    Soon!

    I think I've used that blog title three or four times now.

    Anyway! New chapter of Spectacular Seven is almost done! I was hoping it would be done this week so I could post it on Saturday, but I need to rewrite a scene. And that's before I edit it! And before Drakey edits it! The good news is...

    Ten Years, Still Here

    I think back to my nascent days here, reading stories and typing out my own, hoping for the day where I could call myself a veteran of the fandom. My stories would be remembered and I would stand alongside authors like Pen stroke and Aragon.

    And I look where I am now and go, ‘well, you got one big hit. Good enough.’

    Thank You

    I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to everyone who contributed to the GoFundMe or spread the word for it. It really means a lot. Thanks to your donations and getting a little more on my first paycheck than I thought I would, I should be able to stay afloat again.

    My Turn to Ask for Help

    Hello friends.

    I'm trying to raise money for me and Amber Spark after we suffered an accident with a U-Haul truck. The link to the GoFundMe page is here.

So, a bit of a good news, bad news sandwich here.

Good news! Y'all should be getting the next chapter of Spectacular Seven sometime this weekend!

Yaaay!

Bad news! You're getting another dry spell until December!

Booo!

I have a good reason though! After dropping out... three days in last year, I am returning to complete NaNoWriMo 2019 with my main emphasis being Spectacular Seven! This is the excuse and drive I need to plow through the volume. If all goes well, most of volume 3 should be completed as we head into December. A little bit of editing, and you guys will be back to having weekly updates to greet the new decade.

In addition, I will be pouring a few thousand words into a new story that will (hopefully) debut this holiday season.

See? I knew you'd come crawling back to me eventually.

I... never left, but okay, sure. Anyway, to any and all taking part in NaNoWriMo, good luck and godspeed! We can do it!

Also, forgive me for the next chapter. It's not great and writing it was like pulling teeth!

Shame to hear you're not happy with the next chapter, but I think I'll enjoy it anyway.

Good to see you and Sunset back Albi. Went and visited your AO3 page and checked out the SU story you've got going there. As for the next ch., sometimes you've got to get through a tough patch of stinging briars to reach the next leg of your journey.

Looking forward to the next chapter! And I'm sure it'll be great, its just nerves talking there. And I wish you the best of luck as you write Spectacular Seven and more throughout NaNoWriMo! No worries on the dry spell. It's only a month(ish) and it means we'll be getting so much more once it ends. Write the story as you need to to be happy. I know it'll come out spectacular.

Thank you for your hard work and imagination, you're writing is always worth the wait!
