*sigh* I need help. Honestly.

I finished my evil paper around 5, and decided take the rest of the day off 😛 I worked on Damaged, played around with These Small Hours, but then…I got bored. And when I get bored, I think of things I could do that aren’t useful.

So I made covers for the next two ebooks I’ll be compiling. And then I didn’t want to wait for you guys to see them, because hey, what if they suck? And I’ll have you know…that since my computer crash,  I lost all of my Alicia Leigh Willis material, so now when I go looking for Courtney screencaps, I am ASSAULTED by Jason/Courtney pictures.

Is there no decency in this world?

Anyway. I’m halfway done Episode 003 of Damaged, it’ll probably be ready this weekend or Monday. I’ll post the next chapter of Few Words tomorrow morning, and then announce the contest winners a little after 7 PM EST on Saturday. I’m going to try to do two winners, if the plugin will let me.

Here are your advance covers. Click on them to see them full size. (Also, let’s be distubed that I can find blood spatter texture for graphics. This world…worries me.)

So, as a recap to some of the social media whatnot that I’ve been posting over the last few days:

1. Please see this post to find out how you can read the unposted chapters of A Few Words as part of the full novel in ebook format.

2. Head over  to vote and rename Tangle!

3. Please don’t forget to visit us on Facebook or follow us on Twitter, because sometimes I update Twitter with writing bits and I try to update both with major updates.

4. And finally, read A Few Words Too Many: Chapter 19 and begin to forgive me for what I’ve put you through.

So after many many moons (eight and a half years), the final chapter of Daughters is completed. For the first time since I think began writing GH fanfiction, my alternate universe section has no in progress stories. Illusions doesn’t count as it’s on hiatus and backburnered for the foreseaable future.

I’ve also updated A Few Words Too Many with two chapters, because if you read Chapter 17 and Chapter 18 wasn’t there to read, people might set me on fire.  I’m going to be working on my paper the rest of the day, but I’ll probably take breaks, which is why I’m going to be working on whatever story my muse is in the mood for. Hopefully, I’ll write the majority of what’s left of my paper today, finish it tomorrow, and then spend the weekend on my German presentation.

Next week, one of my favorite people from back home in Philly is coming to see us in London, and she’ll be here until May 11, so between that and my German written final, I’m not sure how much I’ll be writing. Plus I have a dissertation conference to prepare for, but hey, look at all the writing I’ve managed to do with classes, trips, and papers 😛

I’ll post the last chapter of Daughters tomorrow, as well as a double update of Few Words. Once you read Chapter 17 for FWTM, you’ll understand why I couldn’t even wait 24 hours for people to read the next one. I’d bet set on fire.

I spent most of yesterday arguing with the first paragraph of my paper yesterday, but then I took a break for about an hour and worked on Damaged. I updated the About Page, the Introduction Cast Page, added a Current Cast Page, and then posted a new poll. For more explanations, check out the post at the site.

On this site, I just updated the widgets, to separate completed shories from recently updated ones. There are some sections I want to work when I get the chance, particularly the Media and Online section. I also added a new April/May story status post.

Not going to be a long ramble today 🙂 I finished Daughters last night, so that’s one more story off the drawing board. I’m not focusing on anything else this week as I’m down to the wire on school projects, so if anything gets worked on, it’s incidental and not on purpose. Once next Monday passes, I’ll only have written German exam and my dissertation for the next four months, my time will be back to loose and fun 😛

This will be the last large update for the forseeable future (unless someone unearths one of my other longer stories that are still missing, see The Fiction Graveyard for what I still know to be missing).  Thanks to the amazing people who apparently thought my writing was good enough to save and the fact that few things on the Internet are ever completely lost, I have gone a long way towards reconstructing my entire writing portfolio. There are some probably some short stories still missing and three completed longer fics for sure, but for the most part, everything is here. So, this is the last time multiple chapters for multiple fics will be added. From now, one it’ll be one, maybe two a day.

I decided to just suck it up and post the last eight chapters of Surviving the Past, so that I’m not driving people nuts.  The story is completely up and posted, flaws and cheesy lines 😛 Thanks again to Carla for saving it, and then sending it on to me. I will be forever grateful.

Just before midnight last night, I wrote the words THE END at the end of Chapter 24 for A Few Words Too Many. I’ll put more in my author’s note at the point I post the last chapter, but it was bittersweet to finish it. Few Words convinced me, more so than Shadows, that I could still write Liason fanfiction despite what the show has done to this couple.

What’s next? I still have to write the last two chapters of Daughters, but I suspect I’ll find the time to do that while on break from papers and presentations this week. I’m also working on the plotting for Damaged. I may have posted the story a bit too precipitously, as I want to rework some the episode outlines I’ve put together, so Episode 3 may be delayed. I’m also storyboarding Mad World, in preparation to begin posting it in June 2014.

These Small Hours and Tangle are the next two stories I’ll be posting simulataneously, but they’re not very far ahead, so it’s a good thing it’ll take me two weeks to finish posting Daughters & Few Words, so that I can get a few more chapters ahead on both.

Hey! Another large update today 🙂  I’ve decided to close the poll asking visitors to vote which story they want to read next because the votes are basically in and the numbers haven’t moved. So, the top three stories were Mad World (21 votes), The Best Thing (19 votes) and Counting Stars (12 votes). Once A Few Words Too Many and Daughters are finished, I’ll be focusing on Tangle, These Small Hours and Mad World.

It’s easier for me, in some respects, to have more than one story going at once since what I want to write depends on my mood, and these three stories are set in completely different time periods (Mad World is 2004, These Small Hours is 2008 and Tangle is 2008-2024).

I had a major break through with Words last night, and finished all but the last chapter, which I plan to do today and tomorrow. So I’m going to go ahead and continue posting that once a day.

I’m almost finished with the last two chapters of Daughters–I intend to juggle working on that in with the next episode of Damaged, but both might be slightly delayed as I have a major paper and presentation due next week.  I’ll be posting one chapter of Daughters a day until I either complete it or run out of chapters, at which point there may be a gap. (More likely to be a gap as I only have two chapters left to post, and Chapter 18 isn’t quite finished.)

I’ve also added the next four chapters of Surviving the Past 🙂

I know, I’ve really sucked at getting Surviving the Past all updated and finished on this site. I added four more chapters today, and *fingers crossed* I intend to post four more tomorrow, and so on. It’s the plan, anyway.  I feel bad for readers who keep getting to the last chapter posted after seeing I’ve marked it as complete on the AU page and they’re like, yo, dude. Knock this nonsense off you, beyotch. Fair enough 😛

I also updated Daughters, and I am pleased to inform people who care (and even those of you who don’t) that I am halfway finished Chapter 19, and the the final chapter is more of an epilogue montage which the most gorgeous song. I wasn’t sure how I was going to end it, until I was walking to breakfast today (FYI! If you live in London, please find your nearest Breakfast Club location, it is absolutely divine) and Family Tree by Matthew West came on my Spotify. And it…said it all.

Also added: new chapters of A Few Words Too Many. I’m going to go ahead with the new plan to post once a day because I simply can’t not post it now that we’re into the good stuff. As I posted the other day, I’m very nearly finished writing it overall.

I added two new polls. One, which we’re calling Resurrect A Story, in which you get to see the summaries for stories I abandoned for one reason or another over the years and vote for which one you’d like me to pull out and rewrite the frick out of, but finish. The second is almost useless, in which I ask readers if they want me to start labeling stories by word count, so you know going in whether you’re readig a ficlet (0-5000 words), a novelette (5001-1300), a novella (13001-50000) or a novel (50000 +).

I know you just want me to link to your updates, but, ha, what would you do with your day if you didn’t have my ramblings to enjoy?
