Jed On: Nearly There · 9:17am Nov 6th, 2014
As of about four or five days ago, I started writing the final epic battle scene of The Avatar of Albion. It's a ways off, yet (there's other chapters in-between), but AOA's climactic finale needs so much pre-thought that I felt it would be criminal to not begin writing it now.
It's brought to mind the fact that the journey of this story - a journey which has taken me from not really knowing where this world was going to knowing exactly where it was going, from vaguery to certainty, from being uncertain I could do the concept justice to being eager to keep going - is nearly at a close. There are other things on the way, big things, but they are The Avatar of Albion: they're new things, new tales - many of which happen to be set in the same universe or spin-offs from it - and while that's magnificent, part of me is sad that the story is nearly at an end ("nearly" being relative of course). Still, it's been fun to do and I hope fun to read, and there's still plenty of story before we get to those last, climactic moments...
Jed.
