Well. I just finished the chapter in which Kosh dies for realsies. There's aftermath to cover, and then I'm skipping ahead by centuries. Covering a few of the warped stories that become nursery tales or wild fantasy stories.
I think I might write chapter 600 in advance. Just to cheese it. When I get there, that's it. The end. Finito. Done and dusted.
And I will take an extended break before I even think of rewriting Rael or finishing off Kingdom of Sand. I need a good long break from novel writing after being at it from January 2022 to whenever it is that I finally put the words "THE END" into ADT. Powers let it be only three years that I spent putting words into this sextology.
Though given my recent habit of powering through a chapter a day, it shouldn't be long. Ninety chapters to go. Ninety days, all being well.
If I keep my pace up, I'll be done before the end of May.
And I'm taking the rest of the year off from novel writing. I've earned it. And it might even help clear all the Koshy thoughts.
Maybe.
Update
My internet is playing stupid tricks again, so today's offering will be limited to the daily tale. I shall be catching up on the rest when services resume. Or when I've had a sleep and feel much better about working on my lappy with a mobile phone hot spot.
