Status Update

Sorry about the internet silence, school is coming to an end so things have been busy.
IWOAK

I'm about a third of the way finished with this chapter, I'm over the 3k mark but the more I look at it the more it feels unnecessary but at the same time it does have bits that I want to highlight without it just being her telling us about it. I don't know, I need to finish the chapter and then based on that see if I should cut the opening or what.


I have a little over two more weeks of school left for this term, thankfully, so as long as I remember to make sure I bring all my writing with me this chapter should be posted late December. I'm aiming for Christmas at the latest but no promises.

GENERAL
I failed Nano horribly, today is the last day and I'm not even going to bother and push my word count. Next year I'll try again, maybe working full time *crosses fingers* will make me more productive. HA.

How is everyone? For my neighbours to the South how was your thanksgiving? Hope everyone is well <33

Also, this song works so well for that story. At least to me. Love it.

    Well I was just fired so that says it all, fired for doing all my work, not looking happy and changin a generic password. Do u think they were intimidated by me for not backing down? They say when one door closes another opens, I hope that's true because I was wasted there.

    Sorry for the rant. The song sounds cool, not a big rihanna fan but liking it.

    That really sucks, wow.

    I definitely think you not backing down and looking unhappy is what helped them make their decision. They probably expected you to apology profusely for changing the password when they brought it up to you.

    And yeah, if you don't smile and they don't think you're shy, people don't want you around, regardless of how competent you are.

    But if I remember correctly you were looking into finding a new job where you could be more creative so here's your chance, it still sucks now but hopefully you'll find your self somewhere you can be happy.

    Thanks for that, that's the plan to find a more creative spot for me. Inspiration is just round the corner.

    Take your time as long as you're going to upload a great chapter as always.

    I love the song, and I think it fits with the story so much I'd say you wrote the story from inspiration after you heard this song.

    Stretch19, I wish you could find the job that fits you, and people who'd appreciate your hard work.

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
