A Harlequin's Haven

Follow Me Down

...by 3OH!3 feat Neon Hitch

Come Away with Me: Chapters 12 and 13 have been written. Zelda, it turns out, has some amazing driving skills, which only inspires Johnnie to use them to his advantage.

Falling Over Me: Chapter 17 has been posted. Lara goes wedding dress shopping, and though she might have found the perfect dress, she might not have found the perfect man to go with it.

Well, you guys, I am so excited to announce that I have 3 new stories prepared, and am currently outlining a fourth (though I have about a dozen ideas jumping up and down in my head but can only outline them once one story is finished). Anyways, the list goes as follows:

Swimming in Rain: I'm really excited about this. It's my first first person POV mixed in with third, and - wait for it - it's about college students, roughly the same age. Can you believe it? Summary is as follows: He goes to UCLA and she has always been a loyal USC fan. And that's the least of their problems. I've already started writing it (though, technically, not officially) and I can't wait to continue (once Killing By Captivation is finished).

Destined to Collide: Another pirate story! What can I say? I love me some pirates. James Hunter is not your average pirate. He's quite intelligent, doesn't like violence in any way, and has an obnoxious father who stole the heart of a woman he adored. His flaw is that he is a betting man, so when he rescues an engaged woman, Bristol Montague he bets that there is no possible way he would ever fall in love with a woman like her. He's a pirate, for goodness' sake! And yet, the more time he spends with her, the more he realizes he is in danger of losing his own wager. **I should probably say that this story is a lot darker than I make it seem. But I'm excited about it nonetheless.

Waking Up in Vegas: The old cliche about boozing it up in Vegas and then getting married while completely trashed is the very basic storyline of this story. However, Isla absolutely detests the man she happened to marry, her boss and infamous defense attorny Greg. Oh, and they can't get divorced until a year has passed, Greg's boss forces the two to move in together in order to ensure that her firm doesn't look like boozy fools who get hitched and divorced like it's a trend, and there is a possibility that Isla might be pregnant. Hmm.

Stone Hearts & Hand Grenades: Another pirate story. But the summary is escaping me because I still need to outline it out. However, the basic concept is that Jeffery Morgan and Madeline Benedict go on a mission together in order to take down a fradulent group of thieves impersonating a sect of the Catholic Church. It's a lot funnier (I hope!) than it sounds.

And there are so much more I can't wait to start. I love being inspired!

... by Girlicious

Battlefield: It has officially been finished today! I'm so happy! It was definitely a different sort of story to write, but definitely an interesting genre to explore. Chapter 1 has also been posted!

Trainwreck: Chapter 19 has been posted! Jealousy is a fleeting but incredibly powerful thing, and makes you do stupid things. Like go to parties when you hate parties.

Come Away with Me: Oh, I love writing this. I started it New Years Eve, and can't wait to continue it because I adore anything John Dillinger. But you all knew that.

Battlefield: Chapter 22 was written yesterday.

Killing By Captivation: Chapter 12 was written today.

Foolish Games: I started this two summers ago and finally found the muse to start writing it again, which I am really excited about! I hope you guys like this story - it is dear to me - but it's kind of quirky, so it's understandable if you don't.

I also must say that, though I am going to rearrange my schedule so I have somewhat of a break, I'm planning two pirate stories, plus a sequel to Heroes & Thieves which I have mentioned. One is entitled Destined to Collide while the other is called Stone Hearts & Hand Grenades. The sequel I haven't really thought about yet.

Also, look for occassional involving your favorite characters. I have missed writing them.

And I have also embarked on a project that I don't want to reveal too much now, but I'm really excited about. Just know that I'm working on seven, novel length stories. This new year is going to be busy, but I'm looking forward to it, as I hope you are.

Ah, my friends, I must apologize once more for my lack of updates, but hopefully that will end now that winter break has finally begun.

Let's see where we are now, shall we?

...by Orianthi

Killing By Captivation: Chapters 7 and 8 were written today! So basically Mandy gets the evidence she needs to believe Paul, but it is accompanied by a bad nightmare.

Trainwreck: Chapter 12 is updated. Judd and Sadie have a discussion of sorts about their differences.

**ANNOUNCEMENT!**

Okay, so after much deliberation, I have decided to take a break. Not now, of course. I plan to finish all the upcoming stories I've planned, plus the ones I am currently writing. But I want to plan a long, well thought out story with developed characters, deep and very complicared relationships and the like. And obviously I need a lot of time to do this.

To be honest, you guys probably won't notice the break only because I always write in advance, but I feel as though I should inform you of it. Obviously you can see that I'm currently writing Battlefield, Killing By Captivation, I'll finish Until You're Mine tomorrow (which means I'll start Foolish Games) within the next few days, and I'm nearly finished with Stop the World. Plus, I'm planning to start and finish both Come Away with Me (My John Dillinger story) and Wanted By You (A western) before taking a break.

You should note than when I say break, I mean from writing, not from posting. I am going to constantly update like I normally do, but writing will be put on hold for a while.

Check back here for any news regarding the matter, and, as always, thank you so much for your support!

...by Carrie Underwood

So because my adapter was broken and had to be replaced (it now is, by the way), I had a lot of time to think about my stories. I was really debating taking a break after finishing Stop the World, but after reading reviews once I did manage to get online, I couldn't. I love that my readers love my stories, and as a result, I wouldn't take a break but I would be switching things around.

I don't have the time to write Blackout because it's a long story, and it took me six months to write The Dead Man's Tale. But I really want to use Jeffery Beech's character somehow, so I'm kicking more ideas around. In it's place, I'm putting Foolish Games, a story I wrote around the time I wrote The Dead Man's Tale, but had four chapters to write to finish it. It's more of a story for me, but finishing the story is my main goal and I'm excited to finish it up.

I liked having three days off from writing; it rejuvenated my excitement for my stories. It also made me realize that there were times when I need to take my break for my own sanity, and to ensure I don't consider writing something I have to do when it's something I want to do.

So, as I said, I'm really excited. Plus, I have a western outlined, I'm hoping to start a new pirate story, I want to do a sequel to Heroes & Thieves, and my dream would be to combine the characters from Saving Smiles and Fatal Attraction so the Shadow and the Enigma have a final showdown. Plus, there's that story with Jeffery Beech. So I'm keeping busy and I hope that you readers share my enthusiasm.

Anyways, on with the spoilers...

The last story I wrote before this mishap occured was Until You're Mine. Chapters 25 and 26 are done. And Frankie assumes (rightly or wrongly) about what Lewis says and what Joel adamently claims isn't true.

Stumble has also been updated - Chapter 16 has been posted. Daniel accompanies Gemma to a beach bonfire, and it's then that Gemma realizes other women might actually be interested in him. And she doesn't seem to like that.

Losing Myself in You: Yup, Chapter 15 has been posted. I refuse to spoil it for you (Nice try!) so you should go read it for yourself!

--

Okay, new story summary time! I wanted this up last weekend, but I was so busy moving stuff. Anyways, here they are now, so please forgive the lateness!

Battlefield: (January 13, 2010) Devyn isn't like any other human, probably because she's not. She wasn't made, she was created for the sole purpose to be a human weapon. She trains daily with her training partner and best friend Rachel because she's going to be used in an experiment for the public's entertainment. She's also assigned a very attractive but infuriating breeding partner from Scotland, Gerard. Her Unit is going up against five other Units, fighting to the death. The reward? Freedom. The chance to blend in with humanity. But will the elusive Director keep his word? And will Devyn and Gerard ever get along to the point of focusing on their mission?

Killing By Captivation: (January 27, 2010) The devil needs a human to marry and procreate with in hopes to taint humanity. He sends his demon, Paul, a man neither living nor dead, in order to find the perfect mate in exchange for his own humanity; essentially life. Paul finds her in Starbucks' worker Amanda (Mandy), and as the world turns into turmoil, he saves her and takes her with him. Along the way, he ends up falling in love with her, and now must decide whether she's worth losing the chance at life.

Blackout: (February 9, 2010) (Yes, I'm actually going to write this one!) Two FBI agents who happen to be partners always seem to be at odds with each other. Jeffery Beech is a devestatingly handsome, arrogant agent with swagger while Mina Wilson is intelligent, laidback, and the only one of Beech's female partners who has resisted his charms... until one night, when neither can deny temptation any longer. They pretend as though nothing has happened, and manage to work together without problems - save for the sudden realization of feelings. Then Mina is kidnapped, just moments after learning something about herself, by none other than The Director, a man notorious for kidnapping young women and having them lip synch to a CD of their choosing, releasing one song every hour. If the police can't reach her by the time the CD is finished, she is killed. Mina's CD of choice is Britney Spears' Blackout. Now it's up to Beech to decipher the meaning of each song in order to figure out just where The Director has taken Mina.

Come Away with Me: (February 18, 2010) I must give credit where credit is due: I was toying around with the idea of writing a fictional account of John Dillinger after reading 10 (yes 10, no exaggeration there) books on the man's life, and fell irrevockably in love with him, but I could never figure out where to insert my fictional heroine. Enter Evanescence's Love, who suggests that I write a story about a taxi dancer - a woman in the 1920s and 30s who danced with men for money (dimes, to be exact). And the pieces suddenly fell into place. I had my plot - based on accurate, historical information - and I DO keep to what actually happened - most of the time. This is a romance here. Anyways, the plot is - Zelda is a taxi dancer, in an unhappy relationship up until the point where a man who introduces himself as Jimmy Lawrence sweeps her off her feet. That man is really Dillinger, and after finding out about Zelda's relationship, whisks her away on adventure she'll never forget.

Can't wait to share them with you! I hope you're excited!

Okay, let's see, now shall we?

Stop the World: Chapters 8 and 9 were written today. Andrew thinks of a new way to get Harleen to fall for him, and this time, it seems to have worked.

Brighter Than Anyone: Chapter 39 has been posted! I can't give ANYTHING away. It's too vital. But you MUST read it.

Losing Myself in You: Chapter 10 has been posted. I was amused while reading it, if I do say so myself. Basically Logan takes Bridgette home (to his home, I should say), and she fights him the whole way.

Heroes & Thieves: It's completed in writing, but it's posted up to Chapter 37. Belle gets kidnapped by Commack, and Jackaby suffers the same fate. Except Belle can save Jackaby if she agrees to marry Commack...

Trainwreck: Chapters 31 and 32 were written today. I can't give too much away, though. Let's just say that it involves the homecoming dance, okay? It's posted up to Chapter 3, where Judd and Sadie fight. Nothing new, actually.

Closer: It's been completed for a while and Chapter 18 was just posted today. The Enigma brings home a guest that Taylor doesn't appreciate whatsoever.

Falling Over Me: It's up to Chapter 16 now in the writing stages. Lara feels her feelings for Brett and Mike start to change, but it's hard to realize one's falling in love with a man who happens to be dead.

Until You're Mine: Chapter 10 was written recently. Joel is hard to decipher for Frankie, except for the obvious fact that he is arrogant and he knows it. They banter and bicker, but it's Joel's fiancee that is really upset with Frankie's presence.

Stop the World: Chapter 5 was written recently. Andrew, the devil, is trying to think of a way to get Harleen to fall for him, especially since he can't tamper with freewill. So he follows her shopping, and they actually enjoy each other's company. But then when Andrew stops by the next night, Harleen barely glances at him because she's going on her date with her boyfriend.

The Dead Man's Tale: It's been finished since two summer's ago, but has been posted up to Chapter 8.

Ther'es going to be some twists and turns that are COMPLETELY unique. Give it a chance.

Brighter Than Anyone: It's been finished for a while, but it's been posted up to Chapter 37. Andie's been captured and reporters are suspecting Christian. But it's definitely not Christian that has Andie...

Bridgette and Kendall go out for a girls' night at a new nightclub, with the hopes that Bridgette will forget about Logan. Yeah, that'll be hard when he shows up...

Love's Back Pocket: Chapter 33 has been posted! Mitch does something that will change his life and it involves Tanya, and Robert's a tad jealous of Holly's interactions with Brendan.

...by Jordin Sparks feat. Chris Brown

See! I told you the whole update thing would get generated.

Anyways, so I posted Chapter 33 of Beautiful Disaster. Johnny and Izzy arrive at the hidden pirate cove, and many of the pirates there are interested in Izzy because, well, she's a female and Johnny is a notorious bachelor. So what's this about him proposing to her? Go read and find out!

Chapter 2 of The Dead Man's Tale has also been posted. I really love these two characters, this story... I adore it. Anyways, okay, so Jake takes a jewel Brooke specifically asks him not to take and she intends to get it back, even if that means tracking him down herself!

Also, Chapters 24 and 25 of Stumble have been written. An engagement party goes horribly wrong not only because of Daniel's critical parents, but gunfire. Bum, bum, bum! You'll have to wait to find out what I mean...

Ooh, I outlined two more stories that are scheduled to be released in January. Look for summaries of them in the near-future, titled Battlefield and Killing By Captivation. I'm working on two more outlines now, and, those of you who were interested in Blackout, I've decided to go through with it finally! Look for it in January as well.

And that's it for me. :) Until next time.

Wow. Sorry for the lack of updates you guys. Let's round this up, shall we?

Brighter Than Anyone: Chapter 30 was posted! We see what's happened since Andie moved out.

Losing Myself in You: Chapter 1 was finally posted! I'm really excited to see your reactions to it; I really hope you like it because I adore writing it! It's basically just an introduction to Bridgette Barker and her assignment for capturing Logan Black, an Alpha-male werewolf. Chapter 19 and 20 have been written. Logan wakes up alone and Bridgette has to see a psychologist. Hmm.

Stumble: Chapter 22 and 23 have been written! Hmm. Do they make up? They had better because both Daniel and Gemma have to attend an engagement party where Daniel's very critical family is going to make an appearance. Chapter 2 has also been posted. Gemma and Daniel's reaction to Brent's order of pretending to be married.

Love's Back Pocket: Chapter 32 has been posted. Holly has a plan to get Robert back and it's all thanks to Tanya.

Heroes & Thieves: Chapter 30 has been posted! We see the first half of the galla, and we meet Melissa, an old flame of Jackaby's.

Trainwreck: Chapters 13 and 14 have been written. Sadie and her best friend Natasha have a conversation about Judd. Also, in Marine Bio, a new kid sits next to Sadie and after Judd walks in late and sees it, feels... Well, I'm not going to spoil it. ;)

Closer: Chapter 11 has been posted. Let's just say that Taylor is slowly starting to transform. And, guess what everybody! I finished the Epilogue - the story is finished! I love the Epilogue, and I hope you do too! Oh, I'm sad to see Taylor and the Enigma go, but what a ride, huh?

Goodbye to You

Okay, where have we left off?

Heroes & Thieves: Chapter 29 has been posted. Let's just say things get a bit intimate - you could slice that tension with a knife. But it's not what you think. Not yet at least...

Also, Chapter 17 and 18 of Losing Myself in You. Bridgette does something she's wanted to do for a long time, but then isn't sure whether or not she regrets it. So in her own way, she tries to figure it out. By leaving.

Chapter 10 of Closer was posted! Taylor saves the Enigma's life. What more is there to say?

Chapter 11 and 12 of Trainwreck have both been written. I don't want to give much away, but I'm starting to feel myself falling in love with Judd Asher. Sadie and Judd have a conversation about why she's in the Narrows after he has a firm conversation with Tony.

Chapter 32 of Beautiful Disaster has been posted today! Johnny proposes to Izzy. Sort of. You'll have to read to find out what I mean.

Chapter 1 of The Dead Man's Tale has also been posted today. I love it! I love reading this (though obviously I'm writing it too). Jake and Brooke meet each other after ten years. Let's just say it's sizzling.

And finally (whew!), Chapters 23 and 24 of Closer has been written. I love it! Taylor really comes into her own - and oh! Though Chapter 24 is technically the last chapter, there is an epilogue! Bittersweet once again. I loved writing Jace and Taylor's relationship. It'll be sad (but accomplished) when I finish it.

Chapter 31 of Love's Back Pocket has been posted. It's a bit of a filler but those of you that were keen on Robert's feelings, you'll get a good read of them in this chapter.

Chapter 1 of Stumble has been posted as well. I'm really excited for you guys to read this one. It's light and fun - not too much drama. We get introduced to Gemma Harrison, the daughter of the president of the CIA, and Daniel Bond (aka Code Blue), her bodyguard and... something else! Go read to find out!

I also wrote chapters 20 and 21 of Stumble. There's a food fight between Gemma and Daniel, but upon a question about his past, Daniel becomes defensive and snaps at Gemma. We'll see what happens next...

Well, everyone, the fallout of Christian's act of missing Andie's appointment chapter in Brighter Than Anyone (Chapter 29) has just been posted. If you're curious, you should definitely check it out. But be warned - there is a cliffhanger at the end!

Chapters 21 and 22 of Closer have both been written today as well. I can't say anything only because there's too much going on. I will say, however, that Balton features prominently in these two chapters. Remember Balton is the only cause of tension between the two... Dun, dun, dun!!!

Gone in Sixty Seconds

2009-09-16T18:13:00.000-07:00

...the movie

Let's see - Chapter 31 of Beautiful Disaster has been posted. Johnny teaches Izzy how to handle a blade! Ooh... mix that in with a bout of sexual tension. ;)

The Prologue of The Dead Man's Tale has been posted. I hope everybody goes out and reads it and enjoys it and reviews it! It's my first-ever story and I'm so proud of it. Obviously it's about pirates (you know me!), and you get introduced to the main characters - Johnny Colt and Brooke Cunningham.

Also, I started writing Trainwreck! Chapters 9 and 10 are finished. Sadie hears a bad rumor about herself in Judd from a girl on her soccer team, so she goes to a bar, where Judd might hang out only to run into Tony, not Judd. Yes, I know it doesn't make sense now, but I promise, it will! :)

Okay everyone! Chapters 15 and 16 of Losing Myself in You have been written! I'm really excited, especially about chapter 14. I really like that particular chapter because I based it on a moment of Beauty and the Beast. J'taime Beauty and the Beast. What can I say? I get inspired by the things and I try to incorporate stuff like that into my story. :)

Also, Chapter 9 of Closer has been posted. Fans of the protective Enigma? Yeah, you'd better go check out that particular chapter if you know what I'm saying...

...by Regina Spektor

Chspter 28 of Heroes & Thieves has just been posted. Belle and Jessica teach Jackaby and Rick how to dance (respectively). Go read it. I think it's rather endearing, but then again, I'm biased.

Chapters 18 and 19 of Stumble have also been written. Hmm... what to say? Daniel gets a lesson from Gemma when it concerns the matter of football (American) and has an interesting conversation with his partner. I'm excited for you to read it. I really do hope you enjoy it; I'm having fun writing it. :)

Pretty Women

2009-09-12T11:13:00.000-07:00

...from the Motion Picture Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street

Chapter 28 of Brighter Than Anyone has been posted! We find out if Christian shows up to Andie's very important appointment! Go check it out - you know you want to!

And, finally, Heroes & Thieves, has been finished, at least with the writing. I wasn't sure if I would ever finish it, with that long hiatus, but thanks to determination and multiple of Public Enemies, I got a helpful bout of inspiration, knew where I wanted to take the story, buckled down, and finished it. I'm actually sad though because I adore these characters, especially my Jackaby. Maybe a sequel? Hmm. Not yet. Still got too many being planned. :) But it was a fun ride.

It's Only Life

... by Kate Voegele

Well, ladies and gentlemen, Chapter 30 of Beautiful Disaster has been posted! Johnny and Izzy are getting ready to head out to fulfill Johnny's prophecy.

Also, Chapters 13 and 14 of Losing Myself in You have been written. Bridgette wants nothing more than to escape from where she's being held, and when she's close, so close, something stops her, something that could easily take her life. I can't wait for you guys to read this story! I'm so excited to be posting it! :)

Anytime

...by Emmy Rossum

Chapters 16 and 17 of Stumble have been written. Both Daniel and Gemma experience some jealousy (though neither can explain - or admit - why), but they ultimately become closer because of it.

Also, the last chapter of Dangerous & Moving has been posted. I'm kind of sad about it. I loved writing about Jason and Max and their dangerous adventures, their witty banter, their sexual tension. But it was fun while it lasted, and I cherish this story so much. :)

Chapter 8 of Closer has also been updated. I can't say much about it except the two get reacquainted with each other. Go read it for more details. I promise you won't be disappointed...

Someone's Watching Over Me

...by Hilary Duff

Again, sorry for yesterday's lack of updates. So here's what happened:

Heroes & Thieves: Chapters 37 and 38 were written yesterday. I can't spoil anything (as in, my lips are sealed!) because technically, Chapter 38 is the last chapter. Of course, there is an epilogue... :) And Chapter 27 was posted today. Belle and Jessica have another sisterly chat.

Love's Back Pocket: Chapter 29 was posted yesterday. Let's see... how to say this... Robert gets caught doing something that could effect how Holly feels about him. Yes, I kind of left it at a cliffhanger, so beware!

Closer: Chapters 17 and 18 were written today. The Enigma gets bored, and as a result, he brings home someone. Taylor also gets reaquainted with the emotion jealousy. Beyond that, I'm keeping quiet. You'll just have to wait and see what happens.

And that's it! (For now!)

Married with Children

2009-09-07T14:50:00.000-07:00

...on DVD

Sorry for the lack of updates, but here's what's been going on so far:

Heroes & Thieves: I finished Chapters 35 and 36. I love 35. When I initially wrote it, I didn't like the last part (i.e. the intimate part), so after seeing Public Enemies for the fourth time, I came home with inspiration, and rewrote it. Now, I absolutely adore it. I know I've said this before, but I am in love with Jackaby Donn. Also, Chapter 26 of this story has been updated. They go on a first mission together and somehow talk about kids.

Dangerous & Moving: Chapter 31 was posted. Last chapter before the epilogue! We see if Max survives the night or not.

Closer: I wrote Chapters 16 and 17 of this story as well. The Enigma is incredibly pissed about losing Taylor, and concotes a plan to get her back while Taylor gets "interrogated" by officers. She also happens to meet a corrupt cop, not exactly sure what to make of it. Chapter 7 was also posted. The couple arrives at a mansion, though both are consumed in their own thoughts.

Stumble: Chapters 14 and 15 have been written. Daniel follows Gemma to a lunch Gemma has with Gillian - unbeknownst to Gemma. Let's just say Gemma isn't too happy about that, which causes some chain of events off.

Beautiful Disaster: Chapter 29 has been posted now. No confessions of love yet, but Johnny's ready to start on his journey as a leader against the Royal Navy. And Izzy will be damned if he leaves without her.

Losing Myself in You: Chapters 11 and 12 were written today! Bridgette refuses to eat dinner with them, which is necessary because the Elders need to approve of her. This pisses off Logan to no end, and he tells her if she won't eat with him, she'll starve.

Brighter Than Anyone: Chapter 27 has been posted today. Andie takes a test and she tells Christian the results.

Whew! Now go read!

How You Doin'?

2009-09-03T16:03:00.000-07:00

... Yes, I'm watching the Wendy Williams's Show.

Another two chapters of Losing Myself in You. More specifically chapters 9 and 10. Hmm. Interesting. Logan sees something he probably shouldn't have seen, and then throws Bridgette over his shoulder and takes her back home. But that's all I'm going to say!!!! I've probably already said too much!

Chapter 28 of Love's Back Pocket has been posted. Holly and Tanya go to Disneyworld (because, yes, they are still in Florida)! You know me and Disney... Heheheh! :) Love Disney! So go read it! Please?

The Spy Who Shagged Me

2009-09-02T15:34:00.000-07:00

... the second Austin Powers movie

I wrote Chapters 12 and 13 of Stumble. Hmm... An unidentifiable person threatens harm to Gemma and Daniel is none too pleased. So... well Gemma's father asks Daniel to do something which he does. And, oh yeah, Gemma dances. And unbeknownst to her, Daniel is watching! :)

Also, Brighter Than Anyone has been updated with Chapter 26. I can't say anything because I don't want to give anything away, but... Let's just say Andie might be sick. Anyways, go read it now because this is the chapter that ignites some drama!

Hot Mess

...by Ashley Tisdale

Well, another sexy chapter for Closer. (That's 13 for those of you interested!) And Chapter 14 deals with more of Taylor's transformation, albeit slightly. However, things don't go according to the Enigma's plan, which, as we all know, doesn't bode well at all when it concerns the sociopath.

Also, Beautiful Disaster has been updated with Chapter 28. I love Johnny. I think he's particularly adorable due to how naive yet intelligent he is. I hope that made sense. Anyways, we get feedback Izzy's feedback concerning just where she was found, plus Johnny's reaction upon waking up without her! Tell me what you think, yeah? :)

Well, I wrote Chapters 33 and 34 of Heroes & Thieves. I like these two chapters, particularly the latter. Jackaby has a knack for saying the right thing at the right time. Very romantic. Sometimes I forget he's not real, as though there's some angel sitting on my shoulder whispering to me. :)

We're winding down when it comes to Dangerous & Moving. Chapter 30 has been posted. Now there's only one chapter plus an epilogue until the story is complete. I'm bittersweet about the whole thing. I can't wait for you guys to read the ending but I so loved going on this adventure with Jason and Max.

Also, Chapter 6 of Closer has been posted. I answered the few questions some of you have answered. This chapter deals with the Enigma's thoughts, which I know a few of you wanted to see. I do hope you enjoy the chapter. :)

Well, ladies and gentlemen, I have finished Chapters 7 and 8 of Losing Myself in You. Logan and Bridgette have a confrontation in her office at NDS Headquarters and Logan finds out something he didn't quite know before biting the woman. I really can't wait for you guys to start reading this story. I enjoy writing it!

Also, Chapter 25 of Heroes & Thieves has been posted. Finally, Belle reveals a secret she's been holding back for the past ten years. But who does she reveal it to? You'll just have to read in order to find out!

Have a happy Sunday you guys!

I finished writing Chapters 10 and 11 of Stumble. Not much to say, really, except Daniel, Gemma, and her family check out a potential place for the faux-nuptials before Daniel and Gemma take a boat ride on the ocean. If you can't tell by now, I adore writing about the ocean. It can be very inspiring. :)

Also, Chapter 27 of Love's Back Pocket has been posted. Let's just say... Robert and Holly dance... and we'll leave it at that. Go read and check it out for yourself!

Friday! I love Fridays! I always have, but now that summer is over, I tend to appreciate them much more. :)

Anyways, so today I wrote Chapters 11 and 12 of Closer. These two chapters (plus the one before them) are incredibly crucial to the transformation of Taylor. I don't want to reveal how she transforms because I want you to see it rather than just be told it, but just know they're important.

Also, Chapter 27 of Brighter Than Anyone has been posted. I know that the past couple of chapters seem like fillers, but the drama will intensify in the next couple - I promise. Just remember, the fillers are necessary in order to get to the drama. I hope you don't mind too much.

2009-08-27T16:25:00.000-07:00

I love that movie... :)

Anyways, I wrote Chapters 31 and 32 of Heroes & Thieves today. Some big stuff happens that I don't want to reveal, but I will tell you that Jackaby gets incredibly possessive of Belle.

Also, Chapter 27 of Beautiful Disaster has been posted. Nothing much happens, but Izzy does wake up and she finds out where she is.

Not much else to write.

Ooh! I started the outline to Stop the World. I'm still not sure where it's going to go as of yet, but it will be fun trying to figure it out!

Whew. Hump day.

Anyways, I managed to squeeze out two chapters (5 and 6) of Losing Myself in You. Bridgette goes to her physician to get check up on her mark before having a raunchy dream with a certain werewolf. Can't say anymore, especially since the story has yet to be posted.

Chapter 29 of Dangerous & Moving has also been posted. Jason gets some help rescuing Max. There are two chapters plus an epilogue left before the story itself is concluded. Bittersweet. I love this story, but then again, I love all my stories.

Also, Chapter 5 of Closer has been posted, and you get some kind of conclusion from the cliff-hanger I left you with in Chapter 4. I will say, though, that the Enigma is still incredibly territorial of his woman. Don't deny you don't like it... ;)

What About Me?

Let's see... What did I do today? Hmm... I woke up early and wrote Chapter 8 and 9 of Stumble. Gemma and Daniel think about just what they had gotten themselves into before going for an enlightening walk in the park together. Their relationship is incredibly interesting to write about. Very fun, at least for me, especially because the two are so different. I can't wait for you all to read it.

Also, Heroes & Thieves has been updated with Chapter 24. Belle proves she knows how to handle a sword while Jessica complains about her Prince Charming, if there is such a thing. (Can I tell you again how much I adore this story?)

Well you guys, school has officially started, so I'm hoping I can keep up with my writing schedule. (I won't, so don't worry. ;))

Anyways, despite being somewhat exhausted, I have finished Chapters 9-10 of Closer. Somebody else doesn't heed to common sense and tries to... Well, I shouldn't say anything. And Chapter 10? An attempt on the Enigma's life is made, but Taylor does something surprising that just might save him. You'll find out sooner or later, my lovelies!

Also, Chapter 26 of Love's Back Pocket has just been posted. Holly finally comes to terms with her feelings concerning a certain rock star, but she isn't sure if he feels the same way. Hm... Go read and review!

Well, I know it's later than usual, but I finally finished Chapters 29 and 30 of Heroes & Thieves. We learn more about Jackaby's past and Jackaby and Belle dance more than once. Lots of sexual tension moments too, building up for something. Hem, hem... if you know what I mean. ;) But I'm not saying more than that, so use your imaginations!

Chapter 24 of Brighter Than Anyone has been posted. It's kind of a filler, but there is one Christian - Andie moment that I hope you enjoy. Let me just say this: Just you wait. More drama will be coming up in a couple of chapters, so make sure you leave me a review about what you guys think. It'll be worth it - I promise!

I finally finished the outline of Until You're Mine. I think you guys will like this one. Vampires in this one!

School starts tomorrow... Wish me luck...

Let's see, my lovely readers... Chapters 6 and 7 of Stumble have both been written. I love writing interaction between Daniel and Gemma, but since it's still relatively early, there's not quite flirting. However, they note certain things about each other they didn't quite expect.

Anyways, Chapter 28 of Dangerous & Moving has been posted. We find out the aftermath of Max's decision, and what Jason's plans are.

And Chapter 4 of Closer is posted too. We see more of how Taylor feels about the Enigma, and some of his feelings for her. We also find out if they successfully escape! So go read it and find out!

Whoa, you guys. Like, seriously, whoa.

I just finished Chapters 7 and 8 of Closer, and let me just tell you... Whoa. Things get... steamy between the Enigma and Taylor, though there was never any doubt about that happening, huh? Well, you'll just have to wait to read it, but I do hope you enjoy it. I loved writing it. :)

Also, Chapter 23 of Heroes & Thieves has been posted. One of my most favorite lines of the whole story is the last line of this chapter. I just couldn't resist not having it in this story. Jeez, I fall in love more and more with Jackaby. Belle is incredibly lucky... Is it weird that I fall in love with my own characters? I hope not...

Anyways, I started on the outline for Until You're Mine. I hope to finish it today, but we'll see... Wish me luck!

Alright, so Chapters 27 and 28 of Heroes & Thieves have been written. Jessica's assumptions and feelings regarding pirates are slowly starting to change, while Belle has to deal with new feelings herself. Plus, a new mission is being planned, and it includes dancing, something Jackaby and Rick need to learn from Belle and Jessica.

Also, Chapter 25 of Love's Back Pocket has also been updated. Let's just say that some Disney movies make a cameo, and Robert actually says something with substance. Sort of. Go read it to see what I'm talking about.

Oh, when concerning Trainwreck, I have a correction to make. Including the epilogue, there is a total of 31 chapters.

I also finished the outline to Falling Over Me, which is, including the epilogue, 29 chapters. Slightly shorter than usual, but it fits the plot of the story.

Masquerade

...by Ashley Tisdale

Well, everyone, I have finally started writing Losing Myself in You. As of right now, I love writing Logan's character; dark, brooding, and very perceptive, while Bridgette is organized, stubborn, and thorough. They shouldn't (and don't) like each other, but for whatever reason, they're drawn to each other. Anyways, so Chapter 1 and 2 have been written.

Brighter Than Anyone has also been updated as well. We sort of see the aftermath of what happened in the previous chapter, and Christian's reaction to it. So when you get a chance, make sure you read Chapter 23.

And finally, I finished the outline of Trainwreck. As I was writing it, I kept thinking, There's no plot to this, but I had to keep reminding myself that the essence of the plot is the relationship between Judd and Sadie. But I like it. It'll probably be shorter than my usual stories, falling into the range of ending somewhere in the twenties rather than the thirties or forties, but I think that that's what fits it best. I probably won't start writing this story until I've finished writing Heroes & Thieves, just so you all know.

Again and Again

...by Lady Gaga

Well, this quite an interesting experience today. I started writing Stumble again. The characters are coming back to me, and I have their faces in my head, so I'm getting to know them again. It was easier than I thought to start up again. I like Daniel and Gemma. Very different to write, but they seem to flow quite nicely. I hope I don't lose it any time soon. Anyways, though, Chapter 4 and 5 of the story have been written.

Also, Beautiful Disaster has been updated with Chapter 25. I think you guys may like it (though I don't want to spoil as to why), but, as always, there may be a horrible cliff-hanger to get over. (Hint, hint.)

Anyways, since I've finally added Stumble and Losing Myself in You, I've decided to begin outlining four new stories which I will rotate in once a story has finished. I'm really excited because I have all four titles for them. Oddly enough, they're all named after Demi Lovato songs, but I can't help it; the lyrics fit the story (my idea of the story, anyways) quite nicely. They are, as follows:

Trainwreck: A Breakfast Club-like story. Except there's a Monday after detention.

Falling Over You: A ghost story. The heroine is the only person who can see, hear, and feel the hero.

Stop the World: An uncle sells his niece's soul to the devil.

Until You're Mine: A vampire story (parallels with Losing Myself in You). Our heroine works for the Nocturnal Defense Society, fighting beings like vampires, except a prophecy says she belongs to one of them.

I'm excited to start outlining them. And I'm excited to start writing stories I've had outlined since forever. :)

Obsessed

2009-08-16T20:13:00.000-07:00

...on the television.

Well, Chapter 5 and Chapter 6 of Closer have both just been written. The Enigma is conflicted as is Taylor about their contradictory feelings for each other, but they revel in such contradictions. Their relationship is based on such things and they love it. But beyond that, I can't say too much lest it gets too spoilery.

But Chapter 3 of Closer has just been posted, as well as Chapter 27 of Dangerous & Moving.

Go and read them and, as always, tell me what you think!

This update is all about Heroes & Thieves you guys! Chapter 22 has just been posted, and Jessica finds something out that she never would have guessed, which causes her to completely unleash her anger at Jackaby. I have also finished writing Chapters 25 and 26 of the story. I don't want to give too much away, but Belle does tell Jessica a secret, and Jessica participates in one of Jackaby's plans, a thing she never thought she would ever do.

You guys, I know I say this a lot, but I absolutely love writing this story, especially interactions between Belle and Jackaby so your support has really meant the absolute world. I cannot thank you enough!

Well guys, it is officially official! I have finished writing Brighter Than Anyone. I cut out an unnecessary chapter and just added detail to the epilogue, which I'm sure you'll like to read. I'm so happy to finally be finished with this story. It was started a few months ago, and it feels so good to have seen it through to completion. I love writing Christian and Andie - and who knows? Maybe I'll write yet another sequel, but not now, and not yet.

Chapter 24 of Love's Back Pocket is also posted. I should have posted it yesterday some time, but I finally made it home and literally had no time due to how exhausted I was. But it is up now!

Chapter 22 of Brighter Than Anyone has just been posted. WARNING: Definitely a cliff-hanger chapter, plus you find out who the stalker is. Many of you have speculated and soon (or whenever you decide to read it) will find out if you're right or not. One thing I can tell you: Vanessa has absolutely nothing to do with Andie's stalker.

I also just finished writing Chapter 40 of the same story. If I push it, tomorrow I should be able to wrap everything up and finish it. I am so excited. :) There are supposed to be two more chapters plus an epilogue. (I always love writing my epilogues. They're so much fun!)

Chapter 24 of Beautiful Disaster has just been posted. We see some of the pirate life in Tortuga during the chapter, and there are sweet, subtle Johnny-Izzy moments for you to enjoy as well.

Remember those two new stories I was telling you about? Well, one of them is going to be entitled Raising the Stakes, so make sure you watch out for it. :) The other one, as of yet, is untitled.

Chapter 26 of Dangerous & Moving has been posted today. It deals with Jason's thoughts after what just happened, and Max finally tells him just why she's running away to California.

Chapter 2 of Closer has also been posted. I still cannot believe the amazing response I've gotten for that story. I really hope that I continue to get such lovely reviews. It really does mean a lot. In this chapter, we see more of the Enigma and somebody gets... hmm. Don't want to spoil it, so you should just go read it!

I'm also planning two new stories. I know it may seem like a lot, but I have a schedule, and I'm almost finished with Brighter Than Anyone, so I'm not too worried. I think I'll be able to do it, and I'm really excited to start them. I really don't have too much of a plot for either of them, but the main characters in both stories are seniors in high school. I haven't really tried the whole high school thing before, so I'm looking forward to the challenge. :)

Well, I managed to squeeze out Chapter 39 of Brighter Than Anyone. And, if you hadn't noticed, I have Internet back now. Finally and officially finished with my camping trip. I'm not really concentrating on writing until I get back home though. My main focus is posting, posting, posting. Once I'm back, though, my focus will shift and I'll be writing, writing, writing (and of course posting. :))

Speaking of posting, though, Chapter 21 of Heroes & Thieves is up and ready to be read (finally!). Nothing major happens, but there is definitely some Belle and Jackaby fluff. I can't wait to continue writing this story, though. I just love all of my characters.

First and foremost, I want to say that I have officially finished the rough outline for Stumble, something I am excited about only because I honestly got caught up in writer's block a couple of times and felt like I might not finish it. Currently, it's supposed to be thirty chapters, plus an epilogue.

Chapter 24 of Heroes & Thieves has also been written. A clashing of blades as well as a discussion about the mythical being known only as Prince Charming is what happens in that chapter. Things are coming along quite splendidly.

And Chapter 21 of Brighter Than Anyone has been posted. I can tell you that you'll find out who the secret admirer is next chapter.

Okay, so Chapter 38 of Brighter Than Anyone has been written, polished, whatever you want to say. It's kind of a filler, setting up the next chapter, which is probably the climax of the story. There's also a flashback in this chapter for my readers who haven't read Saving Smiles.

Also, Chapter 23 of Beautiful Disaster has been posted. Slowly but surely, the plot is on its way of starting off. Of course I had to build up the necessary sexual tension between Johnny and Izzy, which I think went pretty siccessfully and now we get to start going to where the story is going to take us. Hm... I hope that makes sense...

Chapter 3 of Closer has been written today. You guys, I can't wait for you to read this story. i'm working really hard on it, and I sincerely hope you like it because I love writing it. The Enigma is such a fascinating character, and I love exploring his evolving relationship with Taylor.

Also, Chapter 25 of Dangerous & Moving has been posted. Though the story itself is dark and definitely uses derogatory language, I just changed the rating from T to M. Yes, it is because of Chapter 25, and if you read the story, you will agree that this particular chapter has been a long time coming. :)

Let's see everybody... I got Chapter 23 of Heroes & Thieves written; it was definitely one of my favorite chapters to write. I love the relationship between Jackaby and Belle. I can feel the sexual tension brimming between them even though I can't physically see them.

Yesterday, I wrote Chapter 37 of Brighter Than Anyone. To be honest, it's getting harder to write this story, but I'm getting through it. This usually happens, doesn't it, with each story. So I'm not too worried. I end up finishing everything.

Chapter 22 of Love's Back Pocket and Chapter 20 of Heroes & Thieves were posted as well, so please let me know what you think.

Well, you guys, it's official! I have finished Beautiful Disaster! I really liked the epilogue, and I hope that you do too. I don't really like writing typical cutesy confessions of love things, especially when I know my characters wouldn't say such things. But I'm content with the ending, and I hope you are too!

Chapter 24 of Dangerous & Moving. Jason realizes something he should have known all along. And the next chapter? Let's just say that you readers need to have a shower around if you know what I'm saying.

Also, Chapter 36 of Brighter Than Anyone was written today. Christian is... well, Christian is Christian when it comes to Andie.

So... I didn't think I'd start Closer until next week after I wrapped up Beautiful Disaster, but I had such a pressing desire to start it, that the first chapter is written. It's basically all the background information you're going to need to start the story, but... Well, there's a cliff-hanger. I hope you guys like it - when I do post it, of course!

Till next time,

Wow. Finally, Fictionpress! It took a couple of days, but I got out all three chapters today (because the past couple of days, they wouldn't let me)! So Chapter 19 of both Brighter Than Anyone and Heroes & Thieves is posted, as well as Chapter 21 of Love's Back Pocket.

Tomorrow, I finish writing Beautiful Disaster! There's really nothing I can say that wouldn't spoil the story, but I'm really excited the story's coming to a close. (I know I've said that a lot, but I feel so accomplished when finishing a story!) This means that I can start Closer by either Sunday or Monday. I'm looking forward to it incredibly because I have the outline finished, and I have a specific playlist focused on this story. Plus, I have a copy of The Dark Knight on BluRay, so I'm set when it comes to inspiration.

Anyways, Chapter 35 of Brighter Than Anyone and Chapter 38 of Beautiful Disaster has been written, and today, I finished Chapter 21 of Heroes & Thieves. Not much I can about the latter story, except Chapter 21's title is Tell Me. Read into it what you will. ;)

Let's see. What have I been up to lately? Well, Chapter 21 of Beautiful Disaster has been posted, giving answers and relief to Chapter 20's cliffhanger. Where are Johnny and Izzy? You'll just have to read to find out!

Speaking of Beautiful Disaster, I just wrote Chapter 37 of the story. I can't exactly say what it's about because I don't want to spoil it, but Izzy has a cutlass in her hand and a promise she doesn't intend to keep. I plan to finish writing the story Friday - something else I'm really looking forward to.

Also, Chapter 34 of Brighter Than Anyone was written today. Things seem to get better, but you know me. Nothing as what it seems. ;) Can't say more than that, except Marissa's wedding takes place during this chapter. Or does it? (Sorry, I couldn't resist.)

I finished the Heroes & Thieves outline - a story that I'm looking forward to write because the words just flow so naturally! I've also started the Closer outline (Fatal Attraction's sequel). I'm really excited to write this story too!

Well, kiddies, got some huge news for you! But we have some news before then so you'll just have to wait until the end. Ha!

Anyways, Dangerous & Moving has been updated with Chapter 22.

Tomorrow, I plan on finishing Love's Back Pocket! Writing it, at least. I only have to write Chapter 35 and the Epilogue. I'm really excited to finish this because once I finish this story, I can continue Heroes & Thieves.

I wrote Chapter 31 of Brighter Than Anyone today. It's Marissa's bachelorette party, and the girls go to Disneyland. I wrote it in a really different way, though. I don't want to explain it only because I don't want to give too much away (plus, it's somewhat hard to explain).

I also wrote Chapter 35 of Beautiful Disaster as well. It's kind of unnerving though; I'm starting to lose the passion I had for it when I first started. However, I plan to finish it just like I am with my other stories, even though it's a tad harder than I originally anticipated. Only five more chapters to write plus an epilogue.

I am nearly done with my outline for Heroes & Thieves, and it's excruciatingly detailed, which I am very excited about! (Which is probably I'm not as excited about Beautiful Disaster.)

Now... for the news.... I plan to withhold Blackout only because a more pressing matter has slipped into my water and inspired me. I'm planning a sequel to Fatal Attraction! It's untitled and in the early stages, but the muses have spoken. Once I'm finished with the Heroes & Thieves outline, I plan to start on the Fatal Attraction sequel outline. I'm really excited because I have so many ideas I want to exploree with Taylor and The Enigma.

Let This Go

2009-07-10T13:31:00.000-07:00

...by Paramore

Sorry for the lack of updates, you guys. Totally my fault. But let's see where I'm at with my stories, shall we?

Chapter 19 of Beautiful Disaster was just posted, and I have finished up to Chapter 32 of the story. (Keep in mind the story has 40 chapters, plus an epilogue.)

Brighter Than Anyone has 16 chapters for reading, and I recently finished writing Chapter 29 of the story. I was quite inspired to write that particular chapter, though I'm sure people may not be as happy to read it. Oh well. I always know a chapter is superb (in my humble opinion) if you can't stop writing it, and I couldn't stop writing Chapter 29.

Love's Back Pocket is nearly finished when it comes to the writing process. I have two chapters to write, plus an epilogue. I must say, I'm glad this story is coming to a close. Don't get me wrong - I'm glad I stuck it out and finished it, but it was harder to write than I originally expected. When it concerns the actual story, Chapter 18 was recently posted.

Danerous & Moving is, as you know, finished when it deals with the actual writing part, and Chapter 21 of the story was posted yesterday. It's not as popular as my other stories, but I'm quite proud of it.

Heroes & Thieves is not under hiatus anymore. Thanks to pirates and John Dillenger and, of course, Public Enemies, I have found new excitement and inspiration for the story, and have started an outline so I know where I'm going. *Thanks to everyone who's stuck with it for so long! Chapter 17 was recently posted with the promise that more chapters were coming soon.

I also plan to post The Dead Man's Tale, which is the first original story I ever finished, and something I'm remarkably proud of. Chapters are longer, and the storyline is (I find) quite interesting. It's, of course, about pirates, treasure, and romance. Throw Shakespeare into the mix, and there you have it, without giving too much away.

Three new story ideas (coming soon!) are as follows:

Blackout - Two CIA agents who happen to be partners always seem to be at odds with each other. Jeffery Beech is a devestatingly handsome, arrogant agent with swagger while Mina Wilshire is intelligent, laidback, and the only one of Beech's female partners who has resisted his charms... until one night, when neither can deny temptation any longer. They pretend as though nothing has happened, and manage to work together without problems - save for the sudden realization of feelings. Then Mina is kidnapped, just moments after learning something about herself, by none other than The Director, a man notorious for kidnapping young women and having them lip synch to a CD of their choosing, releasing one song every hour. If the police can't reach her by the time the CD is finished, she is killed. Mina's CD of choice is Britney Spears' Blackout. Now it's up to Beech to decipher the clues Mina is trying to give him of where she is through Britney Spears song. (*Note - I've been toying with this idea for a long time, and though I have an outline planned, I feel it's missing something so it may not be out quite as soon as the other stories.)

Stumble - Gemma Harrison is merely trying to go through college as normally as she possibly can, given the fact that she is the daughter of the head of the CIA. When Brent learns of credible threats against his daughter's welfare, he enlists one of his best agents originally from MI6, Daniel Bond, to help out concerning Gemma's safety. To Brent, the best bet for Gemma to remain normal and to down play any suspicion in hopes to keep her as safe as possible, he suggests Daniel and Gemma pretend to get married. This way, she'll have a protector with her at all times. The problem is, Daniel and Gemma don't exactly hit it off, and marriage seems to be the least of their problems... (*Note - I originally planned to write this story along with the ones I'm currently writing now, but my inspiration ran dry. However, it's sparked a bit, at least concerning this story, and I'm currently working on an outline for it.)

Lose Myself in You - In another world where werewolves live among humans, a select group of people make it their mission to take down these beasts. Blair Barker is a member of the Nocturnal Defense Society, wanting nothing more than to take down as many werewolves as she can. On a secret mission, she meats Logan Black, Alpha-male and in charge of a large group of werewolves. Before he lets her leave, however, he nips her neck. Blair returns to normal, as normal as she can possibly get. Except now she starts feeling different, having intimate dreams that featured Logan, and Logan himself can't get Blair out of his head. Unbeknownst to either of them, in marking her, Logan has claimed her, and Blair, though she hates it, realizes she won't be satisfied with anyone else but Logan. (*Note - I have a complete albeit rough outline of this story.)

When each current story is finished (I mean finished in terms of posting on Fictionpress), I'll add a new one into the rotation.

Besides that, I think that's pretty much it. =) Glad to be back!

Sorry for the lack of updates, you guys.

Let's see, I just wrote Chapter 18 of Brighter Than Anyone (Christian and Andie talk about her upcoming meetings with two important people) and Chapter 30 of Dangerous & Moving (with surprise guests!). Which means, Dangerous & Moving is almost finished. One more chapter to write, then the epilogue, and it's done! w00t w00t!

I'm up to Chapter 22 of both Beautiful Disaster and Love's Back Pocket, which should be written tomorrow. Things have taken a turn in both stories, but I don't want to say too much. You can find spoilers here, but not by THAT much.

Chapter 13 of Beautiful Disaster was also just posted.

Chapter 10 of Love's Back Pocket is also posted. Robert gets slapped. Literally. And Holly feels something she's never really felt before: unrationalized anger.

Finally! Fatal Attraction is finally finished concerning the editing process. The story is complete, error-free! I'm so proud. -wipes away a stray tear- Chapters 22-Epilogue have been edited and reposted!

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.

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!

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.

...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...

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.

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.

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.

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!

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!

*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!

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!
