Still Alive!

Saturday, June 14th, 2008

It’s been a while, huh? I apologize for the lack of updates. I’ve been struggling with writing lately. It’s just hard getting back into the swing of things. I have a few small updates that I wanted to make, though.

First things, The Spark Inside is back in full swing. So far six stories have been posted, and several more yet to come. My story is called If Only and it’s already been posted, so, see, I have been writing!

I also set up a new section on the site that’s a collection of all of my drabbles and short stories. You can fine the link on the sidebar under Vignette Collection. There are some new drabbles up that I’ve just been working on at random.

I have been working on Solace, and while I don’t have a new chapter for you right now, I did send off a chapter to my beta. As soon as she has a chance to read over and get back to me, I’ll put that up as well. There’s also a new theme. Zac and Silly to help get me back in the spirit of Solace.

So I hope you’ll check out the updates, however small they are. And thanks to Foxtrot, Katie, Molly, Jen and Cathy for signing the guestbook. It’s been so long since I’ve updated that I’m surprised anyone still visits. Hopefully, I’ll be able to liven the place up with some more updates soon!

The Spark Inside

Saturday, March 29th, 2008

I’m still alive! Sorry about the lack of updates. I’ve been really busy the last couple of weeks with work and school, and I really haven’t had much of a chance to do any writing. I have a couple of chapters of Solace that I need to read over and send off to my beta. I’m going to attempt to do that, amoung a million other things, this weekend. With any luck, I’ll have a new chapter for you next Friday. *crosses fingers*

I’m so happy that you all enjoyed the ending of Orange Sky. I miss it so much already. Not enough to write a sequel or anything, but maybe some drabbles. We’ll see. Thank you so much to Chelsi, Diana, Renee, Jessica, brooke, Sara, Katie, Nat, Hayley, Jen, Gotyou, and Alissa for all taking the time to sign the guestbook and let me know your thoughts on the last chapter of the story. smile

In the meantime, while I’m trying to get my crap together and find time to write and update something, I’m actually updating today because I’m bringing The Spark Inside back for another round. I meant to update about this sooner because signups have been open for about a week already. Anyway, I wanted to post here and spread the word. I hope that if you’re a writer, you’ll join in this year. It’s really a lot of fun, and lots of really great stories have been written in the process. So if you’re interested, check it out for the specifics. We have a new challenge this year that I think will produce some really interesting results. And, if you could help spread the word, that would be wonderful!

Hopefully, I’ll come bearing real updates next week!
