Project: Proclo - #027

 Got another person familiar with my stuff!

Recently talked to an old classmate who was interested in my advice when it came to writing and stuff. I also got given some recommendations in exchange, too!

Since that talk, I’ve finally thought it’s about time I got myself into some of the sci-fi cult classics, especially since I’ve been meaning to get into some of them in the past few years. Weird that I never really got round to getting into them, especially since, imagining from a stranger’s perspective, I’d picture myself to be into a bunch of sci-fi cult classics. 

I’ve also launched a couple places relating to this project…

First off’s a just-in-case sort of thing. I’ve made a Blogspot which’ll be the main place I’ll upload more polished comics of the characters featured in the project. Doesn’t matter how big or small, it’s just gotta be polished. You can see it >>Here<<.

The next thing I launched is a blog on newTumbl. I realised I never had a place where I could just talk about the more useless things relating to any of my projects, similarly to the way I do it on Twitter. Except this time, those notes won’t get buried under unrelated things. You can see it >>here<<.


That’s all I’ve got for now!

Project: Proclo - Log #026

Sorry I haven’t written in a while!!!

I know, it’s been almost a month since I last updated, but a lot has happened over the past weeks, in regards to this project! Unfortunately, it’s not the completion of chapter 5′s script, though… I’ll try to set myself a due date get that done sometime this month. I feel like I want to actually get serious with my script updates, from now on.

When it comes to the project’s info site, I’ve updated it a lot! It’s reached a stage where all the important elements are pretty much done and now I can just keep adding on new things that are important. 

Here’s what it looks like now:



I’ve also been working on the lore, a couple short stories, and some assorted future scenes, too.

Again, I’m sorry about the nearly month-overdue update. I should be updating regularly again, soon.

Starting a basics site project

I’ve decided to start a small website project on Neocities based around this story project. I felt that it was about time this project had a website of its own which has the purpose of providing summaries, basic info, relevant links, and other important things regarding it.

It doesn’t look like anything to fancy right now, but here’s what I’ve got so far:

>>Site Here<<

My HTML skills are a bit rusty from my last attempt, and I’m still a huge beginner, but I hope to actually get this one’s most important stuff finished, anyway!

I can finally move on...!

It took me long enough, but I finally completed editing and finishing off chapters 1-4, and added a prologue! This means I can finally carry on in the story from where I’m up to. I’m feeling good!

Pressure’s off!

I’m deciding to go screw it and put off the rule that I have to stick to the chapter that I’m working on before working on anything else. I feel like it’ll help me to get the scripts done faster if I get down my script ideas and stuff for future scenes on paper ASAP.

Starting that definitely helped get rid of the whole feeling of restriction, which was making writing a bit less enjoyable at the time, and I’m feeling pretty great. 

I just hope it doesn’t unlock any bad habits or anything, like working on so many chapters at once that I’m not getting a single one done. But hopefully, to prevent that, I’ll still work mainly on my current chapter and keep that a priority.

Another possible name change?!

I’ll be honest, even after the most recent name-change before this one, I’ve still never really felt proud of how the title and the name of the machine sounded.

I’m thinking about moving the name of the word featured in the title, and the name of the important thing in the story from “clonerion” to “proclo” because it sounds a little more “made up” than before, and plus, it’s got less syllables. There’s the advantage of the alliteration in the title for memorability points, if I make that name change, too.

I don’t exactly know if I want to change this blog’s URL and every other URL containing “clonerion,” though. That’s why I’ve been struggling, but I guess it wouldn’t hurt to make that extra effort. (It’s going to be a lot of links to update, though…)

Notitle2 - Log #001

Thinking about a concept for a new project...
Back when I was age 12-15, I watched and enjoyed these comedies about a bunch of middle/high-schoolers just screwing around and going through these totally bizarre situations. Only problem is, sometimes they’d end up doing 18+ stuff and I don’t wanna really consume that sorta content because that’s just weird (especially since i’m 18+ now).

For a while, I wanted there to be something that exists that has the same comedic energy as those shows I watched and I’ve been too lazy to find something of that description. So now, i’m tryna create a group of characters that’ll go through similar sorta scenarios, but instead of middle/highschoolers, they’re gonna be fresh college kids (18-19)!

I'm a bit too lazy to come up with totally new character designs, so I'll be taking some major influence from a few old character designs that I've come up with, already.
