A note on my creative process. · 11:40pm Sep 6th, 2012
I will apologize in advance for being unable to update quite so often as most others seem to be able to do around here. I have set a personal limit of one month until I lock down my pace. Though it will probably become easily a bi-monthly deal.
Why so long?
Well, that is a multifaceted question with just as many answers. The main reason is that I am an American longhaul truck driver, and I own my equipment. Bills have to be payed and that usually means lots of 11+ hour days with no weekends. I do try and squeeze in at least a sentence or paragraph a night, but sometimes I am simply exhausted and I crash the moment I park.
The next is that I simply have a slow, involved writing style that involves a rough draft, then countless re-reads and tweaks, and constant cross-consolation with my editor to polish it into a form worthy of the open world's eyes.
Thirdly is that I am also an artist, and I am chipping away at a ton of designs and work pertaining to this story. The updates arn't directly affected by the art completion, as these are more like "special features" of a DVD in their nature, but there are occasional nights when I just want to kick on a movie or show and draw. This, of course, means one less night of writing production.
I wish to declare, clear as day, my commitment to continue this project to those of you who have so honored me by reading it. My editor has a constant bullwhip to my heels and my confidence, thanks in every way to those who commented, upvoted, and favorited, is resolute.
Thank you once again for your support and interest in my little tale.

P.S.- I do not know how to create polls here ((and im not sure if I even can...)) but I may occasionally issue opinion polls for various titles and small details that I feel my reader base should have a say in approving or not. Partially because I think it is fun to get you all involved, and partially because I have a couple plot arc concepts that may be a bit... controversial (in ways that, of course, don't change my teen-no sex, no excessive gore rating)
