Chapter 13 Update! · 3:43pm Feb 29th, 2016
Okay, so! Missed the blogpost last week, mostly out of having not much to report on, but all that has changed this week! I mean, sorta. I have an awful habit of missing scheduled updates when there's nothing to say, which I should really work on. Lots of stuff happened last week, from a slammed-as-hell work week (and getting a raise!!) to Patch 3.2 coming out for Final Fantasy 14, distracting me from writing after hours. Also I cranked out this short story in a few hours for a writing prompt contest (I chose the prompt "Tall Tale"). Didn't win, but I didn't expect to, I just wanted to crank something out while I was otherwise hitting writer's block.
But onto WEcon news: first round of revisions are finally done on Chapter 13, which actually has a proper title now! It's a bit of a weird one, but I like it a lot and I think it fits perfectly, though I'll be keeping it under wraps until the actual release because it has a different meaning in more casual speech. Kudos to Pipistrelle for the suggestion. She's recently started taking accounting classes and enjoying them, which amuses me to no end. Pip is my younger sister, and since I have a minor in business, and both of our parents are CPAs, I have on at least three occasions said to her in a grizzled, Scottish accent, "Yer an accountant, Harry."
I'm really happy with the rewrites so far on chapter 13, though. It still needs work, of course, but now it's actually sitting at a better length and the emotional content is more in line with where it needs to be.
I suppose that wraps things up for today. And by the by, I have a tumblr! If you have any questions or just want to kick me for not writing a blogpost update, feel free to do so!
