the ramble dump

TA Chapter 5 now ends how I originally intended it to. I ended up leaving it at a bit of a stupid point because I was running out of time, but wanted to get it online anyway. 'I've come this far...' sort of thing.

Yesterday was a good day. A very good day. Probably the most productive day I've had since FMIT was conceived. I was writing from 11AM to 7PM with only a few short breaks! And then we went out for a meal, something which I didn't find out about until about four o'clock, so the time I had left was unexpectedly shortened. Then, when we got back, I got straight to work again before getting on the computer to type up and package everything. And, even though Chapter 5 was cut short, I managed to get everything besides the blog post done before midnight (I had to make a placeholder for that).

I was considering a Day 4 on Thursday night, just to extend my deadline. I'd only done about a page of Chapter 3 when I gave up on it and played some Halo 2. Which, may I add, did wonders, and by the time I went to bed I was feeling confident I could get it all done. I HAD THE STAMINA!!

So... today I keep feeling like I should be doing something, and have to keep reminding myself that I don't have to. There are still some minor loose ends to sort out, but they can be done at a nice, leisurely pace; and yeah, I have homework, but who ever does homework these days?

And now: a short hiatus. Not for too long, because, as Melia pointed out, the site is in a constant state of launch, but just enough to let off some steam. I'm really tired. And I might do some other stuff before I go back to writing. I have lots of ideas for drawings, and the sketchbook is looking pretty miserable.

Anyway, as all the different characters reach precarious points in their various adventures, I hope that you're interested enough to want to check back every now and then, to see what happens next.

My desk is covered with piles of paper. I'll probably need to sort that out at some point. Things keep sliding off.
