News update

Hey folks, some news and tidbits. 

Wrote a new story, “Saffron,” just an original story. Kind of came out of nowhere really. Just woke up with a story and wrote it. Kind of don’t want it to become a whole long story, but we will see what happens with it. Just a diversion for a day is all. Still a read would be nice. It has loli futa/shota in it. baleetedor baleeted

Still working on the new Terra, it’s getting there. I have about 2 scenes to write for the rough draft, and then I’m going to do the whole edit thing, which is really my way of padding scenes more than cutting anything. I barely ever cut anything. Just my way I guess.

In personal news, I’m still feeling crappy. Been coughing up everything it seems, and it’s not pretty. I’m fine when I’m not coughing, but when I do it feels like I’m coughing up broken glass or something. I don’t know. Every says ‘Well if you’re coughing it up then it’s good’ but it’s like, yeah, if I’m coughing it up it’s better than keeping it in. The problem is that I’m still coughing it up after more than a week. Oh well, boo hoo right? Gotta just suck it up.

Oh and World of Futanari has been raised from the dead, for now at least. I’m gonna wait until the database is good to do anything, but it’s nice to see the place up and about.

Maybe a new WC soon. Superbowl tommorow. S’all I got.

Terra 25 published

Well the basic news is that the new chapter of Terra, Chapter 25, Terra’s Tears, has been published. You can see it here. It’s a different one. Theromen calls it more episodic, but I don’t know. I had tried to do something a little different with it, by changing, or shifting, perspectives more often in the story. It was necessary for this chapter, but it was different than what I had been doing really, so I don’t know how well it would up working. Feel free to let me know.

Beyond that I’m already hard at work on the next chapter of Terra. I resolved myself to not write a chapter of something else until I had gotten them to Mars. And I will finish that part of the story. It’s taken quite some time getting from there to here, as someone put it to me in chat, it took almost as much as a real trip to Mars would have. Well depending where Mars was relative to Earth. 

I think that the upcoming chapters will come a bit easier for me, really. I had planned out so much of the stuff that happened out on the ship to death, almost. I mean I have the whole outline of the story planned out, but I don’t think about it as in depth as what I’m doing next. I guess maybe a better way of saying it is that I’ve had a lot of time to think about it. I was working on so many different stories for so long, the Club Vanilla chapters, the whole theater arc was something, the What You Need stories, the Bang stories, and Thirteenth Hour, so much time for me to think. And the more that I thought about things, the more that it became stuff that I had worked on already, that my mind had felt good about it being done. So I wasn’t as interested in writing them.

But now I’m moving onto more interesting stuff, more original stuff. Things that I haven’t thought all the way about, to death. It’s pretty important really. The more that you like to write, the more that you’ll want to. That was also a major role, because there was so much about Terra that was hard for me to write. Things like Terra being yelled at, Terra being hurt, it wasn’t all that easy for me to work on all the time. The trip was meant to be unpleasant, and it was, to some degree. But as the old axiom goes, it’s always darkest before the light. So now we’re moving onto the light, and hopefully things will become easier to read, and enjoy. It’s becoming easier to write, that’s for sure. And things will look better, although there will be plenty of bleak points.

Okay, now that I got my lengthy rant done with, we can move onto what’s next. Besides the Terra chapter that I finished, I haven’t been doing a heck of a lot. Still lazy about the website. I haven’t worked on any of the editing projects that I had been, mostly because nobody is getting anything to me to beta. So I can’t do anything until I have something to work on.

Let’s see, there isn’t much else to be honest. I’m sick of cold weather, tomorrow is going to be 32 degrees and that seems warm. Work has gotten easier, by far, but the less hours is going to hurt. I just hope that I get my w2 so I can do my taxes early again this year. A month almost without caffeine or soda, well sprite doesn’t count really. Loving my new book, MABTW. 

S’all I got today.

Bang in the who gives a shit really?

Hello people. I know that I haven’t updated in far too long and I have nothing else to say about it other than it’s been purely my own laziness. I haven’t had much of an issue at work, it’s died down a lot. So yes it’s just been laziness.

Beyond the laziness, happy new year. Did a chapter of Terra, Failed Attempts.(Scroll down) It came out pretty well, we shift back to everyone on Mars, and I try to flesh out some of the characters a little bit. 

There’s also another bang story, Bang in the Proposal. It’s become an end of sorts, well at least a conclusion to the last story, Bang in the Yulelog. It wrapped up the hanging ends, but still left plenty of room open for some something new if it strikes me.

I’ve been working on a round robin story with Theromen and Basil_Jelly, we’re having a bit of fun on it. Snow day is here if you want to read it, or join it.

Working on another chapter of Terra next, I’m trying to get the story into gear. I don’t want to just be writing a chapter every 2 or 3 months again. My goal is to get things closer to finishing soon, but it’s still some ways away. But if I can get things going and get past this little block that I’ve been dealing with, it’d be nice. It’s not that I’ve just gotten writer’s block, far from it. but the big problem is that I’ve been thinking about so much of this stuff for so long that now my noggin just kind of thinks about it as old news. So once I get past this, it will all be different stuff. Sure there’s a lot planned, but it’s different than having thought it all out. I can tell you that they get to Mars, but thinking about how that happens specifically is different. So sure there are various things that I will set up in these chapters that will come into play, including Kyle’s roommate, and Josiah’s courtesan. They will play important roles in the story, but so will people like Brody and Green. Things are getting heavy, and I want to get to the heaviness soon. So in doing that, the next chapter of Terra is close to a very rough draft, but it’s going to need a lot of beefing up. Still just getting through the scenes are important, even knowing that I’m going to have to return to it. So I basically have 2 scenes, well maybe just one real long one to do and then I go back and fill it up.

Ok, long paragraph. Beyond that I’ve been beta reading again, a little something for wolfdragongod, which has some promise. The other thing is something that a new writer is working on, Jay Bird, at F3. I’ll keep both on the down low, but if they post it, I’ll blog it. Probably like a month after but nevertheless.

Still haven’t updated my website, still mulling over just doing the blog thing. It’s not that much effort, again, pure laziness. 

Personally things are more or less the same. Liver is acting up again, hopefully it won’t be too big of an issue. I’m a survivor. Work is, as I said, dying down a bit, which is nice, but the lack of money isn’t. Just waiting on the W2 form right now. Hoping to get a car with it. Should be some decent deals now, with the bad economy. 

I plan on writing Terra until another story idea comes to mind. I have a few different story thoughts, but they’re really not much more than characters. Still got an idea for another What You Need story but its baseball related. Maybe during spring training, when the game starts for real.

Well I hope I made up for the long absence with a decent explanatory post. A comment, reply, email, something, wouldn’t hurt.

Peace
