So… yeah… we disappeared for a month, then promised another chapter on Monday, but are only delivering on Saturday night. But, hey, at least it’s up, right? …guys?
…anyone?
Come Memorial Day, The Mushroom Wars will be back in action! Sorry for the long delay, but our personal lives have gotten somewhat in the way of our updating, and needless to say, I hope it never happens again!
EXCELSIOR!
(with apologies to Stan Lee)
Yeah, so I didn’t bring anything home with me, so unfortunately there won’t be any new updates until next week. However, if you’re new you can still easily catch up for the 15th! Or, you know, Ask Guggenheim TM.
I told you guys we’d do it, and here it is: glorious Chapter 11! It’s short and sweet, and like all of the other chapters in GM, my favourite. Spring Break is for me next week, so depending on what’s going on, the update might be late. I’m not sure yet, so, we’ll see.
The reaction to Chapter 10 was probably one of the best we’ve gotten yet, so I hope Chapter 11 doesn’t let anyone down.
Oh, and in unrelated news, I think that we’re advertising on Dinosaur Comics now, but I’m not sure.
So yeah, this is coming in a little late, but here is the latest chapter of Guggenheim’s Mistake: “Best Served Cold“. It’s a short chapter, so I’m thinking that maybe we will double-post this week. Maybe another this Wednesday or Thursday? I dunno. In any case, here is an awesome ad from the BBC:
So, here is Chapter 9 of Guggenheim’s Mistake. It’s definitely one of the most hectic, I’d say. Aside from the previous posts about ads and the Web Fiction Guide listing, there’s not much else going on. ‘Real life’ has gotten in the way of Adam and me writing anything more, but I hope to get back to it soon. Don’t worry, though, as GM is already finished and just waiting to be uploaded week by week.
To dull the stagnation of the rest of the week, you can always e-mail Dr Guggenheim with a question.
Here is the listing in all its glory: http://webfictionguide.com/listings/the-mushroom-wars/!
If you’re too lazy to click, we also got a pseudo-review from the presiding editor:
The writing in the prologue is very silly and I suspect the story will get sillier. One sentence contains the longest string of words starting with “m” that I’ve ever seen in print. Could be a lot of fun if you’re in the mood for a story about mushroom soup.
She also gave it 4.5/5 stars, which is awesome.
But you’ll forgive us because that rhymes, right? …guys?
Anyway, here is Chapter 8.
So, for the past week or so we’ve been trying to advertise mwars to the general public by putting up ads on the webcomics Hark! A Vagrant and Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal (though really it’s the latter’s forum). I odn’t have any data in front of me, but I’m pretty sure that it’s bringing some traffic in. Probably most of your glazing over this got here through those sites. Yea or Nay, leave a comment and let us know!
PS I’ll try to get Adam to post something about it to-morrow or sometime soon.
That’s the title of Chapter 7. Don’t like it? Too bad.
I guess that we’re just about half-way through Guggenheim’s Mistake at this point. I hope that you three people actually reading this (hi Mom!) are enjoying yourselves; please leave us some comments to let us know how we’re doing! There’s not much else to really say, I guess.
The next book is still being worked on, so keep reading, and I promise you won’t have to hold on to your hats for very long after GM’s conclusion to get more MWars goodness (or badness, especially if we’re talking in Michael Jackson terminology).
Probably, since I am employing a cliché meme (but which one isn’t?).
Anyway, you may now calm yourselves (all two of you), for here in glorious MONOCHROME is THE PIG REVOLUTION!
And because I feel stupid with such a short post, here is a picture of Belgium (Ghent, to be exact):
