It's taking me longer than I had hoped to get the second book in Sarah Carerra ready for posting, but it's coming along well. I'm waiting on the last piece from my editor now. When he's done, I should have enough written to continue to post every week while writing the rest.
For now, I wanted to give you a sneak peak of the new book, and let you know that it is coming soon. Enjoy.

Book 2: Summer Medley - Preview
I had planned to go over to Emily's house for the afternoon after we arrived home, but Dad asked me to sit down on the couch in the front room while he went to get my mother. I didn't know what was going on, but it sounded like I was in for a serious talk. We hadn't had one of these in quite a while.
Eventually, my parents came in and Mom sat down next to me while Dad sat down in his normal chair.
“Am I in trouble?” I asked worriedly. I didn't think I had done anything wrong.
"No, honey," my mom replied with a smile that instantly put me at ease. "This is about your surgery."
"Oh," I said. The worry that had just left me came flooding back tenfold. The doctors had determined that I was genetically female, but I did not have what was normal for a girl between my legs. They wanted me to undergo surgery to create the external genitalia that someone would expect me to have.
I wanted this surgery. I really, really wanted this surgery. But the thought of having it also scared me to death. I'd only ever had major surgery once before. When I was 10, my family was in a car accident and I had lost much of what had led doctors to pronounce me to be male at birth. Brett, the boy I had been before that accident, died that day. I didn't know it for six years, but that was the day that Megan had been born. She wasn't complete yet, but this surgery would finish the job.
"If it's okay with you, we'd like to schedule the surgery for a week from tomorrow," Dad said.
A week from tomorrow! That was so soon! I didn't know if I was ready for this to happen that quickly! I knew that my doctor felt that I should have the surgery as soon as possible to prevent any problems that might be caused by me having a period, but I was still shocked that it would happen so soon.
"Are you okay?" Mom asked from beside me. When I met her gaze, she looked really worried.
"Yeah," I replied. "It's just...it's scary!"
She immediately reached around me and wrapped me in a hug. "Oh, honey," she said. "I know that this is scary, but you need to have it soon."
"I know," I told her. "And I want it. But..."
"I understand," she interrupted me before I could find the words to describe my feelings. This was a big step. Mom held me in that hug for a few minutes while I came to terms with what they had told me. It wouldn't be long before my body matched my new driver's license.

Totally uncalled for!
This was totally uncalled for. Teasing us like this. It's almost a WHOLE WEEK until Friday. You could have been nice, and not done this to us. How many fans will be sitting around now, waiting to see what's going to happen to Sarah/Megan next...
Now, to be more serious, I really enjoyed the previous story, a lot. I only have one "complaint" (if that's the right word). I wish Megan had been transgendered, rather than genetically female with an abnormality. Yes, this gives her the option to be a mom (which I'd love to be - even at my advanced age), but I think I would have enjoyed more how you worked through those issues, along with all the rest.
Based on what we saw last time, I'm sure this will be an interesting ride. I expect that someone will find out about her years living as Brett. This will cause issues. (Tabloids get hold of it, and it makes no difference what the REAL story is, headlines like "Boy pretends to be Girl On Stage" or "Boy Made Into Girl for $" or some such wouldn't surprise me.) It won't matter what the facts are in the story.
Wonder what Josh's reaction will be that Megan's having surgery... What about when (not if) he finds out where? How will he react? Will he react to the truth or to the tabloid answer? Enquiring minds want to know. :-)
Thanks, *sighs*

Tabloids Lack Punch
Perhaps I'm wrong. But tabloids lack the punch
they once had.
The story has been interesting because it is
interesting and well written. Can the author
maintain that interest once Megan is no different
than the girl next door. And a kiss between
Megan and her boyfriend are no different than
a kiss between the girl next door and her
boyfriend. Gone will be the taboo, if any, and
somewhat thrill straight persons receive. It is
my opinion, and I stress "my," when I say most
people are a little "kinky" if not somewhat bent.
This has been based on observation. An example,
many years ago a took a class where all you had
to do was listen to lectures. Hundreds were
enrolled but most left after signing in. One
week it was advertised that an admitted
homosexual was going to deliver a lecture.
Standing room only.

If it's the end of the day
And the story picks up on the next day it could be a sort of a prologue. ;)

You're a flirt and a tease and I can't wait until it comes out.
No really, I can't wait...must......have.....Sarah......fix.....now........
luv and hugs,

I will be waiting
Megan don't worry we will all wait until you are ready!! But don't be surprised if we are all a little anguish waiting!! Especially after that little cliff hanger you just gave us.
Seriously This has been a really good read and it will better when the second book starts.
Thank you Megan. Are you on facebook? If so look up Pamela Ann Reed and ask to be my friend. I am starting a little netwok called a Cyber Trans-Family. I started about a month ago and already have almost 800 members. I even had a girl from Egypt. Anyway take care!!
Fare thee well,

Nice little teaser...
[email protected] ...Megan. We've been waiting (not so patiently) for more.
"Bloom", has been a nice little diversion, but "Sarah's" fans are ravenous. We just can't get enough of our favorite pop star.
It makes me feel so sorry for Brittany and the rest. I've never been this much of a fan of anyone before. It almost scares me, in some strange way. I think I finally understand how my sister felt about Donny Osmond.
Looking forward to further adventures.
Hugs in Anticipation,

Take your time, take a breath.
As much as I would like to see this story resume, this story is not as important as you and your well being. Love your writing but I will be patient.

That scary feeling is quite real
It was for me and I was 51 years old when I did it!
There's an unreal quality about it because it is so seldom one hears of it - like it's a made up thing.
I know I couldn't take in the enormity and just zombied my way through it all. My adrenal gland must have shut down completely under an overload stress situation!
Sarah will zoom through it - she's young and healthy.
I hope no one recognises her! I guess as Megan she'll be OK
Still pleanty of room for fun and excitement
Sarah has her surgery, her fears of it and the risk of exposure. Two risks really, that the press hears of it, whatever cover story they have fails and somehow they learn she was a boy. Well she isn't just they thought she did but the press would LOVE that.
Will it be Sarah or Megan in the hospital? Megan I assume and if Josh learns of it what will happen? He is so smitten by Megan it will tear him apart, hell she could wake up one day in the hospital soon after surgury to Josh sitting by her bed crying his eyes out. But will he learn of her secret and will it matter now that we know she always was a genetic girl?
Then there could be surgical complications, people recognizing her as Sarah despite the wigs and such. She may be late to *come of age* but where will it stop? How will it affect her career if she quickly grows more womanly? Um, how well endowed is her mom? Hey fans are fickel and if she looks too adult she may have to quickly adapt her music and style or be a hasbeen. The Disney's of the world want them young.
What of her best male friend, will they remain friends or will he make a play for Megan/Sarah's affections? What of her best female friend and sometime co-song writer, will their friendship and careers flourish or will they drift apart despite their best interests? Will daddy revert to being her agent or remember he is her dad too? Will their close relationship out who Sarah really is? I mean, Josh's mom almost guessed.
And here is her career, her number one fan, and then school again for the rapidly blossoming woman. And given her youth and beauty will advertisers, film makers want her? What of relatives and family members? What will they think of Megan?
Just a quick list, there is more.
Have fun, We will wait ....

Sarah's Surgery
What - she gets surgery with a week's notice and after waiting 18 weeks for financial approval, I have to wait until the end of January. Life in the real world just ain't fair.
Great story and waiting a few days for the next episode is nothing in my view.

May the sun always shine on your parade.
My own teaser
Tease me will you? Just for that I will now tease back with a bit about an upcoming story of mine.
Once upon a time there was a boy, or was there?
Stay tuned.
:P~~
much love ane warm hugs,
Connie
SQUEE!
That is all ^_^
Wheeeehehehe. I anxiously await your continuation of this wonderful story :-D
Scary yes
But oh so necessary.
