One More Short Story In Billy Newt's Universe, Then Cbdt

Well, I don't want to let my readers down; even if the appeal was small and marginal, I will give them one more short story in that universe at the very least. I am not going to commit to a long term unless you guys want me to, since I do have a primary story being launched. For the upcoming launch of Cyber Bullying Defense Team, 8 chapters have finished editing with a Halloween special Kitt is working on the tail portion right now, but that part will not be released until December/January.

Musings From Me

The Next Projects...

So after a pretty disastrous September, October has started out really well! Launched our own company, with which we have three projects under our radar which I thought i'd blog about PROJECT ONE: The Hunchback of Notre Dame by Victor Hugo, July 2016. I'm casting for a new 50 minute version of the above novel with a multiroling cast. It's going to be great fun and a wonderful production. I'm in the directors chair for this one and it's partially devised, so it will be nice getting b

Welcome back to another Friday Prompt Me! Yes, amazing how quickly the week seems to pass. Already those of us in the Northern Hemisphere are seeing the cooler temperatures moving in, the leaves changing colors, and announcement of snow. Seems that autumn is flying by. As it does hopefully people are taking time to enjoy things and perhaps even taking a bit of time to write again. Just the weekly reminder - Prompt responses under 1,000 words must be posted as part of a collection. Considerin

Making of My Stories

Pre-Info Of Chapter 3

Hey Guys... I am back with some information relating to the Next Chapter of the Story. Until now we have seen Davy's misery and an investigation about Davy's disappearance. One was a sad thing and another one is an action thing... The next chapter is going to involve fully about a guy named Francis and something he has been holding for his entire life. I think you will guess what it is, but You have wait to know everything... And in this chapter some of the characters are going to introd

Favorite Songs

I’ve been thinking of writing a blog entry on a few of the songs I find interesting, so I think it’s time (now that I’m feeling somewhat manic/mostly depressed) to discuss these songs. (Research from Wikipedia) Let’s do them alphabetical (by artist) just to make it easy. First off is Alanis Morissette’s, “You Oughta Know.” It’s a rather troubling song about a failed relationship that seemingly went terribly wrong. Now, the jilted girl is asking her former lover if his new love will measu

Nostalgia And The Best Of Wishes

So, this is a song that makes my heart ache in that way that makes you nostalgic, and happy too. My happy blog post after my birthday. This year, there was no large celebration, but a gentle day with friends and family. Smiles, encouragement, and even wishes of love and happy birthday from friends and family I hadn’t talked to in so long. It was a nostalgic kind of birthday. So, I dedicate this song to all of them, for making me love them all the more, even when they’re far from me. (Some lyrics

Some Fun Facts About Billy Newt's 13Th Birthday

Well, looks like at least 190 views at the story so far with 4 responses. It's not a big reaction, but it's not a bad one either for a non-genre writer like me. Unless, you guys are dying for another fantasy story, I think this might just be a one time thing. I wanted to at least share some things about the story at least for fun facts: 1. I have read way too many stories about witches, (used to love Charmed too), I feel like there's really no difference in story elements of fantasy. I w

Alright, Been A While Since I Wrote A Story

Here is my Halloween fun story. https://www.gayauthors.org/story/w-l/billysnewt13thbirthday/1 As I said, I do not anticipate writing this into a major series, unless readers really desperately want me to write it out. I am really irreverent in this story to the Fantasy Genre, so if you guys like this be prepared for a different take on Fantasy from a more masculine perspective. As for Norse Mythology being used in this story, I freely admit it, I love the concept of old Norse Tales.

The Nature Of Success - A Discussion With Myself

Disclaimer: This will be depressing. Read at your own peril. How do I define success? This seems to be the question of the decade for me. I don't know if I've been successful in my life. My instinct is to say I haven't been, but maybe I am? If success is having financial security, then I definitely have not been successful yet. If success is reaching a position of power, then no again. A position of influence perhaps? Yes, I have some small amount of influence on the world, so in that I

The Last Two Months...

Its been Two months, 60 days actually, that I have gone through a phase that made me to learn a lot. A phase that has given me lessons to understand people, situations and mostly about fate. I know I have gone through some bad situations and incidents that made my life so... I don't even know what that felt. It is 12 August, I got a phone call saying my cousin is in hospitals and in serious condition. I went there after everybody visited her. Docs told us she is dealing with her life and dea

Found this feel good story about a male plus size model showing that beauty doesn't have to come in just one size! Target's Only Male Plus-Size Model Strikes A Bull's Eyes for Body Positivity Pretty cool story.

For a change I don't want to complain or talk about my life. I want to talk about my writing. Lately my muse has been active. Which is really nice. What this means for my readers. 1) I have a new Halloween story coming up shortly. Like some of those from my past, it will be a one shot, but hopefully it will be something people can enjoy. Instead of the usual stories about witches, zombies, vampires, or werewolves, I decided to go a little different. My tale is called Halloween - Lilith S

It involves a magical world of Warlocks, Vampires, and Werewolves Since Cyber Bullying Defense Team is in post production for the 1st half of the story with a publication date of 10/23/2015, I've got some time to write something short and fun.
