What began as a "Short Story" about a woman volunteering to help her daughter in a new NIS Program blossomed to 68 chapters. I've just finished writing them all, and now comes editing.
I just posted chapter 9 but I made a few edits if you have already read it. I added one new illustration. I make these with AI, so this is the only place they are available. I trained persistent characters so that I could produce repeatable pictures and consistent results.
I could really write it endlessly because there is no real end for the characters, just a continuation. I had a few arcs in the story that I felt tied together well and, 68 was a good place to end it.
I guess I could have shot for an even 69. There is more in store for Brittany Garner down the line in her life.
I turned on Comments on the story for the first time in years. They were always full of vitriol and nasty grams from non-contributors to the site who want to crap on stories. Someone proved to me today that it's still going on. I feel bad that comments are on by default and people still do that.
I love constructive comments, so if you have any feel free to drop some author feedback.
I am also finishing up on Call Me Misty 2. The next chapter should be up tomorrow at the latest.
So now what? I have some older projects I need to complete, and perhaps reset on. I might start something new and epic.
