    Thank you, Deathtap... Hiatus finished.

    Just a short blurb.
    Eclipse:HoFF is no longer on Hiatus. Thank you few who have had the patience to let my career finish whipping the ever-loving hell out of me.

    And a special thanks to Deathtap... sometimes the smallest gestures, the simplest words in the long silence, hits with the greatest impact.

    As Bender would say, "Im back, Bebeh!"

    Existing Chapters of Eclipse Updated!

    Just a short Update.

    The Prologue and all three parts of Chapter One are updated. I have ground thought them with a finetoothed comb and, in addition to correcting quite a few tiny format mistakes pointed out by the EqD prereaders, I have simplified the names addressed throughout the existing story to date.

    Well Rested and returning to bliss

    This holiday season brought the first vacation I have had in nearly 4 years, working 14 hours a day for 6 days a week... All I can say is, "I needed it." Many good times were hand, and more importantly, much world-weariness and fatigue was washes away in good beer and great friendships. A few issues still plague my mind, but i'll leave that for another time.

    Holidays and Status

    Happy holidays everyone! I am enjoying my first vacation in more than 3 years, and I hope that you all are enjoying similar bliss! As such, however, production has slowed on the project. Thank you all who have Favorited Eclipse, and I assure you that i am not gone... The holiday season is a hectic one for an OTR truck driver, and my vacation is full of events that remove me from my computer.

    And I'm Back... sorta...

    Just a short, and more positive few words. I'm back... sort of. Still have a lot of work to do, and its slow in the making. I don't know if anyone even reads these blog posts, but yeah... the desire to tell my story is slowly returning.

    Cheers

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.
-Cory "Spectre" Yeaman

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)
