Another week, another update on our book progress. Writing can be hard, mostly because our lives are so busy that we have to scrape and find time in between all the important events in our lives, like the Supreme Court legalizing gay marriage and the release of Arkham Knight for all video game platforms. Don't worry though. As eloquent, intelligent writers we are able to have a civil discourse with each other and find a good system for motivation and making sure we stay on track with the book. For proof, see the actual Gchat conversation below: 

 NOA: please help I’ve lost my soul to Arkham Knight 

 NICK: MEANWHILE OUR BOOK LANGUISHES IN THE DARKNESS 

 NOA: Chapter will be done today. Apologies. 

 NICK: If you get it to me today I will write mine tomorrow morning. No more slipping or breaks or whatever until we're done. This has to be a priority for us to make our deadline. We've both been wishy washy with our due dates. We should send each other reminders and stuff. 

 NOA: ok 

 NICK: Account-a-billa-buddies 

 NOA: no 

 NICK: YEP 

 NOA: That's it. I'm done. I quit the book. 

 NICK: ACCOUNTABILLABUDDYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY 

 NOA: I quit 

 NICK:  

 NOA: NO. I will not take shit from a man who gets a day-long hangover from one bottle of champagne. 

 NICK: DO NOT MOCK ME BECAUSE MY BODY IS HEALTHY 

 NOA: I will not take shit about health from a man I’ve seen clean out a bag of Donettes in under 3 minutes. 

 NICK: DO NOT MOCK ME BECAUSE DONETTES ARE DELICIOUS. ALSO ADDICTION IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM. 

 NOA: I have the same issue with beer. So, I get it. 

NICK: Oh. That's alcoholism, Noa. 

 We're going to lock ourselves in an un-air conditioned shed armed only with an Apple II computer and a dot matrix printer until we finish this thing in shape for submission, or we collapse from the heat. At that time we'll have another sample chapter to share with you. Until then, thanks again for purchasing, dearest readers.
