Update Soon

Been way, way, way too long. And I've got absolutely no excuses for that. But, the next chapter of A Waning Silence is being worked on, it's almost complete and I do hope to have it up very soon.

I have been working away, and I have written a lot, a little over 30k words as of this morning. And I keep thinking "I'll have it done tonight!", I've been thinking that every night for more than a week now. So it's just been slow going, and not for any reasonable excuse reason. 

Anyway, point is, I've only got what should be a handful of pages left, and then some more editing and proofing. It could very well be done tonight, making this update a little redundant, and I hope it is. In any case, no matter what it'll be done soon.

I can only say I'm sorry, that I never imagined it would take even half this long and that I'll keep working.

As always, the update will be on my SubscribeStar: https://www.subscribestar.com/jldavenport

 Happy 4/16 day!

As promised, to celebrate this auspicious occassion and everyone's favourite T-Doll, it's the public release of my first (and probably only) Girls Frontline story. Showcasing the reunion of the Commander and Klukai, and all the feelings they've got spilling over from the ten years they spent apart.

I hope you enjoy!

[Girls Frontline 2] Perihelion - Early Access

 

Phew! This might be a bit of a surprise, but here's a small taster of something different!

I've been chipping away at the next chapter of A Waning Silence, and while I've made progress I've still got quite a long way to go. So I thought, for the sake of getting something out, I'd work on a smaller story I could get up and done in just a few days, so I could get something across to you in the meantime.

Originally, I thought I'd do another brief XIV chapter... but I've been playing GFL2 a lot lately, and I've been a huge fan of HK416/Klukai since all the way back in the first game... So, inspiration kind'a caught hold of me!

If you're waiting for another chapter of A Waning Silence, then don't worry, this wasn't a big distraction from that, it only took me a few days to get this done. I'm happy to say, for the first time in a long while, this story did *not* get away from me! It's a pretty nice and straightforward 10k words done in a pretty short period. 

Anyway, I'm going straight back to work on AWS, and I should have more news and another chapter of that out again in the near future.

In the meantime, here's little story of the Commander and Klukai's reunion in GFL2. 

Please find the Early Access link here.

Hope you enjoy it!

Public release will be on 4/16.

[Danmachi] A Waning Silence Ch15 - Public Release

 


And here we are, right on schedule! The update for Chapter 15 is now live!

And I've already started diving back into the next chapter, so I'm gonna keep this momentum going and get another update out ASAP.

I was planning on doing a small XIV update after New Years that basically acted as an epilogue to the previous chapter, I only want it to be about 5k words so if it looks like I can get that done before the end of this coming week I'll get that out. Otherwise I'll get another Danmachi chapter done ASAP.

We're finally going back to the Dungeon, it's long past overdue, but we've collected two Waitresses on the way, so I think it's been a worthwhile trip above ground?

Anyway, please find the link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/40512411/chapters/163735009

And I hope you enjoy, thank you, as always for your support and patience. Means the world to me.

[Danmachi] A Waning Silence Ch15 - Early Access

 [Danmachi] A Waning Silence Ch15 - Early Access

 

Phew! 

When I started this around Christmas, I had two big goals, 

1. Don't make it another huge 40k monster chapter.
2. Get it done before the end of Jan

It's just a hair under 30k words, so I at least managed to keep one of those goals! Ha... This seriously took a while, but I'm happy with how it's turned out, I think it's a great chapter.

And, while I'm disapointed that I wasn't able to keep the timeframe I was intending, I'm currently experimenting this year with trying to dedicate far more of my time to writing than I have been before. I've reduced the amount of hours I'm taking at work for the next few months to do my best to try get out a whole lot of chapters and content, I want to see if it's possible to do this SubscribeStar as a main job.

So far, I'm behind schedule. But, I'll keep going and I'll hopefully have something else out very soon, I'm trying to make sure I sit down and write for 5+ hours a day on the days that I can...

Anyway, it's been a while since we've had anything Danmachi related, so I hope you enjoy!

Please find the Early Access link here.

Public release will be in a week.
