Shout-out to an eagle-eyed reader. Somehow, a chunk of Chapter 32 got appended to yesterday's upload to SOL. I've submitted the corrected chapter. For those of you kind enough to purchase it on Bookapy, not to worry, that version had no such defect.

All nice and polished after spring cleaning, they’re clanking along. One more novel’s technical editing is complete! Next week I begin the second edits of an older rough draft that I’ve been reading. Fun story and clunky prose, but it should be entertaining to hammer into better shape.
Despite the almost desperate nudging by the muses, April is still looking to be nothing but “The Immortal.” At this point, the forty-odd chapters of the second compendium require a mix of second and third edits, with the plan calling for audio review and final editing sometime in June. Stay tuned.
One more heartfelt thanks to those of you supporting my efforts. Nope, I still haven’t tired of saying this every week. You folks help keep me writing.
Hugs.

Daffodils are here!
And let’s see, “The Yards” are still clanking along. While the latest chapter of “Bad Mommy” is up today on SOL for free, the complete work is available on Bookapy for those who’d prefer to read ahead and support my efforts as well as the site.
After a quick dodge, the muses dashed past me, foaming with their latest crazed ideas, and editing is continuing apace. Amid working on my own projects, I’m staying true to my word and assisting four other writers with a variety of edits, from proofreading to story structure analysis. Like I said earlier this month, a rising tide….
For those of you supporting my efforts and those of the others, bravo, and huge hugs. Remember, if nothing else, dear silent readers, please rate and review.

…means editing. And lots of it. And what, pray tell, have I been working on? First, updating drafts for three novels heading your way later this year and next. Also a raft of shorter story updates going elsewhere. And finally assisting some newer writers. Not gonna bore you with all the twists and turns. That’s the kind of detail I post for the loveable die-hards on my Discord server, “The Yards” along with the most current production schedule.
Oh, and I’m slotting further work on the next “The Immortal” compendium for April. Fingers crossed; it’ll be complete by the time I begin posting its first chapters here in August.
Alright, short and sweet this week.
And as always, thanks and big hugs to those of you sharing a kind word or hanging out with me on Discord as I skribble da wirdz.

…lifts all boats. After last week’s post on supporting me and your other favorite writers through purchasing works or providing feedback, I wanted to add another thought:
Writers helping other writers.
Some of us are quite active, reaching out to newer wird-skribblers to offer assistance. If they accept, wonderful. If not, we’ve done our part, and they at least realize there are folks around who can help.
So, new carvers of runes, if you’re about to launch your first story and nobody but you has seen it, you may want to ping some of the fine folks offering their help right here. There’s an “Editors/Reviewers Hangout” forum.
For that matter, many of the best authors are not afraid of asking for fresh eyes. Be kind to each other. It’s a much nicer community than at other puddles scattered around the Interwebz.
Anyway, that’s my food for thought this week.
The Yards have swapped over to editing mode for March. But I’ll leave such sausage-making details for my Discord channel.
Hugs
Ivey.
