Frostfyre: Blog

Happy holidays to all, and if you don't like the holiday season, merry 'bah humbug' to you.

Sadly, my muse was not hiding in my Christmas stocking so no new stories right now. However, I've been reading Tefler and Vanessa Ravencroft lately, and while getting an fairly intense inferiority complex, they also motivated me and story ideas are bouncing around.

No promises, but Char and Becky still have a tale to tell. What happens when a ninja meets an enhanced concubine who is armed?? What happened at the court martial of Lt. Abbis who nuked a civilian transport vessel. Despite the implications, DeGaffer said I was right when I said Lt. Timmins survived the Swarm on Sa'Triste. How is that possible and what is she doing now? Somehow, she, Char and Becky all wind up in the same place. Inquiring minds want to know!

Hopefully this year those questions will be answered.

Happy reading to all, and to all a good night.

A common thread in the responses I've been getting is that the story did not seem finished. The story is, but the storyline is not. Two more stories need to be finished before I can post the conclusion, 'Trial'. The problem with braiding stories together is I either have to wait until they are all done, or post piecemeal when each story is done.

The story of the Heracles will hopefully be told from two more points of view, 'Vengeance' and 'Tornado'. The Frigia stories will be 'Aftermath' (need to finish), 'Survivors', and 'Integration'. All are at least partly fleshed out and hopefully I'll be able to wind them up. No promises on an ETA yet, sorry.

I have finally managed to lure my muse back and chain her to my desk, amidst many giggles on her part. Sadly, this is not a fun, happy story. It starts with a mass shooting, so trigger warning. While sadly apt for today's mass shooting environment, the story was originally started after the Kenyan mall shooting in 2013. There are no similarities to that tragedy beyond inspiration.

Please note, some of the characters, ships and situations referred to in this story are from my previous stories. This is the story of the shooting referenced in The Enemy Within. The stories Growing Up and The Enemy Within take place at the same time and the characters wind up on the same ship. All the stories inter-lock, with the thought being every group on the transport, the Heracles, should get their own story. The same situations will be told from multiple points of view. Since I am referencing to those stories, especially in the second and third chapters, I suggest rereading them first to refresh your memory.

The colony they are destined for is Frigia, in the Mongo-at system. This is the colony given to Governor Char, the main character in Acceptance and Aftermath. That will link all these stories together. Another person who was assigned to Frigia is Becky Snow from Amateurs. I have several more stories coming that will fully link the characters together (hopefully). It mostly depends if my muse can escape from her chains again and skitter off into the sunset like she did a few years ago.

Please leave a comment or send feedback. Love it or hate it, feedback helps the next one be better.

Apparently my attempt to split Growing Up into three easier to manage chapters failed. The new chapter was just tacked onto the end just extending the existing story. Sorry about that. I will try to get it reposted correctly. Currently, the new content starts in the middle of page 4 and continues through page 5.

Victory! The repost worked and its properly split up.

Defeat! In my haste to get the story fixed I somehow saved an old, unedited version over the correct version. So if you read the version that has the second sex scene with Alyana, you're lucky, that version seems to be gone. If you read the version that mentions Rana's dusty pussy instead of Des' dusky pussy, I am truly sorry! I just threw together an re-edited version submitted it.

I have reposted Growing Up as well. I wanted to break it into two chapters and sent it out for editing first. I wound up fixing an embarrassing number of errors that had been missed the first time through. I also wrote a brand new third chapter to help tie this story to Enemy Within. Again, chapters one and two are the same with the exception of some editing, only chapter three is new.
