On the one hand, I'm super happy that I've been able to keep writing so consistently for Witch and Monkey... Especially since it means I have pretty solid buffers on both stories...

On the other... Yeah... It's exhausting... I don't know how writers who post frequent updates do it without burning out or going absolutely stark-raving mad... ((Calm Wind, I'm looking at you right now... ))

So... In working on the sequels, Touch the Sky is turning out to be a much shorter story than Chase the Wind... I might start posting with TtS, and then post 3 chapters of CtW, and follow that pattern until I've posted 4 chapters for TtS, and 9 for CtW...

At least, that's my current thought... if TtS manages to eke its way into being a chapter longer, then it'll start again with TtS but only be 2 chapters of CtW between updates there...

By which, I mean that I'm out of buffer, and I don't have chapter 6 for CtW OR chapter 5 for TtS written... TtS is a full-on block right now, but I'm making SOME headway on CtW, so I'll likely break my pattern and update with chapter 6 next... Just as soon as I can coerce my muses into helping me...

I'll post again when it looks like I can resume regular updates...

So... The last few days, I've gotten a fair chunk written for both CtW and TtS... Syl helped extensively with TtS07, and Jim's been helping me a lot with CtW07. TtS07 is almost finished, I'm just missing the last scene. As for CtW07, it's probably around half-finished, but I've hit another block on it... This seems to be the trend when I'm able to get a lot done... Once I get a significant portion done, I run out of juice and can't even squeeze out another full sentence.

Argh...

SO! Chase the Wind (CtW) has been posted. Touch the Sky (TtS) will be going up some time later this week (expect it Thursday/Friday or so), provided I can stop fussing with the first chapter.

I was going to have anecdotal scenes with Tricks and the CMC posted in chapters of CtW, but I think I'm going to swap them over to TtS... CtW doesn't really have room in the outline for them, and it'll fit the theme/genres of TtS better anyways.
