The only thing I can say about this was that I started to write this out of enjoyment, but it quickly turned sour when I realised that I wasn't following what I wanted, and paid heed too much to being ambitious.

Recently there's been a lot of comments telling me that it is getting hard for readers to keep track of what is going on. Readers have a fair point when they say: "This is rapidly becoming a mish mash of plots, I don't get what's going on". If you don't want to read huge descriptions about character motivations and thematic choices, please skip this post. If you're interested, please read on.

Deep within the darkness of the Writer's workshop, a lone dweller uncovers the small file covered in dust and particulates of meta-matter.

"Human Blood," the dweller whispers to itself. "I thought this was all but lost."

Nay, Reality was not kind enough to let that story go, and so prompted by some kind of inner motivation, the dweller opened the file and read its contents. Perhaps one day it will be transcribed. Then all will see it.

That's right.

Now features almost 150 % more David, and action, and kidnappings, and magic spells.

Human Blood in pre-reading.

And a subtitle: I need to stop being an asshole.

Sorry to my pre-readers. I know the job title says 'pre-readers' but it's more like 'editors'. I sincerely apologise to all of you for just shoving the chapter in your face and then posting it in a few hours. I should have mentioned that there was no pressure to perform within those couple of hours, in fact nearly 100% of my stories are retroactively edited. (Sorry Sharp Quill, I think I pissed you off).

Chapter 3 is undergoing peer-review pre-reading process. Hopefully kinks and other hijinks will be ironed out soon. Other than that, if you want to chat to me, or harangue me about any stories I need to update, you can pester me more directly on Skype: hackloaded

Other than that, you can send me a PM and encourage me to write faster by sending compliments to stroke my ego, or insults to lower my expectations of a positive response. Whichever tickles your fancy.

Now that Human Blood is out of the box of shame I can now enjoy writing without the added pressure of public scrutiny— oh, I see what you did there you dirty scoundrel, you. Between editing for a few fics, and general work, I'm happy to report that I've written just about close to a four thousand to five thousand words for Human Blood. If you like the story, feel free to cajole me in comments.

Or cajole me anyway, you heartless people.
