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*)

Linking!!
Poo! I think I got them all working so it doesn't feel like I'm abandoning everybody. I've created a page for Mokkelke on FB and linked everything with it : twitter and this blog. Since I spend a lot of time on FB anyways it was a bit overdue.
If you want to stay update I'd suggest you go on over and hit Like!

Writing is coming slowly, think it will be september before I can get back to the normal pace of things.I've started something new, to kind of force to get back into the writing groove. Doing searches at the moment but I have a bit written already!

Overdue update.
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.

Chuck Wendig flash fiction Challenge.
Chuck Wendig flash fiction challenge was brought to my attention by Mazuri. had some fun looking at some of the pictures that were revealed by the secret door. one captivated me and made a little flash fiction with it. so here goes my secret door challenge.
James cursed under his breath as he stood in the tiny
kitchen area, watching the comings and goings of his little town. The stranger
was back! Riding a palomino, the man sitting on it was tall, his hat shaded
most of his face but didn't hide his strong jaw and the dark stubble covering
it. He watched him stop in front of the only saloon his town had. The muscles
strained against the worn fabric as the stranger dismounted. James cussed again,
he should not have these feelings, they were forbidden and certainly not
accepted.
He followed the strangers movements as he gave his horse a
once over, stopping next to its head and scratching him behind the ears. The stranger
turned as if he felt he was being watched. James froze as they locked eyes. A second
later the tall man tipped his head in greeting and disappeared into the saloon.
Relieved James let out his breath and took a few steps away from the window.
"Damn that man!"
He stomped through his little house swearing even more at
how these few glances always made his rock hard. He didn't want to give in but
his pants were brushing painfully against his hard flesh, he just needed to get
some sort of relief if he were to get outside and act as his station demanded. Tugging
his pants open was almost a relief on its own but he knew that wasn't enough,
he needed the tension to be gone as well.
His cock sprang free and his hand gripped it firmly, some
clear fluid had already escaped and coated his purple head. Rubbing over it he
then used it as lubricant to help ease his firm strokes as he quickly moved his
hand. He gritted his teeth as the emotions washed over him. His seed spilled
over the dusty floor, he didn't care, nobody visited him anyways. His cock went
limp and he tucked it away, calmed that for now he could step outside without embarrassing
himself.
He was about to turn the knob on his door when there was an insistent
rapping on his door.
"What is it?" he said as he pulled open the door. He
looked straight into the scared face of one of the waitresses from the saloon.
"There's this stranger and he's making a fuss over some
payments, claims he paid but Hoss tells he hasn't. Can you come over?" The
little chit was trembling.
"How is he making a fuss?"
"Threatening to tear the place down if Hoss doesn't
serve him what he paid for…"
"Lead the way, I'll sort this quickly."
He followed her across the street and through the saloon
doors. The stranger was casually sitting at a table, eyes locked with Hoss, who
in turn was pointing a rifle at the stranger.
"Hoss, put that down before I toss your ass in
jail!"
"What? This fool comes in here, orders food to feed an
army then refuses to pay! Like hell I'm letting him get away with that, I want
my dimes. You should throw his ass in jail for trying to fool me!"
James turned towards the stranger. He didn't look guilty,
more like amused and very relaxed.
"So, mister, what's the hang up?"
"Bill's the name. I'm quite sure I put my hard earned
dime on the counter before he got me my food but if he claims otherwise and I have
to spend a night in jail, so be it."
James was surprised. Bill was practically asking to be
thrown into a cell.
"Amanda here told me you threatened Hoss. That alone
could would warrant a visit to my jail, I have a low tolerance for things like
that in this town. We like things peaceful. So if Hoss says you haven't paid, I
believe him." James turned toward the other man. "Now put down that
pea shooter and I'll have him sit in the cell for a night. You'll get what is
due to you in the morning, one way or another. Ok, Hoss?"
Hoss only nodded his agreement before slowly lowering his
rifle.
"Bill, handcuffs or not, your choice, but you're coming
with me."
James watched how Bill stood up and stepped closer. He was
well over six feet himself but Bill was easily half a head taller than him. He was
patiently waiting for him to put some cuffs on him, his stretched out hands
indicating his compliance. Without saying a word both men crossed the street. James
held the door to the sheriff's office and waited for Bill to enter. The tall
man stood in the middle, watching James intently, one end of his mouth curving
into a smile.
"I promise not run or escape," Bill came closer
and bent down a little, "and if you leave these on I'm at your full mercy,
you can do to me whatever you want for as long as you want."
James didn't move an inch as the words sunk in and he tried
to make sure that it were Bill's lips he had felt brushing over his ear.
"Hey, I know how things are in this godforsaken town,
but four years I've been through here and every single year I yearned for you
more and more. For all they know I'm in your jail. They couldn't care less. If you
check my breast pocket you'll find the cash that Hoss dude is after and some
extra. I just needed a way in."
James eyes grew wide, he couldn't belief this, the
implications. He could have this man, and nobody but them would know about it.
"I'm not sure just one night in jail would give me
enough time to do whatever I want."
"I can be bad and earn some extra days."
James grabbed the cuffs and led Bill to his cottage, only
one door away.
"Your ass is mine!" is all James said before Bill
turned and kissed him sensless.

I blame Elaine!!!
Looking at the badge to your left you'll see someone in particular got me crazy enough to take part of it, at least the relaxed version of it.
For this to happen I've taken down A New World Awaits since I plan to do an overhaul on it and make it a slightly shorter story as intended but with CampNano I might actually finish it in just a month. As I was checking my file I noticed it had been over 2!!! years since I worked on it at all. I wasn't 100% happy with the route I was going in so hopefully I'll get it on track and finished within a month.
And last but not least one promise to Ho-Z full filled!
Clicking on the badge will take you to the story page so you know what it is about and a few words from the start of it.
