    What We Talk About When We Talk About Writing - A Small Update

    (At this point, maybe every blog will have a title referencing some literary work, for funsies)

    Hi, everyone! I thought I'd drop by with a quick update as to what I've been working on. Nothing too fancy - I'm not good at making a blog look like that - but I figure this might interest some of you.

    Where I'm Calling From

    Introduction: A Confession

    I lied. 

    Well, maybe that’s a bit of an exaggeration. It would be more accurate to say that I opted for a partial truth. In the words of Carlos Ruiz Zafon, “Perhaps, as always, a lie was what would most resemble the truth”1—and in this fashion, I did lie.

    Going to a con might have been just what I needed...

    ... to get back into the fanfic writing game.

    I might totally be jinxing it by talking about it here, but I also think me saying it at all holds me to it, in a way.

    Or maybe I'm just superstitious. Many writers are. :P

Almost Done · 11:48pm Nov 13th, 2015

I'm onto the final chapter of A Prose By Any Other Name. It will serve as an epilogue of sorts that will also lead the reader to the sequel that I have planned. Once I finish and have edited the story immensely, I think I will change my update schedule to every Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday.

I promise, this story will be finished before Christmas, and I will try to post the rest of the tale before then. Until that time comes, I ask that you all try and be patient as I finalize this story.

Thank you to every one who has supported my writing this story for the past five months. It is not my best work, but it is up there. All those upvotes mean a lot, and even though it hasn't gotten the attention I wanted it to, I thank each and every person who has ever commented on my story. With this being the first long-story I have ever come close to completing, I can honestly say that it was worth all the blocks and lacks of motivation in between the amazing bouts of creativity and insightful characterization and style. I believe that once I am done, I will have found that I have improved my craft to incredible levels—and that I will continue trying to surpass those levels in the future.
