Moving quick now...

Hey guys,

The rewrite for chapters 1-10 is finished! I started on chapter eleven two hours ago, and will be logging even more time as soon as I can.

For those of you who have a beta copy...STOP! I have to get those back from you, ok? Please call or text me and let me know when I can pick them up, or whatever...got it?

For those of you still waiting to see the latest drafts, I'm putting together an extra beta copy that will double as my Master copy. This will not be handed out to those that cannot return it promptly and will hold six chapters. That means that one will have 1-6, another will have 7-12, and so on. Please keep in mind that these drafts are all still in the rough stage and I still need your opinions and notes for each chapter.


Well, thats all for now...its 1:30am and I need to get my beauty sleep

I'll have more to share tomorrow...

A quick note

Hey guys,

I'm about to crash, so I'll make this short and sweet.

I finished chapter ten a while back, and I'm almost done tweaking 1-6. Chapter 11 should be started sometime next week...I hope.

Work is crazy right now and I'm having trouble finding the time to write, but there are two clips for chapter eleven floating around in my notebook, so I'm still moving forward. I'm not sure when my next off day is, but I'll be spending it writting and cleaning, so dont freak out, lol. I'm not going to stop writting, and I still plan to have my work published...its just going to take some time.

Well, I got to crash now so I can get up tomorrow and put more hours in on my story before I head to work. As always, I ask that you keep me in your prayers, and wish my luck ^_~

Take care, ya'll...

New chapters done

Hey folks,

I have more stuff done, so time for an update...


Chapters 8 and 9 are done, and chapter 10 is moving along so fast, I'm finding it hard to keep up, lol. At the rate I'm going right now, chapter 10 will be done sometime tomorrow, and I'll be on chapter 11 by the end of the week.

Now here is where it gets a little harder for a bit. You see, I don't have any clips already written for chapters 11-13, so they will go a bit slower then these past few chapters. However, the outline is solid, so maybe  they won't be slow to write. Either way, they will get done.

^_^


For those of you with copies of my story, I need all copies back for now. Because I'm rewritting chapters 1-6, I won't be handing more out until I've fixed the problems in the original. So no hard feelings ya'll, but I need them back ^_^

Well, its way past my bedtime, so I'll say goodnight now, and head to bed. Sweet dreams to everybody, and I'll write more tomorrow.

Major setback for me, not so much for you...urk

Hey folks,


So, yeah, I got this nifty laptop and all and loaded my story onto a tiny USB drive so I could work on my story at work. Sounds like a smashing idea, right?

Nope.


Not only did I manage to lose all 4 hours of work I had put into chapter nine by accidently wiping the USB drive clean somehow while it was in my pocket, I also got so pissed off that I threw said USB across my bedroom and into the wall. It shattered of course. We have only found one piece of it so far and Paul says I might as well give it up cause he heard it shatter all the way out in the living room....yeah....I need a damn vacation.


On the good side of things, chapter eight is only 5 pages from being done, and chapter nine has eleven pages done so far, and thats only what I've managed to get into the computer. There are still another 4-6 pages worth in my notebook and I ain't done yet. As soon as I fix the the lost info and get it all retyped in, chapter nine should be about ready togo. The outlines I have for the next few chapters are still holding strong and fall into the story nicely. I hit the half-way marker at chapter 15...wish me luck.

Ok, I better my butt in gear and start working on getting that "lost" stuff rewritten...bleh...I hate this part....

Yeah, I've lost stuff before, and this time sucks far more then those times ever did. Please shoot me now.

Onward!

Another update, but no new chapter...yet ^_^

Hey folks!

Chapter Eight isn't done yet, but its at 15 pages so its only a matter of polishing it up and adding another page or three.

Chapter 5 has to be almost entirely rewritten as it doesn't fit into the story well enough to satisfy me or my betas. That will be done after Eight is finished, but for now it will have to wait.

Chapters 1-7 have to be adjusted as I had to move Shadow's den from the Brookville park, to Sycamore state park due to the lack of actual woods, lol ^_^. All the adjustments are minor though, and will be done before the next set of chapters head out to the beta readers.

All in all, everything is going really well, and I hope to be sending my story off to publishers by this time next year. Thanks goes out to all you guys that have helped me smooth out the rough spots so I can keep writting without having to check every word for errors.

I can't wait to be able to share my story with the world; it is, after all, my dream.

Well, its way past my bedtime, so I'd better turn in. Thanks for everything, guys!

To you that have copies...

Hey guys,

This is to the betas that have the chapters 1-6. I have removed the De'kah sprout from chapter six. It just wasn't flowing with the rest of the story; really, it wasn't. So chapters six and seven were edited and chapter eight will be taking longer then I thought, sorry!

The good news is that I'm feeling lots better though and will be able to put in some serious time to get chapter eight re-outlined and finished.

I also have a vague outline for the rest of the story, but only the outlines up to chapter 16 are solid. The rest is subject to change at any time.

Well, I got to get going and clean guinea pig cages, but I'll let ya'll know when I have the next chapter done.

Toodles!

New chapter finished

Hey folks!


Chapter seven is now finished. On to chapter eight, lol.

Now, I'm not sure how long these next chapters will take, and all my beta copies are still out with thier respective people. So I still can't share the new chapter, but at least I have it done for when I can.

So yeah....one more chapter done, so many more to go ^_^

Thanks for everything guys, you do more to help then you realize.

Toodles!
