Kat Sakaro: Blog

Alright Since Chapter 6 is in queue to be edited and 7 is awaiting polish, last minute additions, and editing, and chapter 8 is slowly starting to form. I'm realizing I need something more than what I have for character bios. I'm thinking of posting them as a 'story' here on SOL for everyone to see. A chapter per character to make it easy. Update them as needed and let everyone know in these blog posts. I would like to know what my fans and followers think, so feel free to message me, even if you aren't a fan or follower, message me.

I am learning more and more as I write, I'm learning to cool off the story a bit and come back to re-read what I wrote and make sure it makes sense. I hope what I learned shows in chapter 6, at time of finishing it, it was ~5500 words (pre-edit) which was around 1/3 the word count of the prologue and chapters 1 thru 5. Chapter 7 currently is at 4450 words (also pre-edit).

I know I can't please everyone. I know my story has gray areas of morality, like 2 physically 13-year-olds, but the mentality of 43-year-olds being sexually active. Then there's the fantasy of mastering the mind and having abilities like telekinesis, telepathy, even some form of fantasy DnD psionic abilities when they are older, and who knows what else feels right to put into it.

With that I end this post. Feel free to message me with compliments, critiques, or just fan mail. I will try to reply to most if not all for now. And as always. Thank you for reading this blog and my story.

I've got chapter 5 in the queue for Monday morning. It's about 95% edited, the last few paragraphs I've looked over and over again since my editor is out on vacation for another week or 2. Chapter 6 will have to wait until we go over it with a fine tooth comb. I already have my idea for chapter 7, it could be a darker chapter, but the ideas are rolling around so we will see where it goes when it's ready.

I've got chapter 4 ready for tomorrow morning. I'm still working on chapter 6. Things have slowed down for me in the writing area, and my editor is on vacation so chapters 5 and 6 will have to wait on them to return, probably a week, no more than 2 week delay in posting chapter 5, I hope.

I've got Chapter 3 in the queue for Monday morning. It's another short chapter. Chapters 4 and 5 are a bit longer. I'm working on Chapter 6 now. I haven't had much luck getting past the first paragraph so I might stall out in a couple of weeks.

I've got Chapter two in the queue and should be posted on Monday, 8 AM. As much as I want to say I have the entire story done, I don't. the first 4 chapters are done, 5 is almost done, but beyond that. Anyone's guess. So here is hoping I can keep this going for a long while.
