Writer Mick: Blog

Hi All

First a Happy Independence Day to my fellow Americans who still believe that we live in a wonderful country founded by amazing men.

Second, in my never ending effort to unscrew some of my unedited writing, I have just finished going through "I'll See You When I See You". I've corrected spelling and spacing errors AND fixed some of the continuity errors that some of my wonderful readers caught.

I am reposting all 10 chapters today and will begin working on some other stories over the summer. I also have a completed story that has 11-12 chapters in the hands of my editor and a few friends with better command of the language I insult each time I write. I have been going back and forth on putting it on Patreon first and then following her on SOL. No decisions made yet.

I am up to Chapter 45 of "The Strawberry Patch - Life on The Savannah" and have realized that I let some of the pissed off readers affect me too much. In an effort to fend of tragedy and cliff hangers, I'm afraid that I made the story a little too bland. So I went back and reread the book from chapter 1 and I'm making some changes. They will be posted with notices from me as I go.

Thank you again for your readership and for your comments.

Hi All

I finished rewriting another story. This time it was "Red Redy Redbush".

I found several spelling errors and awkward phrases. It should be better now.

Hi All

This morning I was reading the latest chapter of The Strawberry Patch Book 3, as I always do, because in the past I have been known to post an unedited version of a chapter instead of the clean one.

Anyway, for whatever reason, I was not happy with what I read. After doing that quick challenge story yesterday, something about this chapter didn't seem right, so I went in and made some changes that seemed to make the story flow a little better.

I hope my editor Askepot will forgive me for not passing it through him again. And I hope that you will enjoy reading the chapter more this time.

I know I did!

Happy Father's Day to all of us lucky enough to be Dad's.

Hi All

Eddie Davidson made a challenge in his last blog.

I was in a mood! So I answered the challenge and came up with this little piece. It cost me an afternoon of beer and deep dish pizza at Old Chicago!

I hope y'all enjoy it.

Hi All

I have received several responses to my last blog, both for and against it. I wrote three endings to the story and decided to cut it off at the choice and let the reader write the ending, either in their minds or online.

If you want to know the type of personality I have, please go to Jack Spratts "Jokes and Giggles Part 2" and read what I submitted and he posted as Chapter 290.

Thank you again for your readership and to those of you who cared to write. I really appreciate you.

Mick
