I've run the course with Details Matter. For a story originally conceived for a Halloween story contest, this one took a life of its own.

I quite enjoyed writing it. Sachiko is an interesting character.

Lets see what my muse comes up with next.

for me, at least, writing is not my day job. I don't know how others do it, but a story line will get stuck in my head and for a bit my muse will have me rolling out words.

that's great.

I don't start a story with an outline of how the thing will go. Plot shows up as the muse directs.

That's great, too.

Downside? The muse decides that's all she's doing with that story.

Such is the fate of Hurricane, Laura. As you might know, a lot of the story is wrested from our record-breaking hurricane last year. The area's still recovering. Since then we've had another hurricane, a record-setting cold spell, and two weeks ago, the most rainfall in recorded history. People who were just getting homes together after Hurricane Laura found their homes inundated when flash floods - what you get when you dump fifteen inches of rain in six hours - pushed water into homes.

But the story? She is done.

Others await.

Thanks for reading, and for all the comments.

I find it very satisfying that The Smart Girls universe was voted first place in TWO categories of the 2020 Clitorides Awards

Community - Moving On came in first in Long Erotic Story category and Haley's Bunch popped in as first in the Best Incest Story group.

To all of you who've read, commented and voted, my deepest thanks.

I'm alive. No major health issues. Dorable has been rather flighty lately.

There is a chapter of Details at the editor's, I'm working on a chapter of Benjamanda and cogitating on What Laura is doing.

In other words, I'm still writing.

To all of you who sent messages of 1) concern about my health, and 2)why the Hell I've not posted more chapters, thank you all. I need both of those.

Clitorides award nominations are open. I ended three stories last year, Community - Moving On, Haley's Bunch, and Smooth Move, and offer them for consideration.
