Quick update: I'm about halfway through chapter 18 at the moment.

Now for the Real News: I figured it's about time to overcome my childhood trauma from playing Hot Cross Buns and get out my mum's old recorder. :P This is my first serious foray into songwriting, so I hope you like it, but don't lie if it's terrible. I have my wonderful flatmate, Steph Cinder*, to thank for the guitar playing. And if you get the reference in the song, I love you.

My hard drive, the one with all my saved copies of my chapters (including the Christmas Beacon) , has been suffering from mounting errors since early Monday morning. I am trying to resolve te issue and get my stuff back, so please bear with me.

At the latest, the Christmas Beacon will be up by the end of this upcoming week (on the chance I have to rewrite it all D: ) and so will the new Obamaverse/Curse crossover chapter.

The inflections, tones, and cadence are a bit weird, but maybe I'll get better at this someday. I'm assuming that I can actually change this stuff when messing around with 15.ai so I just need to learn it better.
This is from chapter 59, closer to the end. I'm not 100% happy with it, but I am happy that I could do it. And I'm thinking of edits to make to the story itself. I should probably put that energy towards the sequel.

if it weren't for the fact that i'm not supposed to respond to any of the feedback until class time on Tuesday, I would ABSOLUTELY be going feral rn

In April, I made this blog post: "Where That Story Went Today."

After a newly posted story of mine was analyzed and critiqued in considerable detail by an especially skilled writer whose thoughts I took (and still take) seriously, I unpublished the story while it was still very new.

I am. Every day. I get on my computer, see the open text documents, go "I need to write something today," and basically Nope on it.

I'm sure that there's at least a few of you who's done that.

I'm stuck on writing. There are too many things I want to write, on top of myself suddenly jumping off into the deep end of the Ace Attorney fics and franchise. Now I wanna write two, maybe three, stories with that as a crossover.

Of course only one of them's going to be readable here.

The alternative title for the message I got regarding my new story. Oh, and I submitted a new story. Huzzah~

You heard me right.

Yep, I'm saying this right in the middle of reading through chapter 19, when she performs her arguably most horrific acts.

*Spend effort writing a oneshot of Sunset and Twilight accidentally mutating a lab rat to giant proportions. They have to save the school.*
*Post it, it's not the best fic but I wrote a oneshot today so life's good.*
*Wake up.*

Oh.

As I write this, the raw file for Chapter 5 is being exported, and Von Snootingham is in the midst of Chapter 4 - which bodes very well. Having finished Chapter 5, I can only assume that we've pretty neatly made it out of the exposition stage, whether that sounds pretentious or not - because if I have learned anything from watching Breaking Bad, it is that any time it feels like there's a lull at the end of a chapter in someone's story, it very likely means that a lot is about to start

I have a good reason. My wife is finally going to be moving in very soon, and I had to get my apartment ready for it. LOTS of cleaning and setting things up.

So, no chapter updates next week either, I'm afraid. But, I will try to get some writing in next week and finish a god damn chapter for once...

Well... see you when I see you, I supposes.

...that that that WELL WELL WELL WELL WELL that's over with, I can take a break from updates.

That well over there.

Hey folks!

Just want to give a quick update on how Pirene is going.
I'm going to re-record chapter 10 to fix up some major quality issues I discovered during editing. Chapters 22 through the epilogue will also be taken care of very soon.

Hasn't it? It's been over a year since I posted a story, and longer than that since I actually watched the show. There's a few reasons for it, but I imagine the prudent question is if I'm coming back or not.

Well, the prudent answer is it's not that simple.

“Hm...I need the character to develop more of a personality. I guess adding to there hobbies would help, though what should I give them without seeming out of place?”

...

“Maybe I could use some of my own hobbies? Let’s see...what do I like?

Drawing, Reading, Writing...”

...

“F**k.”

That's it. That's the whole post.
