Title says it all... the last chapter of CtW is up, as is another installment of The Troll Squad!
And Penumbra Glow drew this for me a while ago, but I've just not gotten around to posting about it...

And Penumbra Glow drew this for me a while ago, but I've just not gotten around to posting about it...
Chase the Wind's final chapter is finished and ready for posting. It'll go up Tuesday, and gods willing, the last chapter of Touch the Sky will follow a week later.
What's this?! Only a two month lag between chapters?!
Yes! I assure you, dear readers, that you are not hallucinating, and CtW07 will be going up just as soon as I hit publish on this blog.
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...
I finally finished chapter 6 of CtW?!
I'm not posting it until I've gotten my lovely Troll Squad to give it a once over and make sure I've not screwed up anywhere... but it's finally finished!!!
And TtS might have a new chapter soon too?! WHAT?!
Much love to Jim Hoxworth, Sylvian and Destiny-brave-fire for helping me get out of my rut on CtW06.
You're so close to finishing a chapter, but can't quite do it, so you're forced to set it aside lest you hurt yourself...
Yeah... That's me right now... Ugh...
So... I think I've finally broken through my stop on Chase the Wind... And I can't thank Sylvian enough for his invaluable assistance in this! Oddly enough, it only took a 15-minute brainstorm session Thursday night before both of us passed out to finally get me moving again...
So with this chapter, I'm officially out of my buffer... However, I do have the Streak Siblings story ready to post next week, so that gives me a little more grace to finish up chapter 5 of TtS... However, if I don't update on time in two weeks, please don't be surprised or angry at me... My muses have been crazy busy tormenting with adorable shenanigans further down the road involving Witch's ship (no... You don't get to find out until it happens, and Syl, don't tell!) and helping Sylvian with
So Chapter 4 of Chase the Wind is up, and you might notice a new story on my user page...
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... ))
Title of the post says it all!
In other news, having a buffer of chapters queued up to post is a novel experience for me... I'm not sure I like it, since I want to post everything as I finish it... But at least this way you can always expect a new chapter on Thursdays (which is apparently the arbitrarily chosen day of the week I'm posting)...
Here's hoping I can keep this up!
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.
