As I was at with yet with very little actual work to do last week, I made significant progress on my writing. I finished Chapter 36 of JJ2, then went on to knock out Chapters 37 and 38 and started Chapter 39. Not a bad bit of work. Now I need to move on to EM2. Because I jumped ahead a bit, now would be a good time to fill in the gaps as I’ve got the week off. Of course, we all know what time off usually means for progress, so we’ll see. Stay tuned,

Chapter 35 of JJ2 ended up being longer than I thought, but I managed to get it done and started Chapter 36 before winding up my progress for the week. Now it’s time to switch over to EM2. Stay tuned.

So I went to work knocking out Chapter 34 of JJ2. I’m probably on a watchlist for my research into plane crashes, explosives and the women of the Mughal Empire, but these is the price you have to pay for the sake of your craft. I then returned to Chapter 35 and got so wrapped up in it that I forgot that it was Chapter 34 that was coming out this week and was feeling pressure for the deadline. How wonderful to actually be ahead of the game for a change. Eagle-eyed readers will notice that the story has been expanded by two chapters. I decided to split up the events of Chapter 35 to give each more time to breathe and stand on their own.

Most of Saturday was spent working on the schedule of the Peace Line. This sort of thing is even more fun when you’re working on a completely different time scale than Earth. (Recall that Miravel has 28-hour days and 460-day, 16-month years.) I started to go cross-eyed after a while and I’m not even halfway done with one of the four main circuits.

I’ll probably fiddle around with JJ2 a little bit more before switching over to EM2 in preparation for the next update. More to come. Stay tuned.

I guess I haven’t been posted here in a while. Well, let’s get everyone up to speed. I finished Chapter 33 of JJ2, then jumped ahead to Chapter 35 before going back to get Chapter 34 started. Also, because of a bit of inspiration, I jumped well ahead and did a bit of EM2’s epilogue.

Speaking of EM2, I finally got the story all plotted. Yes, I know that should be done before you start, but I’ve been doing a lot more on-the-fly writing these days. Feeling particularly rudderless on this one, I finally just sat down and powered my way through the story. And now that that’s done, I can drive on ahead. More to come. Stay tuned.

I went back to write up Chapter 32 of JJ2 (having figured out what to do with the space since my last entry), then went on to Chapter 10 of EM2. Then I put the finishing touches Chapter 14 of KniTwi before getting it posted. I’ll be going back to finish that chapter of EM2 and then go back KniTwi. Stay tuned.

I was moving right along with Chapter 14 of KniTwi, to the point where I thought I was pretty much done on Tuesday, with just a little stitching together to be done, so I moved on to Chapter 33 of JJ2 (not Chapter 32, which is next, because I hadn’t yet figured out what I wanted to put there). Then Saturday rolls around and it turns out I had more work to do on KniTwi than I thought. I didn’t use my time that effectively over the weekend, hence the current delay. Fear not. Lent is coming up soon and my usual distractions are going to get pared down significantly. Until then, bear with me. Stay tuned.

I managed the final push to finish Chapter 9 of EM2 and from there I spent a day reviewing JJ2, catching typos and such. From there, I started up Chapter 14 of KniTwi in preparation for next week’s update. I’ll be continuing that for the near future. Stay tuned.

I finished Chapter 13 of KniTwi and did a bit on Chapter 31 of JJ2. In my continuing adventures in rereading, I went back through Tellus. Always glad to catch any flubs I didn’t get on the first try. Anyway, from here I’ll be focusing on getting the next chapter of JJ2 out. Stay tuned.

I put the finishing touches on Chapter 30 of JJ2 and continued with Chapter 31. I’d like to finish the latter, but I should probably switch over to EM2. Stay tuned.

I managed to mostly finish Chapter 30 of JJ2, then on a whim, I started rereading Tzipi’s Garden and went through catching typos and such. I then gave CeleKing1 the same treatment. Didn’t get anything much done beyond that other than some review writing. I need to hop back on KniTwi. We’ll see what I get done. Stay tuned.
