My Fix…

All I Want Banner Wings3

Ok.. Last night was BAD!!!  We all know this.  Luckily, I have had this fix in my files to be done for the last who knows how many months.  I started to work on it, and we have the first chapter ready now.

 Learn to Love Trilogy

What if two people make a wish at the same exact second, and at that second, is between life and death.  What if that wish was granted and they find themselves with the chance to make it all right, to fix everything that had happened.  This is that Chance.

Pairing?  E/S/G (Yes, another one.)

This is a trilogy, and the first story is complete.  I am editing it, and sending it off to the Beta, who is Mknue.

This picks up at the end of season 6.  It was inspired by a video that is embedded in the home page.  Click below to go to the first Chapter

Chapter 1_edited-2

Many thanks to Gyllene for her banner making and for helping to get this ready, as well as Mknue, Meridian and Bertie Bott.  Now go off to read!

Enjoy it!

Wendy

 

What day is this??

Im so lost.  Days are turning around on me as I work to get everything done.  hmm.. ::Cocks her head to the side as Meridian whispers in her ear:: “No, I don’t need another story.  I have one bugging me from a Gif I saw and no!”  Meridian laughs then whispers something else.  “Oh!!!

Chapter 7 of IND_edited-1

Umm.. It’s Update Wednesday!!! So yes.  The banner above tells you another chapter of I Never…Did is ready for you to read. This has some of the questions you are asking answered.  And the reason why they are answered.

I have also just finished the Mummy part one.  So I have the Harry Potter fic left.  I have been working on multiple things.  I am getting the database started with the recs and so forth so look for things to be changing there.  I also read All I want, and will start editing it. From there I will go and update all the stuff I can find.

This is a group that their sole purpose is to let the fans know their favorites are being updated in one place.  They come out nightly, and if you tell them of a author you like, or story, they will follow it and let you know when they update.  It is also a great way to find new stories. Go over and look at what they got!  They also have a Facebook page.

Crossover Haven.  The site is out there, and we are not getting much on it.  Tell us why!  we can’t fix what we don’t know is issues.  Tell us what would make it better and we will try to get it working for you.

Same with the food blog.  I have stepped back, having way too much on my plate.  I am writing ALOT of stories, and you guys all want yours next.  27 stories is nothing to sneeze at, and I am actively trying to get them all updated.  I note what you guys want, and I shuffle in fan favorites as I can.   NOTHING is abandoned.  But I do need to get my Original Fiction out.

I helped start a lot of these, but the idea was that I would help start it, and hand it off to the ladies who make it all work.  I knew I could not do it all, and that time has come.  I’m human.

I also needed to take a step back since I am doing the interviews for the TB/SVM world.  It is not as easy as you think, and I will be working on the first review of a story tomorrow.  (Too much on my plate tonight!)

I write these the day before, needing them in place in case something happens.   There is a whole world working behind the scenes, and many people working together to make this site work.  Often these are written ahead of time, with editing as things change.

On that note, I will also be updating the Rec lists soon.  Give me some time, it will take awhile to get it all in a place that I can export and import from FF.  From there I will try to go to the Blogs I am interviewing and work from there.

My board is busy with my next steps, and even my betas are starting to look askance on me.  But I am working on them and will get things caught up soon.  I hope.

I Have updated the contest pages, and they will be live as soon as our awesome WordPress whisperer gets a chance.  I’m working her hard.  Sorry!  I do have the winner of last month’s, Bertie Bott, also in the there, so keep an eye out for the updates there.  Here is the Banner I made for her story:

North Star_edited-1

I am also going to be updating the banner page.  There is soo much going on, and you guys only see the tip of the iceberg.  If you want to keep up more with our happenings, please join the Facebook group.  They got the notice that I Never Did was up a couple of hours ago.  There is teasers happening with the new Harry Potter crossover I am doing, as well as a suitor thread for them to debate on.  It’s getting lively, and I am enjoying the discussions.  So join us.  The link is on the side, but I will add it here.

Enjoy the chapter and I will see you Sunday, if not before!

New Chapter of I Never…Did

Chapter 6_edited-1

This is going to be short, and to allow Meridian to post when she gets time.

I will be gone for a little while, only getting on sparingly (if my brain allows me to sleep).  Seems I have a fever now.  ::head bangs on the desk::  Cool desk…. What was I saying?  Oh yeah, me sick.  Taking sick day.

If you haven’t found it yet, there is a new website out there courtesy of Gyllene and 4Padfoot.  They are posting what updates they know of.  Sign up to follow, and let them know who you would like to be added to the list.  It is a relief to find them all in one place now.  And to know of new ones!

cropped-fanfictionminions1

Just a reminder that this is the site that gets all the new chapters up to a week ahead, and the other sites get them when we post.  Except TWCS, but that is because of LadyKT.  She is awesome!!

My Facebook page has the teaser for the new story that is haunting my mind.  Click the link, and you are more than welcome to sign up.

I have received two stories for the Kill Bill contest, and as soon as I can, I will try to get them banners and loaded up.

4Padfoot updated the Amazon link.  Remember, that using the link for me will give me credit for referring you and cost you nothing.  It pays for the upkeep of the site.

I am off to bed, and hoping that I can survive the night.  Thanks!

Wendy


Kittyinaz survived the night, but she’s still a sick kitten, so I’m posting this on her behalf so that she doesn’t have to worry about it, AND I’m posting early because I have yet MORE summer thunderstorms dancing over my head (in MY area, these kinds of storms tend to take out the power and the wifi)…

Have a nice one,

~Mer

 

 

What’s this? A New Chapter?

Chapter 5_edited-4

Yep!  And it is for I Never…Did.   Here is the deal, I wanted to do a chapter, that turned into 7.  The reviews on this one made me think.  And you got this for it.

See, I Never…Did is a truly awesome story, and has nothing to do with the other 20 stories in my head.  It is a clear what if situation.  And… it is what brought 4Padfoot to us.  Man… What an awesome trade off.  I would not be as able to get as far as I have gone without her on the site.  All for one story.

It was planned to be a stress outlet for me, to allow me to escape a story to write a few on it.  Then Meridian took it over since 4Padfoot had much more important things to do.  Like figure out my site.  I still am amazed at 4Padfoot‘s ingenuity.  And this story has been that, a stress outlet.

Until I got all these reviews asking about Bill’s reaction, and I started thinking, then dreaming and thinking more.  I decided that I would write a chapter maybe two to tide us all over until I am done with stories and sent them off to the Betas.  I can add more as time needs it.

Then… ideas flew through my brain so fast it wasn’t funny.  I impressed some new ladies to the beta group.  See, they are my first readers.  I save everything to WordPress to make sure it is always backed up, and to allow them the treat to read the stuff before I edit.  And they were shocked I wrote over 8k words in a weekend.  4 chapters.  Sometimes I can even do that in a day.  Depends on the music, the words and the movie and interruptions.  But when it is all flowing, well you can interrupt me all you like and it really does nothing to slow me down.  And remember these are all rough drafts.

And let me tell you, Meridian has EARNED that 2nd Place Eagle Eye Award as a beta for me, as well as her nickname of The Muse Whisperer.  To have all that AS WELL as being THE beta on the story.  Well.  It’s lethal.  And I reminded her why she loves the story.  So she is bouncing all over the place, thrilled about Character Banners, about Banners and the chapters.  It is awesome.  She reminds me why Betas are ducking awesome all around.  The enthusiasm and so on.  And the request of more please.

Now, don’t get me wrong, there are lots of people on my beta team who love this story.  4Padfoot eagerly eats up the chapters, and missrissa81.  Well.  missrissa81 gets so happy you can’t help but grin.  missrissa81 is the type of person you want on your Beta team.  She will cheer you on.  Want to do a new crossover?  Hell yeah!! She is there reading it.  Thinking of a one off?  Can I have more instead?  And.. she is one of the few people who can keep up with ALL my stories and to work on making sure they are all being on track.  I will not be another CH.  Nope. Not with her.

So.. you guys are getting this chapter, with the hope I will be back in time to do the next one, but I have told Meridian to go ahead since I am not finding hardly anything to change.  A rarity with me I promise!

As you are reading this after Meridian posts it, I will be getting things packed and so on for the trip to Tucson.  We will be leaving Thursday around noon if everything works out right.  I will be leaving sometime Monday to come back.  We prefer to drive at night, it is easier than driving the desolate waste of space between San Antonio and Tucson.  Not a fun trip since most of the time will be spent driving, then with funerals.  Never fun.

I have the enjoyment of announcing two new Betas,  one is known, MistressJessica.  She has agreed to beta The Best is Yet to Come (yes, the chapter is out and being worked on by Kelpie and her side of things).  Its never a good idea to try to beta when you are writing the story.  And not when you have two writers who love the story, but one writes in present and one write in past tense.  This will make sure we stop worrying.  The second is kbhotz.  She is the beta for Tin Man.  I am looking forward to working with either of them.  We are always taking applications for betas.  We have a test, and you also get to work with a beta who has been with us for awhile.  And since I came up with 5 new ideas just this writing period, no one gets bored.  The benefits is having access to all my chapters, even those I wrote the rough draft for.

With the new additions, well I am also promoting someone too.  For so long, we have called Meridian the Queen of the Betas.  But there has been a third there at all times helping.  Bertie Botts.  She has been mentoring, helping out, listening to me rant, to brainstorm with (She really is very much like me!!) and so on.  She is the one that is I turn to If Meridian cannot help me at the time.  So we have elevated her to Crown Princess.  And then the rest of the ladies got named my princesses.  LOL.  Fun times, but they really are unselfish, awesome ladies who give of their time to help my stuff be readable.  They listen to all I say and we help each other out.   So they are to me, the royalty of betas.  And mine!   (For those that don’t know my place, well I am the Empress of My Universes.  Really.  It’s my job per Facebook!)

We held the Banner Contest for the Kittyinaz’s Group and for the Facebook Page.  Now remember, this is a group only contest, and its quite free to join the group. (Click on the note on the side menu over there~~>)  We have loads of fun.  This month, the banner page here got a lot of entries and examples of why the ladies got not only nominated, but won their Van Gogh’s!  I was shocked when one of my banners won, and the other, well I am not surprised about. I thought it would be a contest between 4padFoot and Gyllene.

1st place and the Banner for Kittyinaz’s Group in Facebook

Gyllene Banner 1

2nd place and the Banner for the Facebook Page for Kittyinaz, that is connected to this site.

Unfortunately the news of Marty’s uncle being so sick came when the awards were announced, and I couldn’t get anything in me to crow that I won first in the Crossovers in the You Want Blood.  It was the only one I crossed my fingers on that I would win on this one since I read Skin Deep, Ladies Night out, and I heard that the other one is awesome.  I was amazed when I got the results for the categories and that I placed high on them.  5th or 6th.  And when you are going against the writers I was, well.  Not to be dead last was a huge achievement for me.  Yes, I am Kittyinaz and I have low-self esteem.  Ask my betas.  I publish, cause I want to read them later.  But I am shocked when you guys like them.  And to nominate me?  Hell yeah!!!

every-dark-night-turns-into-day-kittyinaz-the-hybrid-awards-1st-place

So while I deal with the sad things, you guys will get I Never Did chapters.  And get ready for a ride.  I did a lot of research and did a lot of looking hard at some actors.  Such a hard job to look at guys to find my characters.  So hard…..

So enjoy!  And leave some reviews so I can have a smile as I hurdle towards Tucson at posted speed limits.  Yeah… Sure.  I have some ocean front property in Arizona if you believe that.

Wendy


Addendum from Meridian:

First, I’m sorry that Wendy has suffered yet another loss in her family.  ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!

Second, CONGRATULATIONS WENDY!!!!!

Third, while I totally understand the low self-esteem thing, I can see ABSOLUTELY no reason for Wendy to even know the word.  She’s first and foremost an awesome lady, who is an awesome writer, who is an awesome friend, who is an awesome inspiration, who is an awesome animal lover, who is an awesome daughter/wife/puppy- and kitty-mommy…  Really, she’s a joy to work with and I’m proud to call her a friend.

Fourth, I adore IND (*confession:  I’m the MISTRESS of the art of laziness and will absolutely abbreviate all story titles…IND = I Never…Did) and am loving the chance to beta it as well as all the others I was able to get my greedy little beta-paws on, too.

Fifth, Bertie Bott has been an awesome help – going way above and beyond – and truly does deserve recognition for being “third in charge”.   She is extremely intelligent, capable, patient, creative, and supportive, plus she’s one of the nicest people you’ll ever virtually meet.  She is a very talented writer in her own right, so check out her stories!

Sixth, go read this latest chapter of IND and enjoy!

Two posts in one day??? What Gives?

Banner for ITE Ch 26_edited-2

What gives is you guys need to thank Gyllene for I Never…Did that was up earlier while I was knocked out from Nyquil.  With HUGE thanks to Meridian for Betaing it for the deadline that I was asked to for it to be done.

And yes, this an update for In The End.  This one you owe mistressjessica1028 for it!  Faeregina beta’d it in one day to get it ready, then when I sent it to mistressjessica1028 in return for the one shot she posted today, she went through and found some stuff.  Nothing like a new pair of eyes looking over something.  It was awesome before, but she helped it become superfuckingawesome.  It’s a word.  Ask my Word.  It ignores stuff like that for me.  She found my biggest thing, I drop words.  A lot.  And sometimes no one picks them up, since they know me so well.  They see the word I meant to have there.

As you may or may not know, I am making banners now.  So yes the banner for the chapter is one I made.  I can’t promise to go back and make them for the chapters in the past, but for future chapters?  Yep.  I like them better.   I just finished with ITE’s character Banners, so go take a peak.

Because of working on the banners and editing a chapter of ITE, it has been added to my list for next writing period.  I finished one from this time, and have two more to do, before I unleash four stories on my Betas.  I am finishing stuff, so give me patience, cause I hate not having answers for you guys.

The You Want Blood Awards nominations open tomorrow.  Help make this as much of a success that you guys helped with the Crossover Haven.  Tomorrow, open your browsers and nominate those SVM/TB writers!

Today is the last day to get the one shots in for the Kittyinaz Writer’s challenge and for the Banner contest for the Facebook page.  I already know what next month’s prompt will be.  You want to know what it is?  Shhh.. Kill Bill.  :::laughs as she hurriedly gets to next information::

The Interview for this month will be late.. Sorry, but I really need to NOT catch MamaKitty’s bronchitis.  So I am not pushing myself and am working on what I can.  I can’t even go to the gym since it is highly contagious.  Stupid germs!

I know there is more to say, but I am wiped, and I have a couple more things to do before I can take more meds and fall asleep. Hope you like this chapter.

Enjoy!

Wendy

It’s Sunday…

Love me

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!

[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jcpyi3BArZU?rel=0]

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!

[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D_29Z3UllIM?rel=0]

And just because I liked it, here is another one from her…

  [youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gLzA9zs7Pa8?rel=0]

That is it for tonight.  I am off to finish off my two last banners, and then I will be hitting the bed.  I will see and talk to you later this week!

Enjoy!

Wendy
