Lord help me, I'm writing a script again.

Anyhow, that seems to be the reason my BoM brain is seriously distracted by non-BoM stuff. Distracted enough that although I've been negotiating some commissions, I'm just going to have to put off doing them, or anything else BoM related, until I've got this other itch scratched.

I'm not disappearing (he says, like all the other times he's said he's not disappearing before disappearing), and every couple of days I might even publish some one-off chapters I've accumulated. We'll just have to see. But I do intend to check in here every day.

* * *

Oh, and the most recent branch? That's concluded now:

* Interactive: "The Family of Heather DowOpen in new Window.
* Public: "The Family of Heather DowOpen in new Window.

It was for a commission, only five chapters. There's a commentary thread: "Commentary: "A Trip Past the Supermarket" aka "Heather Dow""  Open in new Window.

Today's chapter—

* Interactive: "For His LoveOpen in new Window.
* Public: "For His LoveOpen in new Window.

—suspends the latest branch from a cliffhanger. But even if not a lot has happened on the page, this branch has canonically advanced the overall plot of BoM and opened up a new kind avenue for shenanigans--and for other things. A commentary/discussion post on the branch is here: "Commentary: You or Blackwell? "  Open in new Window..

Coming tomorrow, another commission. This one also takes place in an area that hasn't been visited in a long time.

In "Crap to the FutureOpen in new Window. Will, who was trying to get rid of the book, put it in the school time capsule. But it seemed afterward to have vanished from there, or perhaps it never made it in. At any rate, Will (and then Carson Ioeger) become increasingly convinced that something gamey is afoot: that people at school are being replaced with doppelgangers who have subtly altered personalities. Carson's best friend, James, seems to have been a victim.

In "A Collision of ConspiraciesOpen in new Window., Will has the chance to tell Caleb of his and Carson's suspicions. In the road taken, Will chickens out. Tomorrow will show what happens when Will talks to Caleb.

Some of these chapters may not be familiar to readers of the Archives version of BoM (the non-interactive version), because the Archive branch petered out with "The Biggest Secret in the SchoolOpen in new Window.. The missing chapters have now been added, so that you can catch up to where interactive readers have been able to get.
