Feel like I should put more effort into the sex scenes, but I don't want to lose the thread of the plot, such as it is.
Even by the standards of this story, the Looseleaf track isn't terribly popular - I think maybe the format confuses folks - but I'm enjoying playing with different characters and expanding on what's happening from a different perspective. If I had to do it all again, I might rewrite it differently. But going to continue onward for now.
Going through the chapters and making notes for better consistency and notice I need to do a little clean up. Not a lot, just some little things that crept in I missed. Hard to proofread your own work and all that.
I know there hasn't been a lot of sexy times in the last couple chapters, and I will work to add more soon. Just got wrapped up in moving the plot forward a little.
In hindsight, there was probably a better way to handle the second path, but I'm sticking with what I've got so far.
Kind of tricky to hit that correct mixture of sensitively trying to figure out the emotional parameters of relationships and hardcore fucking, but I think it's going okay.
Debating the merits of filling in the secondary track for some of the earlier chapters, maybe with some tertiary characters. Still have a lot of ideas for the world and setting beyond the farm.
Taking a day or two to do some outlining. I'd like to do a little more plotting and a little less pantsing, and there will be a continuation of secondary storylines for a few chapters. Bear with me.
So the current plan is to run the Daleman/Lilja chapters up until Looseleaf's journal starts, then there'll be a mix as the storylines start to overlap and characters interact more. https://chyoa.com/chapter/Daleman's-Log---02---02--2120.1699743
New chapter! Thoughts on shapeshifter sex! https://chyoa.com/chapter/Daleman's-Log---09---02---2120.1702286
Sorry for the delay. Last chapter went a bit sideways to how I'd had it outlined, so need to rework the outline a bit. Mostly, though, I'm just fucking exhausted these days, and I want these chapters to be good.
Slowly getting the storylines to catch up. Still feel like the secondary path isn't sexy enough, but adding in extra sex scenes kills the pacing.
No real sex in this chapter, plot points are converging. But more sex chapters are coming, I promise! https://chyoa.com/chapter/One-Last-Mission.1706433
I know this is long delayed, last couple of weeks have been rough on my writing schedule. It's not dead, I promise!
Slowly getting back on track. More plot incoming! More sex! I know the lack of sex in the chapters compared to the more porn-y stories is a turn-off for some people.
