the ramble dump

Right, a general where-things-are-at update for today...

The equivocal Project CAM is now moving foward at a good speed after a newsgroup was set up for the five of us to post ideas and sort things out, which seemed to get things going.

I also set up one for Gnome Milk. I still need to upload all the old versions of the first few chapters of Agaffa ready for drastic editing, and then everything will be in one handy place. Whether or not this will encourage any significant activity remains to be seen.

I've nearly finished the first part of Starcustard Chapter 5. (I'll get typed that up and send it to you during the week, Melia.) That means I'll be able to scribble out the first of my priorities for this month. Then I can get to work on The Aberration Chapter 2 and City of Anarchy Chapter 3. Woot.

Things to do this October (starting with the biggest priorities):

• Finish the first bit of Starcustard Chapter 5.


• Make a proper start on the Chapter 2 rewrite of The Aberration.


• Get some ideas for Project CAM down in ink.


• Write City of Anarchy Chapter 3.

Lots of good stuff for you today (I was intending to get this posted on Friday, but... well, it's still Friday in Official Chris Time).

To start of with...




...some Starcustard concept art of Hepthazard, the spacestation. It is very, very big.

Amelia has also sent me some nice ideas for the Fat Man site design. We've discussed a few things and have come up with some neat stuff that will hopefully be possible, but we don't know yet.

Secondly, the first two chapters of City of Anarchy, with Chapter 2 being brand-spanking new. I know it's a little on the short side, but it's been a big last-minute rush to get everything finished for this update. I meant to get some of it done earlier on in the week, but after I've finished all my schoolwork, I'm always too tired to do anything else.

Now... this next thing is what this update is really all about. I've talked about it so very much, and now it's finally time for you to actually read the first bit of it.

I present to you... the NEW... The Aberration Chapter One: The Tramp.

All improved and refreshed. :) I think the old Kommingle version is still up if you feel like comparing the two.

DeviantArt will be where I post any updates of my independant projects until the site is launched.

And to finish off this rather spectacular update (by my standards, at least)... an announcement.

I will be teaming up with Holly Heuser, Michael Achtzehn, Sam Draxler and Amelia 'Aliens' Chesley to bring you the ambiguously named... Project CAM. All that remains to be said is: watch this space.
