New Characters!
I haven’t posted anything here for far too long, but this was good news so here I am.
The beginning of my novel series has changed again, for the better, and as a result I have a more solid and a much longer lasting and interesting plot. Which has given birth to two new characters who help with the flow of the overall story.
Progress has been made and damn, it feels good!

First re-write of the short story ‘Blood-Stained God’ completed. Taking a break from it for a bit and then jump back into it to see what else needs to be cut, edited, etc.

Progress
SO! My last post was about my procrastination and since then, I got some writing done. Found out some interesting things about my story, changed names (AGAIN), changed character backgrounds (AGAIN!), and also changed and revised and narrowed down my plot (AGAIN!!) into what is a more comprehensible blob of information for the first book of the series.
Much better. The only distraction was my...
Procrastination
So, in the time that I could have been writing more words in my novel series, I have managed to sign up on another social blog network, watch countless episodes of Family Guy, and B.Scott; read other blogs about procrastination, throw things into the microwave and google just about everything that popped into my mind. And even now, write an entry on my procrastination.
Lovely.
