..:::Updates/News:::..
¤1.3.07¤
Well, hello! It's been what? Nearly 2 years? Ha! Since my last update of any kind here, I've graduated high school and now am a freshman in Vanderbilt University. Maybe one day I'll get the chance to return to this site for some more writing. Until then, perhaps I'll get to read a bit of the new works posted here by some other authors. Happy New Year!!!
¤2.17.05¤Wow,
this is the very first modicum of news I've posted for '05. I don't
know about what the general consensus is, but I think that that is
pretty sad. BUT I can say that I have a decent enough reason to
justify my three month + days of absence. School is ultimately the only
reason. Sadly, the 11th grade requires every ounce of your
time/attention/energy. Add extra curriculars...SAT/ACT prep, and
well... sleep time(which is very rare and uncommonly spoken about in
school)... yeah. But since all of you understand that, I guess that
explanation was rather pointless... GOOD NEWS? I will return to the
stories as soon as I am physically able...BAD NEWS? My grandiose return
might not be until July of this year... Sure, I might be able to pop
in once or twice within the month of May (as my school year dwindles to
the long awaited 26th), but nothing is definite. Until then, I hope you
all are well and haven't believed me to be dead or suffering on some
remote island away from civilization... although school is pretty
close...Happy very, very, belated New Year... And please read/review any chapters you might've not already read, it would mean a lot_
Many thanks, Veronica

First off, I uploaded a NEW story: The Plight of Miss Heinbecher. Just exploring third person. Ehhh...experimental writing...aren't we all, though? CHAPTER 10 OF Psychotic and Pampered
is uploaded! I don't recall having sent the notification email out
yet...but...only two readers have read the new chapter thus far (Thank
you to those two, though :)) Chapter 2 of Sincerely, Your Biggest Fan
has been uploaded too! Agh! I'm making very sluggish progress, but it's
progress nonetheless! And finally this last Wednesday I turned 17! Oh!
The apprehension! (Oh! My recent habit of preceding every exclamation
with "Oh!") Haha... ( I like to make myself chuckle.. I doubt anyone
else gets a kick of out reading this blabbering) I'm such a dork. If
you'd like to give me a gift...let it be a review! YESH!!!
¤10.8.04¤
Wow.
You talk about disappearing! Lol. How long has it been since I actually
updated anything?! Sheesh. Well, thank YOU to my eleventh grade year
and all that comes with being 16 and blah...blah... Sheesh (again). Who
misses their infant and toddler days? Anyways, besides having wistful
thoughts, I've updated...but not PandP...SYBF! HAHA! Go read it. NOW.
TA-TA!!!
¤9.9.04¤
Yeah.
O.k. So I haven't updated in eons...(not really but ya know...a long
time..ahem) but while I was actually on fp.com again, I decided that
I'd plug for a book I'm reading now. Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell
A whopping 800 page novel by Susanna Clarke. (but I hear it's too
short...good indication, eh?) It's one hell (sometimes hell emphasizes
a point better than 'heck'...heh) of a book so far, based in the early
19th century in England. It also includes MAGIC! argh. Can you not tell
I'm an avid Harry Potter geek? hah. But it's not like Harry Potter
thus far. In fact the way it's written is like a cross between Jane
Austen and Charles Dickens. Anyways, if you're looking for something to
delve into, I suggest Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell again,
and again. Superb work. And it just came out within the last couple
weeks in the U.S. Wh00t Wh00t. That's all. I'll pop back in again. Ciao.
¤8.14.04¤
Hm.
O.k. Well, as many of you might/should be aware, FP.com has some
glitches (again?! you're kidding!) and for me (and a few others on this
site as I've heard), uploading chapters of stories and poems or
submitting new poems/stories is currently impossible. >:o( So, this
means what? That until I can upload chapters Psychotic and Pampered
won't be updated for a while (which can't be as long as I've shamefully
neglected thus far...). This also means that I had a chapter readied to
be uploaded???? Well, time's a wastin' and I must return to other
things. I'm sorry (again).
¤8.11.04¤
Finally. Psychotic and Pampered is updated. Chapter Nine. Yay!
¤8.8.04¤
I'm pleased to say that I've completely redone the beginning of Chapter Six on Psychotic and Pampered
and like it much, much better. Also that the fic alone has 25 people to
have read it thus far. yah00t! lol. And even more, I broke 100 reviews.
I blame some people on this site for having attained this madness about
readers and reviews though. (coughaiurcough) _ She still rocks
though. lol. Moving along. Chapter Nine is not too0 far from completion
though it's only 981 words written. heh. It might not be as lengthy a
chapter as I'd anticipated earlier. But. Bah. My summer is quickly
coming to a close (15 days) so school must consequently be right around
the corner so I'm not sure how this will affect the progress of my
stories...Albeit, Psychotic and Pampered and Sincerely, Your Biggest Fan
have been rather neglected despite it being summer... (it's been a
month at the least chringes) Ach. Well. I'll stop rambling and resume
working on this blasted chapter... Ta-ta.
¤8.3.04¤
I
am back from Florida. And what a great trip that was. Truly. Heh. Well.
I suppose I should be updating one/or two of my stories now, eh? Ja.
¤7.26.04¤
I
changed my pen-name. Again. It was first Serene Wonder, then V.R.
Hawkins, then V.R.H, then sui generis thrice, and now, concordance. I
was thinking of yahoodlum but decided against it because I'm planning
to ask my parents for the premium account (since I'm a virtually broke
teenager with no stable income : ) and I doubt saying they're paying
for me to advertise myself on FP.com as yahoodlum would be very
encouraging, nor give them reason to part with the money for it. lol.
Oh well. Off to Florida in less than 24 hours. Yikes! I should be
packing. Heh Heh. Ciao.
¤7.23.04¤
Well.
I'll be on vacation in Florida from July 27-August 3rd. Until then,
besides packing and..."stuff", I'm trying to get around to updating Psychotic and Pampered or Sincerely, Your Biggest Fan but the prospect of updating doesn't look too good. Heh.
..:::Stories:::..
Psychotic and Pampered - Chapter Nine
Summary: What can happen in a school year with an a cappella
group, a new exchange student, two competitive basketball players, and
a spiteful cousin? A number of things
My Thoughts: Hnn.
Well, as opposed to the myriad versions (now deleted) before it,
(constantly altered and picked over) I quite like this. The flow of it
is faster than its predecessors and it is more structured. It's got its
humorous points, but hopefully, a little emotion and depth will surface.
Sincerely, Your Biggest Fan - Chapter One
Summary:
Rebecca Rooles was not your average student; she was a stalker in
denial. In a rendezvous, incognito, she finally met her focus of
obsessive adoration, however, even after careful preparation for the
very moment, she found herself in a surprising position. Scandal.
Suspicion. Dishonesty. And of course a string of romantic encounters
take place in Rebecca's life leaving her in a way..."cured" of her
dangerous obsession.
My thoughts: It really was a spontaneous story. Thus far, I've
hardly gotten any sort of plan together I just had the idea for it come
to mind while trying to go to sleep. Quite interesting though, I tell
you. One of the main character's a lot more defined through her
personality than most of my other characters.
Twelfth Year Complete - 43 chapters including Epilogue
Summary:
Oh, the classic and clichéd tale of two best friends, their somewhat
contrasting personalities, and the predicted event of how they both
ended up. All within one single year.
My Thoughts: Weellll... This was really, the first actual
fiction I'd begun. The plot, while very cliché was devised back when I
was a young one...about 12 or 13 years old. Surprisingly though, it
attracted a pretty good group of readers and received a surprisingly
good amount of reviews (for such a cliché and predictable story)...
Heh. It's entertaining though, I must say. I only hope my other two
stories will gain as much support as they're far better than this
turned out to be.
