I made some good progress on Chapter 26 of EM and also wrote a little on the epilogue. It won’t take much to finish up the former. I’ll probably go back to Chapter 23 after that. Stay tuned.

I made some progress on Chapters 23 and 26 of EM. I’ll probably finish the latter before the former because I know how it ends. The real tricky one will be Chapter 25, which I only have a fuzzy idea of where it’s going. It’s bound to pop up before the week’s out, so fun, fun, fun. Stay tuned.

Well, I managed to surprise myself by buckling down and finishing Chapter 24 of EM and then adding a few lines to Chapter 23 and the epilogue. If I can repeat progress like this week’s next cycle, I’ll be done with the book. It’s probably going to weigh in under 50K when it’s done, but I guess I don’t need to be obsessing about wordcount too much. Now it’s time to switch over to TTWC3. It’ll be launching soon and I’d like to have at least one more section done before then. Stay tuned.

I made a little more progress on Chapter 24 of EM. I’ll probably fall short of finishing it before I switch over, but this has been such a productive week that it won’t bother me too much. While I’ll probably start up CeleKing1 after I’m done with EM, I still need to decide what will take JJ’s place when I’m done there. It’s either going to be in the If Arc or the Earth Arc. Both of them could use some love. I’ll let you know when I have it figured out. Stay tuned.

I pretty well finished Chapter 22 of EM and made a little more progress on Chapter 24 as well. If you’re wondering why I’ve been dancing around Chapter 23, it’s because it’s going to be rather long and involved, so I’m waiting for the next cycle to tackle it.

I also worked out the immediate genealogy of the House de Ladrieu, the ruling family of Arielle at the time of the story. It happens to be relevant for Chapter 24, which I could possibly wrap before the weekend’s out. I do have a lot of homework to knock out, though, so don’t pin too many hopes on that. Stay tuned.

I’ve managed to continue a rather productive spell, finishing both Chapters 18 and 21 and getting most of the dialog down for Chapter 22. At this rate, I should be done within two cycles. It’s actually pretty exciting. Although I hadn’t originally planned for a sequel, some ideas have started to take shape. That goes for JJ as well. We’ll see if I decide to go into preproduction or not. I’m leaning toward yes, but I’ll probably hold off on any teasers until both stories wrap in October. Stay tuned.

I started out doing some work on Chapter 18 of EM, then started wandering around a bit in the story, finishing Chapter 21 and making some progress on Chapter 24 as well. I’ve still got a ways to go yet, but I’m closing in on the endgame. I’ll be turning my attention to Batista and Masako in CeleKing1 yet. If I can finish Chapter 18 and maybe Chapter 22 before it’s time to switch over, I’ll be pretty satisfied. Stay tuned.

I made some good progress on Chapter 18 of EM, enough to make up for not getting any writing done Monday. Finishing the chapter is entirely feasible before the week is out and I should be able to finish Chapter 21 as well at the very least. Stay tuned.

More progress on Chapter 18 of EM. More to go. Stay tuned.

I made more progress on Chapter 18 of EM. I think I’ve got a handle on the setup that I’d been hung up on. Should have it done before the weekend’s out. Stay tuned.
