Yeah, it ain’t the greatest title for a post, but you knew there was a chapter of Clocks right?
So.. Interesting things happened last week and yesterday.
First is on Friday I went up and saw my newest Jacob who is finally home with grandma (who is his great grandma!). He is so tiny next to all the ones we have had lately. And of course, I love him just as much as all the others.
I found out that if I take more than 2 days to edit a chapter, I need to give myself a break. Work on something else. For me, I watch a movie in my head of what I write down for you guys. Imagine watching it over and over and over. Not so much right? Especially one small piece of it? That is what was happening to me on Edge. I had to walk away so I can come back to it after I work on something else. Otherwise I just stare at it now… And there are a lot of details that make the chapter richer, that I need to write in and look over…
The other thing was I complained of a headache last night and Hubby (otherwise known as M) started mouthing off how I had a headache every day. It bugged me as I lay down and then it came to me, See my iPad still had that corner popping up, and I pressed down one day to pop it back in, and it cracked the screen. and will not work now… so I have been reading on my iPhone 5. Needless to say, the print is very tiny. So M gave me his iPad (which is the first one and was mine at the beginning) and I gave him mine to fix for himself. He never uses his as much as I do. Now we wait with baited breath to see if I can get a new one, and especially a new phone. Mine needs charging sometimes 3 times a day…. It’s old…
So what does this mean? For now, a chapter a week to update at least. If I know I have one for the next week and one comes up done, then I will publish it. Sorry. The old pace was when I got alot of editing done and sent to the betas. I’m trying, but I am also trying not to stress myself out. That would be bad.
Also it will help if I stop hurting myself and doing stuff. But hey… at least I am trying!!!!
Here is your chapter courtesy of the most wonderful beta MistressJessica1028!!!!
Enjoy, and also, welcome to all our new members of the Kittyinaz’s Facebook group!
Sorry had to. Couldn’t come up with a catchier name for the post today.
So, for those that don’t know me, or haven’t followed me over here yet, I will let you know, I ramble. LOL! And I seem to like to hurt myself, then try to ignore that I did that.
Yeah, I know not very smart.
I hurt my ankle last Grandma Day. I have a bone spur that instead of growing on the bottom of my heel, I have it at the back of my ankle. It has never bothered me until now. (Of course.) Instead of staying in bed with it up, I instead ran around all day Saturday and Sunday (well helped M put in a new floor, but I think it counts…) I spent this last week in bed, watching Fixer Upper (a guilty pleasure) and Vampire Diaries on Net Flix. I am happy to say that earlier today I finished season one of Vampire Diaries. Hey, there are alot of episodes! (and I finished Fixer Upper, but there are no more seasons of that on NetFlix, and since I only have the Apple TV in my room, there is no way I can watch more… yes. I am pouting…)
I also tried to edit Edge, and I am still working on it. I sent a segment that had been bothering me to my betas to get their opinions on it. I am going to use it, but I may look at it when I am done with the chapter. When it bugs me, it means I need to look at it again. I think my mind went one way and the muse another, so I need to fix it. It is no big deal to the main story, but it gives the wrong impression to me of what is going on.
I am watching the Vampire Diaries to get working on the sequel to You’re. Unfortunately, I have watched all these ones before, but not the ones for the next segment of the story. So I am going to be continuing to watch it while I try to work from the bedroom. We will see how that works.
————————Break for Computer issues———————-
And I am back. Sorry, you guys don’t know I have been gone, but my computer encountered an error and after emitting a painful noise through the speakers, it restarted. Sorry!
What If…. The good news, is here is the other chapter, the bad news? This is it for the pre-written and edited chapters. Seems I need to write more. I really need a clone of myself!
So here is the chapter, and I am loving the comments on it already!!!
Yes, the chapter was pre-released in my group. And they are loving it.
I am off to clean off all the stories and stuff from my outlook for the reblog, then off to the bedroom to work on editing, getting away from the dogs before I scream. They are fighting, literally over a bone that Connor is eating. Murphy doesn’t eat them, he only wants it to get Connor to come after him. They have already fought once at my literal feet, and the next time, they took off the door to my desk that houses the CPU.
So I am getting aggravated.
Enjoy the chapter, and I will hopefully get some work done here in the next few days.
I hope everyone had a rested weekend, full of romance, or full of Deadpool… And Yes, M took me to see it here on Friday. I loved it, but I do say, don’t take your kids as Ryan says up above. It is bloody. It is full of crude humour. Basically, it is Deadpool and what he is. Loved it!!!!
Saturday I got a surprise, my newest nephew was born. He was an early one, so nothing is ready for him, but he is needing to learn to breathe right before he can come home. The lungs are one of the last to form, and that is where he is having issues. But everything is great with him and Mommy, and we are all volunteering to help in any way.
Last week was a bust in getting much other than some banners for What If done. I am going through the chapters and adding banners, updating the buttons and so on. My new beta for What If, tj6james6 (who rocks!!!!) is going through all the chapters so that she knows what is going on.
I would like to extend a special welcome to all the people from Fanfiction who followed me over here. This site is a piece of work I am proud of and thank 4padfoot constantly for working on it. We pay for the site through the donations of some freaking awesome people. I also have a link to Amazon that if you use it, it costs you nothing, but for referring you to their site I get a small kickback up to 6%. This goes to pay for memory for the shared drive for the betas as well as the place I store all the documents so that all I ever have to do, is be able to log into it to work on stories, no matter where I am, or what I am using. It also pays for the photoshop (CC) that I use to make banners for everyone and myself.
I hate hawking myself out, but hey, if I want to continue, I needed to do something. I will tell you hosting our own site is awesome for the control we have over it. But it has its downfalls. Right now we are working on bringing the site back up to where it was before. We were hacked thanks to an error WordPress made. They corrected it as fast as they could, however, it was a little too late for us. Thanks to it, we have made some improvements to make it MUCH harder to hack into us, even if WordPress messes up. And I will say thank you to the people of Blue Host for working so hard to help us out!
Just to reiterate (from the past and above):
tj6james6 has taken over What If due to the previous Beta having to back out due to real life. It was not easy to have another work on the story since the beta is one of the ladies who volunteered when I was a nobody. I treasure those ladies the most (and you guys know who you are!) for they took a real risk with me.
I left Fanfiction (but for one chapter, and the explanation of where I am now and why I left) because of the last straw of them not telling anyone about the fact that 5 other sites wiped everything from their site to use. In other words, since they do NOT have my permission, they are plagiarizing my work. Also, by not telling their followers of the action, has left them open to accidently signing on to one of the sites, giving their passwords to the site as well as being set up to for viruses and malware. Not cool at all.
I post here first. TWCS is often updated with hours, to days of it being posted here. The rest get it a week or two later. I do post on other sites. Better in Texas, FictonPad, Fanfiction Affliction, A03, and Dokuga for my Inuyasha fic. Fanfiction will only get the first chapter and a chapter telling when I post here.
This site is the work of the fabulous 4padfoot who puts in many freaking hours! I only come up with SOME of the ideas. The front page and the main pages behind it? All her genius. There is a Site Map for those who wish to use it. I update the main page, as well as add the links in the stories.
If you find a broken link, or anything not working, please leave a message for us. We often have no idea, since most of us are logged into the backside of the site.
And there are going to be a lot of posts coming from this weekend on the reblog site. Seems I broke my iPad this time. *hangs head in shame* We are going to wait until I can get a new one, so it will be a little bit (MONTHS!!!!) but then this iPad will be the headache of my husband and not me. (thank god)
I am working on chapters like I used to in the past. Whatever I feel like. So the updates will be periodic, with no real schedule at first. Once I get back in the swing of working like this again, I will try to stick to a schedule. I post one chapter a week on each story. So even if I have more, I hold onto them to give you guys stuff to read.
And to give you guys a great start to this week, I have a chapter of What If for you!
Enjoy the rest of your week. I hope to work on some stuff since there is not much happening in my life right now. This is subject to change, since I don’t work, I am the one most likely to be called upon to help my brothers.
p.s. Whoever is trying to hack into the site, please stop. We learned a valuable lesson last time. All you are doing is annoying us this time.
After a long debate with myself, talking with others and a final talk with M, I am pulling all but one chapter from all my stories on Fanfiction.
I have spent a long time bowing to their mandates and so on, wanting to give something back to the people who helped to start me off on this wonderful journey.
But no longer.
Their practices of not protecting the writers and enabling the readers to bully us is over. No longer will I spend a long period of time editing out chapters for content. No longer will I put up with having to go in and delete Guest reviews who are being nasty for the sake of being nasty.
While I will miss the people on Fanfiction, I have made sure there are other alternatives to reading my work.
So with this being said, I will be flooding inboxes with the removal notice since not everyone will receive the notice unless I do it this way.
Sorry.
I will leave one chapter per story up. And I will notify the DAY I post another chapter here. Once. For each story. Then I am done.
As M said, you have make a stand, fight for what is right, and not what is easier. Easier is to leave things as they are, to continue to post my chapters there to get the reviews. Cause let’s face it, while I am content with seeing stats to keep writing stories, reading reviews helps fire the muse up to keep writing.
So I am off to make the changes needed.
As a reminder, I am also on: FictionPad, Fanfiction Affliction, Better In Texas, TWCS and A03. None of those chapters are edited for content. And TWCS is often updated with hours or the latest days from when I post here. I am Kittyinaz on all the above-mentioned sites.
This has made the Facebook rounds, but I wanted to let any of my followers that do not get on Facebook, to know also. Many thanks to Meridian who let me know and shared this post to let me know what to do!
They have all of my stories, and if you clicked on their pages (one got me!) then check your virus protections. But PLEASE check your stories!!!
I checked these sites and they have exact copies of my works under my pen name. This notice came up on my Tumblr so I am sharing it here.

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…
