No easy way to say this, but my father passed away on the 12th of April 2024. So I'm dealing with that, on top of writers block I haven't put even a letter into ANLoL in a couple of months.

I need to reread my own story before continuing on,
I've honestly forgotten half the stuff everyone has done, or to whom in the teens case. The forced recruitment is going to be a big part later on.

This story I'm writing I'm afraid I may not finish it. I just wanted a quick smut piece when I first started, but it seems to have gone beyond that. In the back of my mind this might take multiple books, or one that's really long.

So going to take some time to reread ANLoL, and figure out what to do with the forced recruitment and the assassins guard. Red herrings perhaps? Maybe more sinister than it appears.

I've finally gone over chapter 20. So many blue underlines from Word it's not even funny, but it's done, there may still be some errors but If I'm honest, I'm not exactly writing a formal book or anything. Monday at 8am I'll release it

Well I hit another mile stone, 85,000 words for ANLoL. I never imagined I would write something this big, and I know ANLoL will go past 100,000 still got plenty of story left to tell.

It's the new year, and some people say "New Year, New Me." but I'm going to say New Year, Better Me, because I like the me that I am, but I still need improvement, especially the health side. I'm not going to go to the gym and try to lose weight, or diet (as my favorite cat says, "diet is just Die with a T"). But I do need to improve on my taking my medications, so I will attempt to improve my compliance with taking meds. Taking meds will help keep me healthy and out of the hospital.

I'm making progress on chapter 20. I finally broke thru how and when Sara got her telepathic abilities in ANLoL. So eventually I will look over ch 20, have Microsoft word look it over for me, make sure the corrections are correct and then publish. After all that I'll have to brain storm the aftermath of chapter 15.

Until next time.

Just as I try to get back to writing after moving, writers block strikes me. I can't seem to find the right way to explain how Sara's telepathy emerged. I wanted it one way but it didn't feel right, then I tried another way, again didn't feel right. So now I am stuck trying to figure out how her ability came to be.

So that's where I am, finished moving, still have unpacking to do. Also might have lost a few items for my computers due to incompetent movers for a partial home move. A lot of things were meant to be left behind, but not all of the things we told them to pack didn't get packed. So the new owners now have some of my stuff. A kick ass laser printer that myself and BFF couldn't move and we didn't have a chance to try and move it together.

So yeah, that's my update for now. I hope everyone enjoys their holidays, be it Christmas, Hanukah, Kwanzaa, or other religious holidays, and Winter-een-mas for the gamers out there Jan 25-31 (IYKYK).
