New Blog. . . Again

I switched blogs.  The new link is on my fanfiction profile!

FINISHED with 14

I just finished chapter fourteen of Possessions.  I plan to sleep in tomorrow, then edit it.  And what that means to all you people is that the update will be some time tomorrow afternoon. 

It took me so long to write this chapter.  Reason?  It is really long!  This one is my longest yet, coming in at a grand total of 10072 words.  (This of course includes ANs and Review Responses)  I had originally predicted 10k words, so I'm really impressed that I got so close of an estimation. 

Okay, and for anyone already interested in the next chapter, I'll go ahead and talk about that here.  Chapter Fifteen is going to be pretty rough for me to write.  If I can, I will try to have it up within a reasonable time period.  It isn't going to be as long as Fourteen, but that is because I don't plan on having quite as much happen. 

But don't worry, I still gave it a rating of 8/10 in reference to action level.  That's even with Fourteen.  Prepare to enter the spiral downwards to the end of Part One.

Still Typing 14. . .

Okay, it's been a while.  I know.  But I have maybe three hundred words left of Seto's POV, then I have to type up what I have of Mokuba's. . . then finish writing Mokuba's.  It is a long list.  I realize that.  But I am working on it.  I figure I can get the rest of Seto's POV finished today, and hopefully type up the rest of what I've written.  Then I'll just have to get inspired to write the rest of what happens to my little Kaiba. 

This is my ROUGH plan for the next update.  Typing a lot today, plotting and writing tomorrow and Thursday, then editing Friday.  Maybe I'll have time to update this weekend. 

However, I think I should point out that there is a chance this won't happen.  My sister is pregnant, and this baby is going to be coming any day now.  Whenever that happens, I won't be near my computer.  IF my niece comes this week, I won't be able to update.  Who knows when it'll happen though.

Blogger

I got really annoyed when Blogger went down for like, two days.  I had something to post about in regards to Possessions, and I couldn't!  It was basically torture. 

So, remember how in the last post I commented on how crabby I was?  Something happened immediately following.  I don't know what it was, but it was amazing. 

I ended up rewriting Possessions Fourteen.  The same stuff happens, but I wrote differently than normal.  I'm not really sure if any of you will be able to see the difference, but it is there.  And I'm so happy about that.  However, that does mean that I didn't work any more on Mokuba's POV, which will take the longest time. 

Hopefully, I'll have the next chapter up some point next week.  But no promises.

Bleh

I've had a pretty crappy day.  I hate family drama, but moving home for the summer, it had to come at some point. 

And although I'm not in a great mood, I'm going to try to write some.  If the writing isn't very good, I'll just have to stop.  But as it happens, my weekend cleared up, so maybe the update will come sooner.  Haha- but maybe not.  For anyone who follows me on Fanfiction, you know how long I can take to update.  Especially any fans of Arose Power. I spents ages between updates for that fic. 

My mind has been reeling about how to write out this particular chapter.  It is going to be really long and complex, so it is going to take some effort.  I'm not used to having to put large amounts of effort into each chapter.  Haha.  Surprising?  I usually just go with my first draft - with minor proof reading. 

Oh, and if anyone wants to beta the chapters I have posted, by all means, send me a message.  I'd be glad for someone else to proof read them.

Chapter Four- FtD

I just posted Chapter Four of From the Dead.  I realize that this isn't my most popular story, but it really is important to me.  This was the first piece of writing (other than poetry) that I had ever completed, so it represents a large step in my writing career.  It proved to me that I was capable of finishing something. 

Of course, now it is unfinished.  I like the plot line, but the writing was that of a fifteen year old.  I'm better than that now, at least, I'd like to think that.  So I'm redoing it.  Slowly, as Possessions is my main focus. 

Oh!  And for anyone out there who is interested in a Possessions update, I'll do that too. 

I worked on Mokuba's POV yesterday.  I'm not actually done with Seto's POV yet, but Mokuba's is going to be really long.  I'm about at two thousand words and the section is just getting started.  Writing chase scenes is pretty difficult, so that is going to take some time.  Don't expect an update this week.  Sorry.

Writer's Block

I hated not being able to write.  I'm going to blame my procrastination on being sick, but I can't actually tell you that being sick has anything to do with it.  For some odd reason, I just haven't felt like writing over the past few days.  (in which time I've been sick) It sounds insane, since I'm so excited about this chapter, but I can't get it written. 

Maybe I'm just worried that it won't turn out right, so I'm going very VERY slowly.  That might be it.  Or maybe I've just thought it over so many times it seems kind of boring.  Either way, the chapter is coming along slowly.  But hey, I got the review responses written.  Haha. 

Want to know something cool?  I have been making a spreadsheet for my daily writing stuff, including Possessions.  And I made this chart that I found very interesting.  On a scale of 1-10, I ranked each chapter of Possessions based on how exciting it was.  Then I compared that to the number of reviews.  The lines almost exactly have the same shape.  It is so cool to look at.
