Forgot to do this last week! Let’s get right into it:
Quality of Life Updates
First up, let’s talk about some updates that came out in the last month —
Reading on-site? Great news! All Mission Logs, Chapters, and installments of The Cardinal Directive, Sleepless, and Mythic all now contain a link at the top to the previous post and a link at the bottom to the next one! This will hopefully make it easier to access the on-site articles in the order they were intended.
Directories! The Cardinal Directive and Sleepless now have dedicated field guides with all the links you might need. They’re pinned in their tabs on the blog and updated regularly when new content is available. These directories also indicate which content is available to free users!
The main Author’s Notes page has been updated to link to the directories for both projects.
Sleepless now has a master document, where you can read through the whole story! Available only to paying subscribers.
Mythic also now has a master document available to all users!
This Month’s Successes!
50k words: With the release of Sleepless: Chapter Eleven, Sleepless as a project is now over 50k words! That means both Sleepless and Cardinal already contain a novel’s worth of content with no sign of slowing down!
Mythic: Everlight parts 1 and 2 have been released! As a reminder, the Myth of Everlight will be a five-part story, though the world of Mythic itself will come to have many stories associated with it in the future! Once part five has been released, we will go back to releasing writing advice articles every other Monday.
Redbubble: The Redbubble store is up to fifteen designs! If you want to buy my art on clothes, pins, or stickers, this is the place to do it!
After a small hiatus to mark the mid-season finale, Cardinal got new icon art to differentiate the latter half of season one! We will be returning to our regular schedule of alternating Cardinal and Sleepless content on Fridays for paying subscribers!
Areas of Focus for April
This month, I want to see about getting more art and sketches done. I would really love to have character sketches for all the major players in The Cardinal Directive. Bonus points if I can get some Mythic art done too!
We’re really getting into the thick of things with Cardinal. It miiight be about time to get a more solid outline going. Maybe a physical outline? I’m getting the itch to make a physical binder/folder for it all…
