    My Compromise to Myself

    So I mentioned before that I've been very tempted to completely re-write CotE. When I first started writing it, I didn't have a complete picture or direction to take it as it was simply a story that was supposed to be episodic and silly and a way for me to experiment and improve my writing. But then I got really, really attached to these characters and I started truly investing in the story,

    Where I've Been

    A new career, 2 major moves, and a whole host of other small problems adding up basically had me push writing to the sidelines for a bit. Yet, I've still been around writing down ideas I gained and how to implement them. If he wishes to, a buddy of mine on this site can attest to the amount of ideas and words I've thrown his way for his opinions. As things begin to settle down, I'm starting to

    An Update Long Past Due

    Been a long while, eh? It's been, what? since around February or so since I last updated CotE? Either way, waaaaayyyyyy longer than I've been hoping for. So what gives? Why the low amount of updates? Well, the news isn't all that great, unfortunately. To put it simply, throughout this and last year I've been in quite a bit of pain. Now, for the most part, this pain had been dull and on and off

    Arrival Reworked and Other Updates

    Hey all! Just want you all to know that I went back and edited and changed a couple of details in the chapter Arrival. Not so groundbreaking that it requires a re-read, but may be something to peak your interest while I work on the next chapter.

BLUF: Next chapter nearly finished. Changing out tags.

Oi vavoy! I finally managed to finish the draft for the next chapter. It is way, way, way longer than I anticipated. As of now, it's around 14,000 words long making it my second longest chapter to date. What was suppose to be a simple, easy going slice of life chapter has completely turned into something filled with much more drama. Speaking of drama, when I finally release this chapter I will also be changing out the Slice of Life tag for the drama tag as I believe that will better fit this story moving forward.

Normally, when I get to this point, it only takes me a day or two to freshen some scenes up and finally publish the chapter. I'm going to be honest here, this one may take me anywhere from a few days to a couple of weeks. It's very rough around the edges and I nearly burned myself out trying to get to the end, so I want to take some extra time to go through it all. I'm looking forward to the chapter after this one. That one is expected (keyword: "expected") to have a more slice of life focus as well as introducing the return of a character we've been missing out on so far. It will be a nice break before we get back into some more gritty stuff soon after.

That's it from me. Here's hoping to get back to you all soon.

Looking ahead, I'm starting to have doubts about that comedy tag as well... The joys of writing an ever evolving story.
