    Chapter 1

    Thank you, Defiance. I really couldn't resist when I was given the prompt. Daniel just wanted to make his uncle happy. Happy holidays.

    Chapter 1

    It was Christmas morning and I’d tried to slip into my parents’ house quietly. Naturally, I was immediately ratted out as Sandy, my parents’ golden retriever, barked and raced toward me for a belly rub. I slid the bags I was holding onto the counter and proceeded to pet Sandy, who happily wagged her tail and rolled onto her side so I could easily rub her belly. I hadn’t even hung up my coat when my nephew came into the kitchen rubbing the sleep from his eyes and noticed Sandy getting some affect

    Daniel's Gift

    This story is written as part of the site's White Elephant Prompt Present Game. The prompt read - “It’s yellow. So yellow. You look up, a smile pasted on your face. ‘I love it,’ you say, and his happy grin makes you….”
  4. Okay, corrections made and waiting to publish. Big thanks @Timothy M. for all the help. @Cia never any good at pictures. Hope I didn't screw this up. Can't wait to read everyone's work.
  5. I just got out of work. Won't be home for an hour or so.
  6. I'll do my best to find an editor for it. Post now.
  7. ok, mine is just over a 1000. Going to probably post as a prompt tale so I can be included. Little late to find a beta and editor.
  8. I can very much understand that. Right now Seeon is highlighted and all new readers are finding it. Then going from that to other stories I have. It is fun seeing people finding my work and new comments and insights. In one case may very well get me to do a sequel. Who knows? Enjoy it.
  9. Thank you all. Had a relaxing day and enjoyed it.
  10. If you need it again I can rewrite it. No worries.
  11. You should have mine. You crossed me off the list. Lol.
  12. Sorry I missed it Lisa. I hope you had a great birthday.
  13. I try my best to answer everyone who comments. Good, bad, or indifferent because it allows me to see where I reached a reader and where I fell short. If someone took the time to read and comment, the least I can do is answer them.
  14. I've made the mistake of trying to write a story and put it out each week. Issues arose and stories ended up with months or years before completing. Best thing I can tell you is finish it. It is easier to go in and expand, cut, or whatever with a good beta and editor, rather than have issues (whether yours or a member of your team) derail the story. You'll become distracted, and your readers will be upset with the delays or stops.
  15. Hmm. I'm one of those who will rewrite a tale or start from scratch. I love fairy tales. Cinderella, Snow White, the Little Mermaid, and countless others. I use the tale, but toss in my own takes. What if Sleeping Beauty is a man? Snow White is told by the abandoned magic mirror? What if Rapunzel saved herself? In those cases I am redoing what has come before, but with all new wrinkles. Then there are stories that spring forth into new tales that have no correlation. Yet, readers will me know that something is similar to a,b, or c. So, while not the same, it has similar characters, plots, or world aspects. The best I can say is just keep writing in your author voice and don't change it. That helps to keep your work distinctive.

    Epilogue

    Seeon was just starting on the road to figuring out who he is and what he can become. While I have ideas the time hasn't been free to explore in another story yet. Thank you for reading and commenting.
  17. I'm glad you are enjoying my stories. You'll find I returned to Charlie and clan in one of the Anthologies.

    Epilogue

    Glad you enjoyed it LilDaddy. Learned to never say no about sequels.
  19. They are just starting out but at least they have each other.
  20. He is a new Seeon. His life begins anew now.
  21. Mika is learning like anyone else. This was an arranged marriage, but it is one he hopes will be loving.
  22. The whole family really is sweet. I'm glad you are enjoying it.
  23. Thank you. This is one of my favorite parts in any story I've written.
  24. I don't think they are so much self-centered as they are dealing with a society they can't fully understand. They are also members of the ruling family. They don't approach things like other people.
  25. Let's just say the Waza family usually gets their way. Seeon is in for one he'll of a ride.
