Taxes are filed

I’m constrained every year as the critical forms aren’t ready until mid-February. So, once they were done, I filed ASAP. I’ll be dropping the state taxes into the mail this morning (because the software wants $19.99 to e-file the state, I can hit print and use a stamp).
-
I’ve pretty much switched to paperless notifications, so most of my information reaches me by Jan 31. My state requires e-filing, so that’s as free as the Feds.
-
I’d e-file if it were free...yes I would!

Unfortunately, didn’t get #8 finished tonight… maybe this week. If not, next weekend (which might also be a 3-day weekend, crossing my fingers).
-
Hmmm… I can move this scene from #8 back to #7….. Keeping it in #8 makes for a better cliffhanger, but moving it to #7 makes #7 a tad more complete. Oh, the debate I’m having with myself.

@Wilde_Guess Yep, that’s why I’m debating now, before I post. I’ll need to resolve this before I post either 7 or 8. Yesterday, I had moved it to #7, however, based on tone it belongs in #8. So, this morning, I moved it back. After all, a cliffhanger is typically an incomplete scene.
-
True, that. Also, the move can “require” another 4k of writing to more fully develop an idea. That’s not a bad thing, but can confuse the reader if you do it after the chapter(s) were originally posted.
-
That was the #5 debacle, about 2.5k but same thing. I try to adhere to the principle that a reader shouldn’t have to re-read an episode to understand things, though, of course, that can be unavoidable at times with a work-in-progress. Thus, I basically want to be confident in the episode/chapter before I post.
Cross my fingers, I’ll get #8 drafted tonight. (If so, I’d expect #7 to go up next weekend.)
-
No muse, I’m already involved with another story, stop trying to tempt me with a new one….stop, STOP! Onward with the struggle.

Today’s been productive. Posted Jefferey episode #6, and nearly done with the draft to #7 (along with a dabble or two in #8). Depending on how productive I am this weekend, I should be confident with posting #7 next weekend, but no guarantees. (Always, TBD until I actually post it).
