Denor's Realm page news:

Current updates

Wednesday, December 15, 1999:
  • It's midway through finals week, my friends, so my time has been eaten up by studying and trying to finish my project at work before the end of the year. If I get the chance, I'll do an update this evening. If not, you'll see one on Friday. I've got Christmas break coming up, and after that things may get a bit sketchy in the update area again, but I'll try.
Monday, November 29, 1999:
  • Hey, what do you know, an on-time update. This Monday thing is working out better than I had initially thought it might.
  • Added Preparation for War to the story The Summoned.
Monday, November 22, 1999:
  • So much for updating on time.
  • I feel I owe you a bit of explanation. First of all, it's going to be a very, very long time until I next update for an an entire week without rest. I'm afraid I got a bit burnt out after that, and very nearly gave up the page altogether. But I think I'm ready to stop being all burnt out and start writing some stories again. So, hopefully with your forgiveness, I'll start the updates again.
  • I've got a bit of software that should speed up the updating process, but first I have to see if it works. If you don't see any new news after this line, it's because I'm in the middle of testing it. Trust me, there's more news.
  • And here it is - none of my stories were updated this time around, but as before, there's a good reason. Recently, I got a submission to be added to the page. This was right before my weeklong update, so I decided that I would put it up afterwards. Here it is, afterwards, and I still hadn't done it yet. So today I've posted the realm's first submitted story, The Price, to the front page. I also touched up some minor cosmetic issues, and the update is finished!
  • Hopefully - no promises, but hopefully - I can resume a regular updating schedule now. My break's over, and the stories should be coming Real Soon Now.
Friday, November 5, 1999:
  • Update's moved back to tomorrow - I should have known better than to make 'updating night' a friday night. What was I thinking?
  • Fixed the proclamation that said the ongoing series was still ongoing - since it ended monday. Hope I didn't confuse anyone.
  • See everyone tomorrow!
Sunday, October 31, 1999:
  • Happy holidays all - the final portion of The Driven Machine has been posted, and a few hours in advance of the deadline, just for appearances' sake.
  • The Driven Machine's Epilogue is up, finishing the series
  • And there it was, the 8-day updating extravaganza. Surprisingly enough, I met my deadline every day and managed to update. I don't know if I'd do something like this again in the future, though - it's more work than I thought to update every day. I sincerely hope you enjoyed reading the series. On Friday Denor's Realm will continue with its normal updating schedule, once a week (on Fridays) by 10pm.
Saturday, October 30, 1999:
  • Man! This one's right in the nick of time, if not a little bit late. I'm surprised I could write 12k in one hour.
  • Added Denouement to The Driven Machine
Friday, October 29, 1999:
Thursday, October 28, 1999:
  • I'm not early at all tonight - I had to reinstall linux twice :) But it's working, so I feel much better. And I finished the story, despite my problems.
  • Added The Doctor's Host to The Driven Machine
Wednesday, October 27, 1999:
  • Fixed the typo in the updates page -yesterday's update was labeled "monday the 25th" by mistake
  • An hour and a half early tonight! (Probably not starting a trend though)
  • Added Grey to The 8-day update extravaganza. Enjoy!
Tuesday, October 26, 1999:
Monday, October 25, 1999:
  • Almost didn't make it today - stupid dorms and their stupid mandatory fire drills.
  • Added Host to the story The Driven Machine
Sunday, October 24, 1999:
Wednesday, October 20 1999:
  • I'm not updating on my usual day this week for a reason: I'll be updating Sunday. However, instead of updating "The Summoned", whose turn it is this week, I'll be creating an entirely new story altogether - and finishing it one week later. To make up for lost updates in the past, and also just for that holiday feeling:

    Denor's Realm will be updating every day at 10pm from Sunday, October 24 to Sunday, October 31 with portions of this 8-part story.

    I hope you'll enjoy the extra updates for that week.
Wednesday, October 13 1999:
  • Added The Tyrant, part II to the story Nemesis.
  • Yes, I'm a week late. On the other hand, This week's update is on time! Which is truly remarkable, considering the next bit of news:
  • My 21st birthday is today! Surprisingly enough, Instead of getting drunk, I'm updating the page! Here's to hoping I make the same choice next wednesday! :)
Wednesday, September 29 1999:
Wednesday, September 22 1999:
  • Added The Tyrant, part I to the story Nemesis.
  • More delayed updates, mostly due to my inability to write on a deadline. I'm still working on creating features ahead of time, so that I have a library of backups to work on.
  • Traffic to this site is increasing! This is good news as it provides me with more incentive to actually update on time (which I will... really, I will)
Wednesday, September 1 1999:
  • Added Confrontation to the story The Summoned.
  • After moving from Maryland to Michigan, and then from my home in Michigan to college in Michigan, life has finally settled down long enough for me to update. Apologies on the lateness - hoepfully soon I will be implementing a system by which I create several features ahead of time, in case I'm unable to write a story on time. This way updates would be regular so long as I had access to a computer for about half an hour.
Monday, August 9 1999:
Monday, August 2, 1999:
  • Added Second Nexus to the story The Summoned.
  • So much for regular updates. Hopefully, however, I will be able to get back on track.
Saturday, July 10, 1999:
Saturday, June 26, 1999:
  • My computer should arrive next week, and with it, regular updates will resume! Failing that, I've discovered a local library where I can continue my work. So weekly updates are back again, every saturday.
  • Added Evacuation to the story The Summoned.
Friday, June 11, 1999:
  • I still do not have my own computer at my new location - therefore the lateness of this update, and the remoteness of the next. If, however, I recieve my computer before the next scheduled update, I fully plan on updating early.
  • A new series was created! Nemesis is the story of a man who is given the chance to right the horrible wrong that he committed years ago. Feedback is welcome!
Wednesday, May 26, 1999:
  • No updates recently - I've moved and I do not currently have reliable access to a computer. Next update is planned to be on June 9th, where hopefully I will have my own up and running.
Friday, May 14, 1999:
Wednesday, May 5, 1999:
  • Added The Spire to the story The Spire. This is the last installment in the series!
  • Still no Submissions, but I'm going to continue accepting them until I finish with The Summoned .
Wednesday, April 28, 1999:
Wednesday, April 21, 1999:
  • Denor's Realm is now accepting Submissions from people who would like to be on this page. If you write fiction in your spare time, send me a sample!
  • I've been designing a new layout (to work with multiple authors) for the page, which has consumed most of my time - so there will likely not be a story update this week.
Wednesday, April 14, 1999:
  • Added Final Battle to the story Cataclysm.
  • This marks the last installment of Cataclysm! Enjoy the story!
Wednesday, April 7, 1999:
  • Added Near Zone, part III to the story The Spire.
  • This is the next-to-last installment of the Spire! Two weeks from now, the series will come to a close.... And I'm going to have to come up with a new story idea! Lucky me!
Wednesday, March 31, 1999:
  • Added Gatekeeper to the story The Summoned
  • Tweaked the Guestbook a bit.
  • I'm finally updating again! My apologies for being so long, but surgery hit and then tests hit. But I'm back and updating, so you can all rejoice!
    (I hope nobody got the wrong idea - I mean, I said I'd be going out for surgery and then nobody hears from me for three weeks. I'm not quite dead!)
Wednesday, March 3, 1999:
  • Added Confrontation to the story Cataclysm.
  • Another timely update. However, this may not continue - I have surgery on Monday of next week, and as much as I hope that I'll be well enough to update on Wednesday, this might not be the case. If an update does not occurr next week, that is why.
Wednesday February 25, 1999:
  • Added Near Zone, part II to the story The Spire.
  • This week was updated on time - in case anyone is wondering 'on time' is one week after the last time I updated. So currently, this page updates on Wednesdays.
Wednesday February 17, 1999:
  • Added Invasion to the story The Summoned
  • I'm a day late for the update - things are back to normal!
Tuesday February 9, 1999:
  • Added The Falling to the story Cataclysm.
  • I updated again this week - on time. Things are getting spooky.
Tuesday Feburary 2, 1999:

  • Removed Amber's Journey from the "What's new" page, because it's not new anymore.
  • Fixed all the broken links on this page.
  • I updated on time this week!
Tuesday January 26, 1999:
  • Added Banishment to the story The Summoned
  • I've noticed that I've started some sort of 8-day updating routine in the past few weeks. I'm going to have to fix that.
  • Seeing as how I now have people on my news list, I plan on going out and writing a newsletter! See you next week.
Monday January 18, 1999:
  • Added Subversion to the story Cataclysm
  • Added these fancy dots to this page.
  • Found that I now have four subscribers to News From the Realm - new issues will begin next update!
Sunday January 10, 1999:
  • Added Habitable zone, part III to the story The Spire.
  • Note: I will attempt to update weekly, either on Saturday nights or Sunday afternoons. This week was delayed because I was moving back in to college.
