Accidental Chapter

I woke up early this morning and while looking at my files, I discovered that I had started a chapter of Bian but never finished it. So--I finished it.

I'd like to go ahead and post it but it ends with a cliffhanger and I've got too much on my plate to commit to doing another new chapter soon.

Sigh.

So, unless I get some active clamoring to see it, I think I'll let it rest until I can get back to the whole series.

Anybody want to comment?

Hugs,
Erin

Walking with Dinosaurs

I've had these insane thoughts flitting through my head about a person, or family that finds themselves living with Dinosaurs. I haven't worked out if it is a time travel story, or if they were on a spaceship that took them there. The more I study, I am not sure IF present day humans could live at that time because of differences in the Atmosphere. And I don't know if the soil of the Earth of that day is terriformed enough to support plants and animals that humans can eat? I haven't worked out a premise for how any TG content could happen. And, I haven't written a thing yet.

Twice Removed issues

This is just a note to let everyone know that there will again be no Twice Removed this week. I've been trying to get the new chapter done, writing and rewriting several times but it just doesn't feel right and since the story will be coming to a climax soonish I don't want to rush it by putting out something I'm not happy with. My muse has been going crazy on MSPD and I Wish lately but she's kind of being a bitch where Twice Removed is concerned.

Author Request

Friends,
I have a silly request.
The ninth story in the Lee Corcoran story arc (Cheerleader Series) has 46 reviews.
I am told that crossing 50 is an important achievement from Amazon's perspective.
I will soon be adding to this series and at that point, the comments will all go on the last story in the series. I'd really like to get to 50.

If you enjoyed the book and did not leave a review, please consider doing so.

Thank you.
DD

Does anyone here think this plot could work in any way

I am curious. Theres been a number of stories and books about an ambitious girl piloting against a favored brother in a monarchy type male dominated society and turning him into a girl so she is suddenly favored and she seizes the throne from him
And they are cool stories and I am enjoying him

but im thinking of another type of story.

Flash Point

She'd seen it coming. Ever since Harold Westlake had made his announcement that he would be running for President, Kitty had been trying to warn her friends and teachers just how bad things were going to get. And yet, no one was doing anything about it. No matter how much she sounded the alarm, everyone kept telling her to just believe that things would work out.

Hyperverse timeline

A lot of people wonder what order the various Hyperverse stories happen in and while most of the stories are meant to be standalone there is a general timeline. I will be posting this timeline to the Hyperverse main page and updating it as new stories are added. These are in order from the earliest chronological point in the stories.

Bianca and Marcos have been on my mind

Maybe because it was about this time of the year that the contest was getting underway, but Bianca and Marcos have been making themselves known to me again. There was so much there to work with once I went back and looked at the story "Were to start" again.

Butterscotch 5 Preview Free for Everyone

Marjorie headed directly to the lingerie department where I began practicing my cringing. The sum total of taboo femininity in sight overwhelmed my brain and my consciousness threatened to strobe out.

“She’s serious,” I muttered to no one.

She had a bra in her hands and approached me, saying, “Let me use this to get an idea of your sizes.”

The "County Sheriff" Stories

Thanks for all the nice comments on my recent postings in this series.
As I have hinted, there is more of this series to come. I havetwo more stories under development. I wrote more than 3000 words for one of them yesterday. The other story is far more problematical. It may well see the end of the series but it is not easy to write because of the crimes involved. I had an idea pop into my head around 02:00 this morning which may make writing to a conclusion a lot easier. Only time will tell on that one but it is shaping up to be another two part story.

free story idea

As I already have too many ideas started, I'm letting one go free: A group of sailors encounter a siren and are saved by a crew-member who is a closeted trans woman. realizing this might be a chance to rid the world of the dangerous siren and maybe even rescue some men, the trans woman is encouraged to find as many others like her to form an army that would be immune to the siren's call ...

Tommy - The Trials and Tribulations of a Girl?

Just a reminder that my current story, "Tommy - The Trials and Tribulations of a Girl?" is set in the 1960s. It's currently the summer of 1968.

Kenndy has been assassinated, Johnson is the president, but is not seeking reelection. And we're deep into the Vietnam war. Dr. King and Robert Kennedy have been assassinated. And, our two girls have witnessed an anti-war demonstration on campus.

Chapter 210 will be out tomorrow (Sunday)

Butterscotch 4 Chapter Preview Early for Patrons

Previews of chapter 1-3 are open for everyone to read. Here's a sample of chapter 4:

Arno’s table companion called out to him and the strange Mr. Pink let my hand go and went back to his own table. But not without a parting pat on my cheek and a confidence shared in a stage whisper, “You’re going to have such fun!”

“Toodles,” Marjorie told his back and he waved at her without turning around. The man waiting at his table looked like an ex-professional bouncer who had made it big as a financial consultant, or maybe Dwayne Johnson just beginning a campaign for president.

Hey everyone.

I'm afraid that I probably won't be putting out chapers of Twice Removed or Syryn's Song this week. I have the toothache from hell right now, it's been going for the past few days and it's causing so much pain that I can hardly see straight, so concentrating on writing had been problematic at best. I already have chapters of I Wish and MSPD ready to go, so they won't be affected, but this has really cut into my concentration for working on much of anything at the moment.

Ready Reads 2: Fantastic Gadgets (Gone Kablooie)

I'd said that I'd do Ready Reads today, but . . .

See, there's a problem. After culling out repeat authors, stories that were FAR too short, and stories that were suggested but inappropriate due to requiring outside reading to understand, I was left with a grand total of four -- count 'em, FOUR -- suggested stories.

READY READS 2: FANTASTIC GADGETS

Here are the suggestions that passed muster.

Butterscotch 3 Chapter Preview on Patreon for All

Davey can't figure out what Marjorie sees in him. She's older, richer and way hotter than he is! Then he finds out Marjorie may be a lesbian. Now he's really confused!

Butterscotch Cover

Davey's nickname is Butterscotch because of the color of his freckles. But Marjorie seems to think he's much too sweet to be a boy!

Now to start laying the framework down for Book 4! :D

Hope everyone enjoys!! Comments are always treasured and are huge motivations to get off my lazy butt and back to the keyboard! Thanks to all who have also sent me such encouraging messages! Massively appreciated!!

A question for my readers.

So... I have a question. I've been having some motivation issues, as far as Stuck in a Rut. I love the story, and I have plans for it... but just haven't been motivated to write in it much.

So I propose to you that read it a choice.

1. I plug on, with chapters irregularly dropped on occasion.

2. I put it on the back burner and release infrequent chapters, while putting out a new story: "The Mysterious occurrence of Missy Hinde"

3. I put it on the back burner and release infrequent chapters, while putting out a new story:: "Right to Life: Brain donor."

To Writers With Stories That Have Multiple Parts

Are there any particular criteria you go by when posting the parts of your story for how long between each post?

Why do you wait [X] number of days?

Is there a general consensus as to how often you should put up a new part to a story?

Recent read

Recently I came across a book on Amazon that sounded like it might be interesting to read from the description of it. "Cinderella Boy" by Kristina Meister took a little different twist on a theme that would align with many stories on this site. Boy caught by sister trying on her clothes, sister helps him and things take a turn toward a love affair with a boy he has been crushing on for a long time. I'm not going to say much more so don't do a spoiler. It is $3.99 for the Kindle edition.

The Last Boy Scout and his stories, and a challenge.

Having just finished what is posted by TLBS, I am left wondering. WHAT THE HECK EVER HAPPENED TO THE LAST BOY SCOUT???

There were vague promises and intents to continue his writing, but nothing now for 9 years!!

Is TLBS still alive? If so, where is he/she? Why did he/she stop writing?

TLBS was a master/Mistress of the written word who sucked the readers into her worlds and made them CARE about her characters and their lives.

I blame the pizza

Yeah, it was all the pizza's fault, first I had to make it (well load it with goodies at least), then I had to cook it and lastly I was forced to eat it! by the time I'd finished dessert that was an hour gone. Of course, if I'd got back earlier, if I hadn't uploaded my ride stats before eating, well you might've seen this a bit earlier, but I did so you didn't.

The General's Son...

I don't know the exact title, but this story deals with a General who puts his son in a private school and he comes out as his daughter. It could have been a Military school? It could have been one of Nancy Cole's stories, and perhaps she reworked it?

At any rate, I have not found it and it is likely that I'm not getting the details right.

Ideas?

Thanks

Update II You Are a Meany

Here is an update and plans for You Are a Meany. I am close enough to being done with the revised version of the story that by next Friday I should have part one up. I then will put another part up weekly until the entire story is up. That is unless I finish writing the story early, then I will be posting the part daily. Then after the last part is up the story will stay up for a week. I am taking it down I do want to try to publish it. I have a great editor working with me so the editing part will be on par with the self-published titles.

Hugs N Love

Just not my week

Sorry about my lack of posting this week and the fact that I likely will have to put off posting new chapters of both Twice Removed and Syryn's Song until next week. This week has just been extremely busy and I'm just sooo exhausted right now and lack of sleep due to nightmares and insomnia hasn't been helping. I haven't had time to write anything, and I barely even had time to post the latest chapter of I Wish. Then on top of my laptop dying earlier this week, my mouse died yesterday for the desktop and I had to find a replacement, killing what time I did have for writing. :(

Daniel Ford, co-creator of Quillian

Sadly, I just got word that Daniel Ford who created Sam Valentine (an unpublished comic strip he and I worked on) died yesterday. Daniel was also co-creator with me of Quillian. He was a talented young artist, only 38, who died in his cobbler shop Tuesday, November 5, of complications from diabetes.

It hits me pretty hard, we had been friends for more than fifteen years and I will miss him a lot.

Take care of yourselves out there.

Hugs,
Erin (Joyce)
