Heeeeyyy... Crossed the 200,000 word mark! It's fitting that I crossed that in this chapter, too. Though I need to pick up the pace before my weekly postings catch up!

Chapter Seventeen is up! Get that Colgera battle music ready. I'll be posting more sporadically throughout September due to some trips I'll be taking, but by the last week of September, I should be pretty much back to posting weekly again.

Been a bit of a slower month for writing, but I'm rapidly closing in on 150,000 words! Currently working on Chapter 24, titled "Forbidden Legends", and I'll hit that 150k benchmark by the end of it. Excited to share more on Monday!

New chapter posted! Chapter Eight: Next Steps. Link returns to Lookout Landing to decide how to proceed, and along the way, he meets some new friends.

Just crossed page 300 in my manuscript and started Chapter 22 (chapter title subject to change)! Super happy with the progress so far, and with any luck, I'll cross 150,000 words by the end of June.

So excited to listen to this! From what I've heard so far, it's mostly just commentary on various places around Hyrule, but there are some excellent nuggets of lore and character spread throughout. Especially regarding Zelda and her mother.

I hate having to come up with names for characters... It's definitely not my strong suit!

Can we just take a moment to reflect on how awesome this scene is? The way they detailed the sliver cutting Ganondorf and burning away his Malice is just so cinematic.

I honestly think that had it struck him in the center of the head, it could have ended him right then and there.

100,000 words, folks! We're COOKING! And you what else? The two-year anniversary of #TOTK is coming up... Might be good to keep an eye on that day.

That feeling when the fog of writer's block parts, and suddenly you can see exactly how the next five chapters will go...

Finally crossed 200 pages in my Tears of the Kingdom novelization! I'm still not quite ready to start sharing it, but I promise that it is coming very soon. Stay tuned--I should have an announcement in the coming weeks!

I'd planned to get here a chapter or two earlier, but I'm happy with the way I've managed to flesh out Teba and Tulin's relationship along the way.

One step closer to the end of Part One!

So excited for this! ...But also, it's going to make writing Zelda's part of TOTK interesting... I'll just have to figure it out!
