August Newsletter

 
Well, we made it past Tchang Zu. Can't work on Bai Tsa IMMEDIATELY, but I'll get to it when I can. Which may happen to be winter break. Time will tell, but my semester is looking busy already, and I haven't attended all my classes yet...
 
At any rate, Bai Tsa's episode is in the planning stages. Will her story be a repeat of the OTL, or will she attempt to resurrect ancient Atlantis? I won't spoil anything, because the chapter's only in the infancy stages right now; only being talked about. I'm still giving Jamey the opportunity to take the reins for the episode. Minus the fight scenes of course, because it seems that I rock at those, apparently.
 
After Bai's debut, we'll have hit the halfway point in Season 2. The line-up for the latter half of the season goes like this:
 
Episodes 7&8: The hunt for the Demon Portals is put on hold. Jackie gets a request in his regular line of work as an archaeologist, but the venture quickly becomes more than a simple excavation in Asia. Daolon Wong enters the fray to lay claim to a powerful, ancient artifact, as does Shendu and Bai Tsa. However, the ancient city is heavily booby-trapped, so the relic is not going to be easy to get to. With enemies and traps on all sides, can Jackie live through this thrilling adventure? And what role do the Jyutlong play in all this?
 
Episode 9: Xiao Fung, Demon of the Wind, is released on the world. What does he have in store for our heroes...?
 
Episode 10: Dai Gui is released from the Netherworld, and he teams up with Daolon Wong to take down Jackie Chan. It won't be that hard to vanquish the Earth Demon, surprisingly...
 
Episode 11-13 (Finale): Finally, Tso Lan the Moon Demon has been released. Aside from Bai Tsa, he will be one of the toughest for Jackie to take down. Tso Lan has plans for the Earth, and he won't let being grounded stop him from achieving his goals. Taking down the remaining Demon Sorcerers won't be easy...

August Post #1

 
Two more Demon Sorcerers coming up, and the Chan Clan will have to do their utmost best to survive the oncoming storms. Defeating these two Demons will not be easy; they're going to have to pull out all the stops.
 
First up, in Chapter Eighteen, Jackie rumbles with the Thunder Demon, Tchang Zu. Tchang Zu will be released before the Chan Clan can get to Hollywood, but he will not rule over Hollywood with an iron fist. No, the Thunder Demon will be taking a road trip up north, to the city of Seattle, to be exact. The Space Needle will make a fine Palace to rule from, and Tchang Zu has plans to demonstrate his authority over the bustling city of Seattle. It's up to Jackie and the Chan Clan to put a stop to his schemes and return him to the Netherworld, like Po Kong and Hsi Wu before him.
 
Next, in Chapter Nineteen, Bai Tsa the Water Demon makes her debut, and has plans of her own. Bai Tsa's plot is unknown at the moment, as I intend to give Jamey Gamer the chance to write her Chapter. But what I can tell you is that Bai Tsa will not be immediately sealed away like the others, like Hsi Wu before her. Unlike Hsi Wu, however, she will be free until the finale. And will be working alongside her brother Shendu to remain that way. Bai Tsa is a slippery one...
 
I can't say when Chapters Eighteen and Nineteen will be out, especially Nineteen, but I will say that I will attempt to release Eighteen before my fall semester begins on the 26. From there, writing might be stalled once more. Hopefully I will have made improvements after taking a creative writing class, so you all can look forward to that.
 
Until next time! ~Yaxon

July Post



Hello again. Yes, it's been eight months since the last post on this blog, and seven months since I last updated JCA:A, or just about. College kept me occupied up until May, and then I went on a vacation with my family, and then I got a serious case of writer's block...

You may be angry with the lack of updates, and perhaps you have the right to be. Chapter Seventeen has been putting me through the wringer; it's probably the toughest chapter that I've had to write for, and may come out slightly longer than normal chapters.

Chapter Seventeen sees the return of Queen/Dark Jade. I'm not a huge fan of the character, but I know a lot of people are, and that's part of the reason that this chapter is so difficult to write; I want to do the character justice, even if I'm not too into the character. I've already got a rough idea of how I want everything to turn out, and now it's a matter of writing it all out. Once Chapter Seventeen is completed, I hope to have an easier time writing chapters, as we will return to the ongoing battle between Jackie Chan and the Demon Sorcerers, starting with Tchang Zu, and then Bai Tsa. After Bai's debut, we've got a two-parter that was NOT part of Season 2 originally, and will foreshadow the future a little. From there, the rest of the Season features Xiao Fung, then Dai Gui, and finally, Tso Lan for the Season Finale.

I'm looking forward to getting Season 2 completed. Season 3 will see the introduction of a new character and ally of the Chan Clan, and the debut of the Jyutlong as one of the main antagonists, alongside Daolon Wong.  

That's all I've got to say for now. Will write more later.
