Story Schedule Updates
Hey all! This is a new topic in which you post how your story writing and posting is going to work regarding the readers. I'll post mine now.
I've recently started a new story, am developing another new story, and have decided to revamp an old idea of mine I got 4 chapters in. Also, an old favorite is going into an official temporary close.
First off, regarding Strings. On both Fanfiction.net and Runouw.com, it's been a nice hit, getting great reviews. A fanfiction revolving around Luigi, it follows said character, Snake, Meta Knight and a mysterious harpist as they fight to stop a new evil. A simple concept, that, I'd like to say, is done well. I will be updating this roughly every week, perhaps more often if my muses allow. The story itself will take up about 15 to 20 well-sized chapters, so it should be finished at the end of Summer at the latest.
Second, as I have mentioned a few times, I am currently producing the layout and first chapter of a new forum story, The Rebel Warriors (Title Pending). The story will follow MessengerOfDreams (myself, yes), AnimalLover, two original characters, and Myst as the warriors, and Geoff, an 18 year old who has absolutely no memory of the past year who was found in a recently abandoned enemy hospital the Warriors raided. During that past year, in the vast internet world, Pokefarm has taken over Runouw.Com and it is now completely in Kolink's control (based on a passing rumor that she was trying to sue Runouw.com). Fighting has mostly stopped but MoD's group of the Rebel Warriors is one of many small guerrilla groups trying to win back freedom for Runouw. The staff, save for MoD, has gone missing, and MoD says that once a moderator, global moderator, level moderator, user represenative, honorary member, chat moderator and the admin, Runouw himself, all are together, they can access a secret room in which an object known as "The Plot Device" will bring a solution to the war, and was kept for emergencies by Runouw himself. The Rebel Warriors must find all the necessary staff in order to obtain this device, and the end of the war.
This is going to be sort of a sandbox story for me-to test different ideas, characters and other such things. So this will be updated on my own time-not on a schedule. Rest assured, it will be epic still.
And as for the resurrected story, I am glad to announce that since I am thinking about my future and stuff, and what story of mine, started, finished or not, I wanted to work on or submit to a publisher, I decided that I was going to complete Daily, my story from spring of 2010. I decided this because I thought it'd be simplest to complete, but a very good story to have as my introduction work. Also, it's a bit sentimental. I didn't ever mention this, but this was my first idea I ever took seriously-or at least fragments of it were. David Domingo, back when I was 11 or 12, was my first main character ever, and Isabel my first ever villain. My story was by no means great or anywhere near, but it was 4 years later I decided to actually do something big with it. (Extra Tidbit-The Replenishers was established somewhere after-but I will not be pursuing that idea any longer.)
For those of you who have never read it, 1) Do so. Now and 2) It follows police officer David Domingo, a native of a town originated as a Sanctum for loyal and dedicated Christians but has since been populated mostly by other people of different religions or dedication level to religion. A police officer in the city, misnomered as Project City, is usually something you'd never see, since the town stays remarkably crime-free, but over the past decade, a serial killer, Isabel Dion, has brought a horrific yet time-oriented wave of crime every 5 years and establishing light crime around the city at other times. Dion has murdered one of the Christians every day-same way of death, same place. One of these victims was David's wife. She's only been caught once, and escaped immediately after despite heavy injuries. But when one day a new killer strikes in town, David is forced to work with the one person he hates most-Isabel.
Now this was going smoothly, but right around the time I was fading out of my own religion *wave of R.E.M. jokes hits me* Great. Now I'm an emo. *is shot* I'm glad I did it, but it was a painful process, and I wanted nothing to do with religion, so I left Daily alone. I looked back recently and realized I totally had no dead ends in the story and had a clear path to the finish line. I want to complete it.
But this will be updated less often than other stories. I want to make sure I have each chapter perfect. This will most likely be updated bi-weekly, but should have around 12 or 13 chapters, so it, too, should be finished during Summer (I have completed 4 chapters so far, although those will be touched up, too.)
As for stories I will be putting on hold, I am sad to say that Legacy will be put on hold for an undetermined amount of time. I've hit sort of a dead end to it and want to focus on my other stories. This will be completed, even if just for the forum, due to the massive popularity and critical reception of it but probably not till Summer/Fall.
As for The Runouw Connection, a story I long said I published, in the long term the story will be completely renovated as Double Life. It will follow the same premise, but with a completely different plot structure. It may or not take place on Runouw.Com, and will most likely start late in the year. Be warned-this will be an insanely long term project. It may not be finished in most of your forum lives. (or before 2012 for that matter. XD)
And on a finishing note, my first fanfiction, Words and Action, has gotten massive praise on Fanfiction.net, and I get a lot of people telling it's gonna either place or win. Sadly, here on Runouw, I've gotten one review. (Also glowing.) Check it out today! Pledge your support! Read it here- the copy on the site has a massive chunk missing that I added on to the fanfiction version where Falco and Peach star instead of human characters. But comment and review here.
Well, that's my schedule. Feel free to comment with questions and post your own update schedules.
Cheers!
