    re No Life Forsaken:

    STATUS: As of December 2023, Erikson says he was about 3/4 of the way through writing the novel when he "realised that I was writing two novels--not one. And so structurally, it was a mess. And so what I had to do was step back and reorder basically everything I had done up to this point. And then having reordered it, I realised I needed to start adding some bridging scenes and bridging chapters that could link them back up and make it a bit more of a cohesive storyline as opposed to two. So that's kind of what I'm hammering away at right now. It's weird to be working on Chapter 4 knowing I've got, I don't know, 17 chapters already written past that.


    Was this about No Life Forsaken or WiS?

    THE GIRL AND THE STARS by Mark Lawrence - As many of us have had the pleasure of finding out by now, Mr Lawrence pretty much always delivers. I really enjoyed this one on it's own merits, though it's the implications involved in the larger story that takes this from good to fantastic.




    Just wait until you read the next two books...

    QT doesn't post for a month and you're all rallying around getting him back.

    Meanwhile Old Aptorian hasn't posted since September and nothing?

    No threads or PMs?

    I see.

    Your absence was too painful to talk about Apt, that was the only reason why it wasn't discussed...

    Life got nuts for a while there, probably the last 6 month so I took time away from everything to get myself back on track.

    Probably worst bipolar depression I had for 6 years leading up to Christmas which lasted 3 month, I was coming out of that then I broke my leg and dislocated my ankle.

    Then my ex step-mother died, then my best mates dad died, after that another close mates mam died all within the space of 2 weeks.

    My friend from work was diagnosed with terminal cancer and my dad is in and out of hospital with an unknown illness where he just keeps collapsing...

    So aye, it was all a bit too much but now I feel like I am coming out the otherside of it now and life again feels on the up.

    That's so much. I'm glad it's not continuing to roll in like a wave of bad news.

    Here's to a wave of good!

    Wow, that is an overwhelming amount of stuff to go through. So glad you are feeling better!




    Thank you all. Honestly it got to the point where every call or message I got I felt sick, I was just expecting something else to have happened... you cannot live like that.

    But ultimately it's made me a better person, there was a lot of life lessons in such a short space of time.

    Dude that is brutal. Glad you're coming out the other side!

    For me I had a check up and my hard work with eating and exercise etc means my diabetes levels have dropped quite significantly and I don't need to go on any meds. Makes it all worth it!



    Cheers Tiste and mate, that's awesome news, it's not easy to do so massive congrats!! Makes the hard work worth it for sure!
