Second Chance just went live at Storiesonline.
Go give it a read and a vote! If you haven’t already, SOL readers can always go vote for it in the contest at Lit, too. No pressure, though!

Finished the main image for the “Shorts” page tonight. Now, I just have to build the page around the darn thing ( and set up the conditionals that filter images )
Once I have the layout the way I want it, I’ll add the as yet unedited first of the early Devan trilogy to the database for testing purposes. I need to go through and modify my backend utilities, “Latest Updates” and the “My Work” page to deal with the new shorts database for easy management.
Once it will populate the menu on the shorts page and display the actual story, I’ll test to make sure it also displays on the “My Work” page. If you happen to be around while that’s happening, the new Devan story may appear briefly before I turn the public bit back off.
Unfortunately, I’ll have to wing it for the “My Updates” page. Other than cloning it, there’s no real easy way to test that except going live *laugh*
The environment around here just wasn’t conductive to writing tonight. It’s like that sometimes. It depends upon the young one’s mood. I’m not in a naughty part of SOTM or Lowborn, so that’s not an issue. It’s just loud and distracting tonight. Couldn’t visualize, and I’m too tired to do it now that he’s winding down.
Damn near forgot to post Second Chance at SOL :p Realized it when I was checking the updates page, figuring out how I was going to display the “shorts” link. I think I’ll probably wait to post it for Friday at this point.
We’ll see if the young one will continue to cooperate and if I can close my eyes to visualize without nodding off later.
Okay, Laz has changed his posting schedule since the last time I posted a new story *laugh* He wasn’t posting anything at midnight, and apparently he’s back to doing that again.
So, Beauty of the Wood is live at SOL
This is the new, full edit. Sorry it took so long. Hope you enjoy it, and remember to vote. Comments are naturally most appreciated.
EDIT: Just checked, and to my surprise, the new edit is also available at Literotica. I was expecting it to take a week for that to process, but it’s already up.
As promised, Beauty of the Wood is in the queue at Storiesonline. It should go live some time tomorrow morning.
Over halfway done with the first of those three short pre Arts Ardane #1 Devan stories, and Lowborn is still moving along. Getting closer to new Dark releases ( and quite a few of them ) slowly but surely.
Got the impression read on Beauty of the Wood back, so hashing out the various points of that has been the focus for this evening. I have a good base to work from for doing my second draft now, and I’ll be working on that alongside of Lowborn.
I’ll write the second draft, give it a full edit and cold read, then send that off to M.L. again for thoughts on the changes. By that point, the tweaks are usually minor, and will be hashed out in quick notes, rather than new drafts. Once the final tweaks are complete, it will go off to Roust for final technical editing and his thoughts as well. Once the draft has passed his inspection, I’ll queue it up at SOL and submit the updated draft to Literotica.
Trying to come down a little from the work on Beauty to get more written on Lowborn tonight.
EDIT: ( a little later ) Got a bit more done on Lowborn. Edging toward the 4500 mark. If I can get out of work at a decent hour tomorrow, I might just finish this chapter before hitting the second draft of Beauty.
