@aetusart.comI beaked The Bonding: Book Two of the Avian Age over to my awesome bet@ re@der friends. At last, I can take a break. #theavianage #furryfiction #birds
@aetusart.comyay... I finally finished pre-beta editing of The Bonding. It will go to bet@ readers tomorrow!
@aetusart.comHigh praise. 🙏 Thank you.
@aetusart.comI’m time for Halloween, we have plumpkens (plump orange #chickens).
@aetusart.comI hope you meant “can’t wait” 😅

@aetusart.comThe sea provides and the sea takes in the balance life dwells in balance, love creates. -Hanu, Song of the Sea
@aetusart.comSome #conlang from The Bonding. Hanu was an influential poet of the Rebellion and wrote most of the Song of the Sea, which is mentioned by Pepro in Whiterock. This poem is quoted in The Bonding, so I translated it to Orshzowan also. Enjoy! Post 1/3

@aetusart.comI've been giving The Bonding a last, light polish before submitting to bet@-re@ders, test-driving it as it were. So far only minor alterations & I'm happy to say that the feels are still strong, the action engaging, and the spice is still hot, even for me. Can't wait to share it with the world!
@aetusart.comDon’t worry, it’ll trickle down (yeah just like sewage flows downhill)
@aetusart.comGulldamn wr1t1ng-related bots are as ruthless as nest mites. You can’t use any auth0r-related terms without them picking it up & AI-concocting a reply meant to make you think they’re a curious re@der or publ1sher. Only remedy is to block them as ruthlessly I guess.
@aetusart.comTell that to the keto diet people. They do lose a lot of weight avoiding carbs, but some eat buckets of fat & it’s pretty hard on their gall bladder.
@aetusart.comI use a questionnaire that covers several aspects.
@aetusart.comI have "finished" editing The Bonding: Book Two of the Avian Age. One more polishing pass and it goes to the beta-readers, which should take me a few days. What is The Avian Age? Have a look at aetusart.com/avian-age #theavianage #furryfiction
@aetusart.comI'm pretty sure you're a bot responding to my tag, but wth, I'll answer. The POV stayed First Person, I just alternate which character is the voice. In this case, chapter was all from one character, but some action in the middle could best be shown by another character. That's why I split it into 3.
@aetusart.comI made a diagram to illustrate my current state of consciousness #writers #insomnia #deadlines
@aetusart.com3k words today on The Bonding. Edits slowed by changing POVs, breaking mega-chapter into 3 smaller. Translated some quotes to Orshzowan since written before conlang existed. Hopefully have it done by Monday, can give one final read before sending to beta-readers. Thanks for all the encouragement. ❤️
@aetusart.comAnother day, another 7k words on The Bonding. It’s at almost 120k. I’m not trying to make it bigger, but I’ve created a monster of a world, a huge cast of birds, and a multithreaded plot that feels like it won’t quit. Almost there though. Then I can sleep again for real.
