Progress Update 3/16

I received a comment on an earlier post about contextualizing where I'm at in word count and just wanted to paste my response here as well:

Hey! Thanks for the support and following along with the development. I totally understand the curiosity for something more concrete and I wish i had clearer answers to give.

Here's where things stand as of today: One major path is complete, its an earlier ending than the others, so it was quicker to finish. The other major endings (2-3 more depending on how you define it) are still left to write, but the complication is that each of those endings still are taking into account the choices from plot that continues after the first alternative ending. I haven't officially reached endings 2-4 narratively though. There's still plot to complete before getting to what is labelled as "D-DAY" in my outline. Updates havent been as detailed because its just been plot progression until I get to that sequence and once I do reach D-Day I would feel more confident in saying we're in the home stretch.

I know this isn't a concrete answer you're looking for, but I do genuinely appreciate your patience. I'm committed to getting this done and working on it as consistently as I can. Thank you again and I look forward to keeping you updated as I bring this to a close.
