Or actually, just my two-month writing plan from here through Halloween:
It’s amazing what a little time off can do for your creative juices. I have a couple rounds of editing and need to make two or three minor maps in Photoshop before it’s fully ready, but ready it will be for launch this evening. Hopefully that will be a good way for readers to start their weekends.
It’s a big boi, currently coming in at just shy of 12k words as I bring the bonus material back in for a soft landing to merge it with the original material. This means long-awaited awakenings, revelations, continued intrigue, and coping against a backdrop of an ongoing crisis with the Russian Federation Ibexian Ascendancy.
To thank everyone who replied on my previous blog. The outpouring of support I received was very much appreciated, and very much needed for the mood I was in. I will take pains to reply to everyone that commented in the next few days, but first I wanted to make an announcement that I’m sure a significant number of readers will be eager to hear:
I drew a thing last night!
So a couple months ago, my gym partner convinced me to start training to run a half-marathon with him. Feeling game, I began to, but pushed too hard too fast and didn’t upgrade my shoes or socks to something more suitable for running. I made it up to five miles, but the result was severe foot blisters... and a cartilage tear in my right knee that caused severe swelling and pain.
I can't claim to have watched it back then. See, that was my last year at university, and while I should have been studying so I wouldn't get a D in that database course and screw up my GPA so I wouldn't graduate cum laude, I was likely rip-roaring drunk that Saturday night. Even if I hadn't, I still would have been unlikely to see it, if just for the reason that my parents had full control of the house's sole TV on Saturday nights so they might watch such sophisticated fare as Love Boat and
And for readers of Firefly, your presents are as follows:
1. The next Firefly chapter, tentatively titled Rock of Equestria, should be draft complete this weekend and be off to prereaders. Afterwards, I need to create the promised graphics before I release it. Total length will probably be around 9000 words or so as we start into the battles around Maresk and the struggles of the Equestrian Army to escape envelopment and bloody the gryphons a bit five days into the war.
Well, in terms of travel, they're nonexistent since my parents told me to stay away. No Christmas with family this year, though I know I'm hardly alone in that. But as for writing...
Well, I've decided a couple things. I think, after nearly four months of doing it continuously, I've burned out on clop. That's bad news for the Unleash the Magic series, but good news for Firefly. And possibly one other story.
In short, I’m happy to report that the next Continuation and Chronicles release is just a few days away, and I’m finally starting to feel more myself again. Harmonic Resonance is lagging, however, as I’m just finding the going very tough there.
After a full year away. Sorry, folks, but so many other things had my attention and priority before this. The ending of the story has to wait for Midnight Rising to be finished in order to properly set up the climax, but there’s room for at least one and possibly two more intermediate chapters in the meantime.
Which is apt, seeing how my writing plans are ever-so-slightly falling through.
Don’t worry, there will be no delay on the third chapter. However, it was reaching well north of 16k words, so I was forced to split it in two. I’m of the opinion that writers shouldn’t force people to read anymore than 14-15k at a time/per chapter, and even that is pushing it.
Hey, folks. Here's another of my general writing update blogs. Skip ahead or skip over to whatever story you're interested in. They’re listed in the order I’m working on them. Tagging Eros readers for this one since the blog does mention and describe the next Eros chapter to be written within the next month.
I have been working on things. Busy bee goes buzz.
Project Sparkle's second back-to-back chapter is still ongoing because I basically forgot a huge chunk of how I wanted things to happen DESPITE HAVING LITERALLY TEN OR SO PAGES OF NOTES because I am a smart person, and nothing else fit, but I remembered Yorick Mori and so it's now progressing again.
Spike At Your Service is getting another chapter so that's also a back-to-back, because exposition and I must write it.
But it will probably be a few more days yet. Currently sitting at 10k+ words, but the chapter is only about 2/3rds done. It's tentatively titled The Attorney and The Earth Pony, which, yes, is a deliberate play on the title of a certain other story I do.
If you ask someone a yes/no question like "Want to go see Rogue One?" and they answer with something like "I had to wake up at 330 to go to work", then you can make a few assumptions.
1. They're passive aggressive
2. They're a fucking moron.
3. They can't use their big boy words to just say no like an adult.
Of course my reply was "Good for you, so you beat traffic!"
