Tinker Tuesday for March 17, 2026

This thread is for anyone working on personal projects to share their progress, and hold themselves somewhat accountable to a group of peers.

Post your project, your progress from last week, and what you hope to accomplish this week.

If you want to be pinged with a reminder asking about your project, let me know, and I'll harass you each week until you cancel the service.

A couple thousand words away from finishing my second novel (Xianxia series called Between Beast and Buddha). Looks like it's gonna clock in at just shy of 200k words. A bit meandering in places, and darker in tone than the first. I'm a little too close to the work to have an objective opinion on it yet, but I'm mostly satisfied, it's a necessary part of the story I set out to tell. Reader reception has been mostly good, but I'm not sure how the ending will land.

I really should get back to editing the first one. It would be nice to finally officially be able to say I have a book out there, instead of explaining web serials every time someone asks me about it at a party.
