I'm going to do my March update since I didn't actually do it at the end of March. I stopped writing the week before Norwescon (last week of March) and I haven't written anything since. In all that time I've been theoretically planning to work on Chance Encounter, but I've written virtually nothing.
Anyway, I was a bit ahead of two of my goals so here's my new tally:
2013 Goals:
Goal 1 - Write a Grandpa Anarchy Story a Week:
January 2013
Jan 19: DarkFireDragonNinja (begun several years ago)
Jan 24: OmniGen Again (begun Jan 23)
Jan 25: Veteran of the Bone Wars (begun Dec 30)
Jan 29: Nemesis (begun Dec 10)
February 2013
Jan 31: Turncoats (begun Dec 8)
Feb 3: There Ain't No Justice (begun Nov 29)
Feb 5: City of the Monkey God (begun Nov 26)
Feb 7: Future Me (begun Jan 31)
March 2013
Feb 10: Roll of the Die (begin Feb 10)
Feb 11: Trouble Focusing (begun, Nov 21, in theory)
Feb 19: Dead Again (begun Feb 18)
Goal 2 - Write a Tai-Pan Story a Month:
Feb 16 The Pilgrimage of Ian St. Ritz (January Tai-Pan story, 10,000 words)
Feb 23: Space Miner Blues
Feb 23: Banker Blues
Mar 07: Hair of the Throug that Bit Me
Mar 17: Cursed Be Ye Who Moves These Bones
Goals 3 & 4
No progress on my other goals. As for the Grandpa Anarchy book... I've reworked a couple of stories, that's it.
--------
I continue to come up with new Grandpa Anarchy story ideas or seeds of ideas however. Here's the current list, including what I had listed for February:
Feb 19 Anarchy Is Forever
Feb 24 Hero's Sacrifice
Feb 25 The Crystal Weenie
Feb 25 Alien Space Bats
Apr 09 The Apocalypse Meme
I read There Ain't No Justice at Saturday's writer's night, and it went over pretty well. I reworked it a bit today. I read Stone Temple Space Raiders at March's writer's night, and it did not go over so well. I haven't reworked it yet because I'm undecided on whether I can come up with an ending that justifies the length, or I just need to take an axe to it, or probably I need to do both but a better ending hasn't manifested itself yet.
