I am finally finished with the first draft of the first book of the trilogy. I will start on the second book immediately, but I have no plans to power through it like I did with the first book (as I will be simultaneously writing the second and editing the first.)

I do plan on focusing more on my photography now though. I may also work on some pixelling at some point, since that really does not take up much of my time.

Well, I am almost finished the first book. I have one more chapter to write and the first draft will be completed. Then, the pain of rewrites and editing takes place. With any luck, it won't be too painful a task.

The book is taking up all my time, however, so I haven't really had time to work on anything else. My fingers are itching to practice some wet plate, but I don't know when that will take place. More than likely, it will be after this first book is completely finished; I will take a break before writing book ii and work on photography for a bit, I think.

I am making relatively good progress on my novel. I am just about to hit page 200 and I am halfway through chapter 12.

I am envisioning it as one physical book, broken up into three sections, named books with their own individual titles. So, at this point, I am about 2/3 of the way through the first "book" in the novel.

With luck and perseverance, the book should be finished by August and ready to go to my proofreader by August 15th and my Editor by September 1st. Wish me luck!

Side Note: The title of this post, out of context, amuses me.
