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!
I am testing to see if this one will go out right.
See, we got hacked. Big time. And as right now, we finally got a piece of what we had back that sends out the posts to you lovely people. Hopefully.
Since none of the ones last week went out…
For instance… There was this update:
And then I took the plunge and started to publish one of the Original Fictions I was working on. With a lengthy explanation on it. To enter the side of the site that has the original fiction, you need to click through here:
By agreeing to read it, you are agreeing that you know it is mine.
There has been more chapters done in the back end, but I want to see if this goes out. You can also visit the Post page and see everything else that has been going on. As well as information on the new banner on the site background… I am proud of that thing!
If this goes out, there might be another as a public service anouncement…
Guess what? Somehow in the madness of this past week, I managed to not only get a bunch of new betas. (And thank you very much each and every one of you!) but I managed to edit a chapter.
Yes, you read that right. I managed to edit a chapter of one of the stories I wrote on while I was on vacation. (more…)
So I had given up on working what I want. My muse decided that she will work on what SHE wants not what I want. So I am now working on what she wants.
Pesky Muse.
But she is working on one story. I gave a teaser out in the group, and then promptly wrote the next chapter that the betas loved. And am writing the next one. But I don’t think my group much liked the teaser. So we will see if they get more.
For those that don’t follow me on Facebook personally, it snowed here in AZ!!!! Yesterday some big fluffy snowflakes the size of small snowballs coming down. I woke up this morning expecting it gone like the last one, but the ground is mostly white (except for where the dogs and we played). So I am up early, in a warm new comfy U of A sweatshirt, candle lit, Tea made and being drank and working away while all the dogs play around me.
Hope you guys have the same wonderful day for your Friday!
First, Happy Holidays to everyone that is here. Since I am literally am over the world, I wish to let you know you have my good wishes for the season. As the darkest night of the year approaches, I hope your world is full of light, love and happiness.
Merry Christmas to those that celebrate it, as well as a Happy New Year from the Kittyinaz family. (including the pets!)
I know.. too puny for this time of night. Or day if you are on the other side of the world…
It’s been a long day, but I wanted to give you this chapter!
Right now, I am decorating my computer, as 4Padfoot plays with the backgrounds to decorating the site for Xmas. Since I am leaving in two weeks (yeah!!!!!!), and will be gone until the 18th of January, I will not be here to really deal with the Xmas stuff. (as well as me decorating the posts… warning!)
*Sighs*
But I am excited for the upcoming trip. I made a list for my iPhone that is just the Xmas songs and the more popular songs right now. It’s only 813 items, nowhere as long as the other ones. IT’s two days long, so it should be good for the trip, and how my hubs and I like to skip a song if it doesn’t fit the part of the road we are on.
Now here is the bad news. I am officially on vacation. The ladies are on vacation. Everyone is on vacation.
Well, except 4Padfoot for emergencies. And she will probably play while the boss is away.
But what does this mean??? Means it is time for me to write….
See, I have this week, which I will be more around than any afterwards. But next week? I will be running around, making lists, researching things and so forth.
And trying not to murder my iPad.
Seriously.
I have to turn it off, bend the edges and then work it for about 10-15 minutes before repeating. What is it doing? It’s called ghost touching. I can lay the thing down, walk away and no one close to it, and you can watch it move around, open apps and so forth, all on it’s own.
Yeah, it sucks.
But I will be backing up the laptop that I will be using, putting the last touches on the banners (the names and so forth) and putting the files I will be using on a thumb drive in case I can’t use the google drive. I can’t think of why I cannot, but I am not taking any chances.
Making lists, and checking them twice, and wrapping all the stuff we have already. I will also be taking the traverse for an oil change and all that fun stuff.
The weekend before we leave, Connor will need to be washed. And we will be packing the Traverse that Sunday, so all I have to do is get up, get ready and leave with the dog. Well, stop and grab me a Cherry Vanilla Dr Pepper to help me wake up.
LOL!
OK…
So some reminders..
First up, is the Christmas Contest is live and ready for you to read. Go forth, read, review, and then vote for your favorite! There are some seriously great stories in this bunch!!! And have you found the easter eggs in the banners?
I will mention that the swan has the words from the story on it….
Yes… I did put that much effort into it!
The other thing, is please remember the Amazon link!!! It does pay for things that we use monthly. I know Cyber Monday is coming, so I am not only putting the link in the pretty picture, but also as words. I saved the link as my Amazon link to the site. That is all you have to do, is click through the link once, and it will give me credit on it.
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…
