Re: Writing Status

Update for December 5, 2024:

Misfits, Chapter 3: Mom at the Movies, has been posted to PRM.

Sorry that this one is late.  The reviewers took forever, and then I ran into a last-minute plot decision dilemma that had to be resolved before posting this chapter (as I might have had to remove scenes).

In any case, here's the next chapter of Misfits.  Chapter 4 will be out sometime around January 1st.

If you're wondering about Agent of Change, I'm working through a planning stage with the story right now.  It's taking a while, but hopefully when I'm done, I'll be able to just write straight through for a couple chapters, at least.

Just to mention some other things still on my mind, I have begun Tempest of the Flames, which is the fourth and final story in the Tempest of the Flames series.  Unlike parts 1 - 3, TotF will be a three-chapter novella, instead of a short story.  Also, I'm still planning out the next parts of Where the Brontosaurs Roam.  Yes, I know it has been literally years since a chapter has gotten released.  My muses have been rather lackadaisical lately.

Re: Writing Status

Update for December 20, 2024:

As of today, I have, in my career, written just over five million words.  That is an average of 500 words a day for the last 27 1/2 years.

(NOT that it was written that way!)

Here's to managing at least another million or two before the end.

I second that. Hope your holidays go well for you.

Re: Writing Status

Thank you to both of you for your well-wishes.

As to the holidays, they will go neither well nor poorly for me.  At this point in my life, Christmas is pretty much dead.  Not that I dislike it, but I no longer feel any "spirit" for the holiday.  I don't decorate, I don't send out cards, I don't have anyone to give gifts to.

My mother's passing in 1991 took probably 2/3 of my "spirit of Christmas", as it was "her" holiday.  She loved it and she went all out with the decorations and the cookies and all that.

Keeshaba's passing in 2019 pretty well took the other 1/3.  Christmas was her second-favorite holiday (behind Halloween), and we did as much as we could afford to celebrate together.

Sad as this may sound, it's actually an improvement on how I felt during the holidays of the early 90's, when Christmas still reminded me rather sharply of my mother's passing, and often left me deeply depressed.  Now, December is just the month on the way to January.

I know, no one wanted to read all that.  Tough shit, it's my website.  3dtongue

Re: Writing Status

My condolences on the associations you have with the holiday season - my other half died of pancreatic cancer, losing her third battle with different cancers, on Dec 28, 2013.

Re: Writing Status

My sympathies.  That would truly put a dark pall over the holiday for some time, if not permanently.

Update for January 8, 2025:

Misfits, Chapter 4: New Friends, has been posted to PRM.

Sorry this is a week late.  I wasn't in the right mental state to edit this before posting.  (Needless to say, that means I haven't done any writing, either.  Wonderful way to start the year.)
