Waiting for the young one to chill out a little.\u00a0 Think I may finally have the right mix to finish the last chapter of Lowborn.\u00a0 I’ll see when I start writing it if it feels as good putting it on paper as it feels in my head right now.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, I’ve done some more work on the short stories page.\u00a0 The main page now loads all the stories from the database and displays everything as expected.<\/p>\n
The individual story pages now load the cover and title from the database, and merge in the text of the story stored elsewhere for easy editing, if I miss something during the editing process.<\/p>\n
Comments load from the database and display as expected at the bottom of each story.\u00a0 That includes only showing the “click to comment” portion if there aren’t any reader comments on a story yet.<\/p>\n
What’s left to do:<\/p>\n
Code the “Make a Comment” page.<\/p>\n
Add a “latest three” header to the top of the main short story page for easy location of new additions once the list starts growing.<\/p>\n
What’s left to do behind the scenes:<\/p>\n
Code a\u00a0utility to add new stories to the shorts database.<\/p>\n
Code a\u00a0utility to moderate comments on the short stories.<\/p>\n
Update my story database utility to account for the new shorts page.<\/p>\n
Update the “Latest Releases” utility to do the same.<\/p>\n
Update both “My Work” and “Latest Releases” to display the short story links to the public.<\/p>\n
And, of course, get some more short stories done \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
If I finish coding before I finish all three of the new Devan shorts, I’ll go ahead and launch the section with the ones I’ve completed ( one done already, just needs to go through my editor )<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
