MORE UPDATES!!!

I got an email from Kris J about my concerns for I Should Have Known Better no longer fitting the theme for the 80's Anthology... I have been given the green light to sub it through normal channels as just another story... I will still have it finished and subbed to Kimberly B by late next week, but I have had a title change because the knew one fits my storyline so much better.

New title: It Started With A Whisper

Updates!!!

Well today I just past the 25K mark on: I Should Have Known Better. and as I told you all I ended up emailing the wonderful Kris J and will find out what she suggests. I will let you know when I do.

Though I must admit I love the twist this story has taken me to... This is definitely a one off story, but it could so easily turn into a whole series. The characters for me are so intriguing and I want to know about them all, and not just the two main characters I have chosen for this particular story.

I am hoping to get it finished and sent to my beta reader by the 9th of March so he can go through it before I make any last minute changes and submit it to MLR... Depending on what Kris J says the title may stay the same or it may change completely.

"Sometimes the path you start off in writing a story, twists and turns until you end up in a completely different, and magical place."

Today I Am...

Today I am working on I Should Have Known Better... which is supposed to be part of the 80's Mixed Tape Anthology for MLRPress. Yet somehow the damn thing has taken on a life of its own and has led me on a whole different path. I'm not sure if it's still in line with what the Anthology wants. I may have to email Kris J and ask...

Once this story is completed I'm going to work on making myself up character files so I can have notes etc on them and what series they are in and which once they may make a cameo in. I once had one that I downloaded, but I couldn't work out how to use the damn thing. In all honesty that was a couple of computers ago... so if anyone knows of a good program I can use for this let me know.

Other than that I'm trying really hard to finish off all my WIPS so I can get them into my wonderful editor Kimberly B...  and then I can start on some more. 

I would like to thank Toni Ward and Cinders for their comments and helpful suggestions for a story line. I will end up using both... maybe not in the same story, but I will definitely have a crack at both ideas they were awesome.

Character Inspiration...

I really like this picture... I honestly have no clue if he is gay, straight or bisexual... and to be honest: I don't really care; as he has the right to live his life in whatever fashion he chooses.

So why do I like this picture so much? Because he is different. Purely  and simply because it's an interesting photo, and I seriously want to put stickers all over someone like that - (preferably while they are still asleep). 

I also like this picture because he gives me great character inspiration  in so many different ways. I could write him as and goth/emo or I could write him as a tough guy with a tender side. Maybe he's just some random guy doing a photo shoot. All I know is that he will make a great character in one of my stories... Now I just have to find the right character role to slot him into.

I have had this picture saved on my computer for years (well, at least two) and I will keep on saving him until I find the right character... UNLESS!!! someone out there has a name and a scenario he might fit into. If so drop me a comment and let me know what you think.

Just Shout It From The Rooftops...

Is this really so bad? I can think of a hell of a lot worse things in life than same sex love.

A Heads Up ~

Lancatser's Way: A Different Way of Seeing... Well low and behold I threw away the first version and started from scratch. I made it to just over 2K yesterday so I am happy with that progress.

Mixed Tape: I Should Have Known Better... I am happy because yesterday I passed the 10K mark and now I have an inkling of where I am heading with this story. It's truly like a fog has been lifted as my mind has been caught up in other story lines.

The Lines of Marsden: Living in Shadows... I'm not really sure how much I have actually done on this one as I have a few different docs. (Shhh, don't tell Embry as I made fun of her for doing the same thing) any way so whichever perspective you want to look at it I am somewhere between 0 and 85K... I just need to put them all in the same place.

The Diamond Rose: Undercover Hearts... to be honest this book is at a standstill unless one of you lovely people can tell me where the hell I have put my spiral notebook with all my info and story ideas in it. You think I would have it in one of my filing cabinets, or maybe in the office somewhere... but alas I have put it in a safe place - I just have no clue where that safe place is at the moment. (But the tattoo Em has across her sternum of this title is almost finished just one more pass-over to do touch-ups) I think I'm just under 4K on this one.

Jettermane... even though this started as a blog story I have been revising it and expanding it and I will try and get it subbed somewhere so that Cinders and everyone else can find out the rest of the story. I was slack and just stopped mid story at a time when my real life seemed to get hectic as hell... about 18K

But who's life doesn't get busy at times... and why do I separate the two... because writing to me is just as real as breathing or cooking for my family.
