    Been a while

    Bit of a long-winded update post. Sorry. That is my writing style, after all.

    So obviously I haven't been active in a hot minute. Two main reasons:

    1 - I wrote way too much way too fast and burned myself out, and as such need time to recharge (that happens a lot with me. My love for writing, among other hobbies, comes and goes).

    Good news and, well, not bad news, but kind of neutral news, I guess? Also next story plan, and a wiki of sorts.

    So uh, the final chapter is ridiculously long. Like, over 20k words long. Obviously that's too much, so I'm splitting it into two chapters.

    Yo I promise I'm not dead

    I'm actually pretty close to finishing part 2 of FiMTech. I know it's been over half a year since the last chapter was released, and I make no excuses; I'm lazy and have things I'd rather be doing. However, I do still write every now and then. I love this series and want to see it completed someday. No telling how long that will take considering the number of titles I have planned for it, but

    Hmm

    Chapter 13 of The War of Annihilation is basically just 5.7k words of dialogue. I can't help but think that's a bit much, but at the same time I don't think I could have made it much shorter while still fully preparing for the next (and final) chapter. Well, the ending should be exciting enough to make up for that, so hopefully it's not too unforgivable. My stories are usually

    Haven't been feeling that writing bug lately

    I've had a bit on my mind the past week and it's kept me from writing anything. I'll try to get back to it at some point. I'm sitting on almost 20k words of a story that I need to proofread so I can submit it, but I just don't have the motivation to do it yet. Soon. Once that's done I'll get back to FiMTech.

Semi-important update · 12:25pm May 3rd, 2019

So two things.

1. The masses have spoken (and by that I mean one person voted on my poll), and they want me to continue the BattleTech spinoff (renamed to FiMTech) so that's what I'll do. I ordered the Legend of the Jade Phoenix trilogy and I'm gonna read the books as fast as I can before I start writing again, so hopefully that will enable me to make the clanners a bit more authentic in how they speak and act.

2. I'm going to rewrite / heavily edit parts of The Clan Civil War, especially in the early chapters. I decided I should read the first part of the story before I went on to the second, and I hadn't realized just how bad my writing was back when I started. There won't be any changes to the story line or anything like that. It's mostly just to make the story more pleasant to read and to tie up some loose ends, so it won't be necessary to re-read them if you don't want to. I'm going to write them all elsewhere so I can release all of the updated chapters at the same time. I'll post a blog after I do that.
