Merry Christmas!

I’m doing this on the iPad app, so I have no idea what I can do. But I wanted to say Merry Christmas!! As a present, there is hidden a one shot on the site. Many thanks to Karen aka Meridian for betaing this chapter, though she did send it back to me, demanding parts to be added.

Clues are in the Facebook Group. Just a reminder, Facebook gets notices first, then WordPress who is the only one getting the full chapter. I will link the chapter and publish on other sites before the new year.

But I hope you have had a Merry Christmas, or whatever you celebrate. (Since I do celebrate Russian Christmas…. I have quite a few days to wait. Though it is more of a nod to my father and I’s heritage.). I will be back to work after tomorrow since we are having Santa visit tonight for my nephew who couldn’t do it this morning….. Should be fun!!

Enjoy hunting, and I will see you in less than a week!!

This is it, then End of ED

Eric angry sad

Yep.  It’s THAT chapter, the one that ends the first book.  Karen has had it up since midnight, and she let the ladies on Facebook group know about it while I slept peacefully in bed.

I know you probably ain’t going to read the rest of this, but here it is.  Next week, and the week after that, all betas are off work.  If they happen to post, then all the good for all of us.  But other than that, don’t expect no posting from our site.  The Holidays are a special time and family is supposed to be number one, no matter if it is blood family, or a family you have made for yourself.

Good news/Bad news time.  Tonight at midnight the voting on the five questions ends on Facebook.  ED’s Eric is the lucky guy to be interviewed.  I am also looking to finish All I Want this week.  Looking at the thing after mapping out what needs to happen, well I seemed to have written myself into a trilogy or even 4 books with this one.  But it will be finished!

We have a beta for OUaT, Yeah!! She is reading through the story and as soon as I can get with Robin, we will be adding her name to the Betas list.  Please say a hearty welcome to RealJena.  And check out her site!!! (Click on her name!)  I am going to work on the next chapter to send to Sharon once I finish this fic this week.

After this is You’re, and then I will edit All I want, then Aos Si, edit You’re work on the sequel to ED.  And so on.  I am finishing fics.  I am trying to get to the point I am writing, and there is work for the betas at the same time.  I have so many stories to catch up on!  But I will be working on them, even though I am fighting MamaKitty on her story, she really wants me to write up one I came up with while entertaining her.  It kinda amazed her the fact I could sit there and tell her my story to keep her entertained.

So for now, you settle down, read the last installment of Every Dark Night, knowing there will be sequels following as soon as I get these other trilogies started also.  When I start a new story, you will get it once it is done.  Yeah?

Other things I need to touch on:

  • The food blog is up and running.  I have been using it heavily on vacation to cook for my inlaws, and we will be cookie diving soon.  My aunt has given me her Taste of Home magazine and Light Cooking for me to send to the food blog, (With all credits) so there is a lot of stuff Megan is working on getting into there.
  • This is award season!  The Diamond awards are open for the nominations, and the Bloodthirsty Awards are open for voting.  Go vote!!! BertieBotts Thirsty is up also!  Please vote for us…   How can you deny Connor?
  • The Amazon Partnership is fully up and running.  Right now it is giving me some percentage you pay, and there is no difference in how you pay, just how you get to the site.  Marty and his mom tested this by using my link and going through it, and not using my link.  No difference in the price, but one way pays me for referencing you to the site, the other, Amazon gets all the money.  The monies will be going towards this site, and paying back my generous husband for his money he has paid towards the site until now.  Guaranteed arrival is if you order by midnight today, so have at it! Link is on the side, and later we may dedicate a page to the Partnership.  It has been telling me about sales and such for the future.
  • Feel free to contact the Betas if you spot a mistake, or have questions for them.  They set up an email just for this purpose.  Also we are still looking for Betas, so if you want Bennies like being able to read ahead, and hear me talk and plan, get ahold of Karen aka Meridian and she will administer the tests to you.  No worries, she makes me take the damn tests too.
  • Also please take the time, along with me to acknowledge the great time and effort these ladies give.  They give up the time of their free time to look over these chapters and have been there in ways you cannot imagine when RL has gone to complete hell with me.  They stepped up and took over so much to allow me the ability to write and edit.  Without these ladies, this would be nowhere near as nice a site (Thanks 4PadFoot!) nor would the stories be edited to the degree they are! (Thanks Ladies, Alicia, Mags, Robin, Karen, Rissa, Sharon, Marnie, Ashley, Ellyn, Jena, Molly, Hattie and Nicole!)  And special thanks to Rissa for catching any errors making sure I don’t spend all my time going back over my stories to make sure there are no Continuity Errors, and Sharon for making so many of the Banners here and on the Facebook site.
  • Facebook group is where I hang out.  There is a link on the side if you wish to join.  I’m on spotty internet, but I try!!!!

Enjoy the chapter, and the holidays.  No throwing rotten fruit or eggs to me, Karen put a shield up, cannot get the inlaws house so messy.

New ED Chapter!

Allan Hyde 17Yep, and it has been up for awhile, to allow stalkers to the site to have first access.  Then I announced it to the Facebook ladies.  And now you have it.

Fanfiction, Fiction Pad and all the rest will only get the chapters after today.   This will be the norm for all stories from here on out.  As you guys know, Fanfiction gets edited chapters, but the rest, get the whole version.

I have bad and good news for you.  There is one chapter left.  And the sequel is started.  But… I am no longer posting until I finish a story.  So you will need to wait.  I will try to get to it as soon as I can.  I have the one I am working on, which is a E/S/G trying to fix the fuckups from TB.  I have figured in making it two stories, the second one a kinda fixing of the books. Not exactly, since I never read the books, told not to since the last book would make or break it.  Or even telling me when to stop reading.  So once I am done, I will finish You’re the first book, then come back to edit this.

Then I HAVE to finish Aos Si.  I will try to work on Edge next.

So give me time, and you will have plenty of stories, and once I am done writing them, you will not need to wait this long ass time again.  Sorry, but I am trying!!

So enjoy this next to last chapter, and I will go back to writing All I Want.

Wendy

Voting has begun!!!

December Chat

Yes ladies, I am announcing this months voting for the interview of a character this month.  Why?  Cause it closes on Friday at midnight.  Sorry it is so fast, but I need to get this one done soon so that I don’t do a repeat of last month.

So how does this work?  Go to Kittyinazs Facebook group (Link is on the side), and vote for the story you want, and nominated the character you wish me to interview this month(unless it has been nominated, then you can just like).  If a story wins, but has no nominations, the story is eliminated.  The story with the most votes, then the character in that story with the most nominations wins.

I’ll notify you to the next stage also.  If you wish your character, no matter who, to be interviewed, vote!! Make a case for yourself!!

I am off to write, hopefully.  The changing weather is getting to me, so I am experiencing the bad thing with AZ, headaches.  I am sensitive to barometric pressure this high up, so the huge changes in the weather affect me.  But this versus being actually sick?  Take it!!!

The views out here are beautiful, and I keep missing waking up in time to get you guys a picture of snow on the mountains.  I still have a month and two days left, so we will see!  WE are on a warming trend right now, the nights are above 30 degrees.  LMAO!  40 degree temp change in the day time?  Already used to it.

So I have been already helping out the family, cooking, and helping others to spend money.  I spent all Saturday setting up iPad and computers.  Thank God for WordPress whisperer.  She came on and helped me out!

Connor is enjoying his visit out here, but looking forward to Marty being back on Friday.  Heck, so am I.  Though he will be a slave driver, getting me to start running.  Ah well, I need to.

So updates?  AS far as I know, Betas are working on stuff.   I am still looking for one more Beta, Tin Man needs a beta.  Yes it had one, but we promoted her from it to being our continuity beta.  One that I am blessed each day to have!!

I was just told that the next to last ED is almost ready to post, so I am going to post this one, so that when Meridian is ready, I will post a short one.  But it will be up today!!! Next to last.  Wow.  I need to get working on stories!!!

See ya soon!

First up for your enjoyment is the next chapter of ED! Many huge thanks to Meridian aka Karen for getting that done and adding pics since my internet sucks! No throwing tomatoes, there is not many chapters left, you guys will finish this story this year. And then wait until I write the next one.

Yes, that is my plan, to write them completely out before doing another one.  I have one being written, I was going for the November thingie, but RL didn’t let up on me, and was worse.  So now I am trying to work on it, finish it.  It will be another E/S/G, not that it started out like that, but hey.  I am trying to fix True Blood, so it is interesting.   A lot of huh’s and WTF’s is going to be fixed.  The story premise is unique, so I like to see it done and started to be posted for it.

Then You’re. This other story came about when I first got the news of my Mom’s cancer and how much more risk I was all of a sudden.  I couldn’t concentrate on any story that I had at the time, and that November thingie had just begun.  So yeah, I got encouraged by my Betas to write it, saying I need to get away from it all.  I REALLY want to write You’re so, I am working towards that.

When I am done with You’re then comes the editing of the new story, so you can read that every Wednesday.  Then I will finish Aos Si, then edit You’re.  Seeing a pattern here?  Yeah that is the pattern I am trying to stick to.  I am finally in the right mood to write What If, so I am hopefully going to start that so I can finish it.  The plan is to finish all the fics I have, since I know you guys are wanting your favorites.  Shit I want them too!! I love getting back into the minds of the characters for them.  So we will be working on that.

Again, there is a call out for a Beta for OUaT.  There are tests involved, but Karen, the Queen of the Betas is in charge of that.  Contact her through the email, or join the group and talk to her there.  I have no say so in the Betas.  I have lucked out so much in my group of them, but some instances with the original stories I am writing taught us a lesson.  Be careful. So I will put call outs to the Betas, and if none of them pick it up, then we go outside to add to the ladies.  There are many benefits.  You get added to the chat, the group and are allowed to read the site of the stories which I store EVERYTHING On it.  So if you are thinking, I want to be a Beta, and I love reading ahead and chatting with Wendy on the other stories, come be a part of us!

The Amazon partnership link is on the side.  And I forgot to tell you guys, it costs you $0.  It is simply paying me for directing the traffic from my site there.  Nothing more, nothing less.  I need to help with the costs to the website so that Hubs doesn’t have a coronary. Please, help me prevent a coronary for him.

Food Blog, yeah.  Why are you hesitating in visiting? We are adding to it as we go.  I made the biscuits and stew last night and am making the Monterrey Spaghetti for dinner tonight. Soo much yums happening and my in laws are thrilled.  When I get the chance, I am getting the recipe from my mother in law for her scalloped potatoes.  Since I have come, they make tons of it.  I will also get the pistachio pudding for my hubs and the turkey/chicken burritos she makes from the leftover turkey and chicken.  So I will be sending in those recipes, what are you going to contribute?

The email for the Betas is there for anything but reviews to me.  Rissa, our awesome Continuity Beta is available to answer questions, as well as the rest of the Betas who wish to know if there is something they missed in the stories.  Even if you have a suggestion for the site, our awesome Robin has access and will read it.

Many, many thanks to my readers for putting up with all my RL trials, I appreciate it.  So many huge thanks to my Betas who stepped up and started to organize when I started to stress out, taking the website administration off my hands, getting the Betas ready and so on.  then when RL crashed on me, they stepped up even more, making sure for you guys, the stories were getting out there while I grieved and then shoved it aside to take care of my Mom.  This time here in AZ has been working to relax me, to grieve and to just have time to write which is soothing to me.  It is also showing me I need to lose weight, but hey, who doesn’t?  If I don’t get to it when my hubs comes back on Friday, he will be a mean coach and help push me to get in shape.  I want a new swimsuit, and that aint going to happen in a month or two.

So enjoy your chapter, and I am going back to write so I can get all that done in the next month or so.  Thanks again ladies, I couldn’t have done any of it without you and your encouragement.  All of you, including the readers and betas!

Wendy
