Hey everyone! I've had a nice little break, but it has officially wrapped up. Technically, it wrapped up a few days ago now, but today is the first day I've put new words into a chapter of Chromatic Aberration since my break started.
Hey everyone! Super quick blog this time around. I haven't much to say or show to all of you, but that doesn't mean I don't have anything.
I'm still trying to take a break from writing, but I find myself writing and working on more stuff regardless. In fact, just today, I put the finishing touches on the super detailed outline of act II I've been building. It's mapped, charted, and ready to be written!
Hey everyone! Don't have a lot to report this time unfortunately. Writing progress has been rather slow recently; getting sick (I'm better now btw) ended up putting me behind in a lot of different aspects of my life, and I've been trying my best to get all of that squared and sorted so I can get back to my normal schedule.
Part 1 of chapter 8 is fully complete! It has been edited, edited, edited, and edited again. This is how long it is:
This is close to where the first half of the next chapter of CA will sit as far as word count. It's incredibly dense – far more than I ever anticipated it being – and has gone through many revisions. There were a lot of problems I ran into while trying to write this half, and I'm still not 100% on what I've got either. That said, I've sent it off for the first round of editing from someone who isn't me, which means steady progress is being made.
Hey everyone! Apologies for the radio silence lately. I've been dealing with a few health issues (nothing dire, worry not), and I've been in somewhat of a funk for a little while. That said, I believe it's fading now, and with any luck, it should be over it relatively soon.
Much to my pleasant surprise, I felt a flash of inspiration this weekend and managed to write out the first working draft of the next chapter in Chromatic Aberration! This chapter has been through quite a number of rough drafts, but none have made it past the rough drafting phase until now. It still needs a bit of work, and after I do that work, it'll have to be sent off for proofreading and whatnot. That said, this is the furthest I've made it with anything I've written since my hiatus began.
Hey everyone!
So I'd be lying if I said I didn't see this coming. I wanted to think all I needed was a week or so off, but I've given it a lot of thought, and I think it's best I take a little hiatus. There are several reasons for this. The health issues I was having a week ago are not as solved as I previously thought and while they're still nothing too serious they still need to be dealt with, and that's putting a damper on my output.
Hey all! Not a whole lot to report this time, so this one will be pretty brief.
Chapter 3 is coming along nicely. It should be ready to be proofread by sometime tomorrow, and with any luck it'll be ready to go on Monday. So far, the story's been a little slow going, but things are going to start escalating very soon.
