SimsStoCreMo Wrap Up. New Banner. Other Things.
Before I get into anything else, the part I am most excited about. (You have to picture the bouncing and arm flailing here 'cause it happened)
Editing is in progress!
Oh yeah! Bold and underlined! Really, really! I got the first part of the prologue back from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
debbycus this morning (Yesterday morning now? Possibly, I haven't been to sleep yet so it is still today for me) and it was so much easier to read.
I will of course let everyone know when the editing process is all caught up so you too can go back and marvel at text that flows without tripping over my errors. All future updates will be edited before being posted as well. With luck I will catch on to what it is I am doing wrong most often and make things a lot easier for debbs in future because she is awesome and wonderful and completely volunteered to do this. I am very, very grateful.
SimStoCreMo:
Both Chapters posted didn't happen. They did however both get written. I am in the process of images for the final update of Chapter 5 and the scene arrangement for Chapter 6.
Secondary goals of a minimum 20000 words and 400 images?
Chapter 5 is at 16645 words Chapter 6 is coming in close to 12000 (I will have a final count once I am finished arranging) for approximately 28000 words. That goal I can count as completed! Yay!
Unfortunately as of the end of February I only had 227 images. So that was a no go.
Final tally for SimStoCreMo: 1 of 3 goals completed. Main goal missed. I had a ton of fun doing it though!
New Banner:
Pleasantries has a new banner image! You can see it on the index page and in a few other places as well (some of which I will be talking about in just a moment). I like this one much better than the previous one that I sort of just threw together in a spur of the moment type thing. This one has a plan and a design and a purpose and a matching u-pic set!
Special thanks toritaxis for helping solidify the design plan by pointing out exactly what I was seeing that I had accidentally done.
Other Things:
Along with the new banner, I have added my Pleasantries Calender to the index page. This is mostly the tool I use to keep track of what has happened when and what will be happening in future. None of the future stuff is included on the version I shared of course, but things like birthdays are! Go check it out.
I am also working on a general world summary for those who are interested in more information and the background. A lot of it is trivia, but I know I have a few reading who enjoy trivia so if you are one of them, you can look forward to that. :D
I have also had a request to upload a few of the images that are hanging on the walls at Landgrabb Photography (Tybalt's work). I will be packaging those up in the next week or so, so if there is anything else anyone would like me to put up as well, now is the time to ask. Pretty much if you have seen it in my images (and it is mine) it can be made available. Just let me know.
Okay, enough babble from me. Back to scene arranging :D
