Sci-Fi/Fantasy Chain Story Idea

West Central... North of Terre Haute. I'd much rather be back down home in Southern Indiana, but can't make enough to live on down there.

We are expecting 16 inches of snow by tomorrow morning. *sigh* I like Southern Indiana. I've always wanted to explore the caves down there, and do the leaf thing in the fall in Brown County.

There are some really good caves. I'm too claustrophobic, but the guys bring back lots of pictures. There's one where people have spent years building a little model city out of clay in a barely accessible vault hundreds of feet deep - out in Shoals.

Sounds very cool. We've caved Mammoth Cave it is very cool, but yeah not if you are claustrophobic. My sis went one time, and that was when she discovered she was claustrophobic, had never been in a situation where she was confined like you are in caving and she had a hard time on the tour. I am glad my parents were with her.

Great work, DL. Very intense chapter.

Great work, DL. Very intense chapter.

Thank you very much! I'm not really sure where it came from to be honet...Dark Red and I were discussing one night and they suggested adding her inner turmoil over those she'd killed...things seemed to have gone even more surreal than anticipated...then again it was supposed to be a dream/nightmare...

 

[Darkniciad]

Getting there...

Here's the Cover revealing the subtitle - "Finding the Key", my Master - Jonathon, and Laresa's key item - an amber teardrop enclosing a pearl of gold

 

[deathlynx]

Very cool! Can't wait to read it

9000 words -- and growing

I'm in the process of resolving Jonathon's major plight, but here comes Aaron. This one will be at least as long as Ch. 15 -- probably longer. I have to deal with Horace, tie up Aaron, tie up Jonathon at the end, and then get two Djinn where they need to be for the final chapter.

And there will probably be little to no sex in this one. There's a little suggestion, and a little eroticism, but I just don't see any bumping and grinding "on screen" ( Not that Laresa doesn't think about it )

Just letting everyone know I'm still alive. This chapter is taking a lot out of me, and the last couple of weeks haven't left me with much to take out to begin with *laugh*

I'm working hard ( now that my motivation is flowing again ), and I should have a day off in the middle of next week, so I'll get it done and out to Red and DL, ASAP. I want you both to first-read it before I hand it over to Roust for final slicing and dicing.

 

[Darkniciad]

Right under 15k words, with only a couple of scenes left. I have to have Laresa deal with what she's just been through, and then get everything tied up in a pretty little bow.

Almost done, should finish it and have it out for first reads tomorrow. Fighting RL and motivation on total E-call has been a nightmare, but I'm almost there

I'm looking forward to reading this.

Ditto!

Emails sent to both of you, with the finished first draft. Any Qs, thoughts, etc. welcome. Once you've both had a chance to look it over, and I make any changes, I'll get it off into Roust's hands, and then get it in the queue.

*off to play in my box* - - The email box, you pervs!

Suuuuuuuure it is!

It was honest.

Dark...

Great story! You know I'll have questions. . lol. . .but gotta run.

 

[deathlynx]

Absolutely wonderful Dark! Just finished...the only comment I have is that Franklin and Benjamin (at the very end) would probably know that Seymour had Laresa's ring and used it to make the HQ...

And if that's the only negative thing I can find in that whole story, what does THAT tell you

And never fear Red, I'll explain everything to you after Dark is done confusing you

 

[Darkniciad]

After the IM discussion, I'll make those little changes to reflect your suggestion DL. I'll give you some more time to digest it, Red, just in case you have any questions that require modifications too

Once that's done, I'll get it off to Roust

Back to the gargantuan task of editing Danica -- in preparation to post elsewhere, and prepare for Book II to go live here.

Well, at least you have them written...I only have one book written...and my muse already is pushing me for book 2 of a sereis that book 1 isn't even finished on
Come to think of it, any fans of Mixed Blessings are also going to push me for book 2 as Alicia and Laslie are in it

Just found Seymour moonlighting on an erotic blog

Comments are enabled on this one -- I left one, linking to Lit, and tried not to be too nasty, since all your copyright information and such was at least left in. If you have a google account, drop your own comment on it, and be as nasty as you like *laugh* ( Doesn't allow comments except from google accounts ) If you need a Gmail account, drop me a line and I'll send you an invite.

I started to link directly to your story, but figured that might be a draw to one-bomb you. If they have to navigate from the main site, and then find your stuff, it might be too difficult ( or complicated ) for trollish folks to do, so I went with just a main page Lit link.

 

[deathlynx]

Would have been nice if he'd, oh, I dunno, at least left in the line breaks? Would have made it easier to read I suppose...

 

[Darkniciad]

Chapter 24 is in the queue.... Whew! Finally!

Now to get cracking on Danica

All you got to do is holler if you have any questions, or just need some support with Ch. 25 Red

Thanks.

Jonathon is dated on my view submissions page, and will go up sometime after midnight tonight.

Sounds great.

 

[deathlynx]

Great news Dark! Can't wait to (re)read and see what you've done with it!
