Writing Progress

Chapter 48 of Novel 4 is finally done, and Ken has finished his work on Chapter 47. It has been slow going on this one...much slower than one might think for each of us only writing 50,000 words each but nevertheless it is finally being completed. 55 Chapters total, then revisions. I will be quite pleased when it is done.

Lia's poem for the podcast, "The House at the Falls" is also done. Its quite good I think. And it continues the podcast, since I admit there were times where I wasn't entirely sure I'd keep doing it. Hard to do when you're not sure anyone listens.

The Graphic novel is about half way through Chapter 3. I'm doing two more pages tonight.

My primary project at the moment is a short story for a friend. Not sure if it is publishable since it is essentially a riff on one of their works, but, quite frankly I intend for it to be a master piece when finished. If I can do it right but it is exceptionally difficult in nature to do.

Good progress for the most part

One of the two epic poems "House at the Top of the Falls" is done, along with Season 3 of the Sentinel Chronicles. Didn't get as much writing done this weekend done as I'd hoped but on the other hand I'm much more in a long term writing mode, which I haven't been for a while. I'll be writing chapter 48 of Novel 4 and starting 5 stories today, including a rewrite of "Mr. Popularity" since I was never thrilled with how that came out.

First and foremost though I need to do another 3-4 pages of Chapter 3 of "Seventh Seal."

Not feeling very motivated. At ALL.

But I'm managing to crank out a bit. I'm on page 3 of Chapter 3 of the Graphic Novel with Liz.

Here is one page to give you an idea of what she's doing. It's rather impressive to me. I have her permission to post this page, though bear in mind she owns 90% of it.

Ken is working on Chapter 47, so we're moving on Novel 4 finally.

I'm about 30% done on TSC Season 3, "The Fall of Humanity."

But I don't think I have the energy to write something purely on my own. The podcast has been shot due to computer problems which will hopefully be solved tonight. I finally have started on Dave's and Lia's poems. Lia's is, "The Waylaid Waterfall" and Dave's is "The Trunkated Obelisk." Hopefully they'll like them and I'll have them up for the July podcast.

Report

I'll be resuming Novel 4 later next week. Novel 5 is delayed until next year since the Divorce pretty much allows (and justifies) a reset of all goals. Right now, the Ritual takes priority of previously established goals.

Chapter 2 of 6 of Seventh Seal is done. I might see if I can post a page here (for my two readers) but I'll have to get Liz's permission since she owns 90% of it (which is fair since drawing/painting/wording it is 90% of the work.)

I am starting a new poem....even if...I don't entirely know what it is yet. Its for Lia, who was in one of my films recently....and its a neat (very neat) primer...but lightning hasn't struck yet...but I'm sure it will in a day or two.

Report

Mr. Popularity is stalled given personal difficulties. I have 22 out of 96 pages on 7th Seal Done. Don't need a script for Rossam's since I found a Creative Common's one. Novel 4 will pick up again in July when Ken can work on it.

Progress

500 words towards Mr. Popularity.

4 more pages towards Seventh Seal.

Desire to write latently coming back....I suspect I'll be up to full speed some time in June.

Writing

Haven't gotten much done, but I feel much better. More progress should be made.

Talked with Ken about N4CH47. He's working on it. We're too close to give up now.

1/8th of the way through conversion of "Tossing Grenades at Windmills" to an audio play. Est completion day, April 30th. May will be all about "Rossom's Universal Robots."

I have started two new poems. "Mr. H's Angel." and "Tempus Fugit Inc."

I have also started a short story, untitled but I think that I will call, "Mr. Popularity." Hoped for completion is May 1.
