LMAO…. ok how many of you went crazy this past weekend? I didn’t get to, but this coming weekend I will be out of commission as I shop my heart out for Christmas.
So… You know what day it is right?!?!?! Yep. Monday. And instead of offering you a special deal of 99% off, I will give you instead a free gift! A Chapter of AIW!
Click on the banner to get there, the links will be active once the WordPress Whisperer whispers cunningly to the internet and makes them magically appear.
Yeah, I am in a good mood. LOL. I be you guys couldn’t tell could you??? Why?
Because for one thing, it is Christmas. My favorite time of the year. The good vibes off everyone is enough to make anyone smile. To have Christmas songs playing (Joy to the World by Faith Hill right now!!) I was happier until I sat up and realized that I have downsized a pillow from the attentions of Murphy and Connor. Ah well. It’s just money.
LOL.
Ok so this past week when we were supposed to be all doing the holiday thing, some things went down. To answer the questions I am still getting, here is a break down:
Yes, I am phasing out FanFiction.net. This week will be the last chapter for All I Want on that site. I will be publishing the beginning of stories, and that is all. If it comes to the need to delete stuff, then the story is no longer being published there. I will continue publishing here everything. TWCS is another site that hosts my stories as well as A03 and FictionPad. But they are all published here first.
Yes, I am pulling all the Tea Shoppes and stories that have to do with it. This will happen on Wednesday. After a long discussion, my betas convinced me it really is good enough to publish. I didn’t think so. It has not ended, so it will be sold as a book instead.
I am still writing FanFiction. In fact, last night I finished editing the Mummy. And was very upset with myself for leading into the sequel. If I can wrangle the time before I need to do anything, I will start on IND. I find I can edit on my laptop better since I am not talking to everyone. I don’t like to edit. So I am easily distracted. oops.
I also edited a one shot Gyllene loves, so it is off to the betas.
After IND, Clocks is being edited. I plan to have EVERY story I have updates for to be sent off to the Betas soon. So expect more and more to show up for you guys.
Best was opened, but was found to be too tiring for me at 2am to work on. I expect you will be finding that one sent off soon also.
We started a new Facebook group for those who are switching over to WordPress, or who are users of it who wish to find new tricks, talk over issues they are having or so forth. It is a open group, and as people join and ask, we will discuss some items. I did some tutorial screen shots to show how to add media, how to use shortlinks and how to embed links in posts and pages through the use of either pictures or words. It is called WordPress Help for FanFiction
That is the questions I received this week. Here are your answers. Nothing else is being removed at this point. I am planning on finishing all the stories. The reason Tea Shoppe was pulled cause it was an original story being set to the fanfiction worlds.
We held our monthly Banner Contest over in the Kittyinaz Facebook Group. Members who wish to participate often submit their entries when I open the contest up. This month was harder due to the holiday. The first place is the banner of the month on the group page, and 2nd place is the banner for the Kittyinaz Facebook Page. Please see the Banners below to be taken to the pages. Congrats to our winner! (PS, no the banner does not snow on the Facebook Page. But I use these as opportunities to try new things!)
I received one entry. If you had forgotten, you have until midnight to get in your entry, otherwise the one entry wins. Because of the response… This is the last Kill Bill. I will work to find the theme for this month’s contest. I am thinking Christmas….
Amazon.. It is shopping season, and please if you use Amazon, use the link above in the banner to buy from them. It helps me out and does nothing but may help you. For those that rather copy and paste, here is the link: http://www.amazon.com/?_encoding=UTF8&tag=kittyinaz-20 Thanks!!
Murphy!
Good news on that front. He got his shots on Saturday with the normal Vet we use. They are trying to find some flea medicine to use with him since the medication on his mange is really strong. His fur is coming in, and you have above adorable pics last night as he slept while I edited. And yes, that is his tongue sticking out. He is getting the idea of house training, he is actually going to people before he goes inside. The problem is we have no idea if it is for affection or to go out. But he is telling us!
For now, I will let you soak in these things as I introduce the Person of the Week!
This week is Naima Demars.
This woman is amazing. She has never failed to help out in anything we have asked, or to take up causes she finds. If you are on Facebook, you know this woman as the person who shares updates on FanFiction Lovers as well as SVM/TB FanFiction. She was the one who spread the word on the You Got Blood Awards, and who also helped spread the word on the Plagarists. I even saw her comments on the person’s stories that she told them which stories they stole it from!!!!
She is so very loyal to those she sees as friends. Even though English is not her first language, she works with us English speakers. I am constantly amazed.
So please, leave her a kind word on her wall in Facebook. She more than deserves the credit for working to see the SVM/TB Fandom not dying as many have seem to have done. We well appreciate her efforts and continue writing, knowing she will be there cheering us on!
Have fun this week, and I will see if I can get a IND chapter done now.
Which unfortunately means Monday will be coming after midnight. Blech can we just skip to Saturdays and repeat? And still get paid for those days between. You know, as in our clones work for us as we sleep and so on? No? Ah well. I tried! You love me anyways right?
Ok.. this week you have had two new chapters. And there is a rumor of two more chapters coming to you guys from well established series here. Why? Cause I made a deal and I am honoring it. Yep. You make a deal with me for a chapter, and I will pay up. Two people asked, and now two chapters I will start working on. So this week will be a great one to stalk around.
You guys are freaking awesome!! I am over 400K visitors to this site. This site that I said, heck with it, I can post and hopefully a couple people will come read it. You guys rock and I am speechless.
The interview for this month? Eric with In The End. I will be working on that this week along with the two stories. It will be after the stories since I just write the answers he gives me. LOL! The Kittyinaz Facebook writing challenge ends Wednesday, and I am going to try to make the banners for all the contestants. So if you want to enter, remember, even I don’t know who writes what. I don’t find out until the voting is done by you guys. So if you are nervous, just submit it. No one will know you did it until the end, and you can see other love your work!!
I have an Deviant Art account. Guess what name it is under. Yep, Kittyinaz. LOL. I have been putting the stuff I have been making over there, as well as some stuff I made for when I write. Like a bloodline and stuff like that. I see in pictures, so I work in pictures. So it is over there in case you guys are wondering about information about Clocks.
Robin has informed me the Amazon page here is updated for Mother’s Day. Yep. We are getting ready for it, and please use the link to buy your stuff. It helps me, and costs you nothing at all. I sound like a broken record about it, but hey, it makes me money so I can show Marty that there is a benefit for writing. Now to finish up my little side project, get my promises done, and back on schedule. I have two more stories to finish before I edit. Then I will be off to finish my original fiction so we can get that ball rolling.
My little side project? To make character banners for all of In The End. I have TONS of respect for Sephrenia!!! I have as of this posting, two left. I will be finishing them up, then going to bed. I have to take Marty to the Dentist, he has spent an entire weekend in so much pain it hurts to see him.
You have seen the information for Crossover Haven and The awards that will open up for nominations? Yeah, go read below this post. There is plenty to read and see….
So who is getting the spotlight? Gyllene FanFiction. She was the one that took the time to teach me on Elements, and she makes some wonderful Banners!!! I am in awe of her and hope to only catch up with her abilities. Below are a few Banners she has made for me.
She is not only an amazing artist, but she writes as well!!! Click on her name and it will take you to her site!
Now for the Fan Made Videos
The first one is for our Once Upon a Time fans. Captain Swan!!!! It is made by Ivana Cincur, using Fix You by Cold Play. I love this even though it is of their first season. But since I am still there in writing, it works. LOL Feel free to subscribe to her, and let her know you came over from Kittyinaz’s Site!
This next one is stuck in my head and won’t leave me alone. It may end up being the next song I use for a story that is mentioned in it. It is a True Blood fanfic! It is by andrajacsi call Love Don’t Die. Again, let her know who sent you and leave some reviews for her!
As you may know, MissRon80 has been the co-writer of my story the Best is Yet To Come. It is my Once Upon a Time story I started because of a dream. She was the beta for it, but ended up rewriting so much of Emma’s POV, I named her a co-author.
In the sad news department, the time has come for former beta and co-writer of this story, MissRon80, to seek her own adventures, and we wish her the very best. In the happy news department, beta Kelpie and I worked so well together that she has stepped in to help co-write this story.. She had become the new Beta of the story, and I absolutely adore her stories. She is also writing some one shots for OUaT. She gets my story, and is going through to tweak Emma towards her vision.
Hopefully, for the fans of this series, Kelpie and I have committed to publishing once a month. It may sound like a long time, but we both have our own stories, and we agreed that this would work. If something happens and we can publish faster. Well ::shrugging:: you guys get a treat. This story unfortunately is not one I can bank chapters since I write from the previous one, send it to my cowriter, and she does Emma, and yeah… you can see what a labor of love this is.
The newest chapter with Kelpie‘s co-authoring ways is below. We will be updating the story with her other tweaks of the character, and I will let you know when the chapters are all updated. For the previous versions, please feel free to visit MissRon80‘s site, where she has my blessing to continue the story in her own fashion.
Yes!!! Many huge thanks to kelpieskorner for her awesome Betaing skills, She has gone back and redone all the chapters for Best. We appreciate it! And I even gave you guys a Gif for it!! (And me to stare at until the next post!)
I have already done Chapter 6, sent on to missron80 to work on, but she works while I don’t, which gives me more time for writing, but even I had to wait a couple of weeks to write this current one.. My Co-author is awesome, and this coming chapter is very pivotal, so be patient!!!!!!!
If you haven’t seen already, I have a tea blog that I am writing about my adventures in blending teas. It is fun, plus it reminds me of what I have already done. I found a blend I used at the beginning I had forgotten about. Go check it out, it gets all excited cause 5 people liked it today. It’s a baby site still.
We also have a new lady for the food blog, so expect to see some changes there also. I’m excited about all this wonderful stuff!!! This is all stuff that means more for you my ladies (And guys if there are any!) Happy Times!
I am still working on You’re. I think there is something still going on with the current chapter, but once I have clarification on posting it officially up, I will let you know. Once I am done with this, I may take a break and work on the story I have now, before getting the new story ready for publishing. Remember, I am trying to give you guys completed stories, but I will go back through the stories to see if I have any chapters that are done, but not edited. Who knows? Maybe I will read one, get all inspired and finish it?
I am trying to make sure there is stuff to read for you guys, so be patient!!!
Enjoy the chapter, remember we will not post this to any other site until Wednesday.
Yeah I know. We are running late, and it is all my fault. I truly lost a week and thought that I had a week to get this up to find out on Friday I didn’t. So I wrote it up on the 30th and sent it out.
I am in Arizona right now, and internet is spotty, unless I use my own, and even that is slow, but they charge by the gigabyte. So I am holding that in reserve. But maybe not for long since I really want to be ‘normal’. I will be here until the 13th of January, so expect to see more posting from my Betas than me. They may even copy and paste for me because this sucks…
Updates: For those that fans of The Best is Yet to Come, I have the chapter back and am reading through it for my part. We are looking for a beta for it, and once we have one, then they need to go through the story and edit. Just to let you know, if you are interested, do NOT message me. Send it to the Beta email address: kittysbetas@gmail.com. Karen is the one who appoints Betas, not me. And there are tests. Just warning you. (I hate them, and I barely take them, only to find out I am not bad… But then I read my unedited stuff and cringe.)
Also, I bought the domain for Kittyinaz, so you can use the www.Kittyinaz.com to get here now. I also had to fork out quite a bit on other things, and discussing with Karen led to the Amazon Partnerships. If you shop Amazon, click on the link here (on the side under the Amazon Partnership heading), or save it as your bookmark, and for the money you spend, I get a very small percentage of it. This will go towards defraying the costs for me to keep up the site. Don’t get me wrong, WordPress is free, but since so many of you come here, I have upgraded some of it. I am finding I am needing to upgrade the memory not only here, but also in our Dropbox too. Once I do that, I will load up the stories there and won’t experience the losing of a chapter like I did this last week. No idea how, and it pissed me off.
I am also working away, since the internet is so bad here, I have more time to write, and not read. I am also resting a lot to catch up on the lost sleep I had the last couple of weeks. My back spazzed out so, I am glad to have this time. My stress level was high, and I was putting aside my grief and everything to deal with what needed to be done, such as helping to take care of Mama Kitty and getting everything ready for this trip.
Mama Kitty update. She is home, and enjoying it. I set up the TV, though when Marty gets back, he may have to fix the Blu-ray player since it was buzzing and the colors were off. But it is easy peasy for him, me it was not fun. I like computers, but have me hook up a TV and all the stuff, with only having two HDMI’s inputs and needing three of them? Ugh.
Connor is with me, and this has been interesting. They have a doggy door and it is not getting through his head yet he can use the door and not be let out. Hey the time is young. He is learning that he can use it, since I won’t let him out but will stand outside. So he will use it, then when I leave him out, he will come in. He is getting used to the other people, dogs and everything. But he is enjoying it, though Marty left today to go back to Houston, and he is looking for him…
So please click above for the Interview with Killian. Sharon aka MissRon80 (click on her link under the betas area) will have her interview of him on her site, she is the co-author for The Best is Yet to Come. Also, when we do Emma, she will be doing it, since she is Emma. I write Killian, she writes Emma. So please read it, and enjoy. And be looking for when the next chapter will be posted. I will try to write the next one here soon so I can get it out to her.
Don’t forget the foodblog, I gave Megan all my recipes from the family cookbook and she is adding it. So all of my cookie, well most of them are given to her. I think I didn’t include the ones from those checkout cookbooks. Yes, I buy them, and use them. I am not at home, so feel free to send her some recipes (kittyinazfoodblog@gmail.com). She runs the site, so go over and check it out. Let her know what you are looking for, and she may have it already, or be able to find it. Just try it!! There has been a lot of time given to that project, and you guys don’t want me wasting time right?
I think that is everything. If you want input into this month’s coming interview, join the group. It’s a little quiet, but when people get talking, my phone blows up and I get a huge grin on my face. And don’t forget the Saturday Gif hunt, Robin has been posting on the group but she is changing up how to get the points for finding it. It is getting nifty!!!
Enjoy and hopefully you will have some updates soon!
Yep you heard me. A new chapter of The Best is Yet to Come. Not only did Sharon gift me with the chapter, but with the new Banner too! Click on it to get to the story.
This chapter is Emma heavy. Sharon and I are hitting our stride on how to do this. So, expect some adjustments coming. I write the body, and I am to concentrate on Killian. Since I seem to channel him. Sharon gets Emma and she is in charge of her. So basically. I write the episode since I have the iTunes and the nifty Dialogue thingie. I write all those details then gave it to her. The problem, is before this was mostly Killian’s POV. Now Emma is here and we noticed that it is Emma heavy right now, but still. So once she is done with her part, I will take it back and see if Killian needs more work.
This time we left as is, since Emma deserves some input and a chapter on how she is feeling. Not that Killian has nothing to say.
Enjoy. I am cleaning during the day, so I will probably not updating anything until later when I will be thrilled to have sit down time. What if and Revelations remain. I will probably do revelations since if I feel like writing some more on What If, nobody is going to mind right?
Also a tidbit. The stories will be getting top pictures from here on out. Guess who the theme is for OuAt?
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…
