... COMPLETELY hung over from drinking way too much, think right around that point where you AREN'T barfing up a storm but still going to regret life tomorrow, and I open my computer, and find a partially written one-shot story. The grammar is awful, the spelling is laughable, and at one point, I completely went off onto a tangent about how politics suck, but other than that, I think my drunken self began an alright story.

So recently, I've been editing a story for a friend of mine that is one this site, and I realized something...

Being an editor, at least for me, is nerve wracking.

A few weeks ago, I mentioned that the outline was completely finished for World of Chaos, and that it would be merely minor changes to it that would occur.

Well, I out of curiosity, I did a quick word count, and realized that if the outline itself, which is mostly just a few words to describe a section or two, is a monster long thing. In fact, if the sucker was a chapter in my story, it would be well over 18k words long!

Alright, so I'm trying my best to distract myself from real writing and such, so here's a few random things.

1) Next World of Chaos chapter is actually done, and close to being done with edits. However, it's a god damn book (over 13k words I last clocked it at), so even if I post it soon, don't expect another update soon after. I like to think that after this chapter, there will be three or four more chapters before we hit the end game hardcore stuff, so stay tuned.

So my editor for World of Chaos is a little backed up with a few chapters that I sent him. I don't remember his exact words, but I think they were along the lines of "If you send me another chapter, I'm going to drop kick you in the face."

With that update on his end, I'm finding myself not entirely willing to write THAT far ahead in the story. As such, I'm actually FINALLY typing my new story: "Luna's Dreamscape Journey." Other than that, I'm not saying anything else.

Enjoy your day all!

... your laptop needs to take a nice little swim in a spilled glass of milk.

That's code for idk how long it's going to be until I post the next chapter. It depends on when I can steal another computer for it. Fortunately, the hard drive is good, and I have the story backed up anyways.

... You look back at a previous chapter of a story to make sure you stay within canon in respect to descriptions, building layouts, and room decor; and see that the chapter that both myself and my editor thought was up to my high standards now wouldn't pass as garbage. I would normally say the chapter name, but I am afraid of giving up spoilers, but lets say that in five sentences, not only did I find about half a dozen grammar errors, but EVEN MYSELF, THE GOD DAMN AUTHOR, got lost for a moment

So I've been ignoring this site, and writing in general, for about two weeks. And all I have to say is goodness, tracked chapters tend to pile up when you do that sort of thing...

*Walks into editor's room*

"Hey, I just got finished with the latest chapter of WoC. Can you edit it by... oh... tonight?"

*Editor looks at me, then at massive piles of homework he has to do, then back at me*

"No"
