as long as you actually finish it I won't complain (but if this suffers the same fate as E:TW at some point 
). Congrats on the numbers 
! Now, on to read the latest G&H chapter!
Nooooo, I was hoping you'd get right into Deception and Vengeance, that series of yours has me HOOKED!
Oh well, I've waited this long, I can keep waiting more! Though, I'm running out of quality adventure/dark (but not gruesome) fics to read while at work! I guess I just read too fast
