WIP Update – 26 Jan 16

I managed to make up for missing a day by writing a little on Chapter 18 of EM, going ahead and finishing Chapter 19 and making some tweaks to the already finished Chapter 20. I decided to jump ahead because I’m having a little difficulty with the setup for Chapter 18. Even the progress I made bypasses the part that has me stuck. I’ll figure it out, though.

Given that today is the site’s anniversary, I thought I’d take a moment to look back at what all happened in the past year. I finished TTWC1 and Tico4, started up TTWC2 with the inauguration of Tellus Tuesday (close to a concept I’d wanted to institute since the site’s inception) and also resumed EM and started JJ. I debuted the reviews section (which now has over 200 reviews in the movie section alone), added teasers for three stories in the Cross Arc, and launched the Else Arc. All told, that’s not a bad bit of work.

I’ve already got ideas for five or so stories that may be greenlit for preproduction in the the near future in addition to all the stuff I promised in the anniversary post. I’d say there’s more than enough to look forward to. Stay tuned.

WIP Update – 17 Jan 16

After two days with no appreciable progress, I managed to pretty well wrap up Chapter 17 of EM and do a little writing on Chapters 18 and 19. It helped put into focus the fact that I may well be done within the next three or four cycles. That’s certainly something to look forward to. I suppose I’ll be switching over to TTWC3 for time being. Hopefully I can get farther than I did last month when I fell off the wagon. Stay tuned.

WIP Update – 14 Jan 16

I did a little better this time around with my progress on Chapter 17 of EM. If it didn’t meet par, it came close enough to it. It shouldn’t be too hard to wrap the chapter up with another day’s work. Stay tuned.

WIP Update – 12 Jan 16

I made a little progress on Chapter 17 of EM. Well under par, but seeing as how I just got my copy of Gen’ei Ibunroku #FE and school’s starting up again next week, it shouldn’t be that much of a surprise. The game’s pretty good, in case you’re curious. I don’t have any experience with the Shin Megami Tensei franchise, so I don’t have a precise handle on how much of the game is directly influenced by it, but even as a person with little interest in music or idol singers, I’m having a good time. I’ll try to get a little more writing done in the future, though. Stay tuned.

WIP Update – 12-13 Dec 15

I made some progress on Chapter 17 of EM. Now it’s time to switch over to TTWC3. We’ll see how far I can get into Garm’s section before the week’s out. Stay tuned.

WIP Update – 11 Dec 15

I managed to wrap Chapter 16 of EM. Been a lot going on, so I haven’t gotten as much writing done as I’d like. (Also, I just marathoned my way through Nanatsu no Taizai.) Ironically, now that I’m done for the semester, I may actually wind up getting less work done over the break instead of more, but we’ll see. Stay tuned.

WIP Update – 09 Dec 15

I made some more progress on Chapter 16 of EM, pretty well wrapping up the dialog for the chapter. I just need to fill in the narrative and I can move on. I could’ve gone farther, but I got wrapped up in the peripheral materials. I can’t believe I hadn’t started an encyclopedia and timeline for the series. Stay tuned.

WIP Update – 07-08 Dec 15

I managed to wrap up Chapter 15 of EM and make some progress into Chapter 16. It’s possible that I could get as far as Chapter 18 before the weekend’s out, but we’ll see. Stay tuned.

WIP Update – 22 Nov 15

While not quite finishing Chapter 14 of EM, I did at least manage to make quota. Now it’s time to switch over to TTWC3. Perhaps this will be the time for me to do more than just inch along with the story. Stay tuned.

WIP Update – 21 Nov 15

Another day of minor progress on Chapter 14 of EM. That goal of getting through Chapter 15 before the weekend’s out seems rather remote, but I managed to get all my homework knocked out, so that means there’s more time to focus on writing. We’ll see what I can get accomplished. Stay tuned.
