I’ve done a point-by-point outline for Ithan-Yuran and the Secret of the Lost Dessert, Logbook of an Artificer, Understanding an Ancient Duty and Rank C. I’m halfway done the outline for Trials and Tribulations of a Student of the Great Game and I shouldn’t have too much trouble writing the one for Wargames of a Different Sort.
However, I’m stumped for I’ll Stake my Reputation on It, Modding the Future, and Hacking the Hacker. I’m taking it as a bad sign that I’m already stumped with these three stories — I may ditch them. While they sound like really good ideas, I’m just not “feeling” them right now. I won’t delete them off the roster yet, though, because if I delete them, I’ll be left with six stories that need to be 8250 words each. While I suspect I’ll hit verbal diarrhea with Kamicha’s story, others — like the Ithan-Yuran one — I suspect will be short. I’m tempted to force myself to make a plot for those whether I like them or not, and write them at the end…
