Chapter 3 was posted this morning. Hope you like it. It was fun to write, which is usually a good sign. Two more chapters to come, I think.
The first two chapters of my latest, "Coaching the Devils" posted last night. This is the third soccer story for me. The first two ("Confessions of a Soccer Coach" and "Thunderstorm!") were written 15+ years ago, so I don't feel like I'm in a rut. As the old saw goes, write what you know, and after spending almost 20 years coaching, take that experience and blend it with my naughty fantasies and this is what you get.
I'm working on a story where I gave the two female characters the names of Sophie and Willow. Somewhere early on, I described Willow as having "raven-black hair." From that point on, I kept calling her Raven. I was almost at the end of the first draft before I noticed it. I wondered who the hell is Raven, and how did she get into my story? Sheesh!
The sixth, and last, chapter of "Sandy..." posted today. This one was like pulling teeth, and not loose ones. Whew! Now I can get back to other projects and start catching up on my reading.
The story of mine I dislike the most and am most embarrassed to have written is also my 8th most popular based on downloads. It has a terrible rating, second worst of all mine, yet there it sits in my top ten.
All I can figure is some combination of the title, the description, and the codes appeal to a certain demographic among SOL readers. Hey, I think I just answered my own question!
