Ch. 18 in the bag

Finished Ch. 18 of SOTM today, as expected.  I’ll let it sit for a couple of days, write on other things, and then come back to read it again before beginning my editing process, and then sending it off to my editor.

Due to the long delay in posting at Lit, I won’t be submitting it until next weekend ( barring any problems with editing )  Putting it in the queue at any other time risks a Saturday or Sunday posting, which are the kiss of death for reads, so I avoid them at all costs.

Sanctuary of the Wood is approaching 4500 words, so that’s moving well.  Plenty of time to have it finished, polished, and ready to roll by the time the Earth Day contest comes around.

Writing every day, and have been for a while.  It’s usually on several stories, but eventually, they’ll all come together and be ready for posting.  I’ve got a fairly good rhythm going, and until something breaks it, I’m good to go.

I’ll also mention that Red finished the first of the replacement chapters for the “A Royal Sacrifice” chain.  She submitted it today, and started working on the next replacement chapter immediately.  In the relatively near future, that chain should once more be whole.

For anyone who doesn’t know the story, one of the authors in the chain left Lit, and pulled all her stories.  As the replacement chapters post, I’ll announce them here and fix the links on the ARS page.  I need to get in there and add the ones that I forgot, as well.  I somehow missed linking the last several chapters.  I think I copied the old page, and the chain wasn’t complete when I posted that.
