《The [God] Machine》Progress Report: Part 14 Waiting Room
Advertisement
This chapter, if you could even call it that, serves to document my progress on upcoming parts as well as other things I may be working on or planning. Entries will be listed by date (mm/dd/yyyy) with the most recent entries being towards the top of this page.
8/19/2022: Damn, its been a while. Don't think I've forgotten about you yet though, because believe me, I haven't. I'm about to wrap up undergrad and have begun the job hunting process. Needless to say, I haven't had much time to dedicate to this. In an effort to get myself back into this, I've taken to rewriting the first couple parts to make the narrative style more consistent and address a few holes, among other things. We'll probably ended up with less total chapters but at a similar word count. Part 1—now a combination of 1 and 2—is done, so it'll end up on here sooner or later. The older, legacy parts will remain accessible as a means to transparently catalogue my progress. I think that's all I have to say for now, so expect something soon-ish and have a good rest of your summer.
2/16/2022: This year's gonna be a bitch. I'll continue to write of course, even if it isn't much.
12/25/2021: Happy Holidays, P.15 14 begins with some brief, preliminary notes.
12/25/2021: PART 14 POSTED
12/1/2031: Definitely not dead, I swear. The P.14 outline is more or less completed and the actual chapter is about 3-4 pages right now. Slowly but surely.
9/20/2021: Don't worry, I'm still alive. I've had some important revelations recently, largely on things that don't matter yet, but important ones nonetheless. The P.14 outline is six pages as of now and my guess is it'll be about 12 pages completed, with the actual chapter clocking in at a similar page count.

7/11/2021: Our favorite document returns, now with more lines. The progress on each chapter will be separated by a page break like below. Anyway, I've begun some preliminary planning for Part 14. I have this event calendar that needs some more detail before I move on.
7/6/2021: PART 13 POSTED
6/27/2021: Provied I remember, P.13 will be posted later today. A handful of minor chnages to parts 3, 4, 6, and 10 have been posted already.
6/21/2021: P.13 is approaching the home stretch.
5/21/2021: P.13 is now 12 pages.
5/6/2021: I've posted that short story I mentioned previously on my fictions page. It is titled "Who Fixes Books Anyway?" go and check it out if ya want. On another note, I've finally become of drinking age recently, too bad I can't drink away finals.
4/23/2021: Still alive, though I resemble a corpse. With the semester wrapping up I have had no time to work on P.13. What I have had time to do, however, was to work on a short story as a final project for one of my classes. I'll likely end up posting it here when I'm done so I can say I did something.
4/5/2021: Midterms are over, thank god. Now to start preparing for finals, kill me. P.13 is now 10 pages.
3/22/2021: God, I hate midterms. P.13 goin' on 9 pages now.
3/7/2021: Seven pages now. This part goes a lot faster, the only bottleneck is finding the time.
3/4/2021: Part 13: Mystery of the Colored Wood is now five pages. I'd wager it'll be slightly longer than its outline, somewhere between 15 to 20 pages. I tend to add/change a lot of dialogue when actually writing a part.
2/23/2021: Just pulled an all nighter, did I ever mention I'm back at school? Because I am now. Work still continues on the next part whose writing has officially begun after the aforemention outline's completion.

2/1/2021: Outline is complete at 15 pages. Actual writing will begin soon.
1/26/2021: P.13 outline is now 13 pages. I estimate It'll be done by about 15 pages.
12/27/2020: Even if its a bit late, happy holidays everyone. Writing continues at a very slow, but steady pace. A common theme you've surely noticed.
12/4/2020: P.13 outline now 11 pages.
11/27/2020: Finals are over, the writing continues. Slowly.
11/18/2020: Finals are almost over, work will resume soon.
11/12/2020: P.13 now 10 pages. The classic worm, now with legs and wings. Ruler of the skies, eater of melons.
11/6/2020: Working on part 13 outline, currently going on 9 pages. Slow-going thanks to semester coming to a close. You know, finals and all that.

Imagine waking up in a hospital room, you can barely move. No one comes when you call. The only other person present is a little boy, who is, surprisingly, more help than you would expect.

As Sally uncovers more about her situation, she finds that she has to be smart and tough and that in this place she needs to depend on her friends, who are using her as much as she is using them. This book contains themes concerning life, death, and body functions, light swearing, minimal nakedness, and should be suitable for most. Some pertinent info: Ten Thousand Sallys is a complete novel of approximately 140 pages in 20 chapters. Around 80,000 words. not too long, and maybe too short. Give it a read and let me know your opinion.
