#scilicet...

The posting of the rewritten chapters of Scilicet… continues  today with two chapters for Valentines day.

Chapter 36 - Ecce Homo

The posting of the rewritten chapters of Scilicet… continues  today with a chapter detailing the team up of Batwoman, Robin and the Question as well as  an apology for going radio silent for so long and a promise at least one more rewritten chapter will be posted within the next few days.

The posting of the rewritten chapters of Scilicet… continues today with 3 chapters. I meant to update sooner since two of those chapters have been finished for like a week, but it slipped my mind because the high school I’m teaching at went back to in-person instruction so I had a lot of prep work & worrying to do. -_-

Chapter 32 - Lux Ex Tenebris

Chapter 33 - Rara Avis

So for anyone who doesn't know / couldn't guess, "Scilicet REWRITE" is my file where I am rewriting my giant monster of DC Universe fanfic which can quickly be summed up as "What if Batman was a woman?"

It is over 50 chapters long, and can be read on A03 here. There’s also a bunch of sidestories etc on A03, including a fanfic of my fanfic which a friend from college wrote. Scilicet... also has it’s own Tumbler over here. I've been rewriting it since November of 2019 and recently posted the rewritten chapters 30 & 31. This rewrite started as my Nanowrimo Project, was continued over December, started being posted in January, got more work done during Quarantine and then went on pause due to job search until recently when I had some free time to work on it. The plan is to continue with the story once I finish the rewrite.

So far the rewrite has been pretty minor, fixing spelling/grading, rewording some stuff to make it flow better, fixing small continuity hiccups resulting from having written the original over such a long time, etc. So it wouldn't really be all that interesting to post a snippet of it, as it would be almost identical to the fic as it currently is on A03.

So instead I'm going to give you a somewhat criptic hint at something I am debating doing which wouldn't really "hit" during the rewrite, but would factor in pretty quickly once I finish the rewrite and blaze ahead with new material. To do this I'll give you this quote, from a chapter I haven't rewritten yet:

“I meant what I said earlier.” Rachel whispers, her gaze falling to her lap as she speaks. “I can’t—this can’t be a new beginning.”

And follow it up with a little bit of Author's Commentary:

The posting of the rewritten chapters of Scilicet…FINALLY continues today with two chapters and an announcement that I have a job! Literally the day after I moved in with my father & step-mother due to not having a job I found a local long-term substitute teaching job which has now become a full time job!

Chapter 30 - Quae Nocent Saepe Docent

The posting of the rewritten chapters of Scilicet…continues today with a single chapter due to TheRaven1845 leaving a comment on A03 which got me out of the funk caused by a lack of a job and general COVID / Summer malaise / getting invested in other stuff like trying out Twitch Streaming. Hopefully more chapters coming soon!

The posting of the rewritten chapters of Scilicet…continues today with a single chapter because summer is making the author loose all sense of time and motivation and she made the mistake of buying Okami for the Nintendo Switch and has been spending waaaaay too much time playing it.

The posting of the rewritten chapters of Scilicet…continues today with the last two chapters from the great COVID-19 rewrite discussed in this post. Don’t worry, the rewrite continues, this just marks the end of what I worked on during 2019′s Camp Nano.

Chapter 23 - Brevior Saltare Cum Deformibus Viris Est Vita
