Bit Late, But Lots of Updates!

Sunday, December 2nd, 2007

Well, it seems that I’m a bit late in updating this week. Sorry about that! The good news is that I completely NaNoWriMo well over 50,000 words. It was quite exciting. Now I just have a lot of editing to do. I’ve posted Chapter Five of Orange Sky. You’ll be pleased to find that Zac makes another appearance in this chapter.

While I have a lot of editing to do for Orange Sky, I’m also really excited to jump back into writing Solace! It was nice to take the break and work on something different for a while, but I love writing Silly, so I’m really happy to get back to her story.

Also, for those of you who enjoyed reading Catalyst make sure to check out tomorrow’s story at 25 Days of Christmas. It’s a companion piece to Catalyst that I wrote a couple of months ago. And if you haven’t already checked out the two stories that are already up, make sure you do that and sign the guestbook! They’re both really good. I’m already beginning to warm up and get a little Christmas spirit! wink

You should also check out the Fools Banquet Awards. It’s a short session of awards for stories from just this year. Check it out and see who’s already nominated and if you’re favorites aren’t already nominated, fill out the form and make sure they are!

And, go check out Hayley’s new domain imaginary-love.org. While I might have lost a hostee, I’ve gained a new affiliate, so I can’t be too terribly upset even though I’ll miss having her here at aitp.org! sad

And, of course, thank you to everyone who signed the guestbook: Nat, Jessica, Katie, Becca, Foxtrot, Jen, and Mel. I really appreciate your comments and the fact you took the time to sign the guestbook! I hope you enjoy the new chapter, and once you’re finished make sure you go and check out everything I mentioned above as well as Natalie’s story for NaNoWriMo - Revelations. It’s excellent and it’s my current fave, so give her some love!

Sorry For the Delay!

Sunday, November 25th, 2007

Well, first and foremost, Happy Belated Thanksgiving to everyone who celebrated! Secondly, sorry about the slight delay in the update. I’m blaming the holiday and Black Friday. I was one of those insanely early shopping, and I’m still trying to recover!

Anyway, I’ve posted Chapter Four of Orange Sky. I have to warn you that this one is a bit … insane. I think I laughed writing most of it just because it was one of those things where I found myself writing stuff I thought I’d never been including in a story. But I hope you enjoy it. It’s one of my faves of this story.

Thank you to Becca, Erin, Diana, Sara, Nat, Katie, Irene, Foxtrot, Jen, and kristin for signing the guestbook! I’m so glad to see you’re enjoying Orange Sky! I hope this chapter makes up for the delay in updating! And don’t forget to sign the guestbook. The reactions are always my favorite part of updating! wink

More Orange Sky

Saturday, November 17th, 2007

Chapter Three of Orange Sky is posted. I know many of you wanted more Zac, so I think you’ll be pleased. I know someone mentioned that Zac was rather vulgar, so I’ll just give you a forewarning that you should probably brace yourself for more of that in this story. Hopefully, it won’t offend anyone too much. wink

I’m keeping this update short, so thank you to Nat, kristin (x2), Katie, Irene, Kristin, Amber, Mel, Misti, and Foxtrot for signing the guestbook! I’m so happy with the response this story has gotten so far. I really wasn’t sure what to expect considering the content and such, so I’m really happy, and it’s also been a lot of fun writing Hanson as a band again, and I know some of you mentioned enjoying that as well, so I’m happy to please! I hope you enjoy the new chapter!
