Fifteen weeks sounds like a nice round milestone, even if only twelve of those were successive. I also passed 20000 words this section, making my average about 1400 words per installment, still a little short of my goal of at 1500 word average, but not too shabby. This installment is a little long, making up for some of the shorter quips here and there. Eventually I'll get things up the way i want them. I do sometimes wonder just where this story is heading. Anyway, this went well. I'm once again posting before midnight on a Sunday, although I admit I was up until nearly four last night. Comments, questions, etc. always welcome.

I think this is working out rather well, all in all.

The winner takes it all, indeed. This song is on my (ever growing) Pieces playlist for a reason. I am very satisfied with this section. I think it works well, but then, I have a very clear picture in my mind of this scene. I hope it translates well, and am curious to see others' interpretations.

This is a bit late, but hey, it is still Sunday night. It is also a bit short, but I didn't get to start writing until nearly one. I didn't get to do what I was hoping to since I didn't have as much time to write as I'd hoped. This is filler, but I hope that it won't be too disappointing.

Another week, another installment.  I am fairly pleased with this though it took me a while to figure out what I wanted to do, and to find my focus.  I hope that my readers find it enjoyable.  I also hope that it will help open up more possibilities for future installments.  I actually have a few ideas about what I can do next, which gives me things to work on for the next couple of weeks.

Also, I want to mention a couple of songs that I find really appropriate for this serial: Duran Duran - Ordinary World, Faith and the Muse - Whispered In Your Ear and Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here (although I actually have the Rasputina version). There are others, but I'll start with these. And without further introduction...

Tenth installment - a minor milestone. My word count tells me that I am averaging around 1350 words each time, although in reality there is quite a range. This installment falls a little short of that, but the last section was quite long, so I hope you will forgive me. I am pleased that I have managed to keep this up for six weeks running this time, which is a little longer than I managed when I first started back in early 2005. I hope I can keep it up, although I have decided that I will try and bring this to some kind of conclusion by the end of the year, so that I can try working with something that is more entirely original.

This is an ongoing serial story I started, and then abandoned last year. I picked it up again just after Christmas, I believe. I have been posting them in my main journal, but I think I will copy them over here. The versions I have on my hard drive of the various sections have seen more revisions, for certain. I'll start posting them over the course of the week. This post is just a little introduction to the series, and background on some of the characters, adapted from another post form my main journal... And so it goes. I should say that you don't *have* to read this in order to follow the story, but it does give some context about where the character is from. I'll try not to give away too many important plot details, anyway.

Some Background to Pieces )

Pieces follows Daniel's story once he has returned to Earth, and is trying to make sense of his place in the world. Also, this is set in my interpretation of the World of Darkness (3rd editions, more or less), and so it does use a lot of words and concepts that are not my intellectual property. However as White Wolf's whole purpose was to create (and sell) a system for telling stories, they can hardly object to my making use of their ideas, as long as I'm not selling them. And I'm not, no matter how convinced my mother was that I could/should have. Please enjoy the story!
