I'm sorry I don't have a good reason for the delay...

Sad to hear of John Le Carre's passing tonight. I was first familiar with his work when Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy was first dramatised by the BBC in 1979 and was hooked on the stories.

It's fair to say I borrowed a little from the genre, particularly for the Unaccounted Gains books.

A real loss to literature. Rest in peace.

Here on BC, Kissy and Rory are going to the game where her friends have never seen the real girl. Meanwhile, on Patreon, the last chapter of Butterscotch is up for Patreons!

In a few days I will post the final chapter for my mini-serial "The Womb of the Unknown Cheerleader."

A few days after that, I will unpublish the story. It is scheduled to form part of a Doppler Press book called "How You Play the Game." Rasufelle is putting the finishing touches on another enticing cover.

It will join over a dozen other books I've donated to BC. I take no part of the revenues generated.

Jingle all the way!--break-->

So the second week of Advent has seen slightly more settled weather hereabouts, mostly dry and even a spot of sunshine! I've had my first Chrimbo card, from my Grandson (well Mummy had to do the writing bit), I just have to work out how to get his presents up to Yorkshire - there are so many! I think I have a plan, do you think the USS Enterprezzie will be able to do the honours?

While listening to Terry Goodkind's "The Nicci Chronicles #1" sequel to his "Sword of Truth" series something was said about misunderstanding, misconception, misinterpretation or misperception of information, what is not important

I'm pretty sure that the story was here at BCTS

Story:- Fantasy, involves magic and mythical beings
Setting:- Modern World (I think)

Scene:- Protagonist's elder sibling jumps in front of the attack of the younger and gets hit

paraphrased dialogue

It was suggested that I return to this story and write some more. I've done so, like much of my writing, it's freestyle, in other words, it evolves as it goes. I see the characters and follow where they lead me, sometimes it takes me in unexpected directions, episode 9 of this is no exception. I'm not sure when I'll get a chance to write the next one, but I will continue it as time and my other works permit.

I hope you enjoy it.

To the Core, which had originally been written and posted as a serial, is now up on Amazon for Kindle, with paperback option to come soon. Book I contains the first part of my litRPG fantasy epic, with the rest to appear on Amazon soon as well. If you haven't read the story yet, would like to read it from the convenience of your Kindle, or would like to support me, please check it out and leave a review.

Well, it's been a while since I started Legacy of Earth. I will be posting this in larger chunks at least until I get through the first 100k words. I hope you all enjoy!

Legacy of Earth: Birthright Ghost Ship By Daniela A. Wolfe A hundred and sixty years after the fall of the Qharr Ascendancy and the end of the occupation of Earth, Jek, a descendant of Lexa Briggs, sets out on a quest to find his long-lost mother, but when he discovers her ship adrift in space, and it’s crew brutally murdered, he unwittingly unleashes a mysterious new enemy upon the galaxy.

I've been trying really hard to finish the new chapter of Apocalypse Dawn, or anything really the past few days, but it's just not happening. For a week, since I got my medical coverage sorted out, I've been trying to find a new doctor, or at the very least someone to renew my prescriptions for my hormones and meds, but so far I can't even get so much as an intake appointment for eight months to a year. The walk-in clinics won't write a new prescription for me either, unless I have a standing one from a local doctor.

Sam's visit to the mall becomes a game of hide-and-seek when he spots Del wandering the aisles.

All I know is what I've read in books.

Supposedly, readers get a great deal of enjoyment out of guessing what happens next. How will Emily react when Jacob tells her that she is trans? If the author has made that answer plausible in the story the reader will feel good about continuing. If the answer has been guessed correctly the reader pats herself on the back and reads on -- looking for more self-affirmation.

There has been much discussion about whether are not writing a synopsis is preferable to writing a complete story.

I know, I know, I know. I write too much. Cacoethes scribendi. And sometimes my stuff looks as if I am so keen to get on the table it is half baked. “It reads more like a synopsis” at least makes it sound like I have a recipe!

So where is my novel. Well, I am not ruling anything out, but here are my excuses:

Sam's transformation continues, now including what he is required to wear according to his contract. He's really becoming a WunderGirl.

Just a quickie for all the Gabfen out there - the next part of the Gaby saga was finished this evening and should be available on Kindle in the morning!

An unwritten contract does exist between the reader and the author.

A comment yesterday on one of my stories brought this home to me one more time.

A few years ago, I tried to write a story that would create a pile of revenue for Erin through Doppler Press. That effort failed. I have no interest in reading age regression/baby stories and shouldn’t have tried to write one. I donate my books to Erin and she receives 100% of the revenue. Unlike the other twelve of my books published by Doppler -- this one doesn’t sell much and received poor reviews.

Trying to edit a comment I just posted, but everytime I try to save it I get "Error 503 Backend Fetch Failed". What's the problem?

Happy Sunday!

Just a couple of updates on various stories:

Sam may not be the only person at WunderGirl getting more than bargained for!

Hey everyone, sorry about this, but I don't think that I'm going to get a chapter of MPSD out this week. It's been kind of a tumultuous week (though a lot of it has been in a good way) and I've been behind on writing and everything because of it. I'm worn out and I don't have any energy so I think it best I just take a day or two to rest, relax my brain, and try to get back on schedule for this upcoming week. I can't wait until I get my medical card so I can see a doctor about getting back on my meds and hormones and actually feel energetic again.
