In the Shadow of Fallen Towers

Chapter 13 is up, and it's a doozy.

Chapter 14 is up now.

I did a word count. I've written 12755 words this week (an average of 1822 a day). The total word-length of the story is now 24667 which means if I use a standard-length novel I'm 1/4 of the way through. Considering what's happened this is about right.

Chapter 15 is available now.

Hi guys,

Chapter 16 is available now. Chapter 17 is set on a timer to go up at midnight. It's officially the Sunday post because, looking at my time over the weekend I had time to write 2 chapters today but wasn't sure I had any time to write on Sunday.

Hope you enjoy.

Chapter 17 is live now.

Chapter 18 is up.

That means I managed 4 chapters over the 3 days of the long weekend. I promised a bonus chapter if I got 10 people commenting and, well, I got 5 commenters on the blog itself, 7 critiques on critique circle, 1 comment on facebook, 1 comment on G+ and a few here... I figure that is easily equal to 10 on-blog responses so I produced as promised.
Enjoy.

Chapter 19 introduces Dianxue to the story

Chapter 20 is up and I am now officially being (ineffectively) censored by facebook for "questionable content."

Ten to one says it's the half-page sex scene and not the pages and pages of martial arts violence that did it.

That's quite an honor, Simon. Congrats! Because we all know, facebook is not about sex. We all left that behind on MySpace.

[SimonM]

Funny thing is that I managed to get FB to reverse the block. It all just seems strange and random and arbitrary now.

Chapter 21 is live, now with a poll!

Chapter 22 is live.
