Writer Mick: Blog

Hi All

Final voting for Clitorides Awards has begun. So this is where, I have discovered, I am supposed to shamelessly plug myself for your votes.

Please vote for my work. And for the others who have worked hard to entertain you this year. I know I've voted for Michael Loucks and Oyster50 for Author of the Year. You should too since you can't vote for me in that category.

Seriously, thank you for a wonderful year. I know some of my stuff was simple and some even I'm proud of.

So vote for me.

Because.

Really!

Mick

Hi All

It's time for another chapter, #15 I believe, of On Guard. Someone left a comment about a switch from first to third person in a paragraph in Chapter 14. I hope they will contact me with specifics so I can fix it. I surely can't find it.

Chapter 15 takes us through graduation and the rather tame party afterwards. We find out more stuff.

Also, I guess I am supposed to be lobbying for votes in the Clitorides. OK, VOTE FOR MY STORIES!

How's that.

I was going spend a part of the day digging out from the ice storm but tomorrow it's supposed to be in the 60's!

I love Oklahoma!

Hi All

I just took a look at the Clitorides voting and got a surprise! WOW!

The next chapter of "On Guard" pops on Sunday AM. It's amazing that so many of the things people have been worried about and making suggestions about, are already handled in the story.

It's all done.

All that's left is you guys sharp eyes catching the errors that the writing faeries slip in after the editors and proofreaders declare everything to be perfect!

Thanks for the support in Clitorides and for reading and for caring enough to write notes.

Mick

Hi All

Now that the world is again spinning in the correct direction and our two-day ice and snow storm are over, Chapter 13 of "On Guard" will post on Sunday morning.

Our young couple and their parents and friends keep moving forward. The bad guys don't go away. But the good news keeps coming!

I hope you enjoy the ride.

Mick

Hi All

Some additional comments by you readers caused me to fix a few points in chapters 10 & 11. These things made the story factually correct.

The fact that readers feel free to let me know how to make the stories better without the "You Suck!" part is wonderful.

Thank you all for reading and thank you for comments.

I also wanted to thank a reader, Murphygirl1, for her readership. Way, way back in the dark ages of January 1, 2017 when I posted the first chapter of my first story "Mick and Keri", Murphygirl1 was my first commenter. Her notes, while short and to the point, have been a constant of positive support.

Thank you Murphygirl1.

And thank you readers. Moving forward I hope to mess up less and write more better (that was for my dear grammar friends)
