OK, more ending Poppy story one avoidance.

Educating Amber started as a little germ of an idea and I thought I could tell her story in one of my 12 hour spurts of action, but she had so much more to tell us.

She ended up taking over my life for a month in a 60,000 word novella.

Trigger warning: There is discussion of familial child abuse and CP in this story, but no graphic detail.

I recently found a half written Amy story in my One Drive, so over the weekend I re-read all 12 Amy stories - yeah, I know, I should be writing part 50 of Poppy, but I'm finding all sorts of distractions to stop me finishing the story because I don't want it to end.
Anyway, I always liked the Amy stories. They're not great writing, but she's an excellent character.
I didn't have a big audience back when I posted these stories 9 years ago, so I don't know how many of you have read them, I know very few people sent me messages picking holes in my grammar, so I had to learn the hard way (also, at least one character's surname changed along the way).

Anyway, I really enjoyed reading Amy's story, so I've added it to my jobs list to fix them all, and when I'm done I'll take the old versions down and repost the new ones. I might do them one at a time, I might do them in a big lump. Either way, the old and the new will not exist at the same time as you can't have two stories with the same name.
No time frame for this, because my jobs list is growing all the time...

The formatting has got screwed up when uploading, I've reposted it just now.

I wrote it in word online while I was out earlier, I think the last time I did that the formatting went awry, so I'll stick to using the proper Word app from now on...

New story posted, a little vignette conceived, written and posted in 4 hours, so as always with these little stories, be gentle with your messages about typos :)

I'll start on Poppy part 50 in a couple of days...

Sorry for the delay with this, I was hoping to post it a few days ago, but once more Poppy surprised me, wanting to me tell more of her story...
