Good progress is being made on chapter 3 of The End of All That Was, and I think I can reasonably predict that I'll be able to publish chapter 1 on Friday or Saturday.
So, Chapter 2 of The End of All That Was is finished and now in the editing phase, and work begins on the next chapter. But as I sit here staring at a blank page in a Google doc entitled "Chapter 3", swirling a glass of merlot as if I'm classy, I feel compelled to jot down some words about the process of writing, mainly because nothing else is coming to mind.
