Yep, you read it right. I have finally gotten with everyone to get this together.
This is mostly (99.9%) my fail. Real life jumped in and smacked me around, threw me down some stairs, and stood up at the top of them laughing at me.
I have had everything to losing over 1k of my pictures (all the background pics people. Seriously panicked), my computer kept shutting down as I made the last banner. No less than 10 times. Then I couldn’t get back on the computer. After all that, I was so sick I couldn’t even talk. To finally have a guest for a week. Since I am the one who is home, I was asked to take her around.
We even had wires crossed when I was trying to finish up, and just this was bad on my part.
But finally, I am done.
I have given a week for voting. Please read and comment on these stories. These authors took a chance to write, and I was thrilled to read them both. I got to remake a banner so many times, I thinkI can make it in my sleep now.
Also, for those wondering, I have a contest I am working on, and I am going to give myself some time to relax after this last one, then time to make the banners. No more quick turn-arounds for me to feel as if I failed everyone.
This is one of the ‘fun’ ones.
So off to read the stories, comment to encourage the writers to not give up (And again, I am SOOOO sorry!). Then VOTE!!!!
First off, I did a review on the Non-canon Awards. It is for an oldie, but goodie. I am diving into the completed stories on Fanfiction.net to go back to the stories that introduced this universe to me. While I am not reading them all, (some had sequels that were never finished and so on) I am reading some of them and will be reviewing them. I figured they deserved some love too!
The first one was…. *Drum roll* is:
Click on the banner to be taken to the review. And yes, I make banners for the stories I review if I feel inspired or they don’t have one. Otherwise, I try to use their banners. Since I only found this on Fanfiction.net, I did their banner size for them. (It works… I promise!)
The next good news?
I worked on the next chapter of The Sun Holds the Moon! I have one in reserve still (since I like to make sure that I don’t write myself into a hole in this one) but Chapter 6 is done and the beta is notified. Now… I do have to remind you that a lot of work goes into the Lord of the Ring stories, fact checking as much as possible. Yes, I have taken liberties, but there is a lot I want to remain the same. So once I am done, I hand it to the beta, who goes through and fact checks things also. But it is done on my side!
Then… I finished another story edit last night. I have to go through and make a ton of banners since it is a new story. Though I will warn you… You really need to watch this video. It is the prologue to the story, and I will be making the page for it.
Yes. Sacred is about to become a live story for you to read!!!! Well, I mean it will have a chapter to read along with the beautiful video 4Padfoot made for it! The video is important to the story. Without it, some things will not make sense. And later it repeats for another person…. All I will say is it is a dream….
In addition, I wanted to highlight a story from my completed file…
The first one is a One Shot for the TB Fandom. It is based on a song – Austin by Blake Shelton. I have heard it a few times, but for some reason, this time it clicked and this story came to be. I will say it is due to Gyllene that I published it. She loved it, so I dedicate it to her…
Description: One Shot – All Human Sookie leaves, and almost a year later, makes a call that changes everything.
Don’t forget that the Writing contest ends tomorrow at midnight CST. Thanks!!!
Ok, today’s post is brought to you by the wonderful letter, E. For Early.
Yikes. Nothing like being woke up only after a couple hours of sleep. The good thing? I can go back to sleep here in a few minutes. Hopefully, after I finish this post!
Lots of things in this post, today.
One, I added a few pages to the site last week. We have the 2016 Adopt a Banner, 2016 Kittyinaz’s Group Banner Contest (which is going on right now!), and a new page that I put up. It has all the Stories I completed and the year that they were completed. This includes One Shots. I have links to the stories embedded into their banners as well as descriptions for all of that. You can find it here. I will also be doing a post later this week featuring a completed story, starting with last year and working backward. Since I have had a lot of comments that people didn’t know there were some that I completed for contests.
Two, I wanted to thank each and every one of you for using the Amazon Link. This helps out greatly for the programs I use to do everything for the site. It helps pay for storage offsite which means I don’t have to worry about the computer crashing and losing all my stories and pictures. There was a time two weeks ago that this was a big deal! It also helps pay for the Photoshop and Grammarly. Which as you guys know very well I use a lot. The Donate button money goes towards the site only. Any monies donated there, 4Padfoot uses to pay the site costs as well as the security for the site. If there is any left over, she looks into ways to make the site be easier and faster to load for you guys.
Three, I also wanted to thank you for reading the stories on here. I love sharing them with you as well reading your comments. Many times I have gone back and read comments and they have cheered me up when I am having a bad day. I keep all those in folders (yes, I am OCD and getting worse as time goes by) and if I want inspiration to keep writing, I look at them. Your support and feeding the muse often help me!
Four, The writing contest ends on the 31st of this month! If you need an extension send them to the email address for that. I am looking forward to seeing what you guys came up with. Later today I will be thinking of next month’s contest so that can be given as soon as possible to you guys.
Five, Chapter! This chapter is brought to you by the lovely and very talented MistressJessica1028. If you have not read her stories, click on the button below to be taken to her site. Also, the chapter had been released to the Kittyinaz’s Facebook Group yesterday. I always like to give an extra thank-you to the people who follow me over there.
Now, I think that was everything since everyone is gone and I just have to let out the brats. Then back to bed, I go! I look forward to waking up and seeing what you thought of the chapter!
It’s that time. Sorry, this is coming late, but there were extenuating circumstances. If there are extensions needed, ask. They probably will be granted.
Something I read on Facebook got this picture in my head, and with the wonderful help of my beta Lorelei.im we came up with this.
I left the last word blank to leave the world you write about your own. As long as you are inspired by the pic, the quote, or both, you can enter!
The rules are as follows:
Must use prompt(s).
Use fandoms I write it. (It can be one from a story upcoming also. Just ask if you don’t know, you can ask Rissa if you don’t want me to know!)
No letting anyone knowing which story is yours.
If you submit, you can grab the Banner for Participating for the month. You will also receive a banner for the story you submit.
If explicit, you need to warn people in the title.
All entries must be received by kittyinazwritingchallenges@gmail.com by Midnight CST at the end of the last day of the month.
To enter, you can send it to the Kittyinazsbetas@gmail.com or to the Writing Contest email, KittyinazWritingChallenges@gmail.com. These are both permanent email addresses that Rissa checks for entries and really anything. Please include the name you want on the banners when the contest is over for Rissa to send to me. She sends the stories to me and erases any way of me knowing who wrote what. They are due by the 31st midnight CST and give me a few days to do the banners. If you wish to send them in early, please do.
I hope everyone had a rested weekend, full of romance, or full of Deadpool… And Yes, M took me to see it here on Friday. I loved it, but I do say, don’t take your kids as Ryan says up above. It is bloody. It is full of crude humour. Basically, it is Deadpool and what he is. Loved it!!!!
Saturday I got a surprise, my newest nephew was born. He was an early one, so nothing is ready for him, but he is needing to learn to breathe right before he can come home. The lungs are one of the last to form, and that is where he is having issues. But everything is great with him and Mommy, and we are all volunteering to help in any way.
Last week was a bust in getting much other than some banners for What If done. I am going through the chapters and adding banners, updating the buttons and so on. My new beta for What If, tj6james6 (who rocks!!!!) is going through all the chapters so that she knows what is going on.
I would like to extend a special welcome to all the people from Fanfiction who followed me over here. This site is a piece of work I am proud of and thank 4padfoot constantly for working on it. We pay for the site through the donations of some freaking awesome people. I also have a link to Amazon that if you use it, it costs you nothing, but for referring you to their site I get a small kickback up to 6%. This goes to pay for memory for the shared drive for the betas as well as the place I store all the documents so that all I ever have to do, is be able to log into it to work on stories, no matter where I am, or what I am using. It also pays for the photoshop (CC) that I use to make banners for everyone and myself.
I hate hawking myself out, but hey, if I want to continue, I needed to do something. I will tell you hosting our own site is awesome for the control we have over it. But it has its downfalls. Right now we are working on bringing the site back up to where it was before. We were hacked thanks to an error WordPress made. They corrected it as fast as they could, however, it was a little too late for us. Thanks to it, we have made some improvements to make it MUCH harder to hack into us, even if WordPress messes up. And I will say thank you to the people of Blue Host for working so hard to help us out!
Just to reiterate (from the past and above):
tj6james6 has taken over What If due to the previous Beta having to back out due to real life. It was not easy to have another work on the story since the beta is one of the ladies who volunteered when I was a nobody. I treasure those ladies the most (and you guys know who you are!) for they took a real risk with me.
I left Fanfiction (but for one chapter, and the explanation of where I am now and why I left) because of the last straw of them not telling anyone about the fact that 5 other sites wiped everything from their site to use. In other words, since they do NOT have my permission, they are plagiarizing my work. Also, by not telling their followers of the action, has left them open to accidently signing on to one of the sites, giving their passwords to the site as well as being set up to for viruses and malware. Not cool at all.
I post here first. TWCS is often updated with hours, to days of it being posted here. The rest get it a week or two later. I do post on other sites. Better in Texas, FictonPad, Fanfiction Affliction, A03, and Dokuga for my Inuyasha fic. Fanfiction will only get the first chapter and a chapter telling when I post here.
This site is the work of the fabulous 4padfoot who puts in many freaking hours! I only come up with SOME of the ideas. The front page and the main pages behind it? All her genius. There is a Site Map for those who wish to use it. I update the main page, as well as add the links in the stories.
If you find a broken link, or anything not working, please leave a message for us. We often have no idea, since most of us are logged into the backside of the site.
And there are going to be a lot of posts coming from this weekend on the reblog site. Seems I broke my iPad this time. *hangs head in shame* We are going to wait until I can get a new one, so it will be a little bit (MONTHS!!!!) but then this iPad will be the headache of my husband and not me. (thank god)
I am working on chapters like I used to in the past. Whatever I feel like. So the updates will be periodic, with no real schedule at first. Once I get back in the swing of working like this again, I will try to stick to a schedule. I post one chapter a week on each story. So even if I have more, I hold onto them to give you guys stuff to read.
And to give you guys a great start to this week, I have a chapter of What If for you!
Enjoy the rest of your week. I hope to work on some stuff since there is not much happening in my life right now. This is subject to change, since I don’t work, I am the one most likely to be called upon to help my brothers.
p.s. Whoever is trying to hack into the site, please stop. We learned a valuable lesson last time. All you are doing is annoying us this time.
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…
