Finished rewriting a scene in “Blessing of the Wood” last night where the pacing felt really off.\u00a0 I’m giving it a little time to simmer before finally beginning the editing process.<\/p>\n
The first couple of scenes of “Jackin’ Jill Pt. 2” have\u00a0been written for a while, but contest stories and other things that popped in my head, demanding to be written, have kept it on the back burner.\u00a0 I already have a lot of scenes written for this one that won’t need anything more than a few tweaks.\u00a0 The story was originally conceived as a single story, but I ended up splitting it.\u00a0 After I get through the transition chapter, it should move along quickly toward completion.<\/p>\n
One thing I don’t believe I’ve mentioned is a website exclusive short that I’ve started.\u00a0 It’s called “The Right Touch” and is the first of a four-part series about a young Celes.\u00a0 The other stories in the series are currently titled, “A Helping Hand”, “To New Heights”, and “It’s Something More”.\u00a0 They’ll\u00a0touch on the budding relationship between her and her friend Anna, who later becomes her partner and lover.\u00a0 It relays Celes’ first sexual experiences with Anna.<\/p>\n
Have a tentative title and a working idea for a Saggitariad and Carol story set at about the same time as “King Thakkorias” which is “A Thief ‘n the Knight”.\u00a0 Also have a concept for a much longer story centered on Carol set around the time of\u00a0“Lowborn”.\u00a0 No title for that one just yet.<\/p>\n
I’ve had an idea for a while to write about Mara and Wade’s baby being born, but just haven’t gotten around to it.\u00a0 It will be set\u00a0between Christmas and New Year’s Day, and reveal something that will\u00a0be a central theme when their daughter shows up in a later story at eighteen.\u00a0 The plan is for it to be a website exclusive short story, and the first to go back into the timeline, rather than constantly moving forward, as all the others have.\u00a0 Title is “Child of the Wood”<\/p>\n
A story I’ve been building toward for several installments now is forming up in my head as well.\u00a0 It’s called “Beloved of the Wood”.\u00a0 It’s about Xanbrina as she deals with hiding away from the world because she doesn’t really age, watching her husband grow old at her side, and knowing her kids are going to have to face that too.<\/p>\n
Figured I’d put something up here since I can’t seem to concentrate to write this morning.\u00a0 Maybe I’ll have more luck with that when I flip through the open stories ( three of them ) again in a little while to see if any of them are singing to me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
