I polished up that story I had you guys proofread, and it should be up by tomorrow. I haven't submitted it to EQD yet, so if anybody has any last minute tweaks for me to look at once it goes up, feel free to point them out.

The next Delicate Balance chapter is now over halfway done. Since it might be a couple more days before it gets posted, I'll give you a preview of the quote I'll be using:

So, if I now should utter this,
Others— because no more

Seriously, I was not expecting that much feedback. It's been quite helpful. I do plan on tweaking it a bit more and then publishing the story I mentioned last time, as response was positive. And yes, for those who are wondering I'm definitely following up on it so you actually see [REDACTED] in all his glory. If you proofread, you know what I'm talking about. If not, you'll probably figure it out pretty quickly when I post it. So no spoiling it! :p I may or may not request another round

Okay this is sort of random, but I figured I'd toss this out: in between writing A Delicate Balance chapters, I've been messing around with another goofy little side story and I was thinking of polishing it up a bit and publishing it. To that end, I thought I'd just throw this out there and ask if anybody wants to take a swing at proofreading it for me. And I'm just going to say ahead of time that it's largely a (non-shipping) fluff thing; I basically work on it in between to give

Okay, so chapter four might be done in a few days. I say might because there are two ways I might go. There are a few specific events I had planned to include in this chapter. As of now, it includes roughly 2 of them, and at ~5000 words, it's enough for a full chapter. So here are the two options I have:

1. A Delicate Balance has hit 600 faves. Holy Crap, it got over a hundred additional likes without any updates. This is awesome.

2. Chapter 3 is pretty much done. It took so long because it's about 3000 words longer than either of the first two. I'm planning to go through and do my tweaking tomorrow, so barring any disasters, it should be going up sometime this weekend.

Thank you for your patience.

Whoohoo 300 thumbs up!

Man, I did not think I'd hit the 500 mark after just two chapters. With over 250 thumbs up to boot! This is awesome!

Yeah, the meat of it is finished. I'm currently having anybody I can convince to read it look at it so I can finish iron out the kinks before I post it here. I've also submitted the story to EQD, so hopefully it'll be up there soon. If not, chapter 2 might be delayed a bit while I tweak chapter one some more. Hopefully that won't happen (I'd be surprised if it did, given that I got about 8 different people to give decent criticism), but who knows. But in all probability it'll be up within

I wasn't really planning to mess with the blog that much, but for some reason I actually ended up getting enough followers that I feel the need to actually put something here. I'm currently working on Chapter 2 of A Delicate Balance; it's just slow due to a combo of life conspiring against me, and my attempts to make sure it's up to snuff before uploading it rather than constantly tweaking it after I post it here. The first draft should be finished in a few days, and with the tweaking
