I went through each and every page looking for anything that had been marked Pending and checked to see if it had been done by betas. There are still a few out there for the betas to work on, and I am all done with all the updates to chapters I am working on.
What do I mean by this? That all I the chapters I wrote (Aos Si) and any I worked on (Our Road) is updated in WordPress. Now I can work on new chapters for the Original Fiction, and for tomorrow, I can work on the Sacred chapter I have been working on. I should say finish it. The trouble with this chapter is that I want to read the rest. But I am going through and seeing if there is something I need to clarify. Something I see in the movie, that I am not seeing on ‘paper’.
But at least there hopefully is one chapter out there for you to read!!!!
And I know I was light on pics, (unless it was a chapter I had loaded with pics before) but seriously, I am tired and I think I worked a little too long. I am off to relax, and hopefully eat some more. Food is kinda important.
Enjoy the chapters, and I will let you know when the transfer has finished. Thanks for all who donated, this is the money you donated in action. If we didn’t move, there would have been pictures going missing and who knows what else. This way, we might get more action on our ‘issues’ when they happen.
So you guys have noticed I am not online the last week nor have I really posted anything…
The reason is one, I was sick all week. Different stuff but basically lots of headaches and my stomach.
The other reason was that the site is being moved over. They are having issues with it, seems they get about 65% of the way done then something happens. I checked with Robin to make sure this would be ok, so today I will be trying to post a bunch of updates. I hate doing this since it throws off my stats, and I can’t easily tell what stories you guys are enjoying the most. So please at least like the story if not comment so I can get a feel on what is going on?
The bad thing is that I cannot be sure when I will be able to update until the move is done. I for one, am excited to see how the move will affect some of our backend things, but I suspect that it will be the same. WordPress needs a better database for pictures. That is my biggest complaint I have is the pictures. I went back and reread some of my stories (tin man and OUaT) and they were missing pics. Some were grayed out boxes, others were just missing, but I know I made the banners at least for the top of the pages.
*sighs*
So I will be working on this for as long as I can before I veg out. I don’t want to push myself too much since today is the first time I felt kinda normal. Not 100% but at least not wanting to stay in bed and be bored reading… I exhausted a new fandom already.
It might take me a bit of time for each update to make banners, but I promise to have some up today. Sorry to flood your inboxes, but I think you guys deserve them.
Yes, we are still planning to redo the site, but I spent all day first doing my nominations, then working on moving everything to the sites. I started having technical difficulties, but I will have A03 & Fanfiction Affliction updated tomorrow hopefully. I’m finishing up the Better In Texas one right now… I needed to watch the Slide show to make sure I have all the updates.
They will be updated weekly, so I can make the banners without stressing myself out like I was just doing.
This is it, folks. You have 9 hours to get those entries in unless you have talked to me about an extension. And you still even have time to contact me about them! And don’t forget to pick up your Participation Banner!!! It’s in the page, that is linked to the above banner.
Also… Once those entries are in, you have limited time on the site…
See we are doing what I suggested before… We are moving hosts. We had Blue Host but got insider information, so our wonderful Robin aka 4Padfoot went out and has snagged us a shiny new host. I am going to make sure all the other sites are updated to not make it where you have any interruptions in reading. I am on: Better In Texas, FictionPad, A03, TWCS, Fanfiction Affliction and Fanfiction (but not really). My name is the same on every site.
What does this mean? This means Thursday night, the site will go down as we move the site over to the new host. I say we, but it is really Robin who will be doing it. I will assist her in any way I can, but there is not much on my end. I am the writer, banner making sometimes and someone who is working her way through how to do things on the site. Heck, I am happy how to figure out how to add things to the site, though Robin has to go behind me and make sure everything is ok.
She is awesome!
Reminders,
GET YOUR NOMINATIONS IN!!!!!
I admit, time slipped through my hands, so the next thing I am doing after hitting publish is going to put in my nominations! Are you going to join me?
Also, there is the new contest. I am excited about this, the possibilities are endless. A crossover is your only restriction. And then I gave you some hints courtesy of BuzzFeed. I would love to drop on that post, and tell the lady who compiled all that, there are some answers to her requests!
I just did this interview over at the Non-Canon Awards!!!
About me – I have stated that for now I am only editing chapters for fanfiction, (I have 30+ on Sacred alone!) and until I am done, I will be doing on that as I work on writing the Original Fiction. I have only months left to get that done. If I don’t then Fanfiction will be dropped to push through the dream of working through writing. So please, no demanding comments that I have to finish stuff. I want to finish stuff, I really do. The muse goes where it wants, and do you really want lackluster chapters? Written for the purpose of only giving you chapters and no meat in it? Why?
For those that ask about When I Pretend… All I can tell you, is that Every Dark Night has made it hard for me to continue with the plans for What If. I am having to shit that story cause I can no longer write Alice the way I saw her when I first wrote her. Also, I wrote that one in the midst of losing my job, sick and barely able to leave the house. To say I was depressed to one of the furthest reaches I have gotten is not far off the mark. I have struggled with it, and am bringing it out of the darkness it resided in. I have more to write on it, just haven’t got there yet.
However, When I Pretend is going to be worse on Alice and Edward if not the rest of the Cullens. I cannot write and finish What If if I work on that one too much. That is not fair to that story. I had warned people from the beginning that I wrote When I Pretend to some requests of fans, even though I had not written much beyond the first couple of chapters. It was in the section for pending stories and never meant to be more than that.
Now, the people who follow me here and talk to me through here, have not been as pushy as others in the other sites. But there are a few who do it here as well. All I have to say is that telling me to write on a story or else is not the way to get me to work on it. If anything it makes me mad and I could work on it, but never release a chapter, cause why should I? To have you get hateful when I go to others?
So let me go where I want. I will ALWAYS finish stories. Never giving up on any of them. I am going to work on reposting Tea Shoppe for Twilight and Alice fandoms here when I get a breather. I have no beta for it, but I have people asking for it. While I can add it to the Universe I am building, I figure why do that when you guys want it so much? I never thought the story would be liked as much as it ahs been. Shocker to me.
I am off to post some chapters to the other sites, then go back to working on my original Fiction. I have a chapter of In The End and Our Road is Long out to betas. They have real lives as well, so give us all a break. I know there are stories out there you want, but some of them are waiting for real life issues, and I rather give my betas all the support through their real life issues than demand chapters from them.
Though, I have to warn you, this chapter starts a sad cycle, but necessary to the story. No wish is ever granted like this one had, without pain involved. If you mess with timelines, there are going to be consequences.
And this chapter is beginning those consequences.
However, this is me. I can’t go too long being sad. I have a plan, and for why this had to happen the way it did.
I give huge prompts to my beta for this. She worked on it, and I gave her a heads up that I will be forwarding a new chapter of Edge towards her probably tomorrow.
Yes, Tomorrow is the start of the Fanfiction weekend. Before that happens, I am finishing up a chapter of Aos Si. It’s an actiony scene and major. It starts them off towards the story and bringing in the universe they are involved in now in more detail.
Which I will say, I am thrilled to be getting to the meat of this. I may go back and write more on their last school year, but it is not that important to the story. I hit on the high spots, and now we are getting ready for the battle coming.
So enjoy this chapter of Our Road is Long, while I write my little heart away and then write you another post for today on that chapter update.
I’m getting excited.
So reminders, The contest.
You are now reminded.
You Want Blood Awards.
Go send in your nominations. If the stories you wanted nominated are not, it’s your fault. This is your time to shine, to suggest the stories for the categories!
And I know there are more reminders, but seriously, I can’t remember them right now. Maybe later tonight?
Yes, you read that right. The first chapter of this week is done.
Though, it is a short one, so it is no big deal. But I needed it to finish up High school for them. But now their free time is over, Mordred is on the move. Too bad for them.
I will probably expand on it more later, but for right now, I am just trying to get ideas on ‘paper’.
I have also sent in another chapter of Our Road is Long. Once the beta is done with it, I will let you guys know, so the general public can get to the stories.
Don’t forget the You Want Blood Awards and submitting your nominations!!!
Also there is my contest, Outlaws and Angels to submit for as well.
Bertie Bott sent out a request for any of us who are continuing the stories that they submitted for her Superhero Contest, please let her know so she can supply links to the stories.
We are still looking for donations for the site. We have enough for renewing the site, but not to pay the security. We are also are leaving the donation button up for you to use.
All in all, I think you guys probably like what is going on, you are getting more updates as Natsgirl pointed out. I never thought about it that way, but I am getting rid of all the stories that have prewritten chapters done. Of course it doesn’t help when I go off to read the rest of the story coughEdgecough. But as long as I can get work done, it will be good.
Right now, we have been rained on. For some reason, my allergies are trying to overrun me, making it hard to sleep, since I keep sneezing like crazy. Stormy has been jumping and looking at me like I am crazy, since I normally don’t sneeze like this. Luckily no flooding around here, but then, even when everyone is being flooded, we live in a pier beamed house, that is a good foot or so off the ground. So we are not so worried.
I am off to work on clearing my inbox of writers that I follow, so I can get them on my site and on Robin’s. Have you submitted your site to me at Kittyinazsbetas@gmail.com? The banner needs to be 888×499. If you want to know if I already done your site, look on my Blogs I love, and see if your ‘card’ is the standard size. More of the entries at the beginning are of the cards, since I was working alphabetically from my list. If you want to submit a banner, or your site for my listing, please send it to the email. If you want to replace your ‘card’, please send to the same email.
I’m off, I need to link up everything in this post, then I need to try to get rid of the headache I have from my sinuses. Which unfortunately means I am too tired to work, but not tired enough to get my mind to just shut up. And food might be good.
Thanks!! (banner on top is your link to the story, after this post, you guys will need to contact us to find the secret way into the Original stories that are not being published)
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…
