Friday’s are Grandma days. I usually, if I want something to go out, schedule it. But…I thought this time I would be up for it. But when I went to bed, I forgot and gave myself that extra half hour of sleep.
Basically, I failed.
So today, I am finishing out the last of the prompts. Yep, you are getting the last four, as well as the page for the Prompts is now showing them all.
There they are!!! Hope something inspires you to write something. I look forward to reading them as well as making the banners!!!!
Click on the frist banner to be taken to the Page for the Contest, it has a slide show showing all of the prompts.
Also, we are changing some things on the side-bars. I added a section for all the sites I am affiliated with. I could be an admin, a contributor, or it a place I share my stories with. I also added social media buttons, in case anyone is interested. (those were little bitty ones, easy!!)
4Padfoot and I are going to be updating the Teaser links. We are trying to decide on the layout, if we will just update the side menu (it will be banners) or make a page or whatever. The teasers will connect with the events that 4Padfoot made to make it easier for me to update them. I looked at the list the other day, and we have teasers for sooo many more. The Facebook Group is where I try out ideas, and the response I get from them determines alot of time what I work on.
I tell you, the muse loves praise, and the ladies in that group are amazing to feed her!!! I also am always on there, and it is often where people can get ahold of me.
I am off to work on some banners, then I will be binge watching OUaT since I finally got to where I want to go AU. I want to know everything that goes on later so I can tie it all in. I have to figure out how to deal with Neverland since I started before that arc.
LMAO…. sorry, I was listening to Believe by Mumford and Sons. And it got to the part that made me like the song, which makes me want to sing… And the song has been stuck in my head since I woke up. LOL!
Woohoo!!! Two more prompts to showcase today, and tomorrow, the Kittyinaz’s Group will have all the prompts. You guys will get the last on Saturday.
So here they are:
To answer some of the questions that I am getting (and the one person who managed to ask both at the same time. I guess great minds truly do think alike!) To claim a prompt, you just have to send it in with the email to Rissa. Yes, you can do more than one. No one will know since it is all anonymous, so why would it matter? I rather have more stories to read than a few. The whole idea is to inspire people to write. I am thrilled when I see new writers come out of these contests, and it is why I support them as much as I can. (well, as much as my flighty mind can remember!)
For those wondering, I finished another chapter of Best, I just need to sit down and edit it. I learned why I have a co-author on this story. I can’t do Emma. I really can’t. But Killian? Yes!!!!! I know exactly what I want his story to be. So I will finish the chapter that is the episode The Doctor and send it to the ladies, then work on Tallahassee which is where I get to start the real AU, and get away from the typingup the episode with my slant on it.
YEAH!!!!
I truly like being independent of writing the story lines. That is the writers who did the show, I like it when I get to off script and make it my own story. Which it is, but MORE my own story.
Which is a hoot if you have followed me from the very beginning. I did the entire movie of Alice Syfy writing the scenes up with my own slant. Then I had to go back and redo it, cause hello my first ever story. I was so sick of watching the movie, as well as reading it, I could never go back and reread it. But, I will be going back to revisit it here once Mknue is done editing the last of the chapters written, so I can catch the tenor of that one. It was before I got too sick, so I should be able to pick it up easier than What If.
And yes, What If was started in a dark time in my life, which is why it is harder to work on, as well as When I Pretend. But When I pretend is going to be freaking epic when I can have time to work on it. It is why I am putting it to the side while finishing up some of the other stories. I want to dedicate the time it deserves. It may not seem like it, but I am working on quite a bit all at one time. I am trying to get enough done that there is something for you guys to read while I am gone, or even while I am back and working on the others.
It truly is alot of work I put in behind the scenes, I do the banners, the writing and often the posting. My betas truly rock the kasbah with trying to keep up with me. And it is why I have a team. No one gets overloaded, since I am very careful in trying not to do that.
So I am off to work on the last episode that I have to transcribe, then I am a free elf!!! Kittyinaz is a free elf!
Since I am so late today, (I woke with BAD charlie horse cramps in my legs and toes) I am going to give you two of them. And in fact, I may just do two at a time anyways.
Today’s prompts:
Also, there is a Prompt contest going on over at the SVM/TB Fanfic Exchange.
Timeline:
Submit prompts: Between now and 30th October.
Claim a prompt: 1st November
Challenge ends: 18th December
Stories will be posted: 20th December
Voting for your favorite: 27th December
Winners announced: 1st January 2016
The prompts can be either written or a banner. I plan to hand over a couple banners I have done, that way there are some pictures. I broke my brain doing these prompts, so I don’t want to do that one!
I won’t be able to enter this one since I will be busy getting ready to leave, as well as being gone in AZ for most of the time. But I fully intend to give some prompts out!
Also, good news for anyone who reads Best, one huge chapter was finished and sent off to the other author that works on it with me. And when I finish here, I will be going off to work on the next. These ones are a little harder since I have to watch the episodes, write what I see going on, then add in Killian and Emma’s thoughts. At least now they are on screen together now!
Slowly but surely I am working through my list. After Best is Sacred, and I will be writing at night while editing during the day. I have 30+ chapters, so we should be good for that one.
Yep, I am doing this early. Since I am still up, I wanted to get it out so I am not worried about it tomorrow. I have no alarm set, so I will be sleeping until I wake up.
Today’s prompt is a short one:
Per a request here is what it says: If a character could have one wish come true for Christmas, it would be:
4Padfoot was her awesome self, and she also got the Page up for the contest which you can find by clicking on the prompt.
I am looking forward to seeing your stories!
Also, don’t forget my challenge to you guys. If you like or follow a story, leave a comment behind for the author. I have been doing this, have you?
Yeah… I didn’t like it much when I got up to go to the gym. But hey, it has to come so we can get to the weekend faster. Now… In my honest opinion, the weekend can just not end, but I saw that cartoon when Christmas didn’t end and I learned my lesson.
Hey!! Don’t judge!
lol.
I am running back and forth from the kitchen and here. I came from the gym and started dinner, which is my own sauce that I made up one day and it a fan favorite. The bad thing is that I am bad about being patient, so I learned to go into another room and work on something, checking on it for this stage. (Cooking down the broth before the sauce is added.)
Which leads me to reminding you guys that there is a Kittyinaz’s Group Food Blog that is being updated at least once a week. They are planning some awesome stuff, and my sauce recipe is there. And there is a YUMMY as heck Sweet potato casserole that has a 5 star rating from all who taste it. Shoot, last year, I only got one serving, my parents ate the rest.
Also, there are contests that are either in the voting stage:
Or in the submitting stage:
Go over and look them over!
In Addition, you will be getting a post a day for the next 10 days. I am announcing the start of the Christmas Writing Contest!
As some of you may remember, I am leaving this year for Tucson, AZ for a couple months. I leave the day before Thanksgiving, and will be back in January some time. Last time I went there, I wrote All I Want, and I plan to write it’s sequel. As well as many other things.
So I am planning to start the contest Thanksgiving, that way you guys can start reading the contest pieces. I am going to be announcing this as much as possible, and ask that people spread the contest also.
This year, I decided on prompts. There are 10 of them. These are what are going to be revealed each day, with the Facebook Group getting them a day early. I will tell you one of them has inspired me, then I went, I already wrote something close to it. The last prompt is a wide range of them, but I am hoping this will help you guys come up with ideas.
Today’s prompt:
I hope to see entries!!! I will be working on them as they come in, to make it where I am not burdened down on the week I am trying to leave. The entries need to be in by midnight November 21st, CST. Once all the prompts are in, (or if 4Padfoot comes up with an idea) we will showcase the page.
I overworked her I think.
I am off to check dinner, and hopefully be able to finish up the last chapter of the written Clocks for betaing. Dying to start again is in my hands, and I am looking it over. This weekend was a wash on doing anything but the Christmas Contest.
I am normally off on Sundays, not to be online or anything I do normally.
However, you guys are getting this courtesy of :
She was crazy Kitten and the only way to chill her out was to work in Photoshop. As you can see it worked. Whew.
Since the contest ended last night, I went ahead and did the Banners. As promised, we did 4 places. And the votes between 4th and 5th were one. Yes, one vote. The others were close too. So your votes do count! I wish to congratulate all the authors, since you are all winners in my book. As such, the Banners are now all updated with your names.
First place is:
Down below are the rest of the banners, (including the Goblin) in full size. Please congratulate all the writers. It takes guts to write in these contests. I hope everyone enjoys their banners, and I make them for you guys since you are brave to enter these contests of mine. I remember when I first started out, Banners were gold to me. Almost unattainable. So I do this to encourage the ones who are trying to figure out if they want to try.
Also don’t forget, there is a Banners for adoption for you guys. Just to toot my own horn, I will put in a slideshow the banners that are out there to be adopted. I will and have changed characters per the request of the author. I literally make them often to entertain the kitten lately, and Morgan in the past.
Now that the little hellion is awake (Thanks MamaKitty!!!) I am off to see what else I can entertain her with. Thanks again, and congratulate. Authors, you are more than free to reply to the messages!
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…
