jon_chaissonLove Like Blood:
Finished off another revision of Chapter 3. I'm thinking the Big Action Scene near the end of the chapter still needs a bit of work, or at least a better lead into it, but I'll work on that on the next wave through. The final shot probably needs a bit of work too. Working on Chapter 4 now, in which we find Our Hero doing all sorts of fun things three months later. I just started this so I'm not exactly sure what needs fixing yet.
A Division of Souls:
I have to remind myself that my writing style for LLB is definitely different from this one, so it doesn't necessarily need to sound the same. On the other hand, Most of this was written a good eight or nine years ago so could probably do with some dusting off. There's a lot of extraneous stuff not needed, a few connecting scenes not needed, and a lot of prose that needs cleaning up. Keep in mind, this is still dealing with the first few chapters...which almost always need a lot of work come revision time.
Walk In Silence:
Due to the fact that I'd saved the two WIS chapters in a newer MS Word format that this laptop doesn't have, I find myself currently not working on the actual writing of it. However, yesterday afternoon to evening I started something I'd meant to do some time ago, a "music chronology" reference sheet--basically a chronology of music releases (only some albums at present, but will add singles, comps, and other timely things to it once Spare Oom is back up and running). My reason for making this is so I can refer to a chronology without having to boot up my mp3 collection or go to Wikipedia every five minutes. Sure, it might be a bit off, but it's something to work with at any rate.
Other:
A few ideas in mind that may see light this coming week. More about that soon.
Overall:
The scheduling is working well so far! Basically I worked on LLB on Monday and Tuesday, ADoS on Wednesday and Thursday, did a bit of both on Friday, and worked on the WIS chronology on Saturday. There's room for variation, but I like how this is working out, so I'll be sticking to it.
