Thursday AGAIN?
Jan. 27th, 2011 04:03 pmNews For Today
As I mentioned briefly on Twitter yesterday, I'm going to a Monday and Friday update schedule for MU for the time being. My plan had been to figure out how many chapters I could do in a week consistently and then have the update schedule be one chapter fewer than that so I'd build up a backlog as I went, but as so often happens I got distracted by thoughts of what I should be able to do and ignored what reality was telling me I was able to. Multiple weeks in a row of writing three good chapters on a timely basis should have told me that this, at the present time, is my limit, but I kept thinking that if I managed three last week, I should be able to do four this week and therefore three should be my production schedule.
So for now it's going to be Monday and Friday. If I find myself writing more and building up a huge backlog, then I'll revisit the schedule.
One of my dreams last night involved the Daughters of the Moon festival in Tennessee, which made me sad upon waking because I'm pretty sure I'm not going to be able to afford to go back there this year. Being in a long-distance relationship means I have to prioritize my travel monies a little differently, and it's more important that I make it to WisCon in May.
Personal Assessment
I slept pretty well last night. Nothing much else to say.
Dreams From Last Night
Numerous. The most memorable of them involved a big MMO-y style fight against an evil overlord type and his bone dragon in a tavern. The whole thing had a very strong video game feel... there was a strong sense that the tavern was meant to be a safe place, and the evil overlord had violated some fundamental rules of reality by appearing there in the first place.

Okay, this is not my usual indie shilling here, and it's probably old news to most people, but since I just found about it yesterday, I'm going to make sure that everyone out there knows about the audio streaming site Grooveshark. It's a great way to check out music, and to set up playlists that you can bring down from the cloud at any web-capable computer. There's a mobile version that costs money, but it's free to use from a PC.
Plans For Today
Write a chapter of Tales of MU that will go up tomorrow.
