New status bar

Saw this idea by Alcatraz who'd in turn nicked it from NATOstrike, and decided it was really clever.

So from now, I'll keep pure status-updates to my user-page.

For those of you that don't want to click that link just to come back and comment...

My Life As My Ironically Bad OC
Chapter 2 — 75-80% Done — 6720 Words

One Pony's Curse, Is Another Man's Blessing...
Part 2 of intro — 5-10% Done — 386 Words

Sufficiently Advanced
Chapter 4 — 20-25% Done — Complicated (What is basically a whole other chapter needs to be written for this and later.)

Horse Feathers - A tale from the Humans Acting Villainous verse
Chapter 6 — 90-95% Done (but unedited) — 22036 Words (!)

Please feel free to offer any feedback on the current layout.

I'm really glad that Horse Feathers will be updated soon and that it is quite a voluminous chapter. Also, seeing the second chapter of OC coming soon is great as I enjoyed seeing Twilight pissed off. Anyhow, thank you for this progress bar.
P.S: Will the interludes (.5 chapters) appear after the main storyline concludes or will they appear ocassionally? Will the same scenario happen for the rewrites of the other two chapters?

Glad to hear they're both anticipated.

Now there's an excellent question.

Thing is, I've been wrestling really hard with those intermissions. I get why people want them, and such. Truth be told, I even have some cool ideas for them...

But one of the things I personally find the most (on a writing level) impressive about the Dresden books is how hard Butcher has stuck to the first-person perspective. If I start skipping around in intermissions, I lose some of that.

I'm actually leaning towards having them under a completely separate 'sister' story, just so that it becomes easier for those that want to see Björn figure things out at his own pace avoid having any of the twists or what's coming spoiled like that.

...Nothing on Sufficiently Advanced at the moment, sorry. Got quite a few ideas during my improper summer hiatus, but noting new actually on paper yet.

Think next chapter of Ironic might have some stuff you'd like however, if you're itching to edit again. Undead mailman.

Just throw me a PM if that piqued your interests, otherwise I'll throw you one as soon as I've got anything new coming along.
