《Embrace the Blade [Drafts 1&2]》Future Plans
Advertisement
Wow! So many of you have stuck around through this long dry period! Huge thanks to ya'll!
To put my future plans simply: I WANNA COME BACK!!!
I'm a person who can't stand to do nothing for long periods of time (despite being lazy), and I haven't had much success with a job (yet, fingers crossed) so I need something to do. So, what do I do? "Go back and work on your book!" I had thought to myself. Well, I started, and took another look at the plot line I had. It was basically non-existant. Can't say I was too happy with myself. So I started working on my plotline from the ground-up! That's essentially where I've been the last few months. I want to work on my book, but I won't let myself until the plot line is finished. Once I realize that, I lose all motivation to actually work on the plotline, and that's been the several month long vicious cycle I've been stuck in.
Now this is where I imagine you chiming in to say "Does this update mean you've finished the new plotline now?"
No, no I haven't, but I have enough written for most of book one (by my estimations) and I've decided that I just need to get back to it. I don't want to be stuck in this endless loop with the stress gnawing a hole in my slightly paunchy gut. So my solution is just to suck it up and start writing again.
That's where ya'll come in! I want to hear your feedback. This is an excellent opportunity to fix mistakes I've made in the past, and to give more impact to the characters. I want to hear if I should give more or less detail, if you want me to focus more or less on grinding or inter-personal interactions. I want to hear these things! Sock 'em to me, I can take it! Oh yeah, I also want to hear when ya'll want releases. The release frequency will depend on the lengths (

As an FYI the new ETB will be completely separate from this one! It will be on a separate webpage, and it's sequence of events will be different. YOU WILL NOT NEED TO READ THE ORIGINAL VERSION TO UNDERSTAND THE NEW ETB. Just felt the need to put that out there, even if it feels like a given.
Anyway, it's good to post again, even if it's only an update. Let me know people! Comments, PMs, THEY FUEL MY EXISTANCE!!! well sorta, I do like them though. See ya soon!
