That's right people, after far too long, I have finally updated ODaM. So go! Read! And enjooooy! Muahaha!

In other story-related news, I'm making some progress on the next chapter already. No idea how long it's going to take, but I can only hope that it'll be up faster than this update was.

Hello people, this is Rakni with a writer update for Of Dragons and Mortals.

Hope you people didn't think I was dead or anything! Though I'd forgive you for thinking that, given the lack of updates and stuff.

My excuse? Family drama, personal stuff, a brief stint in the hospital, just... lots of stuff at once. It's been a busy and emotional couple of months.

Rakni here with a writer update on Of Dragons and Mortals.

Wow, I've been quiet for a while, haven't I? Problem is, I have had a lot of RL stuff to deal with, and I've struggled with motivation to write and all sorts of things. I haven't said anything because there isn't much to say.

Until now.

So why am I suddenly doing a blog post? What's changed? And will I just shut up and tell you what you want to hear?

Against all odds, me and my editors managed to get the new chapter out. My IRL troubles haven't gone away or sorted themselves out yet, but sometimes you just want to write. I have a small announcement to make here, but if you'd prefer to get to reading, the information will be provided for you in the author's notes. It's nothing scary.

Unfortunately the news are not so good: I'm struggling with some pretty big RL issues at the moment and I can't find much time to write. Combine that with a case of writer's block, and I don't know when the next update is coming.

I am not about to stop writing, though. I have a lot of the next chapter (or, well, the first draft) written down and, if we're lucky, I'll find time to finish it sometime soon and send it out to my editors.

Surprise! Chapter 11 of ODaM is officially released. It's a juicy 10000 word chapter, too! It snowballed on me :/

Aaand none of you are reading this part, are you? Anyway, I have a small bit of news in the Author's notes. Nothing critical.

Enjoy the chapter!

Best.

It's been almost two weeks since I last touched base, so here goes: Writing progress on the next chapter is going smoothly and I am making steady progress every day. Things are happening...

By the by, I know a few authors put out small snippets of upcoming chapters in blog posts. Teasers and the like. Is that something you readers would like to see, or would you prefer to remain unspoilered until the chapter is properly finished?

So, my little story just did a short stint in the featured box, and gathered a total of over a thousand favorites.

Also, I just breached a hundred followers. I feel I should do something...

I mean, besides curl up into a ball and panic. I'm currently fighting the urge.

Okay, so I have good news and bad news.

The bad news is that, as part of my education, I need to spend the next several weeks getting on-the-job experience. As luck of the draw would have it, I have to travel a looong way to get to my allotted place. Which means that, in between traveling and actually working, my weekdays more or less disappear, and I'll probably only be able to write on weekends for some time.
