Writer Mick: Blog

Hi All!

I've just posted a little story that will be placed in the "Tales From The Shed" universe.

The story stands a lone, but open ended. I invite anyone who would like to take a shot at extending the story to contact me for permission to do so.

My muse might have made it back from vacation. Suddenly I have written the main outlines to six stories, so the future looks interesting.

Hi All

Out of the blue a new friend began sending me corrections and ideas to make my very first story better. I just posted the update of "Vicki, Mick and Amy".

The one thing I chose not to change was the writing style. I still think it has way too many short sentences, but that was my initial style and I thought that it was better to keep it. Sort of a milestone to where it all began.

Have a great day!

Hi All!

Something occurred to me after I received an email from a fellow author. He said that he was a fan and it occurred to me that I had not read his stuff.

I pulled up his highest and lowest rated stories and enjoyed them both. So! If you are an author that has been reading my efforts, I would love to know whop you are, so I can reciprocate.

So far I have read the work of two authors and I'd like to feel that I had a relationship with Xalir after being selected to finish his last story.

Please reply in an email, if you'd care to reply.

Thanks in advance

Mick

Hi All

When I got the edited chapter back from Askepot we both thought that the start of the chapter was awkward.

I posted the edited chapter and then this morning I really stopped to read through the thing slowly and go through it a sentence at a time.

I think I got it fixed. So if you read the chapter before noon on Sunday you read the awkward chapter. I strongly suggest that you go back a reread the chapter. I think it will make more sense.

And to those you you that hat dangling ending, I'm sorry if the end of this chapter triggered you.

Not!

Hi All

Well good things have happened.

The dreaded RexfordDam has offered to edit "I'll Fall In Love Again?" and I thankfully said yes. He went over it and sent me his edits, I read his and compared it to mine and now it is done.

I hope all of you who commented will re-read the story and let me know if it now is at a level, as many said, "Not my best work" and "It has fallen short of your usual level of writing".

RexfordDam has agreed to edit my other work as it comes along. Askepot is still doing The Strawberry Patch. Askepot has helped me raise the level of SP to the point that it is scoring over an 8 and I hope that my other works that are sitting at the high 5's and the middle to upper 6's will improve.

I have a story in the wings that I was going to use as my breakout on Patreon, but I've decided to keep writing for free. With these two outstanding folks editing for me, I hope that everyone enjoys my work. Keep in mind that sometimes, I just write weird shot!
