Here I sit in Sue Towers, quill pen in hand - well it's a keyboard, but what's poetic about a lump of plastic.?
Outside it is dark and the wind is coming up, (too many curries). My typing finger is wearing down to the bone as the story just gets longer and longer.
First I thought that I could do the story in one, easy to manage and digest lump. Then it got too long and as I know that some readers have a short attention span and anything over one thousand words might cause a brain freeze (that's an ironic joke by the way as I am exactly like that) I decided to do it in two parts.
Then I got all excited and my finger nearly sprained itself inputting the words on my gas powered computer. I had to resort to using my left finger too; it got that bad.
The cat is now miffed with me as I keep on removing her from my lap. She's not like Angharad's Bonzi, all creative and helpful; my cat is one of those whose idea of fun is putting claws into my legs and purring loudly as she does it.
The result of all that is that the story now extended to three parts (part 3 to be posted shortly).
I thought that I had it cracked.
But no, I still haven't finished it, so I have taken an executive decision and will do a fourth part. I am hoping that it will be the the final part, but don't hold your breath, the story might go further. I hope not as my fingers desperately need some rest and tender loving care.
Anyway, watch this space and thanks for reading my semi-literate ramblings.
Where's that glass of wine?
Hugs
Sue

take your time. don't work
take your time. don't work against a deadline. not in time and not in length. just let the story unfold and write it down.
there ain't such thing as a too long story. and knowing you, the wait will be worth it.

Glass of wine?
Mine is 750 mls.
No wonder 'Secrets' is taking me so long; I keep finding plot-thickening ingredients -and more bottles.
S.
Well at least...
...you've opted for bottles rather than boxes - you probably wouldn't be in a fit state to do much (if anything!) after 3,000 ml of wine...

Wow!
A Sue Brown story that doesn't stop. This is so much better than extra prezzies under the tree at Christmas. Thank you Santa (and Sue).

I thought it was me ...
... having a senior moment ... again :) Because I could have sworn this was slated as a 2 parter and here we are waiting for 4, supposedly of 4, though I doubt it somehow.
Admit it - you can't stop :) Don't bother your gain is ours too.

The Story Won't End
We might get a bit of resolution, but Hannah will continue to be part of Penmarris for the rest of her long and beautiful life. Oh! what wonderful things she is going to experience.

Potential Plot:
Please have adequate wine available!
Lady Dotty's friend the Police Commissioner has Mike arrested and tried for child pornography.
Hanna is adopted by Dotty.
There is a celebration cruise on Sam's boat and during a violent storm during the cruise, Sarah and Hanna are washed overboard and feared drowned.
Both however are washed up on a semi deserted island and find shelter in an abandoned house which has food and shelter.
Sarah's constant talking drives Hanna almost to the point of suicide.
However they are spotted by a RN rescue chopper just in time.
Further medical tests show Hanna is really a girl with bad plumbing (the leaks) and has corrective surgery and becomes her real self.
Sarah also has surgery on her Larynx and has a VL installed (vocal limiter).
Hanna now works for Sam & Abby at the art gallery and has become a loving cousin to Heather
whom she now adores.
And they live happily ever after until the next episode of 'Penmarris Place'
You are allowed to giggle!
