I’ve finished going over Daphne’s Chapter 2, having done a fair bit of expansion to it. Yes, I know my attention should be directed at Cronos’ scenario, but I wanted to finish what I started.

It’s a bit funny, really. I originally found the Ticonderoga series very difficult to plot and it entered production comparatively late despite being one of the first stories in the canon to enter pre-production.  Now I find myself having a hard time going back to doing Tellus Arc stuff. Perhaps I shouldn’t have multiple project in active serialization at a time. (Note how Everyday Magic and “The Case of the Striped Leopard” are languishing after the debut chapters I posted.) Well, part of the job is powering through the rough bits. I think it’d really help if I was more in love with the Trident War Chronicles and didn’t see them more as a stepping stone to other stories I’m more attached to. After all, if I’m not all that attached to a story, how can I expect readers to latch on to it? Perhaps I’ll follow up with a commentary piece on the experimental nature of the TTWC series and why it’s been such a pain for me. Until then.
