Hey all,

Super quick update. I've written a new outline for FFYT (Missy/Vince story) that I think is cute and follows a theme I had started in IWOAK which I'm sure y'all will figure out as soon as you read it, lol. I'm making it my project for my writing course so hopefully that'll be a great way to get further along in the story while improving my writing overall.

It's an interesting class in that it feels like there aren't any actual lessons the way I'm used to or even assignments the way I'm used to (you don't get grades, just teacher feedback) so on one hand having deadlines is good for me since I didn't drop all that money just to waste it, on the other hand it doesn't feel like I'm learning anything I don't know.

But I'm writing which is what I want and one of my biggest fears about writing courses was having someone try to change my writing style which I guess would happen if we got actual level grades.

Sidenote: has my worked been reviewed/boosted on any other sites lately? The past few months I've been getting faves/follows on IWOAK and I haven't updated that in like a year and there's no new info on it but quite a few people who I'm not familiar with have reached out about it. I'm just curious since I googled myself and nothing new popped up and I just hope these guys aren't expecting me to put up a story that is still being torn to shreds and reworked, lol.

How's everything with you guys? Read anything good lately? I've started a new job recently so my reading is once again on the back burner but I might start rereading The Blue Sword by Robin McKinley although the last time I tried to reread an old favourite it didn't stand up to the test of time sadly.

  1. I haven't seen your work anywhere but if I do I will let you know.
    I totally get the fear of rereading, lol. That happened to me with Sidney Sheldon's Master of the Game. I loved it so but on a second reading it was... less than spectacular.

    Good luck with you're class!

  2. Glad to hear you're enjoying the writing class, sounds like things are going well.

    If you're getting new faves it may just be from people searching specifics in what they want to read, i know i do that every now and again.

    I'm doing good but been stuck on the skull throne for months, almost done now (yay me)

    Keep going and thanks for the update
