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!

Do About It

... 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.

Make You Love Me

...by Kaci Brown

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.

Big Mouth

...by Jessie James

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?

The Dead Man's Tale: Completely posted. I am so proud of that story - it was my first novel-length story, and I loved the outcome of it.

Losing Myself in You: Chapter 19 has been posted, and tune in tomorrow for the update!

Stumble: Chapter 20 has been posted.

Trainwreck: Chapter 14 has been posted.

Falling Over Me: Chapter 10 has been posted.

Until You're Mine: The actual story was completed December 14, 2009. As for the posting, Chapter 8 was posted just this morning.

Stop the World: I'm really excited for you guys to read this. I hope you enjoy it! Tomorrow, the Prologue will go up, so stay tunes for that. Chapter 29 has been written, and there aren't very many chapters after that so it should be finished before the month's end.

Feels Like Home

...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!

Play On

...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!
