G Younger: Blog

I had an old PC that crashed and had some of my early stories on it. I finally was able to save them. To be honest, I was a little scared of their quality, so I sent them to my editors to read. I was told one or two might be salvageable.

As a side note ... I apologize for my earlier writing. For many years all I wrote were business reports, which tend to be formal in nature. I didn't know what a contraction was ;-)

Thankfully, Bud Ugly is a glutton for punishment and cleaned up my story - The Device.

It's a story about a geek who lusts after another geek and then there are cheerleaders (that is mandatory for any story IMHO). Oh ... and there is a device.

If that description doesn't get you excited(more likely confused) ... LOL.

Five chapters. One posted daily starting on Thursday.

My editors and I spent way too much time on this.

Is it: Bow Chicka Bow Wow -or- Bow Chicka Wow Wow?

Here is the YouTube video the song comes from in the story.

Enjoy.

Because this week is Halloween I've added an easter egg in my story ...

Also, for my advance readers, you may want to read this chapter on SOL because there are changes from the original storyline.

Easter Egg
I added a new character and as a nod to my favorite horror movie franchise named him Jason Voorhees from the Friday the 13th series. I needed a scary lawyer and Jason used to scare the crap out of me ;-)

ARC - SPOILER ALERT -
In the original version, David hires Cal Bell, Pam's father, to be his lawyer. Several readers were shocked that he would even consider using him after what he did to David Junior Year. When my editors agreed, I took everyone's advice. The SOL version has David firing Cal and hiring a new lawyer.

Thanks for reading.

I'm starting to learn writers lingo - ARC stands for Advanced Readers Copy. I'm sure your all happy for me. ;-)

I've received a lot of emails wanting to know when Part III will be ready. I wish I knew. What's the saying about best-laid plans? My muse decided she didn't like my outline for the end of the book and has taken me off into a new direction. The original goal was to have it done by the end of November. Now I think it will be after the first of the year.

The good news is that my muse is right and the book is better because of her suggestions. I've learned to listen. That happens when you get older. You learn women are ALWAYS right. The sooner you learn that the better your life will be. Either that or we give up. Single guys ... ignore this advice. You still need to be trained. ;-)

Another Stupid Boy Story has just been put in the cue. It gave me a moment to reflect. I want to thank SOL and Laz for giving me a place to practice my craft. Writing had always been a pipe dream for me.

I also want to thank all the readers who have suffered through my earlier stuff. I was told that I absolutely had to get an editor ... thank goodness I listened. My current team of X of Dallas, Bud Ugly, Zom, and TheMikeBomb are just the latest of a long line of people that have made my stuff readable. I personally think they do a great job.

Enjoy! I look forward to hearing from you and what you think of the new story.
