Going forward (non-story update).

I wanted to give an update on my writing.

We just hit the first milestone for the Royal Road Writathon. I managed to accomplish the total writing needed for both Butcher of Gadobhra and Tunnel Rat. The goal was 25k words in the days since Oct. 31st. If you noticed a large number of chapters lately, that's the reason. I had to accelerate my writing in the last few days to meet that first goal.

Now I, and other writers, have until Dec. 5th to finish a total of 55,555 words. There are no real prizes for this, it's simply a bi-yearly challenge.

So what now? First chore is going over the stories, and correcting typos, some of which people have already reported. Writing this much, this fast can leave extra errors. Then tomorrow I need to start writing again, and just keep going until that goal is reached. Normally I try for 6k words per week, per story. This is going to take about twice that. Yay for bonus chapters.

-Come back to the story later. Expand if needed, look at feedback for both good and bad, make changes. Edit again and put back into Royal Road.

-Publish when that chapter's turn arrives. Normally Thurs, Sun, Mon since those are my days off and I have time to write and edit.

So you can expect a steady stream of chapters until the end of Writathon. Then back to a normal schedule. I'm waiting to see how the holidays affect things. I still work four days a week in my Comic and Game store, so the holidays mean long hours. I also have a new grand daughter to spend some time with.

As always, thanks for reading, and if you have questions about anything, feel free to send me a PM.
