It doesn’t count for much, I suppose, but I did some genealogical work for PMGtK. It’s more than nothing, but not quite story progress. Can I turn things around? Maybe. Let’s find out. Stay tuned.

I did some more writing on PMGtK. I’ve got these big confrontation scenes in my head, but once I put the story into production, I’ll have a lot of connective tissue to make. Anyway, I do need to focus on RttW, so I’ll try to switch gears to that. Stay tuned.

You may recall me talking about a random project that I started developing but hadn’t really decided where I was going to place it. Well, for the time being, I’ve decided to place it in the Else Arc and I’ve given it the tentative title The Poor Man’s Guide to Kingmaking. I was making some edits to what I’ve written and the peripheral materials behind it. I was considering some adjustments to place it in the Aurean Empire of Merkab from Tzipi’s Garden, but I’m not doing that for the time being. The Else Arc affords me considerably more flexibility and I’m thinking about integrating a number of other ideas I have lying around while I’m at it. Nothing is definitive just yet. It’s not the progress on RttW that needs to be happening (not that I don’t have considerable lead time there), but it’s enough to at least warrant a mention. We’ll see what follows. Stay tuned.

Because I accidentally overshot one of the reviews in the backlog, I ended up posting more than originally intended, so a bonus for the reader. I then restored a few of the older movie reviews. Perhaps if I was willing to sacrifice sleep, I would’ve gone ahead and finished the current page, but adult priorities and all that. I don’t know what things will settle down so that I can focus on making progress, but I’ll have to see what I can do when I can do it. Stay tuned.

I made a little more progress on Chapter 24 of EM3. Under quota again, but I’m thankful just to be making any progress after the recent dry spell. I’ll be switching over to RttW next. We’ll see what progress I can make amid everything else. Stay tuned.

I didn’t get a lot written, but I did start on Chapter 24 of EM3. You may remember me mentioning the burst of inspiration I had the other day. You see, I’ve had the general thrust of book’s finale in my mind from the beginning, but until recently, I didn’t have a clear vision for how I wanted to go about it, which meant that the standard chapter structure was just a placeholder until I got things more clearly plotted. However, once I was able to solidify my vision, that placeholder structure proved to be just the right size. In other words, including Chapter 24, we have three more main chapters to go and then the epilogue. This means that if I can stay on schedule, EM3 will wrap the first week of July. I need to start making preparations for whatever’s going to follow it. Things to keep me busy, I guess. I hope to get a little more written before switching over to RttW. Stay tuned.

I slipped in a bit of work on the site and managed to break into Page 4 of the TV reviews. As for the weekend, I’ll have to decide if I want to focus on getting viewing done for review purposes or moving the reconstruction work forward. We’ll see. Stay tuned.

I didn’t write a lot, but I did what needed to be done to get Chapter 23 of EM3 finished and ready for the update. I’ll try to get a bit more written over the weekend just so I can get a leg up on the next cycle. Stay tuned.

I made some progress on Chapter 23 of EM3, not quite making quota but almost finishing the chapter. Just a little bit to go, so I should be able to have it done before the deadline. That’s something. I also was struck by a bit of inspiration, so I believe I have a clear path to the end of the story. Just got to make it to that finish line… so I can start the process up all over again for another book. The fun’s never done. Stay tuned.

I made a little progress on Chapter 23 of EM3. It was well short of quota, but I haven’t been meeting quota ever since the journey of reconstruction began. I’ve got to get the chapter done, so I’ll have to pick up the pace. We’ll see what I can do. Stay tuned.
