I’ve been proofreading another novel today and it took me about 10 hours to do just the first pass.
I normally do three passes before I send off the corrected version as checked, but it’s the first time I’ve been burned out this hard.
The novel is done in a weird present tense too so it’s hard to work out the grammar for some sentences because it reads like past tense.

See the problem with having six chapters a week to schedule is that I’m going to start running out of things to talk about.
Until now I’ve managed to get by through only scheduling the night before they upload. This lets me slip in the latest up to day news and musings.
But there’s only so much news one can obtain in a single day!
I might have to start thinking of some extra things.

I finally managed to move beyond the Daihasei Festival in my Index fanfic plotting.
Now I’ve reached the 0930 Incident, also known as the Academy City Invasion Arc.
This arc is a big deal because up until now my protagonist has refrained from getting overly involved in the main plot out of fear of derailing the story and creating a bad end. But the small ripples of their involvement finally cascade into a wave that alters the course of events and they’re thrust into the spotlight in an attempt to create an alternative happy ending.

I intend to plot to the end of Old Testament (Season 3 for the anime only’s) then I will start writing the first chapter properly.
Which brings me to my next problem, I really really need to name the main character.
He’s supposed to be a British exchange student, but I don’t know what kind of name to give him.
Proper English name? Typical Index style psuedo-English name? An English-Japanese hybrid name? A Japanese name?

It’s the second chapter of the day! That’s right! If you thought a chapter two days a week wasn’t enough, well now you get two chapters two days a week! That’s four chapters a week! Blimey!

To top it off, this chapter is the first by translator that will be taking over for Silva!
According to my notes the new translator is Snoring Dragon.
Hmmm…
I wonder if there’s some hidden meaning here?

Big news guys!
I have to go outside tomorrow!
It’s a big problem!
Oh wait…….that’s not the news apparently.

The news is that Demon Sword Maiden will be getting a second chapter release in just half an hour!
What is this?! A double event?!

I should really write something here but it’s 4:30am and I am REALLY TIRED.
I got tunnel vision while watching Railgun S and totally forgot to do anything else today!

Well I was also plotting out my Index FanFic.
I finally reached the Sister’s Arc climax. I had quite a bit of trouble working out what to do for this arc since I didn’t want to change it too much, but also didn’t want to risk leaving it out because of how significant an event it is for any fan.
I think I struck a nice balance though!

Also I’m relying on you guys, think me up some ideas for “space” magic will you?
So far I’ve got things based on planet orbits, dyson spheres, sunspots and stellar cartography.

I have only one thing to say today.

Go check out the brand new Demon Sword Maiden chibis!

Thank you for your time.

I’m going to re-edit this chapter in a bit (I actually somehow skipped over this one by accident! Just don’t kill me!)
Update: Turns out I’m too lazy, I made some minor fixes though.
