Writer Mick: Blog

Hi All

Well, I fixed another one of my stories. This time it was "I Know You Do". Several readers made similar comments about a few holes in the story. I fixed them and have sent the four edited chapters to Laz to post.

They should go in either tonight or in the morning. I've been taking my time off work to read and fix past stories. In some cases I was fixing my poor writing or spelling or editing/reading.

As we all come out of this trying past six weeks, I wish you all luck. I'm not a big believer in the need to shut down the country, but I am a big believer in washing hands and not sneezing in someones face! Just be civil, polite and clean and everything should work out.

God Bless

Hi All

I just finished the 5th and last chapter of "Swapped Unswapped".

I'm so glad that my readers got after me to keep it going for one more chapter.

I'm very please with the way it turned out.

Thank you, all of you, for reading my work and sending me comments and emails.

I hope all of you remain safe as we unwind out of this crazy quarrentine and you remain healthy and happier than you were when it started.

Hi All

I posted the final chapter of "Swapped Unswapped" and then the first comment after posting was "Do a sequel" and the first email was "It doesn't seem like the story is over".

This morning, I read the entire story and these folks were correct. So I've asked Laz to list the story as "to be continued" and as of right now, I am writing another chapter, because they were right. The story needed more.

As soon as the last chapter is posted, I'll make the big announcement and celebrate with a glass of wine and a PB&J.

Hi All

The voting and scoring for "Swapped Unswapped" is now open.

Let me have it!

Hi All

A few things. First, I'm healthy. Second I'm off work. Third, I'm lucky and still being paid my salary. Other than a couple of hour long Zoom meeting each day, I find myself with a ton of time to write.

I could have gone on and gotten deep into The Strawberry Patch Four or, I could wrap up some of these random partial stories I had sitting around. I chose the later. So there will be several short pieces coming out over the next couple of weeks.

They tell me that I could be called back as soon as May 4th. Here's hoping.

I've posted "The Saturday Running Man Killer" and it should go out on Monday morning. The kicked here is that I had several ending for the story. So rather than choose one, I plan to post several Chapter 2's (2A, 2B, 2C, etc). I would also invite any of you bored authors, OR even some of you who are really new to jump in and finish the story the way YOU see it ending.

Stay safe, stay healthy!

Mick
