Editing

Hopefully, when I wake up tomorrow, I’ll be able to completely edit Chapter 5, and be able to post it.  Although, since I wake up at weird times… well, lets just say, within 48 hours rofl.

I’ll also be posting all of Act 3, and the first four chapters of act 4, in the form of… posts, before posting chapter 5.  I plan on getting the table of contents filled with links too, but it’s not a high priority lol.

Fun Fact: While posting chapters earlier, I realized something pretty ridiculous… Raelin’s original name was actually Raenil Nirorneth.  Then I randomly started calling her Raelin Nerorneth in chapter 11.  I can’t believe that no one told me about that 😦

Anyway, before editing, Chapter 5 is up to 14.5k words, after editing it should be over 15k.  Hopefully the ridiculously long length will somehow make up for me taking so damn long to write it lol.

I haven’t started working on it yet, but I’m probably going to write chapter 6 in third person PoV… who that third person is, I’m not quite sure yet.  It’s not like I haven’t written anything in Immortal Soul in third person PoV so far, so it shouldn’t be weird, hopefully.

Several people asked me to talk about the tiny mouse people, and I personally would like to tell a few short stories about various characters, in a sense, chapter 6 will likely be an interlude.  To be completely honest, I was planning to add a prologue, epilogue and interlude, among other things, into each of the volumes I’ve already written… once I’m done with volume 4 that is, because I’m only about half-way finished this Act.

When I go back and read volume 1 especially, it’s incredibly painful to resist the urge to edit everything lol.  Unfortunately, the amount of editing required is so extreme, that I would literally have to double the lengths of the first few chapters.

Okay, I really need to stop typing now and go to sleep 🙂

Oh hey, I made a blog.  Sigh, it took so much time and effort, but I still don’t really know what I’m doing lol.

Well, I managed to separate the chapters into four pages, based on volumes.  When I tried to place them in individual pages, I reached some kind of limit on the amount of times I could parent pages in Act Two… which didn’t really make sense to me, but whatever.

If I can figure out how to get it to work later, I’ll change things… though I might still keep the full volumes the way they are for the people who prefer to read them that way… plus it took a lot of effort for me to set up all the links and stuff :(.

Anyway, that’s pretty much it, I’m not done writing chapter five yet, but on the positive side of things, I have a pretty solid idea about how the rest of this Act will play out now.  It will most likely be an 11 chapter volume, and probably the longest so far.

Fun fact I discovered because wordpress gives you wordcounts of everything, my whole story so far is over 260,000 words.  Volume One was 74k, Volume Two was 83k, Volume Three was 66k, and what I’ve written of Volume Four so far is up to 38k.

I’ll probably make a character sheet on this site when I have time, there are lots of characters… and other things that I would like to talk about.  I’m still going to post chapters on Royal Road, but aside from that, it’s kind of difficult to post things beside chapters there.

For example: Here’s a link to Animenz playing a piano cover of This Game the theme song from No Game No Life.

Question: Why did I link that?

Answer: Because I can, and I enjoy listening to piano covers of anime theme songs.

Okay, before I start linking videos of Tigers Eating Catnip… never-mind, it’s already too late.

Ah, Youtube, how did we survive before the internet anyway?
