The last of my completed Sophie's Universe stories posted this morning. Some were well received, others not so much. It isn't a big deal, as I wrote these for Sophie and she enjoyed them. There may be more on the way as I have 3 unfinished or outlines on my hard drive.
On another note, I am currently writing for the upcoming Halloween contest. The outline is done and I have the prologue written. That is going to be my main focus for now.
I have put another story on the shelf while I focus on the contest submission but that will be next on my list. It is an Older Woman/Younger Man Romance set ten years in the future in the Canadian prairies. It takes place after a failed US invasion of Canada which precipitated a 2nd US Civil War. It might be a controversial issue for some but it's fiction (at least for now).
I'd like to thank all those that take the time to read my stories, I appreciate that I am not a polished author and sometimes there might be a bit of WTF when trying to get through them.
All the best to all.
Hey folks, last August I posted a story entitled Sophie and the Professor. That first story was well received but was written before I took a couple of creative writing courses and got the help of an editor. Hopefully you notice an improvement. Sophie is an acquaintance that I’ve written for and about. I’ll be posting seven of those stories starting tomorrow, one every other day. I hope you enjoy.
Sorry for the mix up with the chapter numbers for Chapters 5, 6 and 7. I am not sure what I did to screw it up. the text in each chapter is fine it was just the labelling.
I decided to post this before I head off to the hospital tomorrow.
First Date, a short story will start tomorrow, it's only 7 chapters and just over 10,500 words. I'll set it up to drop a chapter a day until complete.
Here's a summary:
When recently retired Canadian, James lands on the island of Palawan for a well-earned escape, he expects sun, quiet, and maybe a cocktail or two. What he doesn’t expect is Melena—a confident, sensual Filipina beauty who shares his lounger, his wine, and eventually, his deepest desires.
I hope you enjoy.
Hello folks, if you’ve taken the time to read Monique and John I give you my humble thanks.
I’m going into hospital next week for some minor surgery and internet access to the site is usually blocked, so I’ve decided to post the remaining 17 chapters on Friday May 30th. After I get out, I’ll be recuperating by the lake thinking about fishing but more than likely just enjoying the time away from the city. There may or may not be wifi up there this year, as there was talk of putting in cell towers in, last fall.
If you manage to make it to the end of the story, thanks and feel free to share your thoughts. My next story is with my editor for its second edit and I’ve just started outlining another story. As previously mentioned, I will only post once a story has been completed, so there is no worry about an inactive warning, if you find yourself enjoying my work.
For those of us in the Northern Hemisphere on the verge of summer, enjoy and to our Southern neighbors, bundle up and enjoy.
