NEWS: May 16th, 2008
Chapter five of Breaking Brian Deacon has been posted! I know I was going to wait until Monday, but it turns out I'm going to be pretty busy the next few days, and wanted to get this up for you guys. So, enjoy!
The next week is going to be CRAZY busy. I'm officially moving out of my house, so I'm in the middle of packing (which will then have to be unpacked again), and taking care of business. Also, I'm finally well enough to go back to work, and summer classes begin in about a week. I've written through chapter eight of BBD, so I will be updating once a week until I run out of material. Everything is still coming easily, in terms of writing, and with the way I've been writing lately, the story may even be finished by the end of summer. We'll see!
I'm still working on Forbidden Blood, but rewrites are much harder to do than I thought. Just take comfort in the fact that I work on usually once a day; it's just slow goings. Hopefully chapter two will be ready in a few weeks.
Also, I haven't gotten a chance to work on Abra Cadaver yet, but I will. I promise.
You've all been great. Seriously. Thanks for putting up with me, haha.

PENDING/UPCOMING:
An A-typical Fairytale: I don't want to say anything official, but I have a feeling My Princeton Prince Charming may have fallen to the wayside. Granted, there's still a chance that I'll eventually be inspired (which is why I haven't taken it down), but in the meantime, I'm considering turning it into a oneshot, or a very short story. That way you guys would be able to have some sort of closure.
Almost in Vein: A oneshot about a vampire set on turning what could just be the most difficult woman he's ever met. I've missed writing supernatural stories, and since I'm working hard on Forbidden Blood, it'd be nice to have another mini supernatural project to work on as well.
Disembodied Footprints: A supernatural/sci-fi adventure about a girl who can become invisible at will, and what lengths the government will go to in order to put her away.
Learning to Say No: The story of a girl who's never quite learned how to turn people away. When her crush (and best friend) asks her to help him woo a certain female, she's horrified to learn that it's one of her other close friends. Maybe it's time she finally learned how to say no.
With love,
