    Black Feather Project Update

    The last month has been pretty crazy. My dog got a massive bladder infection and I had to spend $2000 on vet bills to get an ultrasound and all the nonsense that goes with that, all to get a prescription for $30 worth of medicine to fix the situation. Been kinda busy with that as well as upcoming holiday planning, etc.

    One more rewritten chapter

    Hey everyone.

    Well, that last chapter took 3 weeks of hard work, mostly design, but nobody has commented on it so I can't tell how anyone feels about the story so far. I'm hoping people can share their thoughts because it helps me to know how the story is being received.

    More new characters

    I've recently finished a scene where Dinky gets to know one of the platoon members. I find Dinky's POV to be fascinating to write, though all the Dinky POV scenes will be brand new content (for you old fans out there) because Dinky wasn't previously written into this part of the story. She's a fun character to see the world through. Innocent and naïve, happily venturing into things that

    Alright, it's time for a shift of tone.

    I had a pretty long chat with Duvet yesterday, and we decided that chapter eleven really does need a thorough rework from the 2018 version. This is the last of what I'd call my "weak writing". Chapters 12-21 are pretty much perfect, so if I can fix 11, this is going to mean great things for the story.

Yes, I'm still alive.
No, I haven't given up or anything.

I've been taking some much-needed time off from the project. After months of doing not much of anything else, real life snuck up behind my back and whacked me over the head with a massive todo list of things I've been putting off.

That plus I've been honestly fatigued. I'm in the middle of a real-life adjustment which has thrown off my sleep schedule a fair bit. So I have been focusing on a friend's story instead while I take a breather from Black Feather.

Also, the dramas regarding Luna's characterization in the previous chapter really sapped the fun out of writing for a while. I simply couldn't keep going with that going on. This has taught me an important lesson in accepting (or not) critique. Hopefully, that has passed now, so sometime in early September, I'm planning on resuming the story. The next chapter needs some real work, unfortunately. It is a chapter I've been dreading.

In other news, this week BDK has finished his next comic page!
This one took a lot of work, and it turned out better than I expected.
