Hello!

It's me. Aduro. I'm going to do something a little weird. I'm going to edit The Code and post updated edited chapters. As an aspiring author, I often wish I could read an author’s first, second, and third drafts of their novels and pick their brains about the changes they made or how the story developed. I love a good ‘How to Write a Novel’ book or article, but sometimes feel that, without a full example, it’s somehow lacking. So, I decided to do it myself with my fanfic. I will be editing each chapter of The Code, and explain what changes I made in hopes to be helpful to other burgeoning writers out there.

Also, I completely forgot how the story ends. I’m rather embarrassed about it. I’m hoping that some re-reading and edits can help me remember, or come up with a new ending, so that I can finish this series.

I'm hoping to update every 1-2 weeks and work myself through The Code and maybe the other stories in the series as well. I will also be cross-posting over to Archive of Our Own with the updated chapters so that there will be a neater and cleaner version of the story instead of all the edited monstrosities I'm about to create, lol. I will be putting the revised chapter after the original.

QUICK UPDATE: 10/15/2020

I've been gone a while. Honestly, I went back to grad school and I'm trying to work at the same time. Yeah, it's not working. So, I will be cutting down my work hours in November (fingers crossed) so that I can get back to editing/updating/writing. So sorry!
