WIP Update – 27 May 24

After a whole week of not even touching any story content, it felt really nice to actually sit down and meet my daily quota for a change working on Chapter 21 of TWH. Maybe I can get into the habit of taking a nap in the evening, then doing my writing and going to bed. I know I’d managed something along those lines last year. Now if I can just make a habit of it. We’ll see what I can get done. Stay tuned.

It’s not much, but I put the finishing touches on Chapter 20 of TWH, so it should be ready to go for Saturday. I would’ve liked to get more written, as always, but I didn’t have a whole lot of time to spare. Lots of stuff on my plate at work, so that’s one thing keeping me hopping at the moment. Maybe I can turn things around a bit over the long weekend. Stay tuned.

I kept working on Chapter 20 of TWH and have it mostly finished. I may continue on TWH for a while longer to get a leg up on the next cycle. We’ll see how it goes. Stay tuned.

WIP Update – 27 Apr 24

While I was able to make respectable progress on Chapter 20 of TWH, I wasn’t able to get it finished, so at this point it looks like delaying the update until next week will be the most prudent course. By this point, readers will be used to such delays. I’m behind on my viewing for review purposes as well, so I’ll have to think about what I’m going to do there as well. For now, I’m going to focus on getting the chapter finished and go from there. Stay tuned.

WIP Update – 25-26 Apr 24

I’m continuing to move along in Chapter 20 of TWH. I was hoping to have the chapter finished by this point, but the mascot insisted on sending me to bed before I could finish. Because I have a three-day weekend, I may just push the release schedule back by a day. We’ll see how things go. Stay tuned.

WIP Update – 23-24 Apr 24

I’ve made a little progress on Chapter 20 of TWH, but I need to pick up the pace if I want to make it to the finish line in time. Stay tuned.

WIP Update – 07 Apr 24

Having to work a fair chunk of Saturday, it felt like I didn’t have any time at all, but after doing the update, I had the burning desire to have at least have accomplished something, so I did some writing on Chapter 20 of TWH. From here, I need to switch gears over to EM3 so I can have next weekend’s update ready (but before that, I still have a review post to make). With work-work, the new season’s viewing, the previous seasons’ backlog, reconstruction efforts on the site, story progress and more, time management is going to be critical in the foreseeable future. No promise on how well I’ll strike the balance. We’ll see what I can do. Stay tuned.

WIP Update – 04 Apr 24

I finally got around to doing some story writing and got Chapter 19 of TWH pretty well done and ready to go for the weekend update. I’m sure I’ve mentioned it in an earlier post, but I’ve got the remaining chapters plotted out and it’s just a matter of getting them written. I’ll see what I can do on that front. Stay tuned.

WIP Update – 07 Mar 24

You didn’t expect to see one of these, did you? I wouldn’t have either, but as I’ve mentioned elsewhere, I’ve had a burst of inspiration recently while proctoring finals and I’ve figured out my plan for the next four chapters of TWH. As all my proctoring and grading are done and I was left with two more days in the workweek, I considered bringing my laptop to the office so I could continue my work on the site. However, due to the time required for the file transfers for updating Drupal, I opted to leave my laptop behind to finish that while I was off at work. (You’ll hear more about that in my next Road to Reconstruction post.) So, instead of reconstructing pages on the site, I used my time to write on Chapter 19 of TWH. A different sort of productive use of my time, but a welcome one. It may be a little too optimistic, but if there are no other major disturbances in the near future, I might even be ready for a story update by next weekend. That’d be nice, wouldn’t it? Well, let’s see what I can do. Stay tuned.

WIP Update – 01 Mar 24

I did a little proofing on Tico1. Not much because there was something about a graduation ceremony that folks were making a big deal about. I would later go on to implement the edits to JJ2 and TWH. I’ll work on the Space Arc stuff I’ve done tomorrow. Not exactly thrilling content, I know, but maybe I’ll do a little actual writing as well. Stay tuned.
