The title says it all. This is long overdue but an update is warranted after my long absence.
I had things so nicely planned out, even with the short break from Adam and Bron. I had started their chapter 14 but put it on hold since I wanted to have it right.
As time went on it didn't sit well and after thinking it over I joined up for campnano together with Elaine/Mazuri. I dusted of an old story I promised to write for someone and campnano gave me a nice goal to work towards and I made that goal. I'm only a few chapters short of having it finished.
At the same time I worked on a few musings Nulli posted on her blog. They turned into a short story that is currently undergoing its final edit, once that is done I'll make it a free ebook on smashwords.
Then came the biggest blow, my laptop died and I had no back up.... something I should have done ages ago, I know.
A lot is lost but there is more I could get back from a few good friends and I had all but one chapter up on the blog here.
I've learned my lesson and I'll be backing up on a regular base now!!
My plans for the future are :
1 finish the nano story. it's "a new world awaits", a few chapters have been on the blog briefly but since I started working on it, I pulled them. Depending how things turn out they may come back.
2 if in the meantime i get the edit back for "picture perfect" I'll work on that free ebook.
3 get back on track with SIW. Though there haven't been new chapters posted, I have been working on it. Most of it will have to be redone, including background and details i had penned down in a separate file... Ed's story is being worked on, detail wise at least and Merlin and Lis have their start written as well.
I hope the holidays (aka kids) are kind enough on me to give me the time I want to write and research!!!
Once the ebook is up and running I'll be sure to get the link spread around.
About Me
- Mokkelke/Tanja
- @ home, behind my computer, Belgium
- I'm a rookie writer enjoying the flow of words sprouting out of my fingers. Sometimes it goes easy, at other times it's a real struggle. I love and crave any kind of feedback, good or bad. I write when I can, but a husband, two kids, 4.2 cats (aging from 15 years to 4 months) do take up most of my time. Yet I found the time to try out something I never thought I was good at. I started writing. I came to love it and enjoy the new friendships I've made with fellow writers I simply adore (well I like the writers, but adore their work *grins*)
i know. since this last post a lot of things happened. many of them were out of my control, one of them being that i lost my latop with everything on it and no back up :(. i'm slowly getting things back together, rereading everything to sort sneak sheets and the lot.
