Holy Cow, Ham Lives? · 3:39pm Dec 19th, 2016
Yes, yes I am alive. I do apologize for the extended silence. I have several bits of good news and at least one bit of bad news.
First, the bad news: Chapter 15 of Wasteland Economics is not yet complete.
But now the good news! Chapter 15 is fully drafted, and is now in editing! Chapter 16 is currently underway, and I have made a commitment to myself to finish the draft by January 1st. Currently sitting at about 1/3 complete, but I got this. There were several reasons for the delay, most of them bad, but one of them a continuation of the problems I ran into writing chapter 14. I think I've finally gotten over the hump, and I'm writing a bit every day now.
Going forward, I'll announce to y'all my resolution for 2017 will be to have a backlog of at least one chapter. I want to have one chapter in editing, and one in drafts constantly, rather than letting myself take it easy for a few weeks after a new chapter comes out, like I've always done. As an extension to that, I also plan to renew my pledge for weekly blogposts to keep y'all in the loop.
To everyone who has been patiently waiting for the updates, thank you so much for sticking around, and I sincerely hope y'all enjoy Chapter 15!
Hurray for the fact you're not quite dead yet, hurrah!
I suppose this means its....hamming time?
Huh. That reminds me that I still haven't read chapter 14. I need to be in a special mood to deal with that kind of stuff...
Well, that means I'll soon have two chapters two catch up. Which is positive ;)
Happy writing.
As a fellow writter to another:
My advice is to try and even force yourself to write at least one page when you finally get to sitting down and writing. Not force yourself in the negative connotation, just be sure that when you write, one page a day is the minimum. It really helps.
Plus, Yay! You're alive! I really love your story and it is trully amazing and one of a kind. I hope that my Crimson Tide will be as good one day as yours is ^_-
Yay
