Hmm, okay. I looked at the publish date for my writing on the site this year and nope, posting new story parts on a semi-regular schedule would definitely be a new thing, haha. Still, as long as I stay positive and carry it forward into next year, that’s the main thing!

Progress report, December
I’m very nearly done with Part 4 of No Way Home. Actually, I’m up to 1600 words or so and I might have to begin Part 5 with the one little thing that I haven’t written into Part 4 yet. It’s not a big deal, in fact the start of a new part is a…

The posting frenzy continues
So, there are a couple of thoughts which came up when I was looking at publishers earlier today. The main one is this: does it bother you that a dude is writing stories about women, for women? I have to consider this when approaching publishers. They may not want to take me on, or they…

Searching for a publisher, Part 3
I had a look at the submission guidelines for Bella Books just now. I think that I can tick all the boxes there. Honestly though, I’ve never knowingly formatted anything according to the Chicago Manual of Style. They do accept e-mail submissions, and it must of course include a covering letter, a synopsis and of…

Searching for a publisher, Part 2
My next hit of the day is Dreamspinner Press. Now, unfortunately, they specialise in M/M pairings, with F/F being acceptable as a secondary relationship.

Also, they accept e-mail submissions. 🙂 Anyway, positive result, even though I probably won’t contact them.…

Searching for a publisher, Part 1

No electronic submissions? Okay look. This is the twenty-first century. If you want to print out a bunch of my manuscripts so you can look…

Of brains and HD images
Strange dreams continue. I’m not quite sure how brains can conjure completely new photo-real images. I don’t even know what to do with such an image, except maybe to describe, and words are almost inadequate. I guess the focal point has to be the eyes. They’re narrow, and the irises are light, possibly light blue…

I did get around to the writing, a day late. I now have The Rescue of Princess Irena Part 4 as a buffer. No Way Home Part 4 has also progressed nicely. 🙂 I don’t think I got a lot of words done, what with watching Under Siege 2 at mum’s tonight, but I blew…

Choices, so many choices
So tonight or tomorrow I’ll be finishing up the part that I was working on last week – The Rescue of Princess Irena, Part 4. And afterwards it’s a trip down memory lane as I outline the existing parts and then try to come up with a rough idea of the next few parts. I…
