back to part 42

At long last, I have defeated the evil illustrations! I mean, they're pretty cruddy illustrations, but we all knew they were going to be cruddy, so what the heck. I would like to get this episode wrapped up by the end of October, after which I will throw the floor open to suggestions for the next episode.

(Yes, I know I said this section was going to be Aradia's POV. I lied. *angelic smile*)

*dusts hands, puts away art supplies*

I did some scene and POV breakdowns for the rest of the story and decided to put the chapter break between parts 40 and 41. So, without further ado...

Chapter 9: Shatterpoint is up on AO3!

Now I'm gonna see if I can get part 42 written tonight. :-)

back to part 39

I think I am going to end up splitting the chapter, but I'm not quite sure if I want to do it between parts 39 and 40, or between parts 40 and 41. Things will probably become clearer after I write part 41, which I will do tomorrow night.

In the meantime, please enjoy part 40. :-)

Okay, I need sleep now.

Hmm. I still feel reasonably awake. I should go look through the full list of NFE prompts and see if I can dash off a quick Madness Round ficlet. Or maybe I should start sorting through my Yuletide signup options. Oh, decisions, decisions...

But first, chocolate ice cream. It is not always time for ice cream, but it IS always time for chocolate, and right now ice cream is not inappropriate either. :-)

It is nothing short of amazing how much better I feel and faster I write when I'm getting at least eight hours of sleep per day. Absolutely straight-up amazing. I must continue this streak of sensible life choices.

In other news, this weekend is the 31st Apple Harvest Festival -- hurrah for fall traditions that are carrying on despite logistical oddities caused by the renovation of the Commons. (Normally all municipal festivals are held on the Commons -- a three block pedestrian-only zone in the center of town -- but that's impossible this year and next year since that area is currently a massive construction site.) I bought a bottle of wine and a bottle of hard cider, and I think tomorrow between church and work I may see if I can find somebody selling fudge. Failing that, I will buy funnel cake, because funnel cake is delicious and terrible for me and I only get it maybe twice a year, so I enjoy the hell out of the indulgence when I can. :-)
