War of the Mark: release date projection · 8:57am Feb 20th, 2022
Okay, small but important update:
Part 3 of the Bastion trilogy, and the final piece of Faux Pas' legacy, is as good as done, in first draft. I've gotten eight out of nine chapters done, the last one was written in one go yesterday. Yeah, turns out I can hit 3k words in one day if I use that little trick I mentioned earlier, it's weird. I kinda feel like my old self again in that respect, still working on the others.
Anywho, finishing chapter 9 will be the goal for this coming week, and editing and finalising everything, consistency edits mostly, will be done once that's through. I'm aiming to publish this story at the latest on Monday the 28th of February.
This one's been a long time coming, and it's been a mixed bag. I mean, fellow writers recommend you kill your darlings, but, umm... I'm pretty sure it's not supposed to be as literal as this story. Some scenes really hurt to write, and editing them will likely hurt more. But it's close to done, at least, and hopefully it'll all have a good impact on the readers, too. I'll see about my next big project once it's out and finished.
Oh, and we are in the middle of the Eunice thing here, there's been a lot of wind and rain, but I happen to be fortunate enough to not suffer any damage as of yet, so no need to worry on my part. Apparently my workplace lost a roof somewhere, but we're still homeworking for the most part, so it didn't shut anything down there, either. We'll know more about the nitty-gritty of it all next week.
Cracker out, enjoy the music if it's your jam.
