It’s my weekly Scrum style standup for my audience, so where am I?

So what have I done the last week?

  • “A Bridge To The Quiet Planet”: Chapter 8 is done and edited.  This is a big one as it’s the halfway point in the book and transitions to the next arc.  It’s a bit of a tricky one as our cast is busy scheming and deceiving, while paying off a favor.
  • Way With Worlds Minibook #4: Publicity is prepared and ready to go.
  • Blog: I’ve queued up a few more posts.
  • Seventh Sanctum: Enjoy the Junker generator in honor of Overwatch’s latest level.
  • General: Been trying to relax a bit more, and had a great time.

What am I going to do this week:

  • Way With Worlds Minibook #4: Launches this week!  Stay tuned!
  • “A Bridge To The Quiet Planet:” I’m going to be doing a general edit this week to work all my notes and ideas into the current story and the plot outline.
  • Other: Gearing up for next month – which is gonna be a busy one.  I also think I need to diversify my blogging – I haven’t done a lot of career stuff lately too.

It’s my weekly Scrum style standup for my audience, so where am I?

First, late.  Sorry team.

So what have I done the last week?

  • “A Bridge To The Quiet Planet”: Chapter 7 is about done, it just needs editing..  It’s a pretty critical one as it moves things on from the 40% mark forward – and sets things up for a massive amount of actions and reveals as the crew heads to the world of Lindhaem.
  • Way With Worlds Minibook #4: All formatted and ready.  Just have to do publicity and such.
  • Art: Continuing my cover art work. now on my tumblr.  My latest have been Overwatched themed.
  • Blog: Got more queued up.  I may start mixing it up more – I realized I haven’t career blogged in awhile as I got focused on my fiction projects!
  • General: Lots of chores, marketing stuff, and more.

What am I going to do this week:

  • Way With Worlds Minibook #4: I might do publicity setup for it, but I can wait.
  • “A Bridge To The Quiet Planet:” Editing Chapter 7 and getting it ready, moving to chapter 8.
  • Seventh Sanctum: I have an idea for a new generator – well a new idea, I had another in the works.  Let’s see which one I get to first . . . I do at least want to map some data.
  • Other: Got a lot of events and a friend moving, so that may occupy a lot of time.

It’s my weekly Scrum style standup for my audience, so where am I?

So what have I done the last week?

  • “A Bridge To The Quiet Planet”:Chapter 6 is out.  Chapter 7 is being written and is a probably about 2/5 done already – big revelations here when the characters look back on history – and character development as one has to ask just what his goddess is up to.
  • Way With Worlds Minibook #4: I thought I’d take a break.  I didn’t – the cover is done and I edited it.  So I may be ahead of the game.
  • Art: Did more practice cover art that’s now on my tumblr.  This’ll be good because if my fiction takes off, I may do short stories as well and this practice should let me do quality covers.
  • General: Mostly crashed and saw my girlfriend.

What am I going to do this week:

  • Way With Worlds Minibook #4: I will probably format this, as weekend after next is busy.  But I can probably let it slide.
  • “A Bridge To The Quiet Planet:” Pretty much keeping at it.  I may finish Chapter 7 but am not sure.
  • Other: Got a lot of club meetings this week including a writer’s group.

Challenges:

  • Had a bad allergy attack last week and it wore me down.  Though I was productive (hey, what else was I going to do?) I’m keeping an eye on it based on previous experience.
