Hoist the Colors

...from the Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End soundtrack.

Sorry about the lack of updates yesterday. As expected, I'm busier on the weekends than on weekdays, but that doesn't mean I didn't update and write my stories.

Anyways, I have written Chapter 14 of both Beautiful Disaster and Love's Back Pocket, I have written Chapter 11 of Brighter Than Anyone, and finally, I have written Chapter 23 of Dangerous & Moving. Whew! But lots of stuff happen! Bex and Izzy teach Johnny some sex ed., Holly and Robert engage in their first official session (it doesn't go well), Christian and Andie have another talk about Vanessa, and Jason and Max are in Vegas. w00t w00t!

Also, Chapters 16-18 are edited and posted of both Saving Smiles and Fatal Attraction.

And Chapter 9 of Love's Back Pocket and Chapter 7 of Brighter Than Anyone is posted.

It's Your Love

...by Tim McGraw feat. Faith Hill

Well, I just finished Chapter 10 of Brighter Than Anyone, and I think this is where the drama starts to begin. I mean, it's not overbearing or anything, but the tension that's been brewing starts to increase.

I also finished Chapter 22 of Dangerous & Moving. Both Jason and Max are starting to realize or classify their feelings for each other. And, without giving away anything, their next stop is Vegas. A lot of stuff happens there.

I just posted Chapter 9 of Beautiful Disaster. There's some bonding between Johnny and Bex, as well as some chit-chat about Izzy.

Editing for Chapters 13-15 of Fatal Attraction is finished and reposted.

Vogue

...by Madonna

(I love this song!)

Okay, I just finished Chapter 13 of both Beautiful Disaster and Love's Back Pocket. In both chapters, we take a deeper look into the mindset of Johnny and Robert, and how they feel about Izzy and Holly respectively. *Hint - they have no idea how they feel but they know they're feeling something.

I also posted Chapter 11 of Dangerous & Moving so be sure to check that out. The action is starting to come now, bbs!

And I also edited Chapters 13-15 of Saving Smiles and posted on FictionPress, so if you haven't checked out that story, be sure to!

Oh, and speaking of Love's Back Pocket, I completed the outline, so I have a basic idea of where it's going which I am really excited about!

No One

...by Alicia Keys

I just finished posting the newly edited Chapters 10-12 of Fatal Attraction, which means I'm halfway done with the editing process on that story. w00t! I also posted Chapter 6 of Brighter Than Anyone.

Speaking of which, I finished Chapter 9 of the same story. Did I mention how much I love to write this story? It's from Christian's point of view, so it was rather interesting albeit different to write. I'm happy with it, though.

I also wrote Chapter 21 of Dangerous & Moving. Things are slowly progressing between Jason and Max; did I mention they dance in this chapter? No? Well they do.

And I'm halfway through a decent outline for Love's Back Pocket. Now I just need to finish it, but it'll be relatively easy, I assume.

Rock Steady

...by No Doubt.

Let's see, let's see... I updated Love's Back Pocket, posting Chapter 8. Speaking of which, I also wrote Chapter 12 of the story today. I find it difficult to know where the characters want to take this story. I kind of know where and how it's going to end - it's the whole "getting there" I'm finding slight difficulty with.

Anyways, I also wrote Chapter 12 of Beautiful Disaster today as well. I know exactly what's going to happen with this story because I made a rough but somewhat detailed outline of it last night. I'm actually looking forward to writing about it. As of right now, there should be about 40 chapters, plus an epilogue.

I also wrote the outline to Brighter Than Anyone. This is probably my favorite story to write right now (though I do enjoy all my stories) just because I love writing Christian and Andie. It's going to be very sad when I finally finish this story. Le sigh. Maybe if I miss them too much, I'll write a couple of one-shots. Anyways, as of right now, there should be 45 chapters, plus an epilogue. Yup, longer than Saving Smiles. I hope everyone is happy about that.

Speaking of Saving Smiles, I edited the next 3 chapters (10-12) and reposted them on Fictionpress. I was supposed to do that yesterday, I know, but I was too enthralled with writing my outlines to stop.

I've had the outline to Dangerous & Moving done for about a month now (maybe?), so I know where I'm going with that. There should be 32 chapters and an epilogue.

Now, if only I could get cracking on the elusive Love's Back Pocket, I would be set...

Falling

...by Emmy Rossum

Well, I just got finished with Chapter 11 of Love's Back Pocket. Interesting chapter there. Let's just say their relationship has changed in some way (though it's not the obvious way you may be thinking of). Earlier this morning, I also finished Chapter 11 of Beautiful Disaster. The relationship between Izzy and Johnny is slower, but both haven't had a realization just yet. It'll come though. When I write romances, I like there to be a connection between the hero and heroine which may take a while, but it'll be worth it... At least, I think it's worth it. :)

I just finished reposting edited chapters (7-9) of Fatal Attraction on FictionPress. I know I should've had them done last night. Oh well.

Borat

I just finished writing Chapter 19 of Dangerous & Moving. I love the dynamic between Jason and Max. I love writing Jason. Very entertaining, at least for me, because I know exactly what he looks like and what he sounds like. I can see him. I hope my readers can see him too.

I also wrote Chapter 7 of Brighter Than Anyone. Interesting stuff. The drama hasn't exactly started yet, but it will soon. Maybe a couple more chapters before the drama begins. Speaking of the story, I posted Chapter 5 of the story. I love writing this! I love Christian and Andie's relationship!

Will hopefully edit the next three chapters of Fatal Attraction and post them later tonight. Hopefully.

Cinderella

...by Britney Spears.

I wrote Chapter 10 for both Love's Back Pocket and Beautiful Disaster. Some very interesting stuff happens in them. Let's just say that Holly's not as nice as she seems and Johnny gets a new attire.

Speaking of Love's Back Pocket, I posted Chapter 7 on Fiction Press.

I also edited the next 3 chapters (6-9) of Saving Smiles and posted them.

Opposites Attract

...by Paula Abdul

I just posted Chapter 7 of Beautiful Disaster. SPOILER ALERT: Izzy allows Johnny to stay with her. What's to come? We'll see!

I also wrote Chapter 18 of Dangerous & Moving. Interesting stuff. I gather there are about 15 more chapters left with this story. Jason's so much fun to write.

After Terminator: Salvation last night (which is amazing, and I highly reccomend it!), I was provided with sufficient enough inspiration and have written Chapter 6 of Brighter Than Anyone. Everything happens now, but after the introduction of Vanessa, things are going to get... hmm, what's the right word? Tense? Dramatic? Those will do!

Today, I edited the next three chapters (4-6) of Fatal Attraction and put them in place of the originals. The editing is coming along, and I love rereading all of my stories.

Four Walls

...by Cheyenne Kimball

Okay, Terminator: Salvation tonight, babs! SO excited. :)

I posted Chapter 9 of Dangerous and Moving.

I wrote Chapter 9 of both Beautiful Disaster and Love's Back Pocket.

Summer is officially here, so I'm looking forward to more free time to write!

What Took You So Long?

...by Emma Bunton

Okay, today was definitely an eventful day. I edited the next three chapters of Saving Smiles (4-6) and replaced the ones posted with the edited versions.

I wrote Chapter 8 for both Beautiful Disaster and Love's Back Pocket. And speaking of the latter, I just posted Chapter 6 on Fiction Press.

I have a math final tomorrow, but look for Chapter 4 of Brighter Than Anyone some time tomorrow afternoon.

...and that's it, my lovelies!

Bounce in California...

*I have no idea what to title these, so I'm just going to label them with the title of the song I'm listening to.

I just finished Chapter 4 of Brighter Than Anyone.

Tomorrow, I hope to write Chapter 8 for both Beautiful Disaster and Love's Back Pocket.

I posted Chapter 6 of Beautiful Disaster today. I know I said I was going to do it yesterday, but I got caught up with unexpected plans and had absolutely no time. Sorry about the minor delay.

Look for Chapter 6 of Love's Back Pocket some time tomorrow.

I'm also editing Saving Smiles and Fatal Attraction. Chapters 1 through 3 have been edited and reposted.

Whew!

Write the Days Away

I just finished Chapter 7 of both Beautiful Disaster and Love's Back Pocket. I love watching my stories start to take place, getting to know the characters and personalities. It gets me excited to continue writing up until I finish them.

I just posted Chapter 8 of Dangerous & Moving. Go read and review, please!

Tomorrow, look for an update of Beautiful Disaster. I also plan on writing Chapter 16 of Danerous & Moving and Chapter 4 of Brighter Than Anyone.

...ugh, and I have to write a paragraph for my research paper due Wednesday... Yuck.

Speaking of Wednesday... Terminator: Salvation 12:01 showing, baby! What a way to end my first year of college! Speaking of Terminator: Salvation, Christian Bale is on the new cover of Entertainment Weekly. Love it! He looks so... yum!

Writing and Posting

I just finished writing Chapter 15 of Dangerous & Moving. I know it's not the most popular story I have written of FictionPress, but I love it! I just finished going over the outline I drew up for it a couple of months ago. There should be about 32 chapters total, including the epilogue. I'm really excited about it, if I'm being completely honest.

I posted Chapter 3 of Brighter Than Anyone this morning. I love writing Andie and Christian together. It's very different for me usually because I usually do the whole tension-filled story of will they-won't they-when will they get together, and they finally do some time near the end. However, this story is sort of teaching me to write about two people in a relationship. I want to make it real; obviously relationships aren't perfect, and they wouldn't be fun if they were. I know it seems kind of slow, but trust me, the tension and drama will soon come forward. I just wanted to give everyone some background. It has been two years since Saving Smiles has ended.

Tomorrow's plan? Hmm... write Chapter 7 of Beautiful Disaster and Love's Back Pocket.

Look for an update for Beautiful Disaster some time Saturday!

Getting Back Into the Swing of Things

Just posted Chapter 5 of Love's Back Pocket.

I'm going to start writing Chapter 6 of Beautiful Disaster tomorrow. I already have some of it down on paper.

School technically ends tomorrow, then next week I have two finals. My goal for this summer is to write one chapter per day, and post more frequently.

I'm also cooking up another story, but this time, it deals were werewolves and vampires. I.e., the Supernatural. It would be my first attempt. Wish me luck!
