Hello readers,
I was a quieter week this week here which is good, so only a few things to chat about. Let’s go.
Snow Angel – Still scrapping by, doing its best to keep some readers engaged. I’m curious what readers thought about chapter 4 this week, as it did have a little bit of a sadder backstory reveal. Is that something that people like/enjoy, or should those things be left to deeper stories. Just curious, feel free to let me know.
Chapter 5, this upcoming Saturday, sees the end of the vacations for Callie and Shane. Was this just a vacation fling, or is there a potential future for the mismatched couple?
Before that though, we have story 2 in the Winter’s Bite series, Whiteout. While I know these aren’t popular (like at all), I enjoy writing them so… uh, yeah. I’ll pop them out here and there for my own stupid amusement. As I’ve stated before, this is a fanfic of a video game with a different name. As I’ve said before, you don’t need to know anything about the unnamed title as it really just uses the setting for the story. Please, give it a try.
Whiteout follows a lowly gas station employee, Rob preparing for an upcoming winter storm that threatens to bury the island in snow. On the night of the blackout, a neuroscientist named Dr. Kelly Anderson crashes into his life. Can they survive the cold and each other long enough to stock up for the storm?
One thing you might notice was that Winter’s Bite: The Hunted, moved over from the ‘ghostwritten after dark’ account to the main one. I did that during the Purge event, as I had to reload most stories anyway. I was thinking of closing the secondary account and just letting everything live on the main one going forward. For whatever reason, A Girl’s Guide didn’t transfer over when I did the same thing. Now I’m wondering what I should do.
There are pros and cons to keeping the secondary account active. If I did shutter it, it wouldn’t mean I’d abandon that type of story, they’d actually get MORE love on the main account, instead of just one chapter a month. I could actually build longer narratives and not be constrained by maintaining two separate reader groups. That being said, people who like the more positive stuff on the main account will likely trash the harder stuff that’d be from the ‘after dark’ account. I don’t know, let me know what you think.
This week in writing – Camping, or whatever better name I find, is going well. Chapter 2 is done, and I like how it is going so far. I can’t remember if I mentioned that it is from a first-person female perspective, so you get more thoughts and feelings as the story plays out. I’m just hoping to mix things up for writing purposes.
Sister’s Servant on the other hand is proving to be a bit more challenging, and I’m not sure why. I’ve been stuck on chapter 13 for most of this week. I was hoping to have it completed before the weekend but that didn’t happen. I know what I want to do and where it is going but I am just having a hard time focusing on it as I’m writing. I’ll get there though, just not as quickly as I’d hoped.
Well, that’s it for this update this week. I hope you all have a good week and enjoy some great stories. Thanks for reading.
