It feels weird not to be posting Star Wars stories for the first time in months (excluding the couple of Mondays I may have missed) and it’s going to take some getting used to. The future of the Ashukahwa Archives’ Star Wars writing is well underway, though. Let’s have a look at the situation since last week.
First up is Frontline, the sequel to the Between the Conclaves series. As expected it’s still in its preparatory stages, but there has been some progress. The storylines of the four acts have been largely finished, the characters divided among them and a few ideas that will fill in certain plot holes (as well as, I believe, really improve the story in general) have also been added. I believe I’ll be able to finish this stage this week. After that I can move on to setting up the story’s ‘script’, which will mainly entail getting the various scenes in the right order, so that the actual writing will be that much closer.
Then there’s the content that will be taking the Monday slot for at least a couple of weeks. Last week I spoke about posting background information for the stories, such as character profiles and event descriptions, and as of today that’s going to happen. The first character profile will come online not long after this post. It’s still a very basic profile, containing general information about the character and a biographical summary of what is known of them based on the currently posted stories. I’ll be using the Wookieepedia template for this, so a more detailed biography, as well as “Personality and Traits” and “Powers and Abilities” sections, an overview of the character’s appearances and hopefully illustrations will be added later on. Of course, as new stories get posted and new information is revealed, the profiles will also be updated. Furthermore, I’ve decided to set up a databank, a convenient place where the aforementioned profile and all other information will be stored and sorted by category, so that it can be accessed with ease. It’s still in the setup phase, but expect it to appear soon.
And that’s it for the Star Wars update this week. I’ll keep you posted on how everything went next week. For now, I hope you’ll enjoy the content and may the Force be with you!
Ever since a group of shoes held a birthday party a long, long time ago (though in a galaxy not that far away) a little boy’s appreciation for creation was born. And so, throughout the following years shoes partied, a dinosaur travelled through time, oddly shaped football players went on adventures, a young wanderer became a knight, a comedian rose to godhood, Jedi fought an evil empire, a war between cyborg warlords and human-insect hybrids engulfed the world… The boy had learned how with only words on paper (and from times to time a few pictures) he was able to bring people, places, even entire worlds to life. By now that little boy has reached almost the third decade of his life and his love for telling stories has not ceased. And finally, long after he had planned to, he has decided to share these stories with the world. Whether you are a new or already familiar face: welcome to this little archive of mine! This is a place where I will, finally, actually be sharing my writing with others. It will feature pretty much anything I feel like sharing, both old and new stories, fan-fiction and original content, and probably some non-fiction added in at times. So, if you like reading, writing, stories (or me ^_~), drop by, drop a comment (I can’t promise I’ll get back to you quickly, since I’m horrible at that, but I’ll do my best) and, drop it like it’s hot. … Sorry… ^_^; In any case, I hope you’ll enjoy yourself and I look forward to seeing you around!
