Poll is officially closed, and the results are in.
I'm getting back to work on Aestelle Nocte, Chapter 4 (Part 2) now.
I've got a few more scenes to get through before the shower scene, but once I do the chapter will be ready for release.

I've gotten a head-start on the revisions for Chapter 5 of Duskfall while I wait for the poll for Aestelle Nocte's Chapter 4.2 to close.
What I can say for now, is that Chapter 5 focuses heavily on Morrigan, with secondary focus on Bel's activities as they return to Saphria to begin carrying out Lucius' plan, but Morrigan has her own ideas...

As a bit of a teaser for Chapter 4, part 2. I will be including the first shared shower-scene of the story in that chapter, and has a total wordcount of 3,215 words. It's already written, ready to go, and based on my beta-reader feedback, "Steamy as hell without being too much."

Duskfall Chapter 4.2 has been released.
This is the second half of the climax of Duskfall's first story arc.
Chapter 5 (to be released later this month if all goes well) is the transitional chapter into the second story arc of Volume 1.

Popping in over here for another weekly update.
Aestelle Nocte - Chapter 4 is coming along quite well. I've finished writing up the shower scene, and now just need to finish writing up the rest of the chapter leading up to it.

In a good mood right now, and full of energy so I'm going to write some spice for Aestelle Nocte.
To put it in perspective... I haven't even gotten to the "good stuff" yet, and it's already sitting at 2300 words.
The "good stuff" is coming up next though.

Finally over Covid.
Back to my usual self, and diving full-speed into the writing.
I should have Chapter 3 of Aestelle Nocte released by this afternoon at this rate.

Was finally able to reconnect to the SH forum. Was getting a Connection Timed Out error until only a little while ago.

Still feeling pretty worn down over here, but I'm going to try and get some work done on Aestelle Nocte later today. Might manage a sprint or two.

Just tested again, and the results were positive for Covid.
Can't say I'm surprised, but it does explain why this cold has been as bad as it was.
Starting on an additional regimen of paxlovid tomorrow, and that should help reduce the symptoms as well.

Ugh...
This cold is really kicking my ass.
Still feeling like shit, but haven't tested positive for covid yet. (I have been exposed, so this could very well still be the early stages of covid... again).
All of my writing is on hold for the time being, until I can concentrate for more than a couple of minutes on the words in front of me.

Alright. Time to get to work on my writing sprints.
40/10 for those who're curious. - Write for 40 minutes, take a 10 minute break, rinse and repeat.
The goal today is ~2,000 words. If I can manage that, great. If I can manage more, even better. [3000 / 5000]
