The rest of Series 2 has been plotted out. My biggest problem has been that the arcs I wrote were two sentence summaries, and it turns out expanding them in to bigger plots was more of a task than I thought.
However - there are now thirteen plots ready to be written, and while I have introduced a few new plot arcs than I thought, but I think it has all turned out as I wanted.
So - hopefully I can start writing the chapters. My plan is still to write three episodes ahead, so I have two episodes to write (x02 and x03), then I can start posting the episodes.
So - we shall see what we shall see.

Western Sky Series 2 - Update
Well - Series 2 is going (kind of) well. I have completed the first episode (but given that I have been planning that for a long while, it was pretty easy), and I have a number of episodes plotted out. Of the fourteen in the series, I am missing 2x06 and 2x07 (Foundations), 2x09 and 2x11 (although 2x08 and 2x10 are both plotted), and then the finale episodes (the last three episodes are a single story. Which I guess is what comes of watching Doctor Who a lot).
Foundations are giving me problems (given that it was supposed to be the finale to Series 1, you can see how many problems!), so I moved on to plotting the rest. I think tonight is going to be spent finishing 2x09 and 2x11 (and if you have been paying attention, you might notice there are some episodes I am giving you titles to, and others that I am not. This because there are some titles that are possibly spoilers, and I don't want to be spoiling!), then try to figure out 2x06 and 2x07, then work on the finale.
I have decided that I am going to plot out all 14 episodes before I move on to 2x02, because I have a suspicion that what happens near the end of the series will affect how I write some of the stuff at the start. And I don't want to have to go back and retcon it, cause that kinda thing blows.
So - if you are waiting for Series 2, that's where we are up to.
