    Not dead

    Selling a condo. Buying a house. Struggling with some personal things and some health things. Working on the next chapter.

    Definitely feeling the pressure because this next bit is maybe the most important and difficult part of the whole story?


    Tldr: I'm not dead or AWOL I'm just experiencing some Real Life and also some Difficult Chapter

    Chapter 12 update

    Got a good first draft going, targeting end of May? Earlier if I can swing it. Would love to get it out on my b-day next week but that might be pushing it.


    Just wanted to keep you in the loop. You guys are the best and I don't want you to worry that I'm running off again or anything.

    Let me tell you a story (5/?)

    Chapter 11 is through the first draft and into revisions. It may end up being on the short side but if it is, 12 will be big to compensate

    And the great news is a bunch of scenes got moved to 12 so basically I have a small headstart on 12 already. Yey.

    Let me tell you a story (4/?)

    Ok, one of you said you wanted the long version.

    This is...

    Well, this is the extended short version

    Finished undergrad (on the third try), actually published chapter 10 within a couple days of graduation

    Had writer's block

    Got VERY ANGRY at myself for having writer's block

    Felt ULTRA ASHAMED for slipping my own internal goals for when 11 would go up

Let me tell you a story (2/?) · 3:56am Apr 19th, 2018

11 status: 1100 words in first draft.
4 scenes written, 5 left to write.
Then proofreading and punch-up
(my first drafts tend to be very bare-bones, almost like scripts or screenplays, mainly dialogue interspersed with terse descriptions of the actions between the lines. I usually have to go back and add details in a second run-through)

Didn't really have as much to say tonight. If these blog posts start to get annoying, I'm sorry. I feel like posting progress reports is a way to hold myself accountable and stay on some semblance of a schedule
