Chapter 15 is live! · 9:21pm Oct 30th, 2021
Hi, so I am moving on the 3rd, going from Phoenix to Denver. So Chapter 16 may be late like 15 was this month.
So I wanna talk about 15 a little bit, not spoilers but stuff going on behind the scenes.
Botch Chapter 15 and 16 (and a few chapters that are upcomming) need a rewrite due to changes from the very old rough draft (talking like 2017 era writing). So Part of the delay on chapter 15 was due to having to re-write it from top to bottom, overall it is a much better experience than in the past.
Chapter 16 is likely going to be a much more chunky chapter, as it is the start of the next arc. As such I need to establish more than a few things and give our cast a well deserved bit of downtime. And yes we are moving on from Four Corners and moving on up towards Dockland proper, we'll be there in three chapters. As always you will know when we get there. As it is, it also times out nicely as we'll hit Dockland and the proper start of the next arc (the next two chapters are more the connective tissue as an epilogue and interbellum to the Dockland arc). Expect some lore stuff to drop, and I am still considering if I should finish some lore-doc write ups and how to post them on the site or just link to them.
These lore doc's are more for keeping things straight in my own head and a way to externally reference things, they aren't required knowledge and are more informing how I'm writing stuff. Same time I enjoy writing little lore doc's from time to time from an in universe perspective. And I feel they'd be fun little short stories set within the universe even though it is mostly like a MoM report or MoI report on something, likely do an MoA and MoWT one later. But yeah a lot of it just is fluff that isn't needed to enjoy or understand the story, it is mostly stuff that doesn't really fit into the story itself.
Anyways, enjoy the new chapter and expect more towards the end of November, I'll try to do it before or after US Thanksgiving as to not crowd people's schedules around family gatherings and holidays.
Also on the part of moving we're kinda fucked with the situation we're moving into so I'm likely working from home while my partner earns the bread. So uh expect a mention post move about opening written commissions and to see a written commission that I've already done put up. Kinda have to stay home to make certain nobody tries to steal anything. And to that end I really hope I don't have to use my shotgun, but it's a rougher part of Denver and the only option we had after a lot of other backups fell through.
