2018-02-07 01:54:02 +0000 UTCMaybe this is a stupid question, but this story reminded me; didn't you mention, way back when, about how brokers might handle sex with other species? Mostly involving domination on their part with the promise of payment, I think.

2018-02-02 23:34:33 +0000 UTC1500 word update, was a little busier than usual today.
Snekguy
2018-02-02 23:33:33 +0000 UTCooh, the Brokers are aquatic? wasn't expecting that, and glad to get some more info on them. Also, hi! Been a fan of your work for a few months now, finally got around to msking an account to comment. Keep up the awesome work :)

2018-02-01 00:23:05 +0000 UTCYeah this doesn't happen often, and I can usually salvage most of an update if I make a big mistake, but sometimes you just have to burn it all down and start over. I think the last time this happened was when I was writing Outpost, and I had a huge, sprawling section about how Schaffer was fixing the heating system in the base. It was completely boring and tedious, and after reading back through it, I replaced it with a more concise passage that got the same point across in like a tenth of the time.

2018-01-31 00:43:52 +0000 UTC2000 word update, new content at “I will teach you the patterns,” Story is now patched up and subsequent updates will resume as normal.
Snekguy
2018-01-31 00:41:06 +0000 UTCI'm impressed you haven't had to go back and do this sort of editing before. It's tough to write pieces as long as you do in a straight, linear fashion.

2018-01-30 10:58:09 +0000 UTC2000 word update, adding in the aforementioned necklace scene. New content at "After a short climb back up the way they had come"
Snekguy
2018-01-30 00:54:06 +0000 UTC2500 word update, we're back on the rails. RETCON: I will be adding in an extra passage earlier in the story in which Lena participates in a Krell ceremony where they make a necklace for her. This will better establish what happens in this update, and will make it feel less like a plot contrivance.

2018-01-28 18:59:12 +0000 UTCDon't worry about it man.

2018-01-28 03:04:44 +0000 UTCI don't do this often, but the update that I wrote today is bad and I can't use it. I did a bunch of janky math to try and explain how Lena figures out Krell timekeeping, and after reading back through it, it's just not concise and it's not entertaining and it needs to be scrapped. Unfortunately I don't have time to start over today, sorry about that.

Snekguy
2017-12-31 14:46:45 +0000 UTCWoo! New story! And Happy New Year, slightly early. I know it won't come up again but I did like the not-quite-hermaphrodite krell as well as the rest, so I do look forward to the lizard lovin' in general.
