Been thinking of editing, and repairing Camp Kumoni and Princess and the Plague and publishing them on amazon like so many others here have with their works. Would there be any interest in that?
The Long over due, Long awaited for Chapter 12 to Wrong side of the bed has been finally posted. sorry it took so long but my muse wrote that cliffhanger and I didn't know how to write myself out of it.
I hope I did it justice.
I am SO excited about the next few chapters of this story being posted, I can hardly contain myself. I just want to post them all right now. but then what will you do after you're done bingeing on them?
Just finishing up Chapter 8 or is it 9? of this part of Erika's story. and feeling very accomplished.
bonus. a couple of the upcoming chapters won't fit into my 3,000 word episode average, so you'll be able to enjoy a few longer parts of the story.
For those interested. You might want to refresh and or get caught up on Camp Kumoni and Princess and the Plague. I just finished writing 2 chapters tonight that will blow your socks off. (proud author) Too bad they won't be posted until after Valentines day.
I know it has been a while since a new episode of P&P has been posted.
but I'm back!
For those who who haven't tried reading Erika's saga starting with Camp Kumoni, it may look daunting to see all of those chapters, but I've been told numerous times that it is a quick read. I hope you'll give it a try.
For those who have been patiently waiting. I hope I wont disappoint.
Lets have some fun
Okay, I have a few chapters of Princess and the Plague ready to go up and I seem to have my muse back. the question for you all is, Should I start posting what I have or wait another month or so to get more material before starting to post the chapters?
In March I suddenly became very ill. Chained to my recliner, unable to move for 5 weeks. Taking Oxy-codine for the pain for 5 weeks and then T3s and Prednizone for another three weeks. Many Dr. appointments, tests and scans later, they still don't know what caused my illness. Unfortunately ALL of my writing ceased and now my time is spent catching up with RL.
Ideas and adventures will hopefully be flowing and posting soon.
I had a bit of a problem with Characters high jacking my story this evening. Tricia insisted on going someplace I really didn't want her to go. I even tried stopping her and changing it, but she would have none of it. ::sigh:: Writer problems.
I have decided to do NaNoWriMo.
I even got my better half's blessing. I started a few days early because I'll be on a business trip this week and because of Thanksgiving
The good news is that I have 4 good chapters in the princess and the plague saga written and a path to go. one of the reasons I haven't written in a while is because princess and the jock was going to a dark place and I was trying to be too creative with it. I'd like to get a few more episodes written before I start posting.
Keep your eyes peeled.
It's been a very long time since I have had time to write anything.
Went to maybe start on Princess and the Plague again, but had forgotten characters and previous plots.
So I started reading it again.
Surprisingly and happily, I'm enjoying the story. I'm hoping it will get the muse out of her cage and back to work
I've also enjoyed going back over some of the comments and debate that this story created.
Anyway. Hopefully I'll be posting more episodes again before Thanksgiving
Okay, here is the deal. I'd like some input from all of you.
I'm having a difficult time proceeding with the next episode, because I can't decide if I should make Landon a Gendermorph or not.
Some good news. Tonight, after 14 months of not writing more than a sentence, I have written 2 pages. feels good to be creating pictures with words again. the bad news - I'm leaving on a buisness trip for a week and will not be bringing my laptop. I'll be just too busy to write.
after a busy summer of fun, I'm starting to get back to writing. This is hard after an eight month absense.
I am reworking/rewriting Princess and the Jock. I'm going to try something new with it since a majority of you hated what I was doing with it last time. of course you may not like it this time either, we'll see.
It may be a while before I post any of it because I want to get at least a dozen chapters written before I begin posting.
Just wanted you all to know that I haven't forgotten the Saga of Erika. ; )
I actually had this lastest episode of Wrong side of the bed written a few months ago, but one of my beta's suggested a few changes. Before I could do so, I had my car stolen, it was recovered 4 days later at the cost of $1,000 total due to towing and repairs.
I came so close. I was only able to wite 48,500 words for NaNoWriMo
It was the week of Thanksgiving that killed it. I had to spend so much time with family and food that I wasn't able to write.
My spouse would kill me if I suggested that I try again next year. I guess I was missed.
I did get a LOT written. 8 chapters of HaP are done, but not exactly edited. and I finshed off Nano.
Hope you give 'Healing a Princess' a chance. I see that some people are reading it. I just wish that they would give a little feed back even though it isn't a TG story.
NaMoWriMo is this next month. (I hope I have that right)
I have never particiapated in it, but I believe this year I will give it a try. 3 years ago I had a good writing spell during Nov. and ended up writing 35,000 words. So I hope with a little bit of planning I can make the 50,000 word goal.
I've finished editing the first 37 chapters of HaP and am working on a detailed outline for the next 10+ chapters. I also have Princess and the Jock to re-write since the first few chapters were disasterous with errors. I could also work on Rock,Paper,Scissors.
wanted to update you as to why there hasn't been any new postings. I have been in the middle of starting my own business. I have left corporate America and am now leasing a space in a salon to do hair. Once things die down a bit I'll get back to writing.
Woohoo! I broke through my writers block on HaP thanks in part to P&J. I've written a very important scene of the book and have another coming up maybe later in this chapter.
The down side to this break through is that I haven't written the next episode of P&J yet. but don't fear, I hope to have it written and up this Sun. Monday at the latest. (for those not too pissed at me to read it).
