WIP Update – 19 Dec 16
I managed to make quota working on Chapter 13 of CeleKing1. I’ve written myself into a bit of a corner, but I’ll figure a way out of it. Stay tuned.

I made some decent progress in Chapter 13 of CeleKing1. Not enough to make up for the days I didn’t accomplish anything, but I did spend a fair bit of time writing reviews and working in the peripheral materials. Now it’s time to get back to TSoA1. I’ve got a long way to go if I want to debut it within the next couple months. Stay tuned.
I managed to wrap up Chapter 11 of CeleKing1 and got started on Chapter 13. Finishing the latter before it’s time to switch may or may not happen. We’ll just have to see how long it turns out to be. Stay tuned.
Once again, I had a day when I made negligible progress, then followed it with a day in which I accomplished nothing at all (save the update). I managed to turn it around and at least make quota on Chapter 11 of CeleKing1. I would’ve gone farther if I hadn’t passed out at my desk while writing. Finishing Chapter 11 and at least making some headway into Chapter 13 remain entirely feasible. Now I just have to make it happen. Stay tuned.
I managed to finish Chapter 12 of CeleKing1 and made some headway on Chapter 11 as well. Should be able to finish Chapter 11 with one more round. Chapter 13 has a big fight sequence, so that’ll be fun. Stay tuned.
Most of the writing I accomplished was redoing my work on Chapter 12 of CeleKing1 from Sunday because I lost what I had written when my laptop crashed. (I usually save reflexively every ten or fifteen minutes I’m working, but I suppose said reflexes are rather dulled around 0500.) I should finish said chapter after another day’s work, then I can go back and finish Chapter 11 and go on from there. I’ve certainly got enough of a head start for the series’ launch next week, but I need to stay on top of things and make sure I’m at least getting one chapter done per cycle, preferably two. If I can get through Chapter 13 by the end of business Sunday, I’ll be satisfied. Stay tuned.
The main accomplishment was getting the TBP manuscript all rearranged to match the new outline, but I also wrote some reviews and made progress on Chapter 12 of CeleKing1, about enough for a day’s quota, obviously not enough for the week. As such, I’m going to extend my work on CeleKing1 into this week and then switch over to TSoA1. Speaking of TSoA1, I’m not going to start serializing it until I have at least ten chapters written, so while CeleKing1 will start its serial run next week, TSoA1 will have to wait a month or two (or three). I don’t imagine it’ll hurt anyone’s feeling too much. So, that’s the plan for the immediate future. Now, if you’ll excuse me while I grumble about my lack of a (functioning) Japanese cell phone preventing me from upgrading my limited edition SR Shiburin… Hopefully we’ll have more genuine progress to report this week. Stay tuned.
If it weren’t for the regular updates to the site, you might be forgiven for thinking I fell off the face of the Earth. It is the week of Thanksgiving after all. (Okay, I’ll admit, they’ve got two scenario events in GBF and they’ve brought back the Kyle hero quest in S&D, so that might bear some of the blame for my current lack of progress.) I didn’t figure the single sentence I wrote in Chapter 11 of CeleKing1 on Monday was worth mentioning. And while I haven’t made any story progress per se, I have made some serious headway sorting out the timeline for TBP.
While the scale of my maps isn’t necessarily precise, I decided to actually attempt to crunch the numbers for a more accurate calculation of travel times. (I’ve done some calculations for the KoG and TTWC series, but never applying quite so much math.) In so doing, it completely threw the original timeline into chaos. However, after a lot of work, I finally managed to get things lined up. This is going to cause some reshuffling of the chapters, which is going to make my earlier WIP posts make less sense looking back. (For instance, at the moment, the new Chapters 3, 4 and 5 were formerly 4, 5, and 3.) I had about a 20-day offset I was able to resolve by giving Cassandra’s group an additional side trip leading up to the final confrontation, so that’s something.
Given how much of the week has passed with no appreciable progress on CeleKing1, I’ll likely spend next week on it as well, but we’ll see. Stay tuned.
Well, all the fun and excitement of post-termination relocation cut into my writing time, but once the dust settled, I was able to get some writing done on Chapters 11 and 12 of CeleKing1. I suppose it’s time to switch back over to TSoA1. We’ll see how far I can get. I’d like to at least have ten chapters knocked out before I begin its serial run. Stay tuned.
I mostly finished Chapter 10 of CeleKing1. Now that it seems I have a little more time on my hands, maybe I can devote some of that to getting even more writing done. (Knowing me, unlikely.) We’ll see how much farther I can get before it’s time to switch over. Stay tuned.
