A snippet from my outline."So, Morgenstern. Do you want this war?"
"I don't want any war. But I do want my freedom." Xenon said.
"A war can be chains on any man who fights it."
"So can peace."
So small update. I am getting closer with finishing my outline. I will probably still be working on it for another mouth or so, I don't follow timelines so I don't know. I won't be posting anymore snippets for awhile as this part of my outline is too messy for that. 😜However, I am thinking about revealing my cast of characters.... Maybe.
And, I might, no promises, reveal just how many books is going to be in this series. Which that of course would explain why it is taking me so long to write this outline up.... *Cries* It's just too many words to count! 😭
So soon, I should start (or start again) writing the third book in this series, Glass Worlds! But you all know how that goes, maybe not for awhile still.
Yep... we sure do. XD Nice snippet! 😉

Yep, there's that life thing trying to get in the way of writing again. lol.
Thank you!
Same way for me right now... family is down so I can't write, *pouts* Np >.<

I hope your family gets better soon ❤
Hannah Schuck wrote: "XD..... thanks"Np... Though I just realize that you meant your family was visiting not sick.... Sorry, about misunderstanding. I hope you have a good time with them. =)
XD That is hilarious!! I thought about telling you what I meant, but ..... *laughs very hard* I couldn't! Glad you finally understood my meaning!! ;)

Lol, it really is hilarious! 😄 It took me awhile, but then I saw your update for Dissemble.... *still laughing* Well, I try my best. 😇
*Exciting Announcement*So the number of books in the Team Vergate series is:
------
----------
wait for it
----------
---------------
*Drum roll*
----------------
-----------------
--------------
-----------
16 Books! 😱
----------------
------------
No, wait I lied! It is not 16 books, who am I kidding. *Slaps hand on forehead*
--------------
------------------
It really is 20 Books!!!!!!! 😱😱😱
-------------------------------------
------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------
Well, actually it is 16 books.
It only becomes 20 if you count the special book, that I don't feel like talking about yet. And another three books that are part of a different trilogy that takes place in the universe that Team Vergate does with some of the same characters.
But, yeah, I don't even know what I'm doing. That's why I'm writing and taking such a long time with this outline of mine. But here goes nothing.
Written about 1,702 words the other day on my outline! I also found this little snippet to add.Princess tries to get up but falls into Fritz's arms.
Fritz smiles at her. "How com' it's always a strong man who saves the Princess at the end?"
Oh I see.... that makes sense now.What!!? When will you have time to write all that!?
*laughs at Fritz*
Hannah Schuck wrote: "Oh I see.... that makes sense now.What!!? When will you have time to write all that!?

Maybe learn how to write while sleeping? lol, it will take some time to write that much, but doable. =)
Well.... however you do it I'm excited for you!!
Hannah Schuck wrote: "Well.... however you do it I'm excited for you!!"Thank you Hannah! I am having so much fun writing it. 😊
I haven't had much time to write for a few days, though I might get some done today. =) In the meantime I have found this snippet from my outline:But if she really loves you, she won't care if it's cloth or a ring of gold, she will care that you are able to give her love back to her in the sweetest possible way. Kissing and rings may not be for everyone, they're just a symbol, it's love you must concentrate on, and love is patient, gentle, and kind.
Awesome!! Love is those things and so much more! 💖
Hannah Schuck wrote: "Awesome!! Love is those things and so much more! 💖"It is. Love is something Special. 💞
So I didn't get as much writing as I wanted to the other day, (the keyboard or computer did not want to write words (no, like really, one of the two stopped working in the middle of my writing), so I was forced to restart my progress at least once....) But I did get like 1,277 words written. 😊Here's a little snippet, but I think this is the last one for a while.... I think.
"So, I see sleeping beauty finally awakened, and without a kiss I might add. Though I'm not sure how anyone can sleep with Fritz around." Clayton said.
"And he finally remembers my name." Fritz mutters.
Yes it definitely is!! 😊That is awesome!! Love this snippet, xD
Hannah Schuck wrote: "Yes it definitely is!! 😊That is awesome!! Love this snippet, xD"
Thank you! 😊
I'm glad you like him so much! 😊 He's differently one of my favorites.
Hannah Schuck wrote: "xD How couldn't I love him!?"If only you knew some of the things he has done....
But even still, he is still lovable. 😊
Well I'm a very forgiving person.... to some people at least. xD So Fritz is still amazing! ;)
Hannah Schuck wrote: "Well I'm a very forgiving person.... to some people at least. xD So Fritz is still amazing! ;)"Haha, well that's good. And, yes Fritz is still really amazing. =D
Since right now I'm working on culture work for my series, I figure I can list the names of the different races there is. So even though you don't learn about a lot of the different races in the first book, you will see them in a few of the other books. So I don't think listing them is any kind of spoiler, I just won't talk about them.
There is nine main races in the series. Each race has a color that represents that race.
There is:
Green - Perfect's
Orange - Fabrilis
Red - Peregrinari
Blue - Nietherens
Yellow - Colonarius
Purple - Dicio
White - Thopurwhi
Gray - Kraytufirgray
The Forbidden Color - Terrans
Oh. my. word. Please let me read your book....! It sounds so intricate and amazing and if it has God then it's good! ;)
Aww, thank you Hannah! It is very intricate (well, some of it is). It does have God too. I am trying to keep the series Christian focus.Of course you may read them! That would mean the world to me, it would make me so happy! =) The first two books are actually already published as I'm still talking about the Team Vergate series, so when you're ready to read them, just let me know and I can e-mail them to you. I can't promise when the third book will be release though, (and book two ends on a cliffhanger note *Muhahahha*).
That's awesome! :) Well before I can read them I must clear up my reading schedule and that will take some time, but I will read fast. xD

I totally understand. Right now I have this very large pile of books to read, (though it also feels good as I will never run out of books to read.) I also have this very large pile of books to write, but we won't talk about that. lol
So I haven't updated my progress in like.... Well, in a couple of weeks. 😶 I have no idea what is up with that, except for life.... Hehehehe.Anyways, I really don't have a lot to update on. I won't be finishing up with the outline this month like I thought. Rats.... I'm still working on culture work (I'm working on the Colonarius now, so yay!) After the culture work I still have a little more to work for actual outlining books, and a few more character interviews to do.
Question: Should I show my cast of characters or should I keep them a secret for now?
Oh man... that's so great...Sounds like fun... *says sarcastically*
SECRET!!!
Thanks.... But it is fun! Lol! I just hope I'll be able to get it done soon.Secret it is then! Muhahaha
Hannah Schuck wrote: "Same... lolYes! I love surprises"
Haha! Me too! ;)
Still writing......
Arggg!!! It does! And life has been throwing its punches so I haven't even been able to work on it this week. *sighs* Well, hopefully I well get something written or edited soon. =)
Ik.... still working slowly on mine as well....
So I had some family emergencies in October and was unable to do much writing like I thought I was going to do. So I didn't get my outline done.... yet.So my NaNoWriMo project I want to work on writing my outline. Hopefully getting it all done by the end of the mouth. I think about 30,000 words or less will do the job. So I plan to write in my progress of my word count on this form thread to see how I am doing with it.
I'm hoping guys that I will be able to get it done this month!!!
11/3/18 ---- 917 words written. So far I have written 2,204 words towards my goal!
Good job!! dry I haven't been around recently.....
