Also, by calling on beta testers now, I get to keep my promise to at last start the beta process before the New Year. Technically. Sort of.
Last scene took me petty long, especially given that it’s a fairly standard sex scene without any of the fancy structuring I tried on the others, but I’m particularly happy with how it turned out. I had gotten to the point where I could knock out a sex scene in two writing sessions or so, but I can’t deny that slowing down and tackling each action as if it were its own particular mini-scene lends a much better flow and feeling to the whole thing. Or at least necessitates fewer rewrites during revision.
Just like last time, anybody interested please send a message to [email protected]. Every new build will be accessible to >$5 patrons at my Patreon page by default, with no expectation that they submit any reports (though of course they’re welcome!)
Well, that’s about it. As a bonus, I leave you off with another short story snippet, posted here.
Happy/Merry/Non-miserable whatever it is you do to everyone and see you after the New Year, provided the blazing southern hemisphere summer and mandatory family-gathering overeating doesn’t knock me out of commission.
