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.
Yes, I can play on words too for the title of the Post… I just have so much other things to play on also… What can I say?!?! I’m easily amused!
So.. The chapter you guys are waiting on… Click below for it!
Another reminder. I do give my betas the week of Thanksgiving off. So… This will be the last All I Want until after Thanksgiving. And be prepared for Christmas themed everything. I love Christmas. I will be home this year, so I am going to be pulling everything out and doing my bits.
I love cold weather. I woke up this morning in a COLD room, cuddled under warm blankets. It is one of the best feelings to me, and I love just to lie there with a big ole grin on my face enjoying it. When I got up, I made tea, and a bowl of coco wheats. I celebrated the beginning of winter in my own way.
I also get more energetic during this season. No idea why. but I am more likely to make huge meals, start exercising, write more, clean house and so on during this cold season. Doesn’t make a lick of sense! I’m Slavic mostly, and we normally hibernate during this season. Me? I am willing to do way more than I do during the rest of the year. Go figure.
So I am here, working, while my tea is going cold too fast in a cup, but the container I have that it won’t get so cold in, keeps things warmer than my carafe. Yes, it has been known to keep my stuff warm for an hour after the carafe goes cold. I need either another one or one in between. Or a new carafe!
Ok on to the Monday Madness!
This is hard to decide to pick who. So many people deserve it, and I have no idea any more who all have got it. So be patient, you will all be done, I am just going through it all and making notes when I do it now!
This week I wanted to introduce someone new, but who has been one of my sounding blocks. I never knew I was part of the group who inspired her, cause you know, who could I inspire!?!?!?
Anywho the person of the week is:
This woman blows me away on how much she writes, and how fantastic she is!! Her stories are so varied, and such unique takes on it all that I just shake my head and enjoy.
She was one of the ones that the thief stole her stories, And she is also one of the ladies who support anything I want to try out. And if you make her a banner? Wow is she thankful. She came online to Facebook, and then we talked her into WordPress. Which was about the time that we moved this site.
She had a health scare, and it was not one any of us would want. It drove home the fact that we are all human, and makes me value her so much more, knowing how close we came to losing her. Glad my curse didn’t take this year so far! (Yes I knock on my wooden desk!)
Today she announced she was back to writing, and posted the announcement and chapter on her Blog. If you click on the banner of her name above, you will be taken to her blog.
Also, she is one of the authors who are joining the Anthem of the Angels universe. I truly cannot wait to see what she is going to do!
I am off to work on chapters until Hubs calls, then work until he gets home, then I need to work on dinner. Busy busy life!!!
A new chapter of AIW is ready and waiting for you courtesy of Mknue!!! She got this ready for you guys. Click on the banner below, and please not the warning on the Banner.
Ok, I need some feedback. I am posting more (since I am working to rid of all those pesky chapters that are already written) and to be frank, on Sundays, I spend the time with my hubby. Often I am working so late on AotA and other thigs on Saturday I go to bed and go.. Damn the Sunday post.
I am thinking of eliminating it completely. But I want to know if you guys enjoy the videos. If you do, I can sneak a couple in sometime during the week. Maybe Tuesdays? You tell me what you like. Feed back is ALWAYS appreciated.
Mondays will be the new home of the Person of the Week for sure. Since I have so many people to thank for all their hard work!
This week is 4Padfoot and Gyllene. Why two? and haven’t you done them before?
Why yes I have. But between those two wonderful ladies they keep this site running smoothly. I had a reminder this past week of what all they do, as I did some of my own links and so forth since there are such days unfortunately as sick and vacation (well not that one is unfortunately!).
To keep up the links on this site is not easy. Not difficult no, but very time consuming, especially when we have new stories that came up to start.
Both ladies also help me out when I ask questions, and they rock my socks right off. I would say soo much more, but I have limited time before I am gone. Click on the icons below to be taken to their sites!
Which brings me to, I won’t be on today. I have dentist working on the other side of my jaw, and it aint going to be fun. Poor Murphy is going to be in a crate most of the day since I will come home, take some Aleve, and go to sleep. Hoping that I don’t bite anything important.
Update on Murphy, he has now started his medicine on his skin, Allergy and the mange one. He has gained weight, and my mom found out how exhausting puppy training is. She doesn’t have the help of Connor like I do, even then, it is just mostly Connor keeping him company. But she managed a day without accidents. Yeah!
He is looking better, and all of us can’t wait until his skin is all healed. Mange and Allergic reaction to flea is not a pretty smell let me tell you. WE have wipes that we use each day, but can’t bath him too much.
But… He hops. Yes. Hops. And he is running through the house with Connor. Playing, being so active and loving it aint funny. He licked my mom’s cat yesterday, not once, but five or so many times, and Tucker had this irritated look on his face. they play so much and love to play around my desk. So I can be working, and have my desk suddenly rocking from the two of them. Right now as I type this, they are running through the house back into here. they race around the island in the kitchen, and Connor outsmarts the puppy each time. Fun Times!
I am going to end this so you guys can read, and I can share this everywhere it needs to be. Enjoy the chapter!
Yeah. I already used the camel last time…. So what could I use….. Oh!! A warning sign!!! We all know how much I love those!
Seems a good one to remember. LOL! Yes. I have a sense of humor. Not many people get it, but I have one.
Ok. It’s Wednesday!! Start of the publishing week, which means that all the old chapters are being loaded on those sites that don’t have an awesome person who loads things for us. You know who you are. You are just wonderful.
Meridian is the bomb for loading things for me. AND she betas! What the heck!! That lady is awesome!!! Really. I couldn’t do so much as I do without her or the other ladies that beta for me.
So here is the chapter you are waiting on:
Yep.
Now here is the bad news. I need to write more. This is the last of the stored chapters. It might not be right now, since I am In the middle of working on the Mummy Crossover. And it is taking more work than I thought it would.
The good news? I am working on things. First chapter of The Mummy Crossover will be up on Saturday.
I am spending ALOT of time on Murphy. Here are some pictures for you to see how bad this poor puppy is:
He is estimated to be 9m-1year old. He is VERY friendly and knows humans and homes. So yes, he was a pet until someone left him, and since he hates to be in a car, we think he was abandoned. But unfortunately, he has some issues as you can tell. the first thing they did at the vet was give him a pill to kill the fleas he had on him.
***WARNING This might break your heart!!***
He had so many fleas when we found him, he looked like his skin was moving. WE sprinkled some essential oil on him called Thieves, and he was bad, but not even close to that when we took him in on Sunday. But there was still an alarming amount for the Vet. They decided the first thing was the pill. It was harsh, and his poor tummy couldn’t take it, but he could have died from fleas.
Next he had the deworming medicine that we gave him Monday night. Poor thing. That is harsh on the system, and where he was still sick to his stomach. He needs to be on a allergy pill for his allergic reaction to the fleas, and one for the mange he has that is NOT contagious.
***Crying Part over***
Basically the poor puppy has had a rough time of it, but we are pausing for the medicine to get through his system, and his body getting used to the fact there is food for him.
He is such a sweet animal, that everyone who meets him, are amazed that he was left. He just loves on anyone that gives him attention.
So this is why I am not getting much done, since a normal puppy would be taken out every half to an hour. He would be normally a longer time, but his poor tummy can’t handle stuff so we are watching him when he is awake. Plus nights are not easy for me. I sleep lightly and he cries. So not much sleep, and I am floating the days until someone can be home to take care of the puppy and I sleep. Not much is getting done. But he is worth it all!
Today he is much more active. Now that all the things that were draining his blood are gone, we have more hope since he is being active. The picture of the night we brought him home from the vet, he took Connor’s chair. I’m happy to tell you, he has managed to steal Connor’s Kong twice, and his spot at my feet once. lol!
So forgive me for not getting things done as fast as normal, but I will write the next chapters as soon as I can. I really want the mummy series part one done, and then I can look at all those stories you guys want updated like Harry potter, What If, Clocks, What I have of Edge (2 chapters!) Sun, and everything else started. Before I work on them, I will work on IND.
I have to admit, I have had the chapter published for a long time (again the ladies in the group knew) I got busy with Murphy and forgot to post this afternoon like I wanted.
So yes. the new chapter of All I Want is ready! Click on the banner above.
Also, First chapter has been sent and returned for The Mummy Crossover. I am working on the second chapter right now. the day picked for that to be published will be Saturday, and so will Clocks when I get to it. So now we will have Saturday Posts.
The schedule (That is NOT written in stone!!!!!!!!)
Sunday – Sunday Post, day off for all betas and me.
Monday – All I Want
Tuesday – None
Wednesdays – I Never Did, Week starts for posting so all old week stuff is published on other sites.
Thursdays – Wisdom, Justice and Love
Friday – Heavenly (When it starts) and Cross The Line on AoA
Saturday Mummy Crossover, and Clocks (When it Starts)
So you can see things will be getting busy for posts. But then… you guys are not going to complain right?
And what does this mean? Well besides the old chapters being updated on the other sites…
And that this is the start of the new Posting Week for me. New Chapters start for me, for the other betas to know about. Why Wednesdays? Why not? Actually it has to do with me wanting the betas to have rested over the weekend, and if they couldn’t get to something over the weekends, they have additional days. I encourage them to pick a day, and we try to stick to that. Ok. I admit it is for me mostly. I like something to look forward in the week, and this is something I get to gleefully look forward to. Happy?!?!? Wait… I have more to say. So.. Keep on trucking… I mean reading!
Ok.. Yeah it is Hump Day… (I think I will have to do the GEICO Camel.. yeah… As the main pic for this post! See how these posts come about now?)
Oh yeah. We are closer to Friday which is my posting day for the Anthem of the Angels Universe… Which… I am getting hints on some more authors talking to Rissa about stories. We are also looking for people who would like to help out with the Banners and well, anything you can think of. PM Charissa Horton and she will be able to coordinate everything. Banner makers are only the ones who are needed the most right now, but there are lots of jobs that someone can do. You know how to work WordPress and do links? Oh yeah. You will be needed! Linking is a heavy thing to be doing, since we are wanting to make sure it ties into everything. You want to learn WordPress to be able to help? Heck yeah!!! I can teach you what I want, and even set up with a site to play on.
So. What is this post about Kittyinaz? umm….. ::looks around the room trying to remember what she came in here to do:: Oh yeah!!! THIS:
Yep. That is right. Another chapter of IND. There is happy news here. And bad news. I always start with bad, so I can end on a happy note. Happy notes are good.
So:
Bad… One more chapter is written. I am on a roll, and wanting to finish more stuff before I turn my attention back to this story. But I will turn back to it and write more chapters here shortly.
Good. Lots of good. One is a source of pride for me. You see, I write these things down in a sort of trance like typing session, and when I went back over it, I thought…whoa. This is an awesome idea!!! But when I went looking for a pic or Gif of what I wrote, there were none. So I sat down with my trusty Photoshop, and saved a Gif close to what I wanted. With playing with the options for awhile, thinking I saw what I wanted sometime in the past, but determined to make it work, even if I had to do it by hand frame by frame, I got the Gif changed to what I wanted. Which was happy with me, since it was a 120+ frame gif. I don’t want to spoil what I did, but when you see it, it is perfect, and I am very proud of what I did.
Good. The other is that you have another chapter ready to go from the wonderful Meridian. It is all prepped, and ready to go. In fact, if you were part of my Facebook group, you would have received a warning that I am getting ready to publish a chapter. I always let them know when I go to work on a chapter to get it ready. Make sure all buttons and so on are added. Just saying…
For all the new members, Welcome!! Glad to have you here!! This site is new, and we are playing around it. Evasmomforever, we have not forgotten you! We are still working on the site, and trying to figure out stuff. Plus… I have to be careful. I can only play so far, before I may mess up stuff. So I am cautious. But there is a lot here like the old one to allow me to play all I want and not disturb things for 4Padfoot. I don’t want to be the to break the site. That would be bad. Very, very bad.
So I am off to write up the last chapter of Wisdom part of the new story based around Points of Authority. Bertie Bott is ready to be overworked. She is not only the beta for Wisdom, Justice and Love, but she is also the beta for Cross the Line fic for the Anthem of the Angels site, and for the Harry Potter fic. She is also a writer as you all know as well as other normal jobs. The woman is a super woman!
I am also getting to move over to the last competed story I had ready, The Mummy and Twilight crossover. I will admit, I was not sure about this one. And neither were my betas to be frank. Then I started to post them as drafts here, since this site is also the backup of all stories. One of the benefits of being a beta (Or really any of the personnel behind the scenes) is being able to read anything. They read the chapters, and asked for more. This is also an installment series. I plan, just like for Wisdom, Justice and Love, that there are three parts. Since they are short, I am not looking to make three separate novels on them. So the first is ready to go.. and many thanks to MistressJessica1028 for not only volunteering for betaing, but also naming a lead character in it. or rather the Actor for it. By doing this, she also influenced the second part of the story. Yep, I listen to the betas. A lot. And blame Meridian for all stories. She likes to prod my muses too much.
Yes, I am getting back to normal, and I will go back to the Weekly posts for the Non Canon Awards. For those that have interviews involved, I am working on getting everything back to normal.
I am also be setting up a site to use for reblogs. I plan to name it Kittyinaz’s reblogs. Unique huh? It took me awhile to think of it. If you want to see what I read, or enjoyed the reblogs I did for my friends and fellow writers, I will be also seeing if I can do stuff on another site. I like helping my friends and those who just write awesome stories. And you guys seem to like them too. I will let you guys know when the sites are up and running.
4Padfoot and Gyllene have a book recommendation site. When you click in the stories, you will see it on the side. I highly recommend it!
Also, it is the holiday season starting. Please don’t forget the link for Amazon. I thank those who have helped me out already, and while these are annoying to you guys, when I stopped doing them, the link was barely used. Since this is our own site, and we have to add a lot of stuff to it to make it even more awesome, I cannot be lazy about reminding people about it. It is one of the things that we are excited about for doing the ads, since they will hopefully make it where I don’t have to remind you all the time.
Ok. I think that is all. I am going to go back to playing, and actually think of eating now that I am cleared to be able to eat and drink what I wanted along with my tea. I really need to update the Tea Blog, I have new teas and new blends that I am in love with.
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…
