Old news off to the cache.

Just a couple of quick notes, at the moment.  First, I’m a finalist in the Literotica Reader’s Choice Awards.  Go vote for me!  You need to be a registered Lit member in order to vote.  If you aren’t, sign up and vote for me! *laugh*  I’ll give you a Gmail Invite, in order to give you a forum-safe addy, if you want.  I’ve got loads of them, if you haven’t already tried Gmail.

Second, I had a flash of inspiration, and ended up writing a story for the Lit Earth Day contest.  Never fear, it only took a few hours out of work on Danica.  I started, and finished it last night.  I’m just waiting for Roust to finish editing it, and then I’ll get it into the queues.  Go vote for it at Lit (as Les Lumens)

Danica Update:

Sections of Book I re-edited: 17/64 (27%)

Sections of Book I passed through editor: 11/64 (17%)

Chapters of SOTM written: 4¼

New edits submitted to Lit: Danica Pt. 02 (4/23 – 17%)

New edits posted at Lit: Ebon Genesis (3/23 – 13%)

Ebon is finally up.  Roust should have the section he’s working on finished today.  When he wraps it up, I’ll get Danica Pt. 02 in the queue, and update this.  I’ll probably finish an edit, and get up to another ¼ of SOTM before the day is over, too.

I’ll be on vacation the second week of April, so there should be a solid jump that week.  More later today, I’m sure, so don’t expect this to be the final update of the day.

Mid-afternoon:  Roust finished his section, and I’ve put Pt. 02 into the queue.  Probably more to come today.

An hour or so later: Up to 4¼ on SOTM.  I’m taking a little break for the day, at the moment.  I may finish another re-edit, before the day is over, though.  If not, I’ll see everyone in the April updates =)

Danica Update:

Sections of Book I re-edited: 17/64 (27%)

Sections of Book I passed through editor: 11/64 (17%)

Chapters of SOTM written: 4

New edits submitted to Lit: Ebon Genesis (3/23 – 13%)

New edits posted at Lit: … (2/23 – 9%)

I think Ebon might post tonight, and if it does, I’ll update this to reflect that.  I’m moving on my next re-edit, and Roust is finalizing one as well.  I have a lot of Ch. 5 already written, I just haven’t officially transferred it, from where I chopped it out of the old version of Ch. 4 yet.

When Roust finishes what he’s working on, I’ll put the edit for Pt. 02 in the queue at Lit.  What I’m re-editing now is the first third of Pt. 05.

Eventually, this progress report will gain a new entry: Chapters of SOTM edited.  I’m still not sure when I’ll start passing those through Roust.  Ideally, I’d like to have all of Book I get through him first.  That way, he’ll know the whole story, and be able to catch things he might otherwise miss, with respect to the storyline.  If I hit my six chapter goal long before I reach the 50% edits posted goal, though, I might jump into getting those edited.  I’ll probably give Roust a section of Book I, and then a chapter of Book II, until the first six are ready for prime time.  Once the six chapters are prepared for posting, I’ll put the first one in the queue.

As I’ve mentioned, the goal is to keep the story flowing on a solid schedule.  I don’t want to have long delays, as happened with the end of Book I.  I can’t promise anything, but at least going this route will give me a running start.

Danica Update:

I’m almost up to the 4¼ chapters of SOTM, actually.  The section of part four of Danica I’m working on is requiring a lot of work *laugh*  I can see why it struggled in votes/score, now.  Most of the edits were adding commas, and other punctuation issues.  This one is requiring a lot of rewording =P

Things keep moving right along.  Odds are, I’ll post another snippet of SOTM, sometime early next month.  Keep yer eyes peeled!
