Chapter 5 is finished
Chapter 5 of my writing project is finished. Two more chapters to go. Chapter 6 is simple, and chapter 7 is quite short. I need to pull together some maps for Chapter 6 and set up a new word document to work in.
I have edited the 1st 4 chapters, and my wife has re-edited the first 2.
An internet friend of mine who is a very experienced and skilled GM has graciously agreed to skim the first few chapters as time allows. He's a busy fellow and what I've written is long, so I am thrilled that he will take a peak. He's got a copy of the 1st four chapters. I'm guessing it will be a few months or longer before he can skim them, but I am very appreciative of his time and willingness to look it over.
I don't know if anyone will read or play what I've written. I've questioned weather I will finish it or not. Given that there are only two chapters to go, I feel a sense of accomplishment and renewed energy for the project.
Onward!

It's a awesome feeling when you see the finish line and once again start to believe that it's really possible to reach it.
ReplyDeleteI'm always like: First I belive that everything is possible. Then I think about it and everything is impossible. Then I give it a go but don't really thing it will turn out well. And I plunge on...
The benefit of that process is the rush of satisfaction when I discover that it really may be possible to reach goal.
Take care and good luck with the two last chapters!
Thank you sir. I am chugging away. I'm taking a moment to do a few other things today, but have a good opportunity to dig in on Chapter 6 today. We'll see what happens.
ReplyDeleteCheers!
I echo Amraphael's comments. No matter what the project is, writing a book, designing a module (pen and paper or computer), the task always feels a) A simple idea at first b) I've bitten off more than I thought I could handle. c) Oh, it's not that bad. d) Yes it is. e) No, I actually can do this. f) I did it!
ReplyDeleteOne thing I would do, is once finished, sit on it for a month and then go and look at it afresh. You can often see where it lacks substance when doing this and can flesh out areas that are not quite right.
