    Doesn't it feel good when you're all caught up?

    Yep, ch.s 9-14 was a hard section for me to story board. I needed to do it all at once to make sure it stayed consistant. Now I don't have anything to post this :-(

    Ask me that in 2017. I should be caught up by then.

    You've done well Exuro to get to this point. Don't go slacking now...

    uuhg, hit a point where I think everything I write sounds like crap. Just going to slog through getting the next chapter written, then hope I find inspiration while revising. Hopefully this means I'm close to leveling up my writing skillz, unfortunately I disabled my UI so  there's no telling.

    Fixed a broken link.An odd problem, I'd been copying and pasting the link from the previous chapter to make the next line and picked up some garbage code at some point. It kept multiplying with each pasted chapter til ch17 when whole pages of garbage code were being copied and finally broke the link. So remember boy and girls to check the html tab occasionally and keep that code pretty.

    Shame about the link Exuro but at least you are sorted now. Glad to see you have shaken off the December writing block.

    It was quite the shock looking at the code, but easy to pick out what needed to be deleted. Bypassed the block, now I just need more time. I still haven't found the UI toggles or console commands for life yet though :-(

    Finished the 1st draft of Chapter 20 (still needs a lot of editing), which will also be the end of Arc II I wasn't sure if I was going to keep the arc formatting and just have Arc II go on indefinitely, but the way this chapter turned out, it feels natural to start the next chapter as part of a new arc.

    I usually don't go into much detail on what the characters physically look like (sometimes none at all), so I was wondering how that has affected you as reader. Do you have trouble visualizing them? Have you read something later on that overhauls your first image of them? What do they look like to you?

    You're doing fine with the description, though one that made me chuckle was Trebonde and Tyranus' spar. Amari watching two sweaty, muscled guys duking it out. It didn't change my view of them, but I found it amusing. You did describe their physiques, which even I do. 

    That's a thing I like about your description, when you do describe, you tend to do the body as well, and your bodies tend to have more variation.
