    The Economics of a Wasteland

    Well.

    This is a long overdue post, isn't it? Looking back, I honestly can't believe it's been five years since the last chapter released, and, to get to the point straight away, WEcon is not coming back.

    Wherein I admit I'm Terrible at Blogging Regularly

    I'm terrible at blogging regularly.

    Really, I am. I know this, and every time I break silence to say "this time will be different," a small part of me knows I can't keep that up. And on top of that I know that back in October I promised y'all Chapter 17 would be out in November. Clearly, that never happened. So let me clear the air on one thing, absolutely and definitively:

    Blogpost 6/26/2017 - Where the heck is Chapter 16?

    A perfectly justified question and a complicated answer. As a short answer, Chapter 16 has been delayed by a huge project that Pipistrelle had to take on for work. I've actually seen how much of her time it's been demanding of her, and seen her work through most weekends for the past several months. Perhaps I could have tried to release Chapter 16 in a state without her going through the

    Blogpost 4/10/17 - Breaking the Silence

    Alright, remember when I said that I have a bad habit of keeping quiet if I have nothing to report? Yeah, that kinda happened for a bit there. I got crazy busy IRL (and also maybe a bit too absorbed into NieR Automata), but I return with good news! Chapter 16's draft is complete, and editing has begun!

    Blogpost 2/13/17 - 3 Years of WEcon

    Holy shit, 3 years already. It's kind of amazing to me that I've managed to stick with this for as long as I have, and I have y'all to thank for it. Writing this story and seeing people actually enjoy it enough to talk about it in my comments section has been such an emotional rollercoaster, and I know it sounds cliche, but I really, truly cannot thank you guys enough for the joy you've given

Holy Crap! Audio Reading! · 5:09am Mar 7th, 2016

Okay gotta get this out of the way first: still not finished editing ch 13. Editors have had some serious RL stuff come down and hamper editing time, but so far I think things look good.

And hey, while y'all wait, I have started on Chapter 14's draft, trying to keep this train moving. Also, like the title of the post says, the kind Jukebox Mango made an audio reading of the Prologue of WEcon! Go give it a listen!. As for 14, it's in progress, and so far I think the writing for this one is coming easier to me than 12 and 13 did. Dunno what really got me blocked up the last couple chapters, but I'm feeling better here. And this delay on editing gives me a chance to do something I haven't really done since like... chapter 1 or 2, and start on the next draft before the current chapter is up. Maybe even finish the draft before 13 goes up! Not likely, but I can hope.

I'd still like to get 14 done by end of March, but we'll have to see. Chapter-a-month was my New Year's resolution, but 2016 has not been kind to that goal so far. Hopefully getting farther on 14 will get me closer to being on track.

Sorry there's not much great news to report this week, but y'all should really go check out JM's audio reading! Have fun with that, and stay tuned for news on Chapter 13.

So chapter 13 will be up in a few days right??

Yes! We're actually editing the final draft now. I apologize for missing my scheduled blogpost this weekend. I was hoping to post it this week alongside Chapter 13!
