The return to writing · 12:42am Apr 11th, 2016
I'm just 2 weeks away from graduating my BA and then I'll have the summer off before I start my Master's. Already set myself some good old writing goals for the next 4 months!

I feel like doing this little blog because probably no one has actually noticed the subtext I've placed into The Path of Lore and Kings. So, I want to reveal one little thing I did in it that either none cared about, or none noticed.
Loré never hated Twilight, at all. All her hate was for herself.
My friend drew this cool picture of Loré and Namworth. So, I thought I'd share it with you guys :3
I have no clue why he made Loré read 50 shades XD But I love how disinterested she is in cuddles while it's all Namworth wants X3 mmm role reversals.
That's right, all the chapters have been fully written! :O it's currently on my editor's desk, but I want to post the last two chapters nooooow and then add the small fixes later when he actually gets to it :P
Either way, I am quietly celebrating by myself that I've written my very first novel ^_^
Chapter 12 will be out later today. Chapter 13 is fully written and is on my editors desk, and he should get on that fairly soon. So, expect 13 to be out soon :P
I'm currently putting together what I want to be in chapter 14, and now that I think about it. I only have about 3 more chapters to write before my story is all finished. Feels weird to almost be done with this. But yeah, I think I should be finished writing The Path of Lore and Kings within 2 weeks time from now :O
I find it so strange and hard to believe that my story is in the featured box right now XD I really don't understand how or why it's there, but I'm so happy that it made it there :3 I guess I must have done something right lol XD And apparently I'm gone from the feature after 30 minutes lol XD
I made it to Denmark and all is good. I have a lot of thins to do, and been busy so far today, but I still make some time to edit my giant 11k+ words chapter for The Path of Lore and Kings. I've decided to break it into two chapters instead of keeping it one, as my flow is around 4k chapter lengths right now XD Not done editing chapter 11, but chapter 10 will be looked over by my editor some time soon and then it will come out and not too long after chapter 11 will be out :3 oh, and chapter 2
As I've been writing this story, I've constantly gotten new ideas and better understanding of my characters. This has also led me to feel my current first chapter sucks in giving the right feeling of Loré's complexity. So, I've been working on chapter 0 so to speak. It's about 3.2k words long, and in addition to it, I've reworked chapter 1 to fit better with everything else. If I can make it all flow and sound better, I should put them both out soon. Chapter 8 will be out on next Saturday. That
Is what I'm working on right now :3 I should have it fully written by saturday, and then I'll see when my editor has time to edit it. He's going through exams right now, just like I am XD Sorry for it having taken so long to get back to this, but life's been busy and my mood to write has been low. Getting warmed up on writing once more, and hopefully I can write half decently for the rest of the novel ^^;; I'll try to finish a chapter once a week after this one, and will be done with this story
Two things I'm celebrating while writing chapter 6, (Besides it's pretty much fleshed out and just need editing from me and then my editor :P ) first being my story is now over 20k words, which means I'm a bit over halfway towards the minimum word count for a novel (which is 40k) woohooo!
Second celebration is that my original estimate for my stories length is 50-60k words, so I'm about 1/3 of the way through with it by next chapter.
H'okay, I've added some drawings to chapter 1 and 2. If anyone care to take a look and give some feedback as to whether or not it adds to the story, doesn't do anything or takes away from it would be nice. It's my friend who made them. He really likes my story and wants to work on my little project with the whole art thing for each chapter. I just want to make sure it works with the story, hence why I want opinions :)
These last two weeks have been a bit hectic and I've been very lazy XD
Also there is the fact that I'm starting at UF tomorrow, so that has swallowed up a lot of my time :S
Anyway, I guess I just want to say that I'm still working on my story for those who care about it. I just need to edit this chapter and then it'll be good to go, woohoo!
