Welcome to my writing journal! Frankly I've noticed that I've been having a lot of chats about writing stuff...So I've decided to start to throw some of my more extensive/epic thoughts in here so I can get my urge to write giant authors notes out of my system ^_^ This post will be sitting on top for awhile, in classic blogger 'read this first' fashion.

I'll be tagging by story.

Exactly what the title says!

( Behind the cut because there are 3, all G-rated )

I sketched out a 'High Res Zoom' of the action stuff in the 'The Road' plot arc. It's simple, but focuses in on what Rey does versus the big picture:



The red line is Cerebos' raid party :P

Ok, I'm considering expanding 'Indulge' a little bit. You can blame some of this on watching a 'Let's Play' of Amnesia: The Dark Descent. O_O

( Themes in Indulge...Meaning the 7 Deadly Sins )

So HMMMMMMM I HAVE THINGS TO THINK ABOUT

Another illustration, this time for when Rey finds Sidious and switches to the red light:

Rey finds the dead guys in the bilge...

So one of the reasons that chapter 5 of Counting Days has been so long in coming (besides getting the Reywalker bug HARD), is that I had to figure out where in the actual Hell everything on Jakku is located. And some of it is still unclear. Seriously, even with Wookiepedia and Google in my arsenal, I could only really do some approximate locations for a lot of these. But I did the best I could, with the help of a pad of paper, a pencil, and a lot of erasing.

Here's the end result, after some editing in Autodesk. Note that is is very, very NOT TO SCALE:



I was hoping to find a map online, so I wouldn't have to do this, but, no...

Luckily, I was able to put the Gorgon wherever I wanted. There are 7 major action contact points, and now hopefully I can use the visual aid to bang it out. YAY.

Here's an illustration for my fanfic series The Rule of Two. I did it with Autodesk on my tablet, and modded some of the contrast and color saturation stuff in photobucket:

Darth Sidious is a tough character to work with. In my opinion, the worst thing you can do with him is make him too nice... Well, genuinely nice. If he's good to anyone, there needs to be a reason. 'Counting Days' is kind of a strange fic, in that it's 100% Rey's POV, so she only sees what he wants her to see...at first. She figures out that her new friend isn't quite what he appears to be, but by the time she realizes what's up, he's a part of her life.

They do, however, become a team, of sorts. There are always two, after all...

Here's some notes on Sidious. Some of it is my comments-section brainstorming.
