| Clarion West Write-a-Thon, Chapters 4 & 5 done |
[Jul. 22nd, 2009|05:19 pm] |
Those of you with energy and alertness to notice details only relevant to other people (I know such people exist despite never having been one of them) may note that I never posted a 'done' post for Chapter 4 or a 'due' post for Chapter 5. You may also note that I've been quiet a looong time and am now considerably (woefully, agonisingly) behind.
Chapter 4 did go out, 3 days late or so, and Chapter 5 is done today, just, um, let me work this out, 11 days late.
Excuses? Nothing worth your time.
Chapter 6 was due on the 15th, meaning that nags, bothers and kicks-up-the-bum for Ch 6 are already worth $7 a go.
Chapter 5 is a 20k monster, so reads for Ch 5 will earn the Write-a-Thon $10.
Tally: $60 |

| Write-a-Thon: Chapter Three out, come in Chapter Four... |
[Jul. 5th, 2009|01:53 pm] |
My first missed deadline was Friday. I hang my head in shame. However, the good news is that my desperate whining produced some extra encouragement and a bump in my pledges to the Write-a-Thon.
Chapter Three is now out the door - as ever, please let me know if you have time to read this, or any earlier chapters. Each chapter read earns $5 for Clarion West, and Chapter Three earns a triple-shot venti $15.
Once again I've had to push a section of this chapter over into the next chapter, for reasons of length and weight. It looks like I'm going to wind up with more than ten chapters, unless I can start cutting the text harder than I'm managing at the moment.
Chapter Four is due on Tuesday 7th July. This is now the chapter in which Shelley storms the Majestic Hotel, is implanted with Underground technology, and has to make a decison about where her loyalties really lie.
Tally: $41 |
