Progress Update

-
Currently chugging along, got the opening down although that might change depending on how the rest of the story flows. I always find the beginning chapters of 'major' events difficult because should I just jump right in? Do we want a build up and then the event? Can you do both?

And I tried to do it from them being at the event and starting from her waking up so I could start tying things together but it just felt like too much and I asked my sister and she told me I didn't need any more build up for this story, lol. 

As well, I have decided  I'm going to try my hand at writing a one shot for AJ. I don't know how this is going to turn out because he is not open with his feelings, or at least soft feelings, so it should be interesting. I have an idea to either write it from when he decides to use her so we can see where his mind's at and how he notices her for the first time or during show and tell.

If it turns out I can actually write from his voice [note: the one-shot will not be long, I don't want to push my luck, lol] I might do both or one from another scene entirely so feel free to say which scenes you guys might want to see from his POV, I won't promise that I can do all of them since I don't want to mangle his voice but we will see what inspiration/ability brings.

    I' prefer you do the oneshot on how he came to use her, we already know that his feelings have changed towards her over time. How he came to use her will give us all an insight on what we're dying to know though it might ruin part of the climax. Any way you can do it without ruining the biggest part of the story? Stretch19

    I really what to know the reason behind AJ using her.It could give us an idea what AJ is all about. It totally would be okay if you did his POV in other parts of the story. It was give the story a variety to look at. Can't Wait :)

    I'll definitely post the one-shot after the climax so it won't spoil it for everyone.

    I have to agree with the others and say the one shot of how he decided to use her. He is a very complex individual and i think that would show us what was going through his mind right before everything started. But of course i would also love to see the show and tell moment of even the first kiss moment because it was the next day that they decided to go out officially.

Here have some Judi

Hey y'all, Happy Easter if y'all celebrate it, if not I hope you're having a good weekend! I know it's been a while and I'm not going to bother with excuses, just going to provide writing updates. I've decided to treat Judi and Missy's stories as a series. Their stories can stand alone but they connect slightly through each other and I figure it makes it easier to show they're connected if they have a series title. As a result I've renamed Missy's story to flow better with Judi's (and talks to the plot of her story). I give to you: "Fall For Your Type" Book 1 : It Was Only a Kiss Book 2: It's In His Kiss (IIHK) Below the cut I have a IIHK snippit that provides you guys with a spoiler regarding what Judi has been up to (but is spoiler free on what's going to happen in Missy's book). Read at your own peril -- it's an unedited first draft and even some names still need to be figured out. This is

the plagiarist

Has not responded to me or taken down the story/chapters with my work and fanfiction hasn't responded back either or taken her work down so here's hoping that if enough people make a fuss it'll disappear. Her story is based in the world of Highschool Musical and is about someone with an eating disorder and a jock who's dad beats him. The girl with an eating disorder is hers I believe, although, I don't know if she has just stolen that character from someone else.  The author is the orangecarebear and her story that has bits stolen from me is here to stay starting from chapter three , Troy's POV. Troy is Adrian since the majority of his scenes are the ones I wrote and she just altered names and removed any scene that had to do with Elliot. I posted When Doves Cry on fictionpress September 4, 2007. She posted her story November 6, 2010. She has other stories up as well but if she has plagiarised anything from anyone else I'm unfamiliar with the orig

Frustration and Musings

Hey guys, I know I haven't posted in 6 months but I'm honestly fed up with myself and my inability to get past the idea/plotting stage of a story to the actual writing. Even forcing my self isn't working. I tried nano and went absolutely nowhere. I'm talking like 6000 words max. However, I've joined a couple of those publisher communities (i.e. swoonreads.com ) where you can post your stories online and depending on community feedback they have voting rounds and if you get high enough your story will be looked at by editors of the publication and then the 'winner' or top book of that period will be published. I'm seriously thinking about  submitting IWOAK to the community and see how it does. Mind you, I might age the characters up a bit, first year uni at the max for Judi and the girls just to make certain aspects of the story more realistic. I'm not sure on that yet, but it's an option, especially since I think there's not  a lot of d
