Weekly Update: March Week Three- Mass Chaos For Sure

20Mar08

I needed really do a weekly update but I’m going to anyway. This week I’ve had to deal with an art theft attempt and then some unsure reviews and all before I’m doing a writing challange.

On the art theft front, everyone was so understanding during that time that I want to thank you all again. I haven’t had any other stories pop up on any other sites. I’ve put the website, Locked Away and CM on hiatus. I’m trying to think of ways to use the site, I don’t want it to go away completely. I had a thought the other night. I was in a group called SKoW, they have an interesting concept. Holding award rounds and giving out awards. I left them a while back, because it was quite obivious that it was meant for teens. Nothing wrong with that, just that I’m not into reading teen novels. It’s hard to get into the stories when I can’t relate to the characters any more. Sorry but reading about the highschool nerd falling for the highschool popular boy doesn’t do it for me anymore. So I figured maybe doing an adult themed rewards, stories featuring people 20 and above. But to get up off the ground will take a lot. I would need some one fore graphics, some judges, a PR person to get the word out, in other words I would need a lot of committed volunteers. So maybe one day.

On the unsure reviews: Markus generated some comments on commanding men. Although there were no dislikes, it created buzz. I’m happy to have created buzz.

The writing challenge begins tomorrow, I’m not all that ready. I didn’t outline the story, I’m just gonna write and hope for the best. I wrote Natalia in one weekend I’m confident I can do it again. as long as I don’t crap out in the end. The story, A Season of Change, summary goes something like this. You have Jill, full figured and fabulously. She’s just donated 10 inches of her hair to Locks of Love. Although her hair isn’t a crew cut it’s much more shorter than before, stopping just short of her chin. After having it styled she’s ready to go shopping to celebrate her new look. With an eye on surprising her beau of 2 years, Marcellus, she hurries home to prepare their 2 year anniversary dinner. However the night doesn’t go as planned. He hates her look and it’s pissed that she would make such a change without talking to him first. Realizing what a mistake he’s been her life, she packs up and heads to a friends. A week later she’s goes with said friend to a birthday party. Although the birthday boy Noah, is Marcellus’ friend, he welcomes Jill to the party. When Marcellus shows up with a new girlfriend, who happened to be a friend of Jill, everyone’s uncomfortable, except Jill who plays it off. Until the two start making out in front of her. Noah steps in and plays the part of hero, he implies that Jill came to him for comfort and they slept together. Jill plays along, Marcellus becomes jealous. So much so he starts saying she stole from him, and threatens to take her to court. Now what’s a girl to do?

Because of the writing challange I can’t deliver a post to the writing series. I’ll double up next week.

And in other news…a fellow writer and I are starting a collab. I can’t tell much about it just yet, I’ll fill in later. But I can leave you with a title Jar of Sins…can you make a guess?
