I put ch. 14 in the queue at Lit a minute ago. If the turnaround time for submissions is as I expect, it should come out at the midnight transition between Thursday and Friday.
As soon as it posts at Lit, I’ll put it in the queue at SOL.
Hope you all enjoy it, and be sure to comment. Feedback is the fuel that drives me, so maybe you can spur me on to write faster 😉
The edit of SOTM 14 is complete, and I’ll be putting it in the queue at Lit on Tuesday, aiming for a Friday release ( unless I get conflicting information about the turnaround time for new submissions at Lit, in which case I’ll adjust to still aim for Friday )
Keep in mind that I’m going to hold off for a little while before putting out 15. I’m only a couple of chapters ahead and writing slow as hell, so I’m going to give myself some time in hopes that releasing chapters will spur me to write faster on upcoming ones.
Now, back to Heart of the Wood. First time in days that I’ve had a bit of writing spark, and I want to get this one going. I have tomorrow off, so if I can get some momentum going today, I might just get this one into a position where I’m reasonably confident that I’ll finish it on time.
Finished the final read of SOTM 14. I’m going to send it off to my editor in a few minutes. He usually finishes up an edit in a day, so that’s within my timeframe for putting it in the queue this week.
If all works out as planned, the chapter should come out on Lit on Friday night, though it could be Thursday or Saturday. As soon as I see it go live, I’ll put it in the queue at SOL.
As soon as I get the email off, it’s back to Heart of the Wood. I’m struggling with motivation, but picking up a little steam. Hoping the young one cooperates by going to bed at a decent hour and not acting like a demon =P
Well, I’ve pretty much decided that I’m going to go ahead with posting new chapters. Mind you, I won’t be posting them in rapid succession. I only have 4 chapters beyond what’s posted complete, so I’m going to string them out a bit. How long, I’m not sure. It will depend upon various things.
No matter what, SOTM Ch. 14 should be coming out fairly soon. I’m working on the final read and edit before I send it off to my editor.
Still working on Heart of the Wood, though it’s slow going.
Still have a large chunk of that Mindblind history story ( Lowborn ) done, and just need to finish the damn thing. Once that one’s done, I’m fairly certain that the sequel to Blackhawk Hall will be my next project in the Nobles by Deed series.
Okay, back to Heart for a while. It’s reasonably quiet ( by usual standards, anyway ) so I’m going to see how far I can get.
Not a lot of people come here, but I hope at least a few might see this.
I’m considering releasing some of the finished chapters of SOTM, even though it will mean that there’s probably going to be more long lapses between chapters in the future.
Thoughts?
Still working on Heart — slowly. Work is still being a pain in the ass.
