Further Extra Special Bonus Preview Time!

So, good news: my writing mojo has returned! Bad news: not in time to get an extra chapter under the hood for this week! Good news? You get to see the second half of the (still unfinished) space combat fic! 

Content Warning: The Terran half of this continues to be mili...

Extra Special Bonus Preview Time!!

Hey! Hey! Guess what?! I ran out my buffer entirely! It finally happened! 

By way of a mea culpa, instead of a preview of next week's chapter of The Floret in the Mirror, you get an excerpt of like length from a fic I've been writing off and on for over a year at this point. S...

The Floret in the Mirror Chapter 10 Draft Excerpt

Hey y'all. So, good news, bad news. Bad news, I don't have a finished chapter due to the various factors I mentioned last week. Good news, I have, I dunno, about half a chapter that I can post, and it's more or less a complete scene, so you don't go totally without.

The Floret in the Mirror Chapter 9 Draft Preview - "System Partition"

Hey all! Still on the content treadmill here, plus finishing up some freelance work on the side — hopefully that won't interfere with my uploading things on time, but if it comes to that, I'll let y'all know. I doubt it'd result in more than a single-week hiatus, but obviously I'd like to avoid...

The Floret in the Mirror Chapter 7 Advance Draft - "Handshake Signals"

Okay, back on schedule!! This week's chapter may well change significantly in the next week or so, so don't get too used to how it looks right now, but that's the nature of seeing things less far along in the process of being written and edited — as outlined, this chapter did a lo...

Floret in the Mirror Chapter Six Draft Preview - "Halting Problem"

HOO BOY. 

You know how life finds a way? Yeah. Sometimes life finds a way to really mess up your schedule. Hence why this post is coming in two days late. Sorry, y'all. You're getting a hot-off-the-presses draft this week, which means it's probably gonna be draftier than normal, so min...

The Floret in the Mirror, Draft Preview - Chapter 5 -

Hello, y'all! Time for another draft preview, and the beginning of (finally) getting into the intended cadence of the story, alternating chapter-for-chapter between Jess and, well, Jess. (I'm also running up against my buffer — the trip really took a toll on it — but worry not, I should ...

The Floret in the Mirror, Draft Preview - Chapter 4 - LookingGlass.exe

Greetings from not-that-sunny [REDACTED], where I am holed up and watching my chapter buffer slowly tick away while I turn my attention to other things (such as fun new allergic reactions). Today, our draft preview concludes Digital Jess's tutorial with a bit more extreme lewdness and a whole lot...

The Floret in the Mirror - Advance Draft Chapter 3

Hey folks. I am writing this a day ahead of time, so forgive me if I'm a little perfunctory about it. Y'all ready to shift perspective? Because I just wrote a whole-ass 100k word story without a perspective shift and let me tell you, I love me some perspective shifts, so buckle up and get ready t...

The Floret in the Mirror Draft Preview - Chapter 2

Welp, I've posted the first chapter publicly. Committed now. ;) 

Chapter 2 picks up right where Chapter 1 left off - mostly because this all used to be Chapter 1 and it just got too long. Once things settle down I do want to trade off chapters between Jess and... well, you'll see. ^^&n...

The Floret in the Mirror, Draft Preview - Chapter 1 - "Deja Vu"

Hey, friends. Been a hot minute, hasn't it? I've been plugging away the last couple of weeks at The Floret in the Mirror, and I've got a decent lead built up, so I'm going to start releasing it publicly starting next week — and you know what that means! That's right, you get a sne...

Sui Generis Chapter 25 Draft

The final chapter. It's always bittersweet, ending a story and knowing you may not ever get to come back to these characters that you've spent months getting to know as intimately as possible. Stories need an ending, though. Endings give closure, give meaning, give structure to what came before.&...

Sui Generis Chapter 24 Draft

Greetings! I actually remembered that I update on Saturday this week! 

This week's preview chapter is a bit short — I sat down, wrote this in almost a single sitting, and then realized I'd said everything I needed to say in this chapter. I'm honestly not sure what I'm going to do wit...

Sui Generis Chapter 23 Draft

Oops. 

So, I have been sleeping really poorly this last week, and uh, I kinda lost an entire day in there. Mea culpa, y'all — I'm trying to keep to a pretty firm schedule here, I promise! 

In any case, we continue to close in on the conclusion of Sui Generis!...

Sui Generis Chapter 22 Draft

Y'all, we are getting so close to the end here. Four chapters left, including this one, assuming I don't pair up one of them with one of the others and make an extra large chapter because it's very, very short. But that's a concern for another day — right now, it's Sui Generis...

Sui Generis Chapter 21 Draft

It's Saturday, and we've only got five more of these left, y'all! Inclusive of today! Wild, isn't it? Pretty soon you're gonna be getting draft chapters of completely different characters doing completely different... well, not completely different things, anyway.

Sui Generis Chapter 20 Draft

Once more, it's advance draft time, this one with an actual bit of a hole left in it that I still need to fill — but that's a problem for Tomorrow Kana (or, more likely, Next Week Kana). Today, apart from other commitments, I'm going to try to get to draft completion on Sui Generis. Ye...

Sui Generis Chapter 19 Draft

Hey, y'all — it's Saturday and it's a million degrees outside. What better time for a little bit of advance HDG fic? 

In other news: I'm getting very close to text-complete on Sui Generis. Pretty soon (with any luck), I hope to be done outlining the novel I'm working on, so ...

Ha ha oops. My brain got scrambled by a heat wave and I forgot today was update day! Mea culpa, y'all. It is, in fact, Saturday, and that means it's time for a new advance Sui Generis draft!

Hey y'all, it's Saturday, which means it's time for a new advance draft of Sui Generis! Ah, but wait, this week's draft preview is different! How so? Well, what you're about to read is actually one of the first chapters I wrote for this story, despite coming in somewhere around the middl...

Sui Generis Chapter 15 Draft

Guess what, y'all? It's time for the advance look at next week's chapter of Sui Generis, and this one's a doozy. Not only is it a good bit longer than the usual chapter, it's also much, much lewder, with some good old-fashioned on-screen Affini/floret filth. I love my job. ...

Sui Generis Ch. 12

It's that time again — chapter 11 has gone up on AO3, so here's the draft of chapter 12! This one's in pretty good shape even just as a draft, probably because this is a scene I've spent a lot of time thinking about beforehand. As a result, it just sort of fell out of my head and onto the paper...

Sui Generis - Chapter 11 Draft

Hey folks. Still sorting out how I'm going to handle drafts — ideally, what I'd like to do is add some markup to them to show my thoughts about it and what changes I'm thinking about making in the final — but for now I think I'm going to just post them directly in text posts like this on...
