WIP Update – 03 Jul 15

Did some more writing on Tzipi’s Garden and a fair bit of work in the peripheral materials to flesh it out. When I was working on the timeline, I had to go back and fix it because I messed up the formula calculating the years. You see, a year on Merkab is the equivalent of 248 Earth days, so I’ve got to calculate the comparison with Earth time to account for its relation to the larger timeline. I also have to scale the ages of characters accordingly. For instance, if you’re 30 on Merkab, you’re roughly 20 on Earth, so most nations have 30 be the age of majority as the realities of physical and mental development don’t change because of whatever number you stick on a person (not that they have Earth as a frame of reference on Merkab, at least not most people). Anyway, this is the sort of thing I’ve been grappling with. Not terribly interesting to the average reader, I’m sure. Well, the work must continue. Stay tuned.
