    LLtK complete - 04/04/2017

    It’s not perfect but it’s finished. I got to move on or I will stall forever it seems. It's not 100% but it's done. Long Live the King final chapters are now live. I'll probable come back later with another blog post with a look back on the story and how it feels to finally be done with it.

    Not perfect, but finished - 27/03/2017

    'allo 'allo.

    The story...is done? I’m not really sure. My stomach has been doing back-flips today. Maybe it’s all the coffee I’ve been drinking...maybe not.

    Blog Title Here - 21/03/2017

    *emerges from the cold vat of the existential void*

    I live!

    So! Ch. 8 “Home” (simple title I know) is feeling rather done. Yet, not done….’cause it’s rather short then what I’m used to writing for a chapter...eh. I’ll get over it.

    Blog Post - 10/03/2017

    Final two chapters are coming along...slowly-ish-ness-like. I’m not really sure. Don’t want to say too much about what’s in the chapters only that it’s slow moving in the writing of them. I’ve managed approximately 3,500 words through the whole week. Not a whole lot considering. At the same time though what the last few things say is pretty important since scenes are rather quick and compact so

    Ch. 7 online - 2/03/2017

    On Chapter 7; Magic In Magic Out, Snow Day, A Little Change (Now Live)

    I’m a little worried about the pacing for chapter 7. Or more importantly if Sombra’s character has changed too quickly. I’m probably right, if I’m worrying about it then something’s probably off. I hope that’s just me, and it’s not too glaring for readers all the same.

Update - 8/02/2017 · 6:07am Feb 8th, 2017

Will I or will I not l not split ch. 6 up into two sections. That's the question.

I’ve read stories with 10,000 words in a chapter and it can be quite the trek to get through I know. So yeah, thinking to keep my chapters away from hitting over the mark in a single chapter.

The more I think about it too my story isn't all that great, it probable even could be considered good at this point. But that’s ok, progress has holes in it. Can’t succeed till you fail. The trick, so I’ve read somewhere, is to fail quickly. Haha, ok! So I’m writing LLtK as quick like as I can and man, it’s kinda messy, but it’s progress. So...yay?

Oh yeah, chapter 6 looks about done. As usual though I’m going to go back to beginning of the story and read it all together to see if it all fits and there’s not too many ‘huh, wtf’ moments.

I’m also thinking whether or not to finish chapter 7 before posting the finished chapter 6. Honestly, I don’t think it matters at this point. Once I get the end of the story there will probable be a massive overhaul of the story. Since everything will be there and then one BIG EDIT can take place.

Should be interesting to see what I ends up changing, because there will be some changes I reckon, once the story is completed. It’s also will probable be beneficial chopping up the chapters into smaller bite sizes as that means I won't have to add in new unexpected chapters but instead just expand from what's already there. Essentially making smaller chapters large and unique enough that there a chapter in their own right. (Or some such logic)

Basically, I’m stitching everything together as quickly as I can. Since I want this story done and dusted and out the door. Its a plague on my mind I tell ya!
