ghostwritten: Blog

Hello readers,

It’s Blog-tastic! Welcome back to another week of my ramblings. As always, hello to my human readers and our A.I. overlords who continue to read my blog at an impressive rate. So. what’s been going on?

This week saw the continuation of the Science Club series, with the beginning chapter of Episode 3 – The Room Drama. Views are lower than I’d like for the continuing series, but it has scored well among those of you that have started it. Thank you to all the people who score or comment on my stories, by the way. I will continue to ask for feedback on this series as it is a weird one to gather information on. I do enjoy this series of stories, since it is a challenge to balance the different characters and storylines. Some characters will feature more prominently in some episodes rather than others, then the next episode might focus heavily focus on someone else.

There are at least three more 5-chapter episodes planned for the series, and I hope interest remains strong enough to continue through those. There will be a break after Episode 3 concludes, so I can work on something else, but I do plan to write Episode 4 as soon as I can.

Beyond that, we just had a new chapter of Jane Finds Herself. This story has been such a wild ride, from barely scraping by in its first few chapters, to now getting very solid numbers each week. I hope that trend continues.

Jane continued to develop this week without Riley or Curtis’s direct involvement. I hope readers are enjoying the growth of Jane as a character unto herself. That’s what this whole block of chapters is about; Jane taking her experience and new appetites forward before Riley’s visit. As with Science Club, feedback is always appreciated for this story as well, so feel free to reach out to me with your thoughts.

Next week, we have more of both stories. In The Room Drama, chapter 2, the students and Linda continue to dig into the mystery of the abandoned Drama Room, while Brittany and Warren take a new step in their relationship.

In Jane Finds Herself, Jane has a date with Ross at his apartment as she learns more about her new potential boyfriend. Then a trip upstairs to see Brad leads to a tricky situation and a future problem.

That’s it for this week. Stories are still rolling out on both days and I’m typing away on more stuff in the meantime. I don’t really know when I’ll have something to show for it, but I hope to have enough done so that I can return to Family Reunion and Science Club with only a minimal interruption on your end.

Thank you for your time and continued support and interest,

Hello readers,

Another week, another blog. Let’s go.

At the end of Family Reunion, I asked if readers wanted me to continue the journey of Logan and Lindsay after the events of the story. Well, I have to say I was blown away by the response. I don’t think I’ve ever had so many comments or messages asking me to continue a story like that before. So, due to clear reader demand, I will continue their story as when they meet back up at Adams College in the fall.

The one thing though, I don’t quite know when that will be. As I’ll get into more detail below, the next Episode of Science Club starts this Wednesday and will run for 5 weeks, as usual. Following that though, I’m looking to take a break on the 2-a-week story postings temporarily. This isn’t to give myself a break or anything, haha, far from it. I want to start work on a new story for the ‘ghostwritten after dark’ account, that as laid dormant for most of the year. I had planned to sunset it, but after the reception of Trapped at a Sex Party, I think I need to keep it for content that doesn’t have a place here on the main one.

I’m not going to go into detail on what the new story will be, at this time or when you might start seeing it, but the hope is to use the downtime to write a number of chapters in advance, queue them up, and then run them along side the usual Wednesday and Saturday postings… maybe Mondays. I’ve wanted to have a Monday story series for a while now. But yeah, unfortunately that means a slowdown of some content in November. Hopefully, it’ll be worth it for those that seek darker content.

For this week, as I said above, Episode 3 of Science Club starts this Wednesday. It is titled The Room Drama and focuses on the mystery of the sealed Drama classroom and the issues of some of the new students who have found it. I hope people enjoy it, I’m trying to add some mystery and intrigue to stories now to make them more interesting. Please let me know your thoughts on it as it progresses.

Also for Saturday is more Jane Finds Herself. As a note, after the 12th chapter posted, this has become my longest story ever in terms of word count, so yay! It isn’t anywhere near done though, as there’s plenty more story to tell. The new chapter continues Jane’s new relationships as she deals with balancing her new life and activities against her growing desires. How far can she go and what happens if she pushes too hard, will something or someone push back?

That’s it for this week. One thing I forgot to mention last week was that I crossed 500 followers on SOL. In the grand scheme of things, it is just a number, but I like to think there are 500 people who might enjoy the weird, silly, and sexy stories I write. Thank you to every single one of you for helping me to reach that goal.

Hello readers,

Sorry I haven't posted a blog in a while, been busy with various other things. Let's recap since my last posting.

Trapped at a Sex Party finished; not a fan favorite it seems but it was worth a shot to try something new. It probably won't be my last attempt at a mystery-type story but I've learned lessons from it. It did have a few fan though and I'd like to thank those of you that read it, and I appreciate the kind words of support I got in comments and messages. If I did have a question for everyone, should this story stay here on the main account, or should it be moved to the 'ghostwritten after dark' account? That account has been dormant for months, originally planned to be sunset, but plans are in motion to revive it with something new.

Family Reunion is still on-going, with the final chapter posting this upcoming Wednesday. It hasn't scored the best but views have climbed on it, which is nice. It was planned as a short, 3-part story but there is room for more if readers have an appetite to continue. I'll put a note at the end of the story asking for feedback and if readers would like more. Feel free to share your thoughts with me in the comments or direct message.

Jane Finds Herself has returned from hiatus. Chapter 11's first day has been quite good as we start a new journey with Jane as she travels around her city. I am curious to see how people react to this change in the story, not having Curtis or Riley directly involved. Neither has disappeared from this world though, we're just getting to know Jane's world through her eyes. This will be a longer batch of chapters than the usual 5 week rotation I usually produce. Due to reasons... one chapter might have gone on longer than planned and had to be split apart into three pieces, so we're looking at 7 chapters in this batch. I hope you are excited to continue Jane's journey.

What am I currently working on? I'm working on the final chapter of Episode 3, of the Science Club series, The Room Drama. I still don't know what people's thoughts are on this continuing series of stories, it's always very quiet. It gets reasonable views, so that's good, I just don't know if people are actually enjoying it though. I guess I'll see what happens with this next entry. There are still several more Episodes planned if readership continues, but I might take a break after Episode 3 to try something else. I've got several story ideas that I'd like to work on and I think people might like?

That's pretty much it for this week. Nothing too exciting but I just like keeping readers (and our AI overlords) informed.
Thanks for reading, commenting, and messaging me. I always enjoy hearing from people.

Hello readers,

Late to the party this blog, sorry about that. Got caught up in a writing fury.

So yeah, hello to all you readers and the AI bots that seem to sweep these things regularly right now. There’s no way 600 people read that week’s blog; my thoughts and opinions are not that important or worthwhile for that to be a real number.

This week we are back to two stories, with the first on Wednesday being Family Reunion. During the final frat party of the year, Logan is intrigued by a mysterious girl, but she disappears the next morning leaving only a phone number. Forced to a family reunion during his summer holiday, guess who he runs into?

I know, the premise isn’t the most novel or creative thing out there, but I hope it is interesting enough for people looking for something fun. It’s a 3-chapter story, not particularly long, but on the off-chance people want more, there’s room for expansion in the future.

After that on Saturday is the final chapter of Trapped at a Sex Party, which I’m sure most of you are thankful for. This clearly wasn’t people’s cup of tea, but I’d like to try this style of story out again in the future. Anyway, you may all rejoice, for it will be done. Jane Finds Herself will return on September 20th.

That’s pretty much it. No rants about the forums or crazy stories. I spent the week furiously typing chapters of Jane Finds Herself, which sort of got bigger than it was supposed to (more details on that in the future).

Thanks for reading, I now have to write a bunch of chapters of Science Club this week. Later.

Hello readers,

Another week and another blog, let’s go.

This has been a strange week for me, where I didn’t get as much writing done as I would have liked. Some of that came from personal timing and plans, but another factor came from an unlikely place, the forums here on SOL.

Normally I’m just a lurker, reading little updates and snippets of information on what people like and don’t like, or general sentiments about the site. It can be helpful for ideas and learning from mistakes of others, but typically I don’t participate. One thread though got my attention; it was about the shear amount of ‘dreck’ posting on the site and the prevalence of extreme sex stories. It devolved, as forums generally do, into other topics including there being too many sex stories on the site deleting low-scoring stories.

I won’t bore you too much with the details, check out the thread for yourself if you’re interested. But it did come about that this site wasn’t planned for sex stories, but just a site that allows sex in stories. Laz, the site administrator, confirmed this but noted that sex stories drive traffic, so he allows it, but it isn’t something he particularly enjoys hosting (probably fair due to the issues he’s had this year).

Anyway, I got pretty upset hearing this, as a purveyor of primarily sexually explicit content. I am not a good writer, I know this, so I can’t exactly transition to a ‘no sex’ author (read Teacher’s Pet or the Winter’s Bite stories for proof in low sex stories). I nearly posted a blog about rethinking my presence here on SOL. It wasn’t until late one night that I thought, I follow the rules, why shouldn’t I be able to post here? Heck, most of my content is pretty safe for most sites really (beyond some students being in a High School setting). But yeah, I nearly clocked out since it seemed that my type of writing isn’t exactly wanted around here. I calmed down eventually and got back to work, but I lost a few days there, which sucks.

I am working on the next Episode in the Science Club series, which is going well. Now that Episode 2 – Aftermath is done, what are people’s thoughts on it? It’s been pretty quiet for feedback on this series and would love to know if people are liking it still or if there are things that could be improved.

Next week, there won’t be anything posted on Wednesday unfortunately. This was due to a story failing and then a mad scramble to write something new. That new short story will start the following week and will last for three weeks. It wraps up well enough, but there is room for more if demand is there, but I’ll talk more about that next week.

Saturday, of course (or unfortunately depending on your point of view), has another chapter of Trapped at a Sex Party. This one clearly hasn’t hit well for people, but there’s only a few more weeks to finish before we return to Jane Finds Herself, so come back for that please?

That’s about it, sorry for whining. It shouldn’t always be like that. Enjoy your long weekend if you have it and I’ll write you next week. As always, thanks for reading.
