Yep, Still Alive. Barely.

*Thanks again to the ladies of Facebook that share these wonderful pictures with me.  I appreciate it!

So I know I promised a chapter to you guys.  My Beta came through for you guys and gave a chapter for What If. New Chapter <~Click here for it.  It has been up for awhile, but I have not been able to notify about it.

See, I got sick.  And I thought it was all in my head.  Until my husband was in bed groaning and asking, “How can you survive this pain???????”

Yep.  I guess it was the flu or something, and it REALLY sucks.  I go out a freaking day and came back sicker than a dog.

Add to that a nose that hurts to touch, and you have a miserable person.  And when I am sick, I easily get angry.  And this wonderful piece of crap computer, was pissing me off.  Yeah.  It still is.  It would decide that it will allow me into iTunes when it wants to.  And typing anything?  Yeah, I lose myself in the story and come back to find it moved the cursor and made it a huge chapter of crap.

Oh yes, don’t forget sitting for a long while makes me still ill, so no fancy links and stuff on the chapter.  But the pic in the chapter is one of my very own.

So luckily, we got the money for the new computer, and just have to wait for it to clear to get the new one.  Then I will only use this one rarely.  After I transfer the hard drive and then crash this one first.

But last nite, I had this weird dream, about the Twilight movie and the whole Ballet Studio scene.   And lets just say mine was NOT the one you read about or watched.  It just would NOT leave me alone.   So I sat down to write it, taking a looooooong time to make sure the computer didn’t make garbage.  It is a different twist.  And one that I can pick up when I finish stuff.  It is unedited, raw.  I didn’t do the precise work I would do to match up moves and such.  But it gives an idea.  Please drop over to Possible Stories and give me your thoughts. It’s called When I Pretend.

I will try to work on In The End.  I really am not giving up on it, I love it and can’t begin to let you know how much I miss it.  Even though the last chapter I wrote got scrapped because of the mess.  It made me VERY angry.  I hate when that happens.

Also look for a surprise on an Alice story over at FanFiction.  Someone’s B-Day is this week and she begged for an update.  So I may update one of those.

And here it is

The new chapter!!! Blame Princess Morgan for the delay.  She did everything to get me to pay attention to her instead of the loud machine that takes up all of my time.  She is off pouting on my side of the bed murring me to come pay attention to her.  Silly Cat.

Right.  Well here it is… I hope to write more as the day goes, but RL is inserting itself.  Hope all you in the path of the storm made it out of stage one ok.  Now comes the recovery for some of you, and some of you are going to get hit with a double whammy and my heart goes out to you.

Stay safe and I will reach you on the flip side…

Chapter 12

Yeppp I know. I am Late.

I took that fun medicine and am loopy. So… The chapter will be posted tomorrow when I get up.  It has some new new players and some old ones all in it.

I had to work with my beta because to be truthful, I couldn’t find a pic for this to begin with.   Luckily my Beta, being the hard working woman she is, had time to fix the chapter and to talk with me to find a pic.  So Thank You, Beta!!!!!!!!!  You are totally awesome and if I could, I would send you some Soft Pretzels…. or Alex.  Whichever you prefer, as long as I can get certain parties to agree….

For all you affected or to be affected by the storm, my prayers and good luck wishes go out to you.  As a resident of the Gulf Coast, I know how it sucks with the water and wind, having been through Ike. One word.  Wet.  As a former resident of the great state of PA, Snow… fun times when you are little, sucky when you are the adult.   And you guys up there are going to get it all.  Kinda reminds me of the Day after Tomorrow….

Ok I am out before I get any more loopy.  Good night!!!

In The End Chapter 11

As promised, I have posted the newest chapter for In The End.  I have also updated the Character List.  Warning, do not go beyond the Marks and their explanations if you want to read to find out who Ian is!!!

I do recommend you visiting the Character page to read more into the Marks.  Only one is as I imagined it, but it is not complete.  So read more, I have included the link on the chapter and also below for you guys to read.

I have some questions for you to answer also, Who knows what the rivers of Death are and how many are there???  Just to have some fun since I DID research it, only to find I didn’t use it.  Also there is still the unnamed baddy in the Character list… who do you think it is???  Who knows, maybe we will pass that elusive 1k mark today.

Now, for getting back to you guys, don’t expect anything today.  I just found out some more of that ‘wonderful’ news I have been getting all month.  After I post this and Fanfiction’s version (since with this news I have no idea what is going to happen in the future.  I may find myself back in my birth city by this time next week.  NOT how I wanting to go back and visit.) I am going to go back to bed and hide for the rest of the day.  I am going to repeat to myself that when a door closes, God opens a window somewhere else, and that we are never given more than we can bear, because right now, it is getting overwhelming.  Like my dad asked me earlier when I told him what was going on, is there any good news?  If so, I REALLY need it right now.   Really.

So enjoy your chapter, I know I enjoyed writing it and have been looking forward to your reactions.  And I will enjoy them, maybe not today, but I will enjoy them.

Tomorrow.. Tomorrow

Yes tomorrow you guys will get the chapters.  There is just too much work involved with getting it out tonight and I don’t want to cheapen it.  So tomorrow you will get all you have…wait.  Nope not going to promise THAT!!

You guys will get the chapter tomorrow.  I WILL advise to go to the character page (which I will provide the link for when I post tomorrow)  (See what I mean for work involved??) when the chapter posts since it will take me a few minutes to put all the yummies in it.  The marks will be in the chapter, but the accurate description will be in the character profile.  Because no, they are not exactly what I want, but close enough.

So, be patient, and you all will have a big chapter to read.  With lots of pictures…and my beta mentioned alot of information.

A New Chapter for In The End

Yep, it’s that favorite time of the week, where Wendy gets her butt moving and updates this story for you guys. And I am trying a Gif for the first time so let me know what you think!!  LOL!!! I have been working on the website, and have been trying to add all the fancy Next/Previous and am currently working on In The End.  So some chapters you will see the fancy stuff, others you won’t.  Also I have you guys know, this is one of the few chapters I LOVE the last line.  It determined the stopping point cause there was nothing to say directly after it.

Chapter 10

If you haven’t heard, In The End has an official Banner!!! Thanks to Mavrosal for taking the time to make me it!!! I LOVE it and am so excited that someone took the time to make one for me.  Great way to make my day!!
In The End Banner and Page

From here on out, it gets mouthy, since I am in a good mood.

I don’t do the photoshop thing since I can QUITE easily see it taking me away from writing for a while to play with.  Not something I want to do right now.

Great news for those that are wondering, I am flying through this story.  I had entertained the idea of maybe doing this as a series, but my hubby convinced me not to.  He commented that it was not going to follow the series soon, so how would I divide it up after that?  So, we will keep going unless you guys want me to cut it up.  I will tell you now, if I do, unlike other stories, this will continue the lyrics of the song for the names of the sequels.  This song just set me off and still does when I hear it.  So a chapter was written in one night, quite large.  And as soon as I get settled with the Next and Previous stuff, I will be writing again.

My hubby is helping me find a new computer so soon I won’t ::crossing fingers:: have to deal with the garbage of waiting for 15 minutes for me to get to the posting page to post this.  And dual monitors… Oh boy!!!

To help me keep happy (not).  My email was hacked today.  I was out shopping for that new computer so we have a closer idea of what I want, and wham it was hacked.  I fixed it when I got home, but for any I have email addresses for, Sorry.  It took them 15+ years to do it, so I guess I was lucky!

Just some heads up, I will be adding a page for favorites.  Actually I have done it, But I think once I get serious on it, I will make it a little more fancy and separate the favorites into separate pages for each genre.  Except TB and SS.  They will just tell you what grouping it is.  I was asked for it, and it will keep it all on track for me since I lost some of my favorite writers because of the whole Fanfiction escapade.  And some of their sites don’t send out alerts.  bleh.

Enjoy the chapter, maybe we will bust the 934 high count I have on this site so far on one day, it will be a thrill for sure!!  And Fanfiction is not going to get there’s until later tonight.  I don’t know how close this chapter is walking on the line… Stupid rules.  And since ANOTHER writer of mine got taken away, I am still taking them seriously.

Enjoy!!! ~Wendy
