April 2024 Writing Journey Update

A lot has happened since I started this adventure back in 2018. I wrote a first draft for book 1 of a series and most of the first draft for book 2 before pausing. I wrote the short story Elwin’s Banishment in 2019 that became the origin story for my magic system in the main series I have envisioned. I was inspired to write Windweaver after creating a character for the 2nd book telling the story of the elf that became soul bound to a weapon.

Around the end of 2020 I stepped away from writing leaving my current projects on pause. In December of 2023 I decided I was ready to finish the 2nd part to Elwin’s Banishment. Using the website Channillo again, I decided to post a chapter a week for 24 weeks like I did before. it has been 14 weeks so far and I have already written more the completed part 1 Elwin’s Banishment. At this point, Elwin’s Last Stand will be the length of a novelette, around 50k works.

After finishing Elwin’s Last Stand, I want to go back to Windweaver and finish that before looking at the main series again.
