Early morning update here! I thought I’d go ahead and get it out of the way since I doubt I’ll be online at night since my family is having a cook out and fireworks don’t start until 10 o’clock. So this week’s update is a little different. There aren’t any new chapters of Starlight this week. Please don’t hurt me. I know this is a horrible time to do this; what with Zac and Presley finally letting some of that sexual tension bubble to the surface, but I do have something to offer you in exchange.

I’ve been talking about The Spark Inside for what feels like ages now, but I’ve begun posting stories. If you haven’t been keeping up, I’m on the third theme already, and in today’s post, you’ll find my story – Catalyst. You can either read it here or here, and you can either comment on page on The Spark Inside or sign my guestbook. I’m sure you’ll be glad. There’s no teasing with this story. You get it all in one shot, so I hope you enjoy it. I’ve been very anxious to share it. Also make sure you read the other stories posted on The Spark Inside. I’ve only been a few days, but already there are some amazing stories you need to check out.

Also, I’m the author in the spotlight over at JSOR, so if there’s ever been something you wanted to ask me – personal or writing wise, you can do that here. I’m very happy and anxious to answer any questions you have! And voting is open at the Soundtrack Awards and Chaos Into Art, so make sure you stop by and vote for your favorite authors!

Many many thank yous to Kristin, Jenna, Dawn, Becca, Mel, Daiana, Nat, Kim, Paulina, Gabby, Foxtrot, and Katie for signing the guestbook. I loved reading all of your comments. I think the last chapter I posted was the one I was most anxious to get feedback on and you did not disappoint, so thank you very much! I hope you enjoy Catalyst, and next will there will be an update on Starlight.

Finally! I feel like I’ve been trying to update all night. I started earlier, but then my sister and niece showed up and distracted me for a couple of hours. I guess I can’t complain. Quality sister time is good, right? So, anyway, I’ve just posted Chapters Twenty-One and Twenty-Two of Starlight. I also added the general soundtrack and some drabbles I wrote that are Starlight related, and those can all be found under the Extras on the Starlight page.

I also added all of the awards from Feel What I Dream, and I want to thank everyone again for voting for me. I really appreciate it, and also congrats to all of the other winners! And speaking of awards, Leigh is doing another session of the Soundtrack Awards. I believe the nominations are open now. If you remember the last session of the awards, you’ll remember the categories are a lot of fun, so go check that out and nominate your favorite stories. I’m going to do the same very soon.

I haven’t got around to it just yet, but you can probably also expect an update on Bridge Builders either tonight or sometime tomorrow. I’m hoping to get my head on straight. It’s been one of those days, so we’ll see what happens. And I posted some teasers from Catalyst over at aloneinthe@lj. I should be posting some more over the next few days, so keep an eye out for that!

I also want to thank Paulina (x2), Kristin, Daiana, Becca(n), Audrey, Katie, Hayley B, and Mel for signing the guestbook. I appreciate the comments, and the story should really start to pick up in the next few chapters, so thanks for hanging in there! I hope you enjoy the new chapters even though one features that guy that everyone wishes would just go away and the other introduces something else I doubt you’ll like.
