What Happened During November?

*sips tea for throat* What happened during November? Well. I wrote a lot.  Okay so let's break it down. I was keeping pretty good on keeping on track with the base amount of words. I did a lot of small things to get started and I continued a few older things that I've been wanting to play with.  A list: A Santa Needs a Mate story - 31 chapters in length. I'll post it when I'm done with it.  Obscurity: A Morally Grey Harry Potter story. I need to reread the first 20 chapters t

Updates and NaNoWriMo 2019

What to say.  What...to...say. First of all, it's the 7th. I'm tired. So very tired. I've been either in a lot of pain (knees were grapefruit sized they were so swollen) and I've been doing Nano! So how about I break it down? Week 1 of National Novel Writing Month: Week 1 has been interesting to say the least. On the 3ed, our friend's van died. She had to get a jump to start it up and we couldn't let it shut off (which made getting around a bit interesting), but I got so

A Tiny (Yeah...) Update

So...a quick update while I take a break from editing and creating this Hellsing Ultimate Word Crawl... If you've noticed, on your end, The Roads That We Explore is sitting at chapter 4. Why? Well....Mostly because I'm holding onto the rest while I finish off their edits. I'm setting them up to post from October 25th at 3PM to October 31st at 3PM. I just set up story 7 and will be editing story 8, 9, 10 and 11 in the coming days.  Next story to be worried about will be my holiday stori

How I Write Now

I was going to do a long thing about how I have changed my writing process in the 7 years that I was gone from the website. I even had that post started and named, but then I decided to change it up.  I'm still going to talk about my writing process but now I'm going to just do it in a concise and point by point way. At least I hope it turns out concise.  Getting that idea This is where the whole thing starts. Before this was the only step before I started writing on the

Story Updates

I decided to go into a deeper look as to what I'm doing for the next little while and what each story comes from and when it should be on the schedule. For the rest of August: 1) I am going to post my Drabble a Day (Prompt Me, Prompt Me Week 1 will come out sometime tomorrow. Week 2 shall come out on the 2nd of September. Thus I need to edit and post it up in the next few days to get that pre-scheduled. Each week will be scheduled for a Monday so I don't have to worry about it. 2)

I Think I'm Insane

Okay, so. I mentioned this in the CoTT 2 forum but I am doing a 365 Day Prompt a Day thing.  How does it work and why do I do this to myself? I've actually done this before. I did it for fanfiction and did 365 short pieces for various fandoms. This time I'm just doing this with my original writing. I will be posting it. Not right now. Probably starting next month I will post the week worth of works. I'll get into details on it.  As for how it works?  Well, I have lists. And I

What to Expect from Me and My Stories

What does one do when she is unable to sleep because Insomnia and Midnight Zoomies via ESA cats?  Why come on this lovely site and update you guys as to what is going to go down with my stories and what you can expect in the future! That's what.  A little history: I lost everything that I was writing, editing and posting at the time (mostly fanfiction but also every single original WIP that I had) about 4 years ago. My flashdrive reformatted. Twice. I was lucky in the way that I was ab

Where Have I Been?

Seven. Years.  Has it really been that long? Yes, yes it has. It has been that long. When I last popped up, I was 28 years. It has been an insane, intense 7 years.  My mother started having physical issues in 2002. Mid-2003, she found out what she was having issues with and we started to work on getting her disability. 2003, she had surgery 3 different times, the second time rather minor and just to make sure things were fine with the first surgery.  In the last seven years, life

Why hello there

What have I been up to?   Let me list it off. Drabble A Day: I started a fanfiction Drabble a Day on my birthday, March 26. I'm into Week 3 now and on drabble 17, which I'll write tomorrow. I nearly have enough pairings to last me the year. National Novel Writing Month: I won 2011 NaNoWriMo, again. I wrote a fanfiction called 'Like a Bullet' and it is a fanfiction since all of my original ideas at the time were in production. I'm currently finishing off typing it and editing chapter 9

Hello my fellow people...

So, I haven't really been active here right? Yeah, I've been...ehh lately. I think I remember telling you all about the gallbladder surgery around June, July 2011.   I've healed from that, no problems. But I've been exceedingly busy with other things. I have finished writing, editing and posting Crimson Shadows which is a kind of sequel to A Butterfly's Life series, which includes A Butterfly's Dream. I am working on editing chapter 5 of A Butterfly's Dream. I'm also adding more informa

NaNoWriMo 2011

Are you doing it? Huh? Huh? Huh?   Isn't that so annoying? Yeah? I thought so.   Anyways, quick note on me: I'm good. Slightly sick but good all things considered. I don't have any cable because the cable company can't get off their fat arses and fix it, which I'm okay with at the moment. I'm somewhere with fast net. I'm good.   As for me, I'm doing fanfiction this year. A story that has been biting my own arse to get me to write it. Yeah. It's called Like a Bullet, is a Bleach AU, comes

Update on Back

I spent yesterday in the hospital. Again. I went in about 10:30, got out about 2. Not to bad.   But, the nurse who was assigned to me...couldn't feed the damn pain killer into me without bursting my vein. Pretty much, shoved the IV from where it was in my vein to sitting on the muscle...after poking another hole into it.   So I have a nice big bruise and I'm still sore like you wouldn't believe. Me and my vicodin are once more having an affair.   Tomorrow, nice bright and early, I get to

So, remember all that back pain?

Yeah, the back pain that takes me out every so often more and more lately?Well, I finally found out what is causing it! Let me give you some history first, since I don't think I've ever gone over that here.   June/July 2010: My back starts to SCREAM at me. Ice pack, heating pad and some major pain killers don't work. At all. Call the ambulance, go to the nice ER and sit in a chair for somewhere near 7 hours and get a nice pain pill.   August 2010: Once more, my back is screaming at me and I

So, can I cry now?

Seriously, can I?   Okay, I bet you're all wondering why I'm not really active. I have my reasons. The post is a repost from my blog on Authors Haunt, and is kinda late coming here since I am in some SERIOUS amounts of pain and I'm waiting for the nice pain killers to kick in.     I'm happy that my stories are so loved but it's dampened by the fact that I'm dealing with some major physical problems, as described below, along with other physical aliments that I deal with daily, i.e. carpel

Oh, look...they appeared

So, yeah, disappeared. I went through a week of utter pain and misery, went through a week of not wanting to look at anything outside of a damn story, and then a few weeks there where I was cranking out some mini stories.   ...I come back here during break in my typing class and my stories are there...   I'm going back to editing a Butterfly's Dream once I get this list up.   A Butterfly's Dream Being reedited, but I have something like 16 chapters total written. >>   Conversation

Oh for the love all that is holy!

Okay, so I'm sure I've lost a lot of readers on here especially since I'm not really active here. I can't help that because I'm busy with life and doing things.   I'm sorry about that.   Anyways, if you watch A Butterfly's Dream, I'm sure you've seen my newest post on it's forum. I'm really sorry about this but I can't write the damn thing in present tense and I would end up rewriting it into past tense with the other two stories that are connected to it anyways.   I'm so glad that I finis

Yes! I'm alive!

By all that is twitchy, I am alive, if not annoyed beyond all belief. Why? Let me list off the ways the universe has pissed in my cheerio bowl. Mind you, I don't want sympathy. I want smut. Or a really good, and I mean really good, gonna suck me in and let my mind run wild with it, story that the chapters are under 5,000 words. Any longer and I get bored.   Anyways, on to what has been happening.   1) January sucks. Rent is going up, I'm sick half the time.   2) I lost my friend and fellow

Tired now...

I...am unbelievably exhausted. Why am I so exhausted?   I have been working non stop on my damn NaNoWriMo thing (which I finished with 50,200 something words. Exact amounts can be found at my account, Candy_Lips).   I...have also been sick, lost my screen back in October and have been selling literary commissions. If you're interested in hearing my sale prices, PM me. Please. I could use the money to get people off my back out cash I don't have.   Anyways....   I also have a hideously na

update number something

So, I am alive (as much as I can be). I am working on things, really I am but I've been a bit on the busy side. Working on some fanfiction and the such. Some originals.   Updated my twitter.   Going to get a tooth pulled on Thursday.   I'm still offering commissions (10 dollar a drabble [100 to 200 words], 2 to 10 dollars for a poem, .02 cents per word for story). Yeah, so life still sucks.   I'm going to take pain killers now.

Idiots and their rising stupidity: Rant

[rant]Now...as a reader: how many read an authors note? Even just a scan just in case?   I know I do, just so I can see if they responded to my review or are going on hiatus or something of that nature.   Now...as a writer: how many of you update past Authors notes when something in your chapter is fixed or you're tired of hearing about something about that chapter that is needing to stay the way it is?   I do this, just so that people can know what's what.   Now, I have a fanfiction cal

Update on me

Okay, so, yesterday was my b-day. I got all squeal happy and what not since some of my all time fav Fan fiction authors wrote me b-day fics and a lot of people here and a few other places wished me happy birthday.   Anyways, my ass has been planted in my seat due to my knee giving out as often as it can. Painful, let me tell you. So, I'm sitting here with my leg propped up to keep the pressure off my knee and doing a lot of writing and rping.   Morena, my writing partner, is in a lot of pain
