Is the showcase also on tuesday/wednesday? I need more time :-D
I haven't been updating in these topics because I haven't had much to share, but I'm happy to report that I have now actually written some things! Nothing is finished yet, and I've got a lot more writing and editing to do, but I'll hopefully have a few blog posts to share when this is all done.
Also, now that I've finished Chrono Trigger for CGA I can really hone in. That plus being deadline motivated will hopefully make for a productive home stretch for me.
Good luck to everyone here! I haven't responded to nearly as many of everyone's posts as I would have liked to, but know that I've genuinely loved reading all your updates. We have some INCREDIBLE projects lined up this year!
Not much to report right now as I ran out of time to do anything more on timasomo this year so needed to finish not long after last week's update.
However, a little teaser before the showcase next week.
No movement this week. I'll keep working on it, but it is not going to be ready in time for the showcase. :(
The Showcase starts on the 5th, but it remains open! We’ve had people submit projects days and even weeks afterwards.
Still finishing up with a cold that is right in my lungs, so no singing for me yet, but I've done some more recording of just the guitar parts.
So this week was quite a productive week on my audio player. I finished coding the ability to add new wifi networks and sent off the next iteration of my case design off to be 3D printed. So I thought now would be a good time to list my goals for the month, to see how well I did in achieving them:
Completed
Completed
I am getting quite close, and may be able to finish by the end of the month
I have not touched this one yet, as it seems to be less of an issue now.
I have not done this one yet. Also, unfortunately my case kind of broke when taking it apart this past week to redesign the case, so I am unable to work on it as is. However, this should be an easy step once I get around to it, as I already have an oauth file on my audio player from authenticating the front end.
Overall, I am happy with how much I have been able to get done the past few weeks. This last week I will probably not get anything done on the player, due to the case breaking. But hopefully I get the new case back next week, which will be in time for the showcase.
I actually have no idea how to post in the showcase thread -- an incomplete first draft of a novel? Hard to really showcase. Especially since I'm not fully happy with anything I've written -- y'know, first draft stuff. Maybe just lightly edit and post an excerpt from each week? Idk.
In terms of progress this week, I wrote, you guessed it, twelve thousand words, like I have every other week. The writing this week was uneventful -- well, actually, that's a lie. The ladies I live with bought a lot of spirits for hosting, so I was writing tipsy for a couple days there -- easier than writing sober, and therefore inadvisable. But also thoroughly unremarkable. I'll certainly hit 50k words by month's end, so, if this was NaNoWriMo, that would be the goal! Will I have made something? Well, maybe about forty percent of a draft of something. Eh. Whatever. I'm not doing this for your sake kfwyre
