Finished the ending this morning, coming in right at that 12k word bar where I thought the whole story would fall.  Now, I just need to go back and write the sex *laugh*

Think I have the right transition from the lead-in to that in my head now, so with some luck, that will flow and get finished today as well.

Edit later in the day:

Getting there.  The rewritten transtion works, and I’m back to having them both topless.  The pace seems to be working for me, starting out slowly with lots of build-up, but about to turn into something far more hot and heavy.

That’s the primary reason why I’m pausing right now.  I just can’t write the main heat of something like that with the young one awake ( for the obvious reasons, and because of the noise associated with him being up )

I started writing on the opening of an Earth Day story in my third name, which I think will carry the theme well, unlike the other ideas that I had, which will probably end up as regular, non-contest stories.  Could be quite a few of those coming out soon.

Opened both SOTM and Lowborn, but both of those suffer from the second part of why I can’t write the sex in Heart right now.  Just too noisy to visualize properly, and I need that in everything that I’m set to write in those two.  That’s why I went with the 2nd Earth Day story.  Tales in my third name aren’t as labor/visualization intensive.  They’re more geared toward gratification, so the “storyline” is just a matter of setting up for that.

Anyway, I’m working on that and waiting for the young one to go down for the night.  Considering that he only slept about 6 hours last night, it shouldn’t be long.
