I just sent Mike's Story Ch 3 out to the tier 3 folks. Tomorrow Benjamin's Tale Ch 6 goes out to tier 2 subscribers. I also noticed that I was a week late releasing Dave in Dallas ch 17 to tier 1 readers. My apologies, that has been corrected.
I'm still working on other projects, including more of my two main ...

Well, things are humming along nicely. I just sent Mike's Story, Ch 1 out to the Super Fans and released Benjamin's Tale ch 1 to the Fanatics.
Writing time lately has gone to two new stories, one of which I've mentioned in the past. The no-magic isekai I'm currently titling The Inseminator has gotten some atten...

Then on the 1st, those stories start coming out to the Fanatics (Tier 2). Also on the 1st, Super Fans will start getting Mike's Story. There are four chapters of that, so they'll come out one per we...

Seems I've missed a few of these. Heck, this one's a day late. oops.
My head is not in a good place. I won't bore you with the details, but I feel stretched in all directions, without the energy to tell the screaming psychopaths that they're just as evil as the folks they oppose. It's exhausting. And that doesn't even get into the wor...

Well, it has begin. Benjamin's Tale ch 1 was released to Tier 3 subscribers (Super Fans) on September 1st. Ch 2 goes out tomorrow. I plan to stick to a once every three days schedule so 1st, 4th, 7th, etc. There are ten chapters, each containing between 4k and 5k words. This is the story of Benjamin Tadiola, one of the men in Kevin Ansen's ...

Not a lot to say, just popping in to let everyone know that Benjamin's Tale, ch 1 will drop to Tier 3's on Monday, September 1st. Other chapters will release about every three days (as long as my feeble mind remembers). There's ten chapters, so you can expect 2-3 chapters, of roughly 4k words each, per week. Benjamin's Tale is one of th...

I think I missed two updates in a row. Things go busy at work. Got some things done there too, but ... eh, fuck it. That's not what this page is about.
So, here's where things stand. Dave in Dallas ch 17 now has two captain's approvals, so it's good to go all the way to Lit, once the time is right. I released it to Super Fans...

Still waiting on approval for Dave in Dallas ch 17 and 18. I think they will get reviewed this weekend.

Ok, Ch 17 of Dave in Dallas is still awaiting captain's review. There's been a bit of a stall, but work is progressing, there's just a big back log. I said last week I'd knuckle down on Ben's Tale Ch 9, but after a few paragraphs, I got motivated on DiD ch 18. It concludes a scene I've had written for over a year now, so that and some inspire...

Well, YouTube rainy background videos seem to be an effective mood setter for writing. It's not a silver bullet, but it sure helps.
Dave in Dallas Ch 17 is now up for captain's review. There are four other chapters ahead of it, so I don't anticipate full approval soon. Once I have at least one captain's approval, I send it out to Tier 3...

Just a quick note as I'm on a small roll working on Dave in Dallas Ch 17. I'm at 7700 words at the moment. Given where I want to get to for this chapter, it will probably hit 9k before I'm done. I may finish by late tonight, or more likely, sometime tomorrow. Then I'll send it off for peer review, followed by captain's review. Realistically...

Dave in Dallas ch 17 is in progress. I brought it up to 2.8k words today.
I've also been working on background material for Bunker stories,so that payoff won't be immediate.
And of course, I've done some proof reading for the other QT stories. Dude, there's some good stuff coming. But you knew that already.

Just short and quick:
A behind the scenes change has occurred that will hopefully speed up the approval process for QT material.

Yesterday, one of the captains reviewed Dave in Dallas ch 16. No big issues, but did give a few suggested tweaks. I will examine that passage again and see if I can fit some of that in. That will be the only change from the alpha version that went out last week to the beta version Tier 2's will get in three weeks. Well, ...

It's been twelve days since I asked for a signoff for DiD ch 16, and all I've gotten were to promises to look at it 'tomorrow'. Same person, a week apart. If there's no commentary by tomorrow when I get home from work, I will post it to Tier 3's with a disclaimer. I will have to make changes if something is deemed contrary to canon.

Still waiting on at least one captain to approve the latest Dave chapter.

Once it's past the smell test with most of the writers and at least one of our captains...

Weeelll, here we are, last day of April. Dave in Dallas ch 16 is sitting at 2.5k words. There's actually more work than that gone into it. I also created a character list for Mitchell Westfield (Shawna's assistant at the WFAA weather office) and his teammates. The fact that I was watching Battlebots on MAX has absolutely no bearing on why I ...
