Writing

Weekly writing updates? Let’s try.

I have been working on three projects right now so, let’s do a quick status update:

  1. First Brood 4: Emma – 16823 words
  2. Dewey – 9300 words
  3. Fruit of the Dead S1E3 – 223 words

Fruit of the Dead should cap at about 3000 words. I’d like to keep each installment short as I build the story. No clue how long the others will end up. I tend to bounce between these three. I may be working on one then have a brain wave for another one and I just go with it. Hopefully FotD will be finished this month but, we’ll see. I may hit my stride with the others so, I’m not making any promises. If you’d like a teaser for the first two, check out my Patreon. The first chapters are posted there for free.

Side Biz Status Update!

One of my yearly/life goals is stash busting and I’ve made some decent progress in that regard. These two items have been added to my shop! I have a lot more to go but I’m making some decent headway. My last round of decluttering unearthed even more damn yarn but I am not deterred. I will make things out of all the yarn I’ve bought and do my best to sell them. I know they’re some very simple designs but, I’m going for speed. And I have some interesting yarn types that I’m not sure what to do with. What comes out of it will be interesting.

As for my writing, here are the current word counts for my WIPs:

  • First Brood 4 Emma: 16,823 words
  • Dewey: 9,210 words

I’m making okay progress on these but I’m gonna spend some time outlining the rest of the plot for these two. I always start out thinking I totally can wing it for the rest of the manuscript but nah. If I want both of these done before the end of the year, I’m gonna have to be more organized. I’d like to continue my Fruit of the Dead series and that will ABSOLUTELY need a proper outline to make sure the episodes make sense. My goal is to have a wide variety of genres for people to read. And to get out of debt by finally making these things profitable.

Patreon Pause

As I do not have any supporters here, I will not be posting any further updates to these stories to my Patreon. Once I get some followers, I’ll resume again. This doesn’t mean I won’t keep working on these stories and I’ll of course keep this blog updated with my progress but, it’s not worth stressing out making posts nobody reads. If this changes, I’ll let ya’ll know!
