Weekly Update: 9/6

Welcome back!

Or... Given that I'm the one who's been away, maybe you're the ones welcoming me back?

IDK. Life is weird. Behold, a look at what I've been up to and what I plan to do this next week!

This week:

- TEQ Volume 3: Creatures of Darkness: Desolation (Chapter 44)

Behind the Scenes:
- If you're a close follower of these updates, it was likely glaringly obvious that I was gone last Friday. Without going into too many details, there were some minor health issues that required attention, leaving me unable to type up my normal post. However, that has all been thankfully taken care of, and I can move forward from there!
The last two weeks have been fairly par for the course as of late. Extreme overtime at my day job, so on and so forth. However, I've still managed to get a decent amount done. I'm now halfway through Chapter 60 of TEQ, so I'm super stoked for that!!! Beyond drafting TEQ, I've been spending most of my time editing. Glyphrunners has been a primary focus, along with... Apocolyps Squad II!!! I won't go into many details right this moment, but expect a massive announcement coming mid-next week!

Next week:

- TEQ Appendix D: Blood Moon Rising: Realm of Blood (Chapter 45)

Behind the Scenes:
- I can't say too much without ruining the coming announcement, but suffice it to say that Apocolyps Squad is far and away my primary focus for this next week. Depending on exactly how all that goes, I might switch back to TEQ, working on wrapping up the last little bit of Volume 4.
While I'm talking about TEQ, I do have some thoughts that I'd like to share. I'm considering changing up the format of the volumes a bit, based on feedback that a few of you have sent me. For starters, I don't think I'm going to include any appendices with Volume 4, since it is a conclusion of sorts. I also think I'm going to crank the number of chapters per volume back down to 8 instead of 12, and only include one appendix per volume. One of the common complaints that I've been receiving is that the story is too slow-paced, and I think that making these changes will help combat that effect, forcing me to be a bit more concise with my writings. 

And... That pretty much sums that up! I'd love to hear your thoughts on the proposed changes, if you think that would make things better or worse. Just let me know!

Until next time!
