Hey everyone,
I haven't gave many words after I stopped doing the project before the last Summer. Since then as you may know I've been writing the book that will continue and expand the story even further. Let me say that in last half year the story has grown more than I've written last five years and that's a fact.
History
I started the project year 2007. I quickly completed first 9 chapters of 10. Then I decided to remake the campaign and I finished 6 chapters. Then another remake and now I've finished 9 chapters. I decided about half a year ago that I will not create the interludes but those can be easily read from here.
What happened 9 months ago?
Why I didn't finish the campaign back then? Because I simply lost motivation as I've lost many times before. Fixing endless bugs, adding new abilities and improving or adding new systems to the gameplay. Those things will eventually get boring. But as we know, there are some problems with the campaign we can never fix. I tried and I failed.
But there were also some private things too that I haven't told before. I realized I cannot forever live with my parents doing this campaign and in the meantime do some random studying without any motivation and completing them just barely. So I needed money and I put those donation things but they never really worked.
So I went to a few jobs but those didn't work either. I never got paid. So in other words I kind of got depressed. As I'm such a positive man people can't see it from outside. Even my best friends. We Finnish people are just too stupid and we don't talk about these things even to our closest ones.
Future
Like I've said many times beofre, I am writing a book. Hell yes I am!
There are five phases. I'm now at the second phase(the longest and the hardest one). 60% completed!
1) At the first phase I simply design the book.
2) At the second phase I write the book.
3) At the third phase I check what I've written, fix grammar and write some parts I haven't yet written(skipped for some reason).
4) At the fourth phase I give the book to my friends or my family so they can read what I've done. We fix together grammar errors I haven't found yet and perhaps fix some other things. At this phase I will also start doing TCO once again. This phase can take some time because people those who help don't have all the time in the world and that's why doing TCO is using the time wisely.
5) I start to search a publisher or think about putting the story to the internet. Also here I can do TCO too or start the second book planning and writing. Well, a lot of things has been planned already for the first 5 books.
(Axobada, Yurgimar and Zeemnan all the way to other three worlds and so on.)
There's always a possibility that I can start doing TCO at any time if I feel like it.
Final words
Doing TCO and writing the book has been such a ride of joy and sadness. Nowadays I've just started to love feelings where I cry for happy and beautiful things. I just hope that I can give you something with these words and with these stories.
With joy and tears
With neverending determination and optimism
And with burning burning heart I go forward
Until there is no further to go on
