After reading back through the chapters I wrote for NaNo I decided I needed to revise the entire outline AGAIN, and I've now finished it. So the revised, revised outline is now complete! And ended up being even longer, with 40 chapters (and some chapters might eventually get split into two if they're too long, so...it's long lol). Of course now I have to actually WRITE the thing, but still--progress!
The good news: chapter 18 is done (in draft form). The bad news: I'm now reaching the part of my outline that was kinda vague because I still need to hammer some things out. But still--progress! And I'm at 41k for my NaNo, not bad. This is the farthest the ReEldest outline has ever actually gotten...
Still working on ReEldest for NaNo this year, and I've finished drafting chapters 15, 16, and 17. I mean they're gonna need plenty of editing when the whole thing is done, but progress! Lots of progress! Can't edit a blank page, right?

Sadly I'm getting to the places where my outline is a little less detailed, so the challenges will only increase...T__T But it's something. Maybe I could at least get through chapter 20 by the end of the month? It's a 32 chapter outline, so that would be pretty good...
Apparently someone new subscribed to my journal??? No idea how you ended up here but sorry I post so few public entries, I swear I post about games and writing occasionally.

Anyway...Camp NaNo is like a week away so I need to very quickly figure out what I'm doing lol.

Will I once more fail to write ReEldest? )

CHAPTER 13 IS WRITTEN! Out of a planned 32. So...more than 1/3 there? PROGRESS.
As of tonight I've finished chapter 12! PROGRESS AT LAST. Er, only of the draft, though! It'll still need editing eventually. But it exists! Next up: chapter 13...the start of the section that kept stalling me in other drafts. But this time will be different! This is the year...I hope lol.

But, confession: about half of my NaNo words so far are just random short pieces from a totally different story...ReEldest is challenging. But I'm getting there! Little by little.
The other thing I used to post about on social media, years ago, was my writing and games. So: ReEldest update!

By the time this thing is finally finished no one will exist who wants to read it, but I don't even care, this NEEDS to get done. I've been working on this since high school. I need to finish at least SOME projects in my life. Makes you feel a bit of sympathy for GRRM, sometimes it's just really hard to finish a project, you know?
Spoilers! If anyone cares lol )
