The Epilogue

July 27, 2009 at 11:10 pm (Specimen Two: Ixion)

Specimen Two: Ixion has finally come to the Epilogue.

Once again, reviews are greatly appreciated because it’s how I can learn and get better, but since so few people have the time to share their comments with me, I’ve added a poll as well.

I would have written like something longer in this post if I weren’t so tired. My internship just began today and… yeah, tiring.

Please leave a comment and your feedback =)

Toughest Chapter To Write

July 22, 2009 at 7:44 pm (Specimen Two: Ixion)

Every story I write has a particular chapter that is exceptionally difficult to write. For Specimen Two: Ixion, this was the chapter.

The Not-So-Fantastic Fourth

July 16, 2009 at 2:10 am (Specimen Two: Ixion)

Fourth final chapter.

Short.

But no double-special.

Not happy?

Tough luck.

Lol, I’m sorry, I did not mean that at all – just wanted to say something that mean for a long time =X Anyway, it’s the final five chapters so I really can’t afford anymore double-specials.

The Final Five

July 14, 2009 at 3:45 pm (Specimen Two: Ixion)

Haha, sounds like a phrase from the Battlestar: Galactica series but uh, yeah, we’re at the final 5 chapters before the Epilogue. No long speech right now since we’re not at the end so here you go~

Perspectives?

July 10, 2009 at 5:15 pm (Specimen Three: Geralt)

Well, since the whole idea of the Project M.I.G.H.T. series is for me to better myself as a writer which is to also experiment different writing styles, why not try writing a different perspective?

Specimen One was your typical third-person narrative.

Specimen Two added more of my voice into the third-person narrative by breaking down the fourth wall.

Specimen Three shall be a first-person narrative?

Sounds fun.

I’ll try it out then =)

– I’ll get part two of The One About eBooks up after I’ve done some more research into the subject.

Long or Short?

July 9, 2009 at 12:37 am (Specimen Three: Geralt)

I currently at 11,000 words for the first draft of Specimen Three – yeap, got the flow back - and at this number of words, it’s usually the seventh or sixth chapter but right now I’m only at the third O.o

Did I plan this? Not really. I end a chapter when I feel like it – there’s no formula.

I like short chapters because then it’s easier to just stop at the end of one chapter if I have something else to attend to. Long chapters might take a while to complete and I don’t really like to stop reading in the middle of a chapter.

Right now I don’t really see the benefits of a long chapter, but I’ll keep writing in the same manner and see if I continue to churn out really long chapters. If I do then maybe I’ll take this opportunity to try out these really long chapters and see if it does make the reading experience better.

And in case you’re wondering, the third specimen is going to make his appearance in Specimen Two: Ixion very soon =)
