Progress, Chaos and working in ambulatory care · 7:28pm Nov 16th, 2017
Did you know that there exist people who start their workday at 7 AM and end it around 10? I didn't know that and I have no idea how I'm supposed to ensure that I get my 39 hour week worth of work. Yay, ambulatory care! Also, did you know that there exist heritary diseases that can spontaneously appear in your thirties and kill you in about fifteen years time? Yay, chorea huntington! And did you also know that saving your files on a singular external harddrive is a bad idea when you lose your method of connecting it to your pc and you're left with only files that are outdated, leaving you to stare at the harddrive, curse your own staggering incompetence and then move on to play league of legends only to realize that the internet in your shared apartment is horsedung and the only option is to leave you crying yourself to your sleep?
Of the eighteen (plus epilogue) planned chapters of Lunarium, I have finished writing 4 (plus the epilogue). Which isn't quite the quota I wanted to meet, but at least I can focus my attention on the story I can't just rewrite now. You can part the final act into three shares (gotta love synonyms), of which I finished the last. It's really just the original chapters from 'Can I fix the world?' with better pacing, and, in case of the chapter 'And then I wake...', way more content. So you get a satisfying fight scene at the end, a good look at the world above in the wake of Magia's arrival and, of course, the adorable epilogue through the eyes of everyone's favorite pony: Definitely Caramel.
I don't know if I can finish everything by the end of november, but if not, I'll simply post chapters 1-6 of the third act, one chapter per day, while writing the rest. Hopefully, I can make it through Lunarium by the end of the year and we can go and do other stuff after that. That is, if I can find the bloody cord for my external harddrive.
You know, most computer shops sell spare cords. Should be able to get one for under $10. Just bring in the drive or find out what one you need before you go.
