#i forgot i gave dewar a scouter

So, I hate to be That Guy™, but when are you gonna drop the chapters of Luffa you did during January?

No worries, Dear Reader. If craving my fanfic makes you That Guy™, then the world could use a few more That Guys™. Sometimes I kind of lose sight of the audience, so I appreciate you taking the time to ask.

First, let me do a little self-promotion. For those of you who need a link, Luffa #1-182 is up on AO3. For those johnny-come-lately types who aren't keen on starting from the very beginning, Chapter 142 makes a pretty good jumping-on point, as it begins the section of the story that has all the DBZ characters in it.

But to answer your question, I had some trouble with Chapter 183, and it needs some polish before I'll be ready to post it. Similarly, there's chunks of, like, 188-ish that aren't finished yet. I can't offer a timetable, because I don't know how long it'll take me to get them ready.

Just to explain my process a little bit, I've been doing these Nanowrimo.com goals to get the words out, but the emphasis is on quantity, not quality. When it's over, I have to go back and edit, but I've learned that its a lot easier when I wait a while first. I really didn't like the way #183 looked at the time, but I'm sure it won't seem nearly as bad now, as opposed to ten days ago. And that'll make it easier to deal with.

My plan is to have all this stuff up by March 31, because I'm doing another Nano month in April, and this stuff always goes smoother when I clear out the old business. I'd rather have it done by the end of February, but I promised myself I wouldn't rush it. My true goal for the year is to get the fic up to one million words, and I'm well on-track for that.

But like I said, I sometimes get so wrapped up in writing this thing that I forget that there's actual people reading it, and I don't want to leave you hanging. And now that I'm talking about Chapter 183, I feel more interested in getting back at it. So we'll see.

Anyway, here's Dewar.
