Yes, you read that right. The first chapter of this week is done.
Though, it is a short one, so it is no big deal. But I needed it to finish up High school for them. But now their free time is over, Mordred is on the move. Too bad for them.
I will probably expand on it more later, but for right now, I am just trying to get ideas on ‘paper’.
I have also sent in another chapter of Our Road is Long. Once the beta is done with it, I will let you guys know, so the general public can get to the stories.
Don’t forget the You Want Blood Awards and submitting your nominations!!!
Also there is my contest, Outlaws and Angels to submit for as well.
Bertie Bott sent out a request for any of us who are continuing the stories that they submitted for her Superhero Contest, please let her know so she can supply links to the stories.
We are still looking for donations for the site. We have enough for renewing the site, but not to pay the security. We are also are leaving the donation button up for you to use.
All in all, I think you guys probably like what is going on, you are getting more updates as Natsgirl pointed out. I never thought about it that way, but I am getting rid of all the stories that have prewritten chapters done. Of course it doesn’t help when I go off to read the rest of the story coughEdgecough. But as long as I can get work done, it will be good.
Right now, we have been rained on. For some reason, my allergies are trying to overrun me, making it hard to sleep, since I keep sneezing like crazy. Stormy has been jumping and looking at me like I am crazy, since I normally don’t sneeze like this. Luckily no flooding around here, but then, even when everyone is being flooded, we live in a pier beamed house, that is a good foot or so off the ground. So we are not so worried.
I am off to work on clearing my inbox of writers that I follow, so I can get them on my site and on Robin’s. Have you submitted your site to me at Kittyinazsbetas@gmail.com? The banner needs to be 888×499. If you want to know if I already done your site, look on my Blogs I love, and see if your ‘card’ is the standard size. More of the entries at the beginning are of the cards, since I was working alphabetically from my list. If you want to submit a banner, or your site for my listing, please send it to the email. If you want to replace your ‘card’, please send to the same email.
I’m off, I need to link up everything in this post, then I need to try to get rid of the headache I have from my sinuses. Which unfortunately means I am too tired to work, but not tired enough to get my mind to just shut up. And food might be good.
Thanks!! (banner on top is your link to the story, after this post, you guys will need to contact us to find the secret way into the Original stories that are not being published)
I think I am only going to work in the evening, since I get a ton of work done!
Last night, I really couldn’t sleep, and ended up finishing the chapter for In The End for the beta, and sent it to her after running it through Grammarly. Yes, everything goes through it, even when I laugh at how it hates Mates, (wanting me to turn it into friends) it also strongly dislikes anyone growling. (growing anyone?) and multiple other things it just does not like, and I have to tell it to ignore.
I’m currently working on Edge, if I can keep my mind on task. I might leave, and when it is quiet in the house, work on it. We will see, I have been having massive problems getting to sleep, last night it was after 7 am this morning when I fell asleep finally.
I am going to try to do two posts a weekend. TRY is the operative word. No more than one chapter per week per story though. I need something, so if I do run out of stuff, I can write something and maybe have something to post.
I will say not this chapter of Edge, but the next one has me shocked I wrote it, and laughing my head off. It is an example of what happens when I am not pushed to write for a story, these little bits of humor makes it in the story.
Right now I am jamming to “Get Back” by the Beatles. I love my hometown of Tucson, Arizona is mentioned in it. And that I can sing it word for word on tune.. lol. And I have to say I love my freaking list of songs. I can have a brand new song next to a classic. I have been also playing Pokemon Go. I have no idea what the heck I am doing, nor do I care. I think they are cute, though I am really done with the many rattata’s that seem to be in my area. But I love that I caught the most powerful Pokemon so far in my hallway. <snickers!> So far the Kadabra is the one that made everyone laugh as it batted away my balls with his spoon. I want to know who makes up these things.
I got it because Connor and I are going to start walking when it gets cooler. It was 115 as a heat index, and right now is the coolest it has been at 9 pm in weeks at 88 heat index. I hate humidity, and since we are under a flash flood watch tonight, it seems it will not be getting much better. But I figured it would be interesting to walk not just a normal little square, but to go exploring. This way we both get all happy, and we get exercise. And I get to catch cute little things.
So… reminders!!!
You want blood awards, I did a post that lays out all my stories that are eligible. PLEASE make sure you nominate!!! When she tried this in April, there were not many nominations and she pulled it. Please go in, and nominate!!!!
I’m going to be still working on the banners and so on for the blogs. If you have not been updated (banner the same size as the others) on my Blogs I Love Page, I have not done you yet. If you have not posted and are not on the list at ALL, you need to contact me. The banners are being made as close to your headers on your Home pages. Or if I feel like making one, but this is so rare, the work in trying to reproduce the headers is not really all that easy. I have way too many fonts. If you want to make your own, the size is 888×499. It just needs to have your name on it. For the other place being used, your ‘card’ will be the first thing they see in the listing. Or as a slider. So make it unique! Please send it to Kittyinazsbetas@gmail.com
And of course there is the Writing Contest. Tomorrow will be the halfway mark… I am looking forward to the submissions. And me making the banners. I need to start up my lessons again. But when do I have the time anymore? Ah well.
Here is the ‘card’ for tonight:
She is a writer of many talents, and she loves to Twilight Crossovers. Her favorite? TVD and/or The Originals with Bella. And her stories are so unique!!! And then there was the year of one shots last year. Check out her if you are looking for some awesome stories to read!
And here is the chapter:
Finally, I wish to thank all of you who are donating to the site. It relieves Robin and I’s minds. Why does school time and everything seem to hit all at once.
Now I am going to watch Murphy run around the house like a crazy dog. Seriously, he runs in here, looks at me and if I look back, he takes off runnign and jumping through the house. I think someone is feeling his Wheaties. And who fed him?!?!? Robin?!?!?!?
Yeah, I was not kidding when I said I would work on Weekends on Fanfiction. But I may or may not do another update.
It takes me like 2 hours to work on updating the site. I make the banners, add pics, and then do all the linking. Luckily when I need a second away when something is frustrating me or if I wanna know if my idea looks alright, my ladies online help out.
Every other week (which this is one of them) I have Grandma day, that means I end up spending the day with her. the last two times, (including yesterday) I end up not sleeping the night before. Yesterday I crashed at 6:30 pm, and only woke up about 10:30 for a brief break and crashed again until 1:30 this afternoon. Evidently I needed the sleep. (more…)
So here I am, with the first chapter being published on Aos Si, since I last wrote on it.
I never expected to be able to jump kinda right back in. I say kinda, since I spent days researching what I had written before, writing up stats and worrying about other things.
Worrying seems to be the new default for hubby and I. But, we will get through this and I am doing my side of our agreement.
For those that may have forgotten, or have joined since then, Only pre-readers who review chapters are accepted. The reason is for to get feedback on the chapters. They are REALLY rough. These pre-readers get to see how stories are before I go back and add everything. I literally write these out, come out here and save the chapter. This is what I normally do with chapters when I am in the writing mode. I write out my ideas and the movie in my head. I try to add what I can but there is a limit.
I can tell you how rough they are, when I went back to read the chapters published already. Oops… There are alot of oops… Words missing, wrong words used and so on. I normally catch these when I am editing, or even my betas have had to come back and ask, Huh? It’s why I use beta’s. Not only they make the grammar part pretty, they are another set of eyes that can see what I am missing.
But each of the pre-readers HAVE to leave a review about the chapter. If they do not, we do have to tell them that we are no longer allowing them to read it. Pre-reading is to help me when I go back and edit these things, (which only the betas will see at that point) I can see what is going on, and what they are thinking. If it is the direction I want it to go, then I am all for leaving in things. If it is not described enough and makes them go ‘huh?’ and not where I plan the huh’s to be, I know to make sure I clarify my point.
So without much ado, I will link the newest chapter to the car below. (which is Jason’s) The banner above will take you to the first chapter.
If you are a pre-reader, and don’t know the password, well you can contact us, and once we verify you were a pre-reader, the passwords will be handed out. But be aware, Rissa is sleeping. (No waking her up!) and I am working on some stuff. It may take awhile.
Well to my huge surprise, my beta for it did it while I was sleeping!
Huge credos to:
Also, I want to make this as close to doing real publishing, so from here on out, the only pictures you will be getting will be the chapter banners. And those are only for the reason that they will stand out on the side posts so I can see how they are performing. Yes, I do look at those and see what is currently holding your interest. Those and reviews tell me the most. Well the likes do it as well, so if you don’t want to leave a review (but they really do feed the muse!) Hit the like button.
It lets me know you liked it, even if you don’t have the time to review or are too shy to. I wish that Fanfiction had those, I think a lot of people would leave the likes behind.
As for the other story, I spent yesterday going through and doing the physical stats of the main characters. This story has what I call the Pack in it. All in all, the pack has about 24-25 characters in it. Yes, it is huge, but there is a reason, this is the introduction to my world, and the Pack will have some characters featured in the future stories. Plus I have 6 characters who are major in my universe that I needed to get their stats done. Now I am going through to add in the little details.
You know, what are they good at, what their job is going to be in the Pack, little details that can come interesting later down the road. Basically a reference card, but allowing us all to remember details easily. 4Padfoot is trying to figure out a way to do Character Pages that allow you to put your mouse over them to get the details. Since the theme we use is made to be used with tablets, whatever we pick will work with that as well.
So here is the chapter, you can click the banner at the top of the page to be taken to the Cover page and read the prologue also.
Please let me know what you think, since I am working on my original story and feedback will help me with that as well.
It truly is amazing the stuff you can find on the internet. I searched Alexander Skarsgard leprechaun and the picture above is what popped up. I think it is fitting for today. Sorry I missed posting last week, but Daylight Savings in the USA screwed me up. Losing one hour completely wrecked my week. I…
Can someone please explain to me why I am seeing more snow in March than I did in the entire months of December and January???? I should be getting ready for spring, not worrying about shoveling 8 inches of snow. The only way snow in March is acceptable is if it this is part of…
Hello lovelies. I cannot guarantee I will be back to publishing weekly, but I will try. My dear beta, kleannhouse, is in high demand trying to juggle the stories of three writers. She is amazing and she makes me laugh with all of her comments on my stories. This one especially. I started this story…
