Shinerdrinker: Blog

Like the title says, I finally decided on something last week. I decided to stop procrastinating and go ahead and write something for heaven's sake.

So after about a week or so, I found myself nearly finishing the latest chapter of Mayhem. So I went ahead and finished the chapter. It is right now out at my editors. When they finish shaping it into something readable, I'll go back into it and replace the mistakes with new mistakes.

So I'm expecting to post the next chapter sometime this upcoming week. I am finally feeling well enough to promise a return to normal (well as normal as expected) posting of new chapters.

I'm well. The family is well.

I hope you are, too.

I was winding down from a couple of hours of working on the next chapter of "Mayhem in a Pill," I noticed the downloads for my story and while I am happy about the number, I needed to put it into some kind of context.

I decided to check it against a few other of my favorite stories on the site. I started with cmsix's magnum opus "John and Argent." I stopped my search after that one. My little story "Mayhem in a Pill" is sitting at 772,515. But "John and Argent" is at 654,444. Now, of course, my ego exploded but quickly recombined when I realized what that meant. I'm having all kinds of trouble thinking that my first story has more downloads than one of the greatest stories on the internet.

Don't get me wrong, I'll take it. But I'm not going to enjoy looking up other download numbers of my other favorites. I'll either expand my ego to the point I can't lay down for sleep tonight without having to hang my head off the edge of the bed.

I'll probably do it... but I won't enjoy it. Much.

Hello everybody!

Like the title says... sorry about the silence. About two months ago I started feeling pain in my hands. At first, I ignored the pain thinking I was sleeping on my hands wrong or something but it only increased. Finally went to doctor and discovered a recurrence of my spinal stenosis. Same thing that put me in a wheelchair for months a few years back.

So I had to go to surgery and afterward spent a month in a rehab hospital to learn to reuse my hands again. (This is the most I've typed since before the surgery. I need a break.)

To add to the torture, the wifi in the hospital would not let me log onto SOL, so I've gone a month without even reading any updates for the last month or so.

I'd like to thank everyone who wrote messages to me in my absence. I just read them and the feels are real. So let me just tell everyone I have not given up on Mayhem in a Pill but I will need a little bit of time to get into the flow of writing. Plus I need to catch up on the stories I follow. Not to mention a month's worth of milf porn.

Once again, thanks for the love and I will be returning to Tim's adventures as soon as I can.

I'm openly wishing for a miracle this holiday season. No not riches and/or revenge against my enemies. But this year, I am remembering a similar season a few years ago...

It was a much simpler time. December 22, 2018.

We all received an XMAS miracle in a new chapter from Cold Creek and his magnum opus "Dman 3."

So for this season, I'm gonna ask the jolly, fat man in the red suit to bring us a new chapter.

Hopefully, Santa can convince Cold Creek to present us all a new chapter. I know I could use one.

Thanks,
Shinerdrinker

P.S. I'd even consider sharing one of my prized bottles of Shiner if it meant another chapter in this story.

Just a quick little note to my loyal readers out there. I know it has been a while but I have not forgotten y'all.

Chapter 54 of Mayhem in a Pill is with the editors and once I get their final notes, I will, of course, ignore them and post what I want to anyways.

Just kidding. My editors do a great job of turning my bad scribblings and unidentifiable sentence structures and mold them into something resembling complete thoughts.

And I am also putting a possible warning of a delay with the following chapter because of some unforeseen medical problems cropping up on my end. Nothing too serious I hope but it does make writing into and a torture device. And when one of my true reasons for getting up in the mornings is turning into torture, well we gotta fix it.

So in closing, chapter 54 is coming soon and chapter 55 might be slightly delayed. But then again I might be able to fix my problems fairly quickly and easily, then I'll get back to writing.

Maybe I just need a vacation. Meh. Now I'm depressed. Gonna find something to read and take my mind off my troubles fer a while.
