Little hiccup - (news)
🕑 Added 2018-01-21 17:06:12 +0000 UTC Hey all!Thank you for your patience. I've written, deleted, and rewritten the last chapter 4 times now. I just can't get the right tone. For those that follow my author workshops, sometimes getting dialogue tone right between characters can make or break your book.
Writing Henry/Jason interactions are easy for me now because their characters are so well established. Nora is a little different. To stay consistent, I really need to figure out not only a character's future, but their past as well.
Writing is hard. :*(
I'm hoping to have at least one, maybe two chapters to post today, though.
Luckily, I am not sick anymore. This is why I've been slowly making back lost time. The struggle is real.
In other news, I am forming a business entity to deal with contracts better. This is taking time and money to do. However, this will mean that I can truly get more stories out for everyone this year!
Lastly, I have started a side project. For those who don't know, the admins and I at GameLit Society noticed that there is not really a good website to find new GameLit fiction. Well, we're going to make one. Books will be easily to sift with tags, and we will link to blogs and reviews like from Ramon Majia. The Patreon I set up for that is here:

2018 has already been really exciting so far. I have lots of things in the works to share with you soon, so stay tuned!

That is an excellent suggestion. I will keep it in mind. Luckily, this chapter is almost done now (finally).

Just a comment - but if you have a chapter tone issue, maybe you need to bounce it off a few people and see their input on it? Maybe one of your readers can notice what you might be getting "wrong" (maybe not the best word for this...) with that for a chapter.

Pretty much my thoughts as well. I'm not wanting to sink tons of money into the thing until we have a proof of concept and at least a year of history.

Making a site can be easy and cheap to expensive and hard as fuck. I would suggest starting with Ghost, or WordPress or Squarespace (or similar). You aren't making something that requires an extraordinarily backend. I think contractors are like, "fuck yeah, I'll do this site in Laravel or nodejs and will rock the clients socks off!" When really, you'd probably be happy with WordPress and a few existing plugins that need to be customized a bit.

Sweet, thanks for the hard work. I think I got yer cold.
