Here in GOC it's a grey start to the day but we are off out to Norfolk for the day so I won't get a chance to do a proper post today. As I'm out tomorrow too it could be Tuesday before I get properly online when you'll get a full update and chapter.

From my phone,
Bye for now

In a story I've been reading here on BCTS, I noticed one of the characters mentioned both soccer about as frequently as football. This got me to wondering, do British folk use both terms about as frequently, or is that something just this author did. I'd always assumed football would be used, since that's what I usually saw in other stories, but I realize I could be very mistaken in that assumption. If there's anyone out there who'd be willing to clear things up for me, I'd much appreciate it! :)

The bills have been pounding the HELL out of me the last few months. If anyone hasn't purchased this book or one of my others on Kindle, I would really appreciate ANY support you could give me. I'm gonna work harder to write some new books for Kindle, one for Doppler and I want to look into setting up a patreon as well. In the meantime, here's a link to Hello My Name Is, my most popular book on Kindle to date :).

Yay!

When I originally wrote the screenplay for "Return to Innocence" I had the main character having to choose between the "good guy" and the "lost guy"
The good guy was Alex Foxx, a soon-to-be freshman in college who Jazz meets when he accidentally clotheslines her a a store. He's the all-round good guy who parents love
The lost guy was Kris Geremehl, her former boyfriend who has grown up over the years. They share a secret of a past abortion. Jazz's parents forced her and he didn't come to her rescue--not that he could do too much as a thirteen year old.

Hello out there,

I wanted to let everyone know that I started an official "Writing Walker's Path" on my website!

Here's the second episode for the latest chapter.

I'll still talk with everyone here but I'm trying a more professional approach on my website.

Thanks so much for being so great to me,
Katherine

Jesus said, “Whoever is not with Me is against Me.” He also said, “Whoever is not against Us, is for Us.” This was echoed in the sixties as “If you’re not part of the solution, you’re part of the problem.” I bought into this creed then -- and apply it now.

Over the last several months, I have cut ties with several long-term friends.

I ran the printer version of "The Answer" through text-to-speech on my iPhone. That pointed out some misphrasings and typos to my ear, for all the strange pronunciations it resulted in.

The typos, at least, I'll fix shortly. And I'll think I'll employ text-to-speech as a late proofing stage on stories from now on, to cut down on errors.

I absolutely hate to advertise or promote my books because in the end I feel as if I’m coming off as annoying.

The following ebook titles are on sale until Friday:
To Be a Different Someone:
And
Who I Am

(They are both here on the site, but this could allow you to leave a review)

I'm taking a short writing hiatus, there are a lot of factors but most of it boils down to just taking care of myself and my mental well being. My mother has been creating a lot of drama related to me being trans. In short, she's not taking it well. I thought I might turn her into an ally then come out to my father, but that is looking... unlikely. I plan on coming out to him probably in a few weeks time after directed (mandatory) overtime ends at work.

Hope everyone is well and is having a delicious devious weekend,

Hello out there,

Finished Chapter 9 of Walker's Path and finished the Intermission.

I am going to add Chapter 9 tomorrow morning so keep an eye out!

As for the Intermission. I'm not sure when I'll release it. I may just wait a week because it's not that big. It's mostly ready though.

After I post the Intermission I will have some questions for all of you so be ready!

I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
Katherine

When the problem is not a lack of ideas, but disinclination from writing, Pomodoro can help.

Hello out there,

I hope you're all having a wonderful Thursday morning.

I'm patiently waiting for my speech therapy and have some good news.

Chapter 9 is almost done!

If you haven't read Walker's Path know that it's a story about the revelations of a teen intersex kid.

Chapter 9 continues this trend.

I'm pretty excited to bring it out. I'd like to announce that Chapter 9 is officially the last never-ending 'night' segment.

The secret crossdresser's camping trip has turned into a time-travelling mystery when they fall through a Hole in the Sky into a strangely altered bronze age. Will Pete, Doc, Joe and the General survive what is thrown at them? And will they survive as themselves?

That moment when you wrap up another chapter in the current book under development and realize that oh hey, this book isn't going to be finished in six parts but rather seven. Otherwise that 'sixth' part will be over 40k words all on its own which is getting a bit silly in length. Trying to get this book's draft done so it can be edited and posted, but the muse is sitting there laughing with unexpected (but cool!) twists which are gonna make getting to the ending take just that much more.

for a few days at least!

I met with C.D. Rudd (creator of SailorSun.org and I Dream of a Jeanie Bottle) in his livestream last night and he did a sketch of Hallie Jones from Special FX, my story inspired by his SailorSun webcomic!

Isn't she gorgeous? Thanks, C.D.!

While browsing for something to read I happened onto the Alexa/Jenny/Jexy stories by Kris Traverse, part of the 69 airlines, Angels story universe. I was reminded of one story where Alex/Alexa is thrown out of their home by their ultra-bigoted father. Totally concerned about her partner, Jenny makes the journey from hell to get back to her and give her the support she needs. I'm sure that tale exists as a chapter in a related story but I can't find it. Bright ideas, anyone?

This just showed up my audible page so I thought I would share it here. Anyone listened to it? Is it any good?

After yesterday's low point in my finances, I realized that I was dragging my feet on this one. So I published my third Center story onto Kindle. Again, I've changed things to fit my own universe.

I'm home and the site did not burn down while I was gone. I didn't take a computer or even my tablet, just my phone so I really wouldn't be tempted to do my usual tinkering and fixing. Piper and Cat kept me informed and I did pick in a few times, but not much.

It's good to be home, even if an errant forgotten onion had a surprise for me after apparently three days too many in a cabinet. Whew!

Love and hugs,
Erin

I think that my BB sequel depends on the reader not only having read the first, but also caring about the characters -- the clique in particular -- and wanting to know what happens to them, and hoping that they can get back together. But seven years after the story was originally posted, readers have forgotten the story, forgotten the characters, or at least don't care any more about them.

Big, heavy, depressed sigh.
