Dont know if I'll get WW done today, TBoB took much longer than usual, but I'm going to do my best!
As we hurried west, towards the city, I pulled up the map to check out the situation. The antithesis were now quickly advancing, and it looked like they’d overrun the various artillery ca...

This took much longer than expected... I like the general idea, but it didn't flow that well. Teddy would 100% not want to wait for planning, but I couldn't see her pulling a Cat on the entire government either. I need to think on it more... don't know if tomorrow will be a replacement, ...

Another week of writing down, another index released! You'll find everything I worked on this week, including a new story I worked on in the evenings (Yes, for some insane reason 8hour wasnt enough) in the Story Snippets section.
It's called imaginary, and I'm kind of excited about it.

Suprise! Double TBoB today. Why? Because I'm a couple weeks ahead on everything else, and I wanted at least a week of TBoB. Enjoy!

“Bob’s finished with his assignment, we can move in now,” I reported as I headed towards the nearest Kodiak.
“He destroyed that thing by himself?” Hel asked in disbelief.
“That tank’s nothing. He once punched a Forty-Four in the face,” I exclaimed as I entered t...

It was incredible how quickly the antithesis flowed into the area. Even though we managed to avoid the forerunners, the rest of the wave stampeded into the area before I managed to clear the town. Part of that was due to the fact that Woofer’s truck was slow, and struggled to jus...

Clara and I quickly descended down the hill heading back towards the crossroads. It seemed like Clara didn’t want to say anything, so it fell upon me to bring up the subject.
“So, what is she sick with? Tuberculosis?” I asked quietly.

My mind reeled at the revelation, and I struggled to figure out a way to save Pen-Gwen and Woofer before we overrun. Finally, I made a decision.

Good news everyone! Edits. Are. Done. So this'll be the last update on this topic.
I spent about five full days cleaning it up, punching up the early bits and un third personing the last bits (Still don't know how I managed to do that.)
I guess the next step is to investigate publis...

Annabelle stepped back, allowing Clara and I to enter, before closing the door behind us.
I marveled at her small home. The front area was fairly normal, a sitting area, kitchen and dining area, but the back was something else entirely.
In the rear of the cabin was an a...

After pushing through the years of weeds and new growth we found ourselves standing next to an old, abandoned warehouse or commercial building. Despite being just a couple feet off the main road, I hadn’t seen the building.
That was partially due to the fact that the weeds ...

Clara must have sensed that I didn’t want to talk on the way back, because she didn’t try to strike up on a conversation as we made our way back. As soon as we arrived I stepped inside and practically slammed the door in her face.
She didn’t really deserve that, but I w...

“Why won't these assholes give up?” I moaned as I nudged a ganger with my toe. I'm sure he would have complained, if he wasn’t busy cradling his busted nose and messed up fingers. I didn’t recognize the gang colors, which probably meant the small group came from a couple sectors ...

“So, who exactly are we looking for?” I asked as soon as Skyler and I slipped into her car.
{Arty: Two fairly new samurai, Pen-gwen and Woofer. They were eliminating a group of antithesis which had broken away from the main horde.}
“Pen-gwen and Woofer? Seriously?” Sk...

It's Friday, so new index! (I almost forgot)
I've left in the TBoB chapters that I'm removing, just in a new section, so you can still read them if you want.

So... I finished this first today and honestly thought I posted it. Oops! Fixed now!
It took a few seconds for my eyes to adapt to the darkness within the hall, and when they finally did, I still didn’t see much. The hall was draped in gloom, dark, almost unnatural. There were no lamps ...

I woke the next morning to a tiny set of paws poking me in the face. Cracking my eyes slightly I found Lala pawing my face. Behind her I could see Skyler standing there, trying her best not to laugh.
“Not my fault,” Skyler chuckled. “She was sleeping with me, and once I...

It turned out there weren’t that many places to actually put evacuees, even in a mega city as large as Calgary. Nearly every possible square foot was covered with either mega towers, which were already packed full of their own residents and didn’t want to take in more, or titanic ind...

The next few days crawled by. I spent most of my time pacing around the tiny cabin, talking to my cat, just waiting for Clara to stop by for her daily visit. She’d pop in, drop off some supplies, ask me a few probing questions about my past, then disappear again.

I finished editing chapter 36 of TBoB today, that's up to 'The Calm' and the end of the first arc.

When I regained consciousness I was somewhere I didn’t recognize. I was laying on a hide bed, in a small log cabin. There wasn’t much around, just a rough wood table, some chairs, and a small chest at the end of the bed.

The late afternoon sun beat down on the small outcropping which I’d hidden myself. I could have set up closer to the treeline, but the rocks were a lot closer to the tracks, and provided a much better sightline, so here I stayed.
