    New Midnight Rising chapter off to prereaders...

    At long last. This is the redo of the chapter I was forced to scrap in April and then about 80% rewrite. I saved a few select bits and pieces from the original version, but the rest went by the wayside.

    Still pecking away on Midnight Rising and Feathered Hearts...

    The two Lemon Zest chapters of Midnight Rising have now reached 26,600 words and they’re still nowhere near done, with probably another 5-6k words to go. Gotta treat the girl right, after all, and also make sure there’s plenty of sexy side dishes around her. And as for Feathered Hearts?

    Still working on Midnight Rising...

    At the rate of about 800-1000 words a day. That’s my key to getting stuff done that’s causing you issues; just be sure you put at least a little time in on it this day to have some forward momentum. The two chapters are now up to 24,100 words. I’ll work on it more this weekend, at least around continuing work around the maps and battle graphics I’m making for Feathered Hearts.

    Did two things this past weekend...

    First, I ran 10k for the first time in two months after laying off that long to let my ankle bursitis subside, trying to allow the area to generally heal up. It appears that it worked. To my delight, there was no ankle pain after and I hadn’t even lost much stamina thanks to hitting an elliptical machine twice a week for an hour instead of jogging. My upper legs are another matter, though.

    C&C chapter 40 entering prereads tonight + teaser

    Much as I didn’t want to, I made the decision to break it up since the full length of the War Council meeting had exceeded 20,000 words and will probably approach 25k for the now-two chapters before all is said and done. The breakpoint itself will be between learning about the general war situation both Aricia and the Griffon Kingdom face, and then discussing what in all the Crows they’re going

Work on Firefly continues · 2:49pm May 4th, 2020

I had planned to shift over to Nightmare Night after this latest chapter, but I find myself with momentum on the story again after a successful release--I really enjoyed the comments this time, folks; they told me I hit the mark I was aiming for on this chapter quite well--and a scene I very much want to get to.

If I pull it off, it will be another epic moment and serve as a powerful point of character development for two major figures, doubly so for the perspective it will be told through. I'll also serve to pull readers--and myself--out of the sadness the last chapter created. My stories are always balanced; there will be moments of sadness and defeat but also plenty of happiness and triumph. Though perhaps rebirth might be a better word for what's planned.

Guest chapters are also underway and in varying stages of completion by AJ_Aficionado and Denim_Blue. AJA is doing another Highborne scene while DB is handling the Changeling side of things. AJA's contribution will appear in conjunction with a Nightborne counterpoint scene involving Captain Typhoon's visit and appeal to the Lunar Council. DB's might well appear as a standalone chapter depending on length.

As always, more information will follow as we get closer, though I may refrain from teasers this time involving the epic scene to come. Better to have readers come in cold to this one, I think.
