Writer Mick: Blog

Hi All

For very personal reasons, the time period between Dec 23 and Jan 1 is the single worst period of the year for me.

Between the anger and depression the week is a struggle and nothing can be done about it. I've tried.

So I offer for you readership "My Love Pays Off" a little ditty and Mike, Kat, Diane and a cast of hundreds, maybe thousands.

I'm looking to finish "On Guard" over the weekend and then get back t work on the O'Dell saga and The Strawberry Patch finish.

Happy New Year to us all

Mick

Hi All

I was working on the last few chapters of "On Guard" when my muse took off running in a different direction.

That is writer speak for my ADHD kicked in. Suddenly I was looking over my list of things I wanted to rewrite/edit/post and At the top of the list was the first in the "I Was Sitting" series.

So I opened the story and worked on it until the wee hours and have sent it in to be posted. It should go up with the latest chapter of "On Guard" but this is the only notice of the much cleaner story being posted.

Next,, I am dealing with Amazon because I've been made aware that a woman has been posting several of my stories on Amazon under her name. The stories all have a different name but except for different names for all characters, the stories are word for word exactly the same.

The woman's name is Lori Donny. If any of you have purchased her stuff leave reviews that her work is stolen. I've found 4 stories so far. I'll continue my search once I calm down again.

I write for fun and for free. This crap really pisses me off.

Later

Hi All

My dear friend Professor C pointed out to me that one f my main characters in "On Guard" is the same as the main character in Michael Loucks A Well Lived Life Series.

So I had to go back and change it because I try really hard to not have any confusion that one of my stories might be a cross over from someone elses work.

So, I've reposted the Prologue and Chapters 1-3 with the characters name changed. I also went through all the other chapters and changed the name as well.

Please download those chapters again to avoid any confusion in future chapters.

Sorry

Hi All

I just got new glasses! I put them on at the doctors office and everything was fuzzy around the edges. She told me to wear them for a few days and see if my vision adjusted tot he new lenses.

As of right now, my vision sucks. Nothing is sharp and judging from my friend Coullperts' emails with edits of Chapter 3 of "On Guard", my typing has taken a severe hit.

Hang in this nonsense should only last for a few weeks.

Hi All

Apparently when I described the MC's car in chapter 1 of On Guard I described it as a 3.1 cubic inch motor. Obviously it should be 3.1 Liter motor.

Now I'm thinking of leaving it, just to piss people off!

No can't do that. I'll get the fix out in the AM.

Thanks to all of those who wrote. I chose to answer you all here because I haven't got the finger strength to type all the responses!
