Actually, there is a bit of Doofensmirtz in Thompberry... Not that he's incompetent... But like Doof, Thompberry never quite got the hang of being truly evil.

Just Jim Posted December 30, 2016 Author Share Posted December 30, 2016 OK, back on topic I've been making new stuff all day, but it took a little longer than I thought. Nothing bad, it's just I have to teach myself a couple new things. Sooo.... because I'm falling behind... again... lol... here's a teaser screenshot from the next chapter. Should pretty much explain what I've been up to the last few days: Spoiler "WOOOOHOOOOOO", Piper screamed. "I SO want one of these!!!"

Today I've been field testing that one and getting screenshots for the next chapter. I've also been teaching myself KAS. Yes, I've had it for a while, but truth is, I haven't used it much until now. Anyway, I hope to get this batch of screenshots wrapped up today. Then I want to re-read @Geschosskopf's Outer Planets Traveling Circus, and make sure I have some things about Sanny correct. I got thinking about her...This isn't really a full blown crossover, but she's become more than just a cameo at this point... I suppose she's a "special guest-star"?

Just Jim Posted January 3, 2017 Author Share Posted January 3, 2017 Hey everyone.... just a quick update. the screenshots are done, but I've re-written the chapter three times and it still feels wrong.... I'm missing something,..... not sure what yet, but it feels incomplete... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not creator's block, so to say, but your unconcious self warning you that something is off. I used to feel that way over most of the software I'd create.... Now I just accept that I'll miss something minor and have to fix it in revision. Harder to do that with prose.

You're right, it's not a block... more like a gut feeling I'm either missing something, or contradicting myself somewhere... but I can't figure out what or where...

Just Jim Posted January 5, 2017 Author Share Posted January 5, 2017 (edited) Hey everyone, I got good news, bad news, and then more good news... Good news: I came at this chapter from a different angle, and I'm much happier with how it feels. I want to send a really big thank-you to my buddy @adsii1970 for letting me bounce ideas off of him the last couple days, and for giving me a couple wonderful suggestions that will make this tie together nicely. Bad news: I need to get all new screenshots. 2nd Good news: I've been playing all afternoon and evening, and the new screenshots are already done. So I'll do a little photoshopping in the morning, upload everything, and fingers crossed get this next one written up by tomorrow evening.

Mister Dilsby Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Writing is easy. Editing is hard. Deleting and starting over, no matter how much time you've sunk into something you just know isn't right...well, that's called being an author.
