I have been writing for the past few days, during my break. Getting enough backup chapters for both DC: Don't Utter A Word and Marvel: Gamer Path.
But that's not the only thing I have done this past few days.
As I was working on DC and Marvel, an idea for a new project came to mind, one that I intended to push for later, alas for those that enjoy writing it may not come as a surprise that the longer I tried to ignore the idea, the more it fascinated, it got to the point I wrote over 27 chapters in less than a week.
And I don't mean... small chapters. I mean, big chunky chapters, between 2000-3000 words each.
Surprisingly, working with that new idea pushed my head out of my creative block, which had been the reason I hadn't been able to update as much, both for Marvel, and as of lately, DC.
Just today I wrote five chapters for DC alone. Each one being around 2000 words. I now find myself writing bigger and bigger chapters, so that's good for those that have always been looking for larger chapters.
Now, the questions you might be asking.
**Corn, if you are working on a third idea/project, what does that mean for the novels you are updating on and off?
------ Well, the answer to that is rather simple, and complicated at the same time so bear with me for a moment. Unlike Marvel, DC is almost ending, there's one arc left after the one you guys currently are in, and after that, well, the novel will be completed.
Marvel on the other hand is farther away from the ending than that. I would say for Marvel we are at... 2 to 3 arcs away from reaching the finale. It's leaning towards two arcs more than three seeing I might just integrate one of the arcs into another seeing both touch similar subjects and goals.
Now, what does this mean as far as updates go?
I pondered about that for a bit. And came to the following conclusion.
I will wait all of March to... stack enough chapters for Marver: Gamer Math, in order to start a weekly schedule with that one, seeing I'm currently beginning to update the former on Paaaatreon once a week.
As for DC: Don't Utter A Word. I was considering on doing the same, but starting now with a weekly update that could grow into more based on public polls and how many chapters I had stacked.
For example, if I had 40 chapters or more, I have no problem posting ten in a single day just to satiate your chapter thirst. I'm not near forty, but I feel I will reach that within the next month or the following.
**But corn? Does that mean you will stop daily updates as a whole?
------ No, this is where my new project the one that basically healed me from the author's block, comes into view. While it's true I'm no longer blocked by creative problems, my muse so to speak is the other project, being the one my mind is currently working on even when I don't want to.
I mean, as a testament to this I wrote 27 chapters, in less than a week, totaling a bit over 79,000 words. That's how inspired I was by it.
That being said, I don't want to stop updating DC, or Marvel. Other projects are on hold sure, but those three are the ones I work with on a daily basis, more so with DC than Marvel, seeing DC is reaching its climax before the end, the inspiration isn't really fading.
As for the new project, I wish to start posting for it tomorrow. It has been approved by my Patreeeons, who so far had enjoyed it all.
---Fairy Tail: Shinigami.----
A normal human dies and reincarnates in the world of Fairy Tail, years before the story begins. The MC is around Laxus's age, as for his powers, well he was gifted with the powers of a shinigami, including an Asauchi of his own. He isn't aware of that at first but comes to discover this as the story progresses.
I plan to start posting for it tomorrow, with a mass release of nine chapters for a total of 18,098 words.
I will also post chapters for DC this week, so don't worry. You can check my patreooon link, without the need to subscribe to see how many updates I have for DC just today, you might not be able to read them if you don't subscribe, but you will see the titles and stuff, the point being, I am quite invested on both sides, just trying to take it easier with DC as it nears the end.
Which is around 40 chapters, and this is a very close estimate of how many chapters we have left. I just finished this arc today, meaning I'm starting to work on the last arc, tomorrow.
Anyway, leave your comments or questions in the comment section.
