tsukumodo

yo) about the changing of the order of editing Tsukumodo chapters, as you so kindly proposed - both you and ss were going at the last chapter of vol. 1 pretty hard. if you're not finished with it yet, can i humbly request you to do that chapter first? i thought about it and things seemed to coincide a bit: you're doing it anyway with ss and i just felt like i needed to tl the best chapter in the volume next after the first chapter (i need some motivation to keep going as tsukumodo isn't all that fun really). and by the time i finish said last chapter you will have probably edited the whole volume , so after that the order isn't a problem. sorry i didn't think of this sooner... PS. god, i love "future in the past" (tense)--Idiffer 03:45, 29 July 2012 (CDT)

hey! no worries, totally not a prob. (Just a heads up - I'll probably crap out at some point and get busy w/other stuff this week, so don't be so sure that I'll have gotten thru the volume by the time you TL it... :P) Grrarr 10:43, 29 July 2012 (CDT)

oh, hey. thanks for the update. but really, no need apologize. plus, i've been lazy myself (i have still have half of 'coincedence' to go) + i tl'd a chapter Boku wa tomodachi ga sukunai and have things to be busy with other than tsukumodo, mainly proofreading + my new job is pretty much hell in terms of work shifts. so all in all, i have no problem waiting. --Idiffer (talk) 22:51, 14 August 2012 (CDT)

Cool - well, not so much the work shifts being hell part...but glad I haven't been holding you up/you've been otherwise occupied. About to send you a PM Grrarr (talk) 00:02, 15 August 2012 (CDT)

Reminder to self: do "coincidence" then "present" Also, at some pt, make sure the prologues and other word-for-word copies of "what is a relic" in the various chapters are all consistent... Grrarr (talk) 16:13, 24 August 2012 (CDT)

Yo.

Wanted to direct your attention to an argument I'm putting forth here: http://www.baka-tsuki.org/project/index.php?title=Talk:Utsuro_no_Hako:Volume1_Prologue

Speaking of style, I see you're getting away from the "formal/academic/calcified writing style" - I think that's a really nice thing to do. It's one of my primary hobbies to look at different interesting writing styles, for example from Orwell and Russell (considerably different choice of vocabulary, tendency for longer, more complex sentences; "styled like a dusty BBC radio broadcast") to a translation of The Brothers Karamazov (short, clipped sentences delivered in a very matter-of-fact tone) to a recent nonfiction book on psychology for the masses (informal; American spoken vernacular), and so forth. Having to write for academia is pretty suffocating, so I hope you have fun with that 'getting away.'
