I finished Chapter 15 of TG and I think that’ll do it for this week. I may still do some work in the peripheral materials, but for story progress, I’m going to switch over to Tellus and try to get through Chapter 4 at the very least before the end of the weekend. I plan on working on Tellus through the week anyway, so any more or less will flow into the overall progress. More to come. Stay tuned.

I finished Chapter 14 of TG and started in on Chapter 15. I may continue on to the end of Chapter 15 and then focus on Tellus over the weekend. I’d definitely feel better if I had as much lead time with Tellus as I do with TG. Going back to TG, as you’ve no doubt noticed, I was able to fill in the blanks in the outline, but I may yet add a few more chapters before it’s all said and done. Part of me wants a big final battle, but there’s also merit in showing how you don’t have to be the one with your boots on the ground to affect the course of major events. We’ll see how things flow as I go forward. Stay tuned.

I made more progress on Chapter 14 of TG. I may have shot myself in the foot a bit, taking an already unlikeable character and quite possibly pushing him past the point of redemption, but given that I don’t like him much and he’s getting in the way of my preferred ship, I may just let it stand. (I have an interesting “pair the spares” idea, but it’ll take some work to justify it.) We’ll see. Stay tuned.

I made a decent amount of progress on Chapter 14 of TG. Now if I can just fill in the blanks in the storyline, I can actually debut the story this week alongside Tellus. I’ve got two days to make that happen, so we’ll see. Stay tuned.

I pretty well finished Chapter 13 of TG and made some more progress on Chapter 3 of Tellus. Almost done on the latter. Just have to do some more research on equine behavior first. More to come. Stay tuned.

The update took more of my time than I was anticipating. I still made progress on Chapter 3 of Tellus. A bit short of meeting quota, though I think my overall progress for the week met the minimum objective as far as wordcount goes. However, what we really need are completed chapters and to that end I’m still short. I suppose I’ll go ahead and switch over to TG, but I think I’ll still be trying to get some writing done on Tellus as well, in addition to working on it every two weeks instead of every three. Stay tuned.

I underperformed on the writing front, only getting a paragraph or two of Chapter 3 of Tellus done because I decided to read through CeleKing2 just for the heck of it and busied myself indexing my review backlog (still have about a hundred more to go). Maybe I can focus a little more and make the progress I’ve been promising. We’ll see. Stay tuned.

More progress on Chapter 3 of Tellus. Almost there. Project for the weekend. Should be able to finish Chapter 4 as well at the very least. Stay tuned.

More progress on Chapter 3 of Tellus. I’m almost done, but it’s going to take a bit longer as I realize Tobias’ Chronic Hero Syndrome isn’t going to allow him to exit as quickly as I’d originally planned. More to come. Stay tuned.
