You know, my favorite part of writing especially for stories such as Lazarus, is the back story. Writing back story is freaking great, especially when you can do it in ways when it isn't info dumping. Which was why I really liked the way I wrote the beginning of chapter one, instead of going like "Archangel a being of pure power killed humanity by fucking with physics and creating a zombish like virus." I broke it up into military radio chatter and news reports.
Diplomatic Defense is the ultimate winner.
I haven't had time to actually count the amount of votes and read all the descriptions, (which some were really great and interesting and I have taken some into account) but eighty percent of the comments were ^^ clearly as stated.
For those of you who had seen my last blog post and decided to participate, I thank you for your assistance.
Counting up the results this is what I got out of it.
Out manned/gunned: 17
Out manned/teched/gunned: 11
Out manned and gunned it is!
(The questions below if you don't feel like explaining just choose between, Diplomacy, Defensive, or Offensive. That's if you care.)
Now that your enemy out numbers you, and has such higher fire power, what is your strategy?
Would you rather be:
Out gunned
Out Manned
Out Teched
Or be a man and take on all three.
I am sad, my fellow readers.
Why are you sad, Joe?
Thanks for asking, other Joe.
You're welcome.
All my stories, Lazarus, Butler, WAI?, will all have to be put on hold. Why? Because Gdocs will being a complete asshole, for some odd reason it will not allow me to click on anything. I can still type, but I cannot open the share option, change my font, size, nor indent, it won't even let me check the solutions because of a spelling error. After using the inspect element tool on my computer, I saw that my computer was telling me that those were objects I couldn't click. Even though clearly
But not posted! Matter of fact I've just sent it to most of my pre-readers and one editor, (sorry Isaac I'll get to you in a bit when I transfer it over to word so that I can send it to ya.) and it's different! This chapter wasn't originally in the first version and I'm glad I wrote it because now it adds onto more back story following Star–(Spoiler whoops!)
So the grammar Nazis are officially storming this story, and jeez did they pack a punch into the poor punctuations lines. (Except for this blog post. This here is the only place I cun right tribly an gat ehway wit it) Yeah, and I can't even begin to explain to them how much this means to me. Not only does it help make the story seem nicer and easier to read. A few of them even question a few points I never thought about, which in the end is good because if they stick with me till the end. This
I can't leave it be... I must... I just... I just have to do it! For three days made my way through Lazarus: The Rise of Man previous chapters... and ahhh! How can you people read this shit! So many spelling errors, the characters now that I actually look at it are bland and boring (Save for the German Doctor he is cool... but that's because I made him that way) well... not entirely bland but Jesus they're boring... so I have to do it!
Well first off time to get the Lazarus notice out of the way. I've finally started and finished most of the first half of the chapter remake. Not much has changed save for a few dialogue change ups and I'm also digging just a teensy bit more in depth of Celestia and the humans discussion. *Cough*Discords*Cough*Gone*Cough*
*Gagging fit*
Lately I've been having really bad motivation problems when it comes to terms with writing. I'm able to do everything else, but write.
One moment I'll be like, "I feel like writing!"
*Sits down flings open laptop.*
*Not even five seconds after loading up the doc.* "You know... I don't feel like writing anymore."
I don't know why this is happening, literally it started right after I released the Butler Chapter and deleted that last two shitty Lazarus chapters...
Ladies and Gentlemen. I've come here to (if you haven't read my blogs) apologize not only for my inappropriate reactions to all of you those weeks earlier. But also for writing two chapters THAT I HAVE JUST BANISHED TO THE DEEPEST NINTH CIRCLE OF HELL YEEEEAAH!
After sitting in my bed last night gazing up at my ceiling thinking of ways to fix this inevitable path I began to walk– wait a second inevitable... does that even–
I'm taking my sweet ol'time but it's nearly done. Just got done writing quick funny/combat scene with the Mec (Spelt that way for Mechanized Exoskeleton Cyber-Suit totally not ripped from X-Com) first time ever writing a full legit fight scene at least one I'm taking slightly serious because of the small amount of comedy added into it. Now you're probably not wondering how do you have comedy in a fight scene? Especially in a story that's been trying so hard to take it self seriously with the
The chapter is a quarter of the way done. I changed up my writing style a bit, and seeing that I am adding a lot more detail. I am no longer going to be doing chapters every week or every other. Instead I'm going to be doing it on my own time, reason why is so that I can kick out good chapters, and not that one that shall not be named... which I will rewrite at some point.
So no the story is not dead, and the next chapter should come out at some point.
Please read!
I apologize, for my actions and I must say that, Celestia and Luna have no idea what's going on. Which is reasonable on why they would throw the humans out, if you were a world leader sitting in your chair listening to an alien race (That appeared out of nowhere on three ships) you don't know why they're here, nor how they react. And next thing you know one of your subordinates walk in, and these aliens start flipping shit. They almost accidentally shoot you, they try to arrest your own
Yes it's finally out and it's the 2nd longest chapter. So go, go read it and tell me what you think of it!
The new Lazarus chapter is not going to be as short as I originally intended it to be, matter of fact! I actually cut out a whole boring scene and replaced it with a slightly boring scene but then quickly becomes exciting... I hope at least. The chapter is going to be over four thousand words long and covers almost everything you've guys been expecting!
Yes I'm almost done with this chapter, and after I send it to Isaac for editing. I'll be able to post. Now I won't hold back and tell you guys, yes it's short.
Now before you rip my head off I'll tell you why.
It's.
All.
Plot.
Literally there is no filler or anything, it's a whole chapter with just plot. It answers about two questions, but raises a lot more. Now you're probably wondering, "Why is he posting a new chapter so soon?" (That's if Isaac finishes editing that is)
