more solid plans for January (and beyond) (Patreon)
Content
Okay so I've got my re-edits and fixes figured out for the next Chiaroscuro chapter, so posting schedule will probably look something like this:
Jan 10 - Chiaroscuro VJan 15 - deleted sceneJan 20 - chapter commentaryJan 25 - possible PDF (still not sure if people like these?)
Because this chapter got extremely long and I chopped it in half already, and just took out a whole scene for pacing reasons (which is the bonus deleted scene), NEXT month will also very likely be Chiaroscuro. By that point, we'll be far enough into the rewrites that I will very likely stop giving out the draft, which would be the end of February. I would love to finish the rewrites this year and get started on Nocturne's.
The poll about the advent stories (which you can still vote in!) put Kir and Darban's story (currently kinda unnamed) at #1 for most interest, and the figure skating story (called 'How to Win Gold') in second, tied with the urban supernatural/ghost into a bottle (called 'Qareen') story. So I will be working on those pretty heavily! Other things are closer to being done and may be posted first, but these have moved into high priority slots. Kir and Darban's story already has 60k+ words written for it, but since it's me and I write completely out of order, nothing can be posted yet. The other two are more novella length than novel, so to finish them will take less time than Kir and Darban's.
Anyway, I hope that all sounds good, and you can still throw in your vote for any of the advent stories that interested you!
