Well, I'd like to say I was close to being done but now I've had a new idea and again in order to implement it I'm going to have to rewrite significant portions of the story. This is, however, different from Logan's progress on Nagol as he's simply not putting any effort into it at all.

It sucks as is. Granted I'm always liable to think my work sucks; I can't ever seem to get down what I'm really trying to convey as far as the story's overall arc is concerned. But it's not all bad in that I have things in mind to fix it. And, as I said, at least I'm still working on it.

I don't like it as is. I need to change the whole feel of the story so there's no point in finishing the story when I'm going to radically alter the precedding events.

Or you'll do what? Anyways, maybe I'll work on that more lighthearted story; it's not as inticate and doesn't deal with deep themes so it should be easier to write. Or I could work on The Adventures of Antidisestablismentarianism.

It's all good. I've even got a new first line ready. Hmm... Maybe I should send you the draft I've been working on so you can see what I've been working on. It's kind of rough in that I've altered some portions and not others. Those alterations aren't enough though, which is why I'm doing a full rewrite.

Uh, kind of both. But I'm doing (hopefully) better at school this time. In any case, I think I could just e-mail you Kathous as is, just to show you my line of thought so far. Just remember that I'm changing almost every aspect.

It's on my computer, but it's a draft that will be almost entirely rewritten with major aspects of the story changed.

I've only ever seriously attempted at the prologue, but that's all preliminary stuff to help me nail down what I want the story to be about. I do have to say that the themes and motiffs have really started to come together. But still, Logan has to work on Nagol...

Kathous hasn't gotten much work recently, but that's primarily because I can't decide exactly how I want the story to go, have it branch off one way or another. And this isn't something I can just arbitraily pick; that would defeat the purpose of making the story exaclty how I want it to be.

Lesson number one to potential writers out there; don't get too attacted to your plans as to how a long story arc will pan out. I had one before but I kept grating against it so I've ended up throwing most of it out so I can start from scratch and make it better.

Although your current work on RiFt (or lack thereof) could churn a couple of ideas and possiblely get you to start working on it again.

Well, nowadays Kathous, Darkest Heart and Rift are all tied together into the same story universe. Kathous would be set way before the other two, but Rift at this moment takes precedence out of those.
