Update Link: Chain Reaction – Part 46

It has been a very annoying week, lol, and it’s only Wednesday. Feels like the kids packed in five days of nonsense in 2.5 days.

Apologies for no updates the last few days — on Sunday, I fell asleep at like 5:30 and didn’t wake up until after I was supposed to have started to write. Then Monday night, I ended up only sleeping like 3 hours. By the time I got home from work, I was dragging really hard. I went to bed early and got eight hours, so I feel a lot better.

I’ll be updating tonight (obviously) and then tomorrow morning, so Chain Reaction should be wrapping up unless something goes off the rails (you never know). I’m not quite ready with the flash fiction series I was planning to launch this weekend, so for the time being, Masquerade will slot into the Tues/Thurs slot. I had a great breakthrough for the middle part of the story so I’m looking forward to updating that more (still with the option to write for 60-90 minutes).

I made huge strides in Hours, Book 2 – for most of October and November, the beta draft has felt like it’s dragged, but in the last week, I’ve managed to get it to the point where I’ll still have it out in December (though Dec 17 is, uh, pushing it). I’ll be able to make some firmer date choices after this break because my plan (dream) is to finish the draft by Sunday.

I actually have most of my next two weeks of classes prepped already — all I need to do is my slides, and I can do a little bit each day over the next four days. That’s really great for my evenings — more time for writing! And I’m caught up with grading. All good things.

See you tomorrow morning/afternoon. I plan to start writing around 11, and post at 12 PM.

Happy Thanksgiving!
