Hello readers,
Well, The Lifeguard is finally done. How did everyone like this serial revival? I hope the ending wasn't too rushed and felt slightly appropriate to get Mark to grow up. I also had the thought of him just going on the run but I liked this way better. Are there any other stories of mine that you'd like to see continuations of? I had a request for more Ashley's Awakening today, which I would like to do. I do want to spread these out though so it doesn't come off as only rehashing old ideas, I'm not Hollywood.
This week has been pretty bad for writing to be honest. Luckily (I guess), it's just the flu and not the weird malaise that hit through November and December. It has thrown off my writing schedule though so I'm not sure how things will shake out. I was expecting to start the new narrative story this week, but I haven't touched it yet. Hell, I haven't been able to finish the final chapter in this batch of Sister's Servant (chapter 11). I'm less worried about that one though; I've got a few pages on it and I know where it's going. Those dates won't change but I'm not sure about after that. I'll figure something out and see what my time-line is like once I feel better.
Enough about all that, what's coming out this week you ask? Well, on the 19th, the next chapter of A Girl's Guide to Cookie Dough will release. In this chapter, it is finally time for Trixie to take Blake in her backdoor. Her sister is just there for moral support but things can change in the heat of the moment. Still working towards the end of this serial and I hope to have it done in either one or two more chapters.
For the weekend, we have a new story about to start. This one is called Sheltered from the Storm. It is the tale of Pete Hackett, who is traveling to his isolated cottage when a storm rolls in. He spots a girl, Allison, on the side of the road and offers her a place to stay to wait out the storm. This is a four chapter story and I've tried to work on the development of Pete as a character. Feel free to let me know if I'm getting closer with this stuff. I still think I need a lot of work to get better but constructive feedback always helps. I know the 'Hitchhiker' story is pretty trite but it did help me get back into a groove. Mainly, I hope you enjoy it and maybe get off if that's what you're trying to do.
Well, that's it for this week. I'm going to go back to bed now and rest up.
Thanks for reading,
