A bit of both. I have a mental guide of the setting, characters and where I want the story to go (including some full scenes), which varies in concreteness. Some of these (namely the lore and some of the major characters) I've been writing down. Smaller elements, like minor events and some descriptions, I come up with as I go. Overall, the direction I've been taking the story has evolved quite a bit and is much more solid than when I wrote the first chapter.red.wolf wrote:This story has a great build to it with nearly 0 noticed inconsistent parts. Are you writing as you go or do you have a pre-written guide that you work from?

Re: Human & Lupusad - Of Men and Wolves
This is by far the most professional story I have read on these forums. It reads like a novel you would pick up from the library by a big name author. Giving examples would take forever but this story really blows me away.

Re: Human & Lupusad - Of Men and Wolves
AAAAHH, just read this on the CF forums, it's good enough that I want to write fanfiction for it. (I'll PM you my ideas, if you want) What kind of tech-level is this world at? Doesn't sound like there are any personal guns yet, maybe only cannons because of the powder-keg metaphor from that last chapter.
Wish there were drawings for this...

Art always sounds good. Some updates and knowing really what a lupisad (spelling bad) looks like.

Re: Human & Lupusad - Of Men and Wolves
General update; Chapter 6 is finished and getting proof-read. Also got a lore document essentially ready to post as well.
I did request a piece of art on the Chucklefish forum, and someone is apparently making it. But I haven't heard back since, so I may need to find someone else. People can always submit something to me, as well.
And I would be genuinely interested to hear your fanfic idea. I'm humbled by the fact that you'd even consider writing some.
It's at a Victorian- or Edwardian-era level in terms of steampunk. There are personal guns in the form of flintlocks, but swords and the like are still commonplace. Steam power is becoming commonplace, but electricity is new and not widely used outside of some expensive forms of lighting and heating.anonfox123 wrote:AAAAHH, just read this on the CF forums, it's good enough that I want to write fanfiction for it.

Re: Human & Lupusad - Of Men and Wolves
I put the idea in a convo on CF forums. (Gawd it's weird talking to people in two places at once. You would rather I PM'd here or there?)

Zyanya reminds me of Florence from Freefall. The stories also have features in common.

Re: Human & Lupusad - Of Men and Wolves
I haven't read it, admittedly. Looking over the plot outline on WikiFur, I can kind of see what you mean. But there seems to be a very big difference in motivation. Sam basically took Florence's contract illegally for his own gain, whereas Jakob took Zyanya in out of sympathy. Admittedly, though, the legality could still be debated since Zyanya is essentially undocumented.Bachaddict wrote:Zyanya reminds me of Florence from Freefall.

It's worth reading! Like Zyanya is helping her own people, Florence works for fellow artificial intelligences. They also both explore the issues around interspecies romance.

Really hoping this isnt a dead story.
