Your patience is appreciated!

I just wanted to post a quick update. I'm so sorry that I've been silent here, but lately, my mind hasn't been all that conducive to writing. Sadly, I can't seem to focus when I'm in moods like this, and that leads to bad writing. I'd rather take longer and know what I do is something I'm happy with.

Chapter 4 of LWAV is very close to being finished, though. Only two more scenes need to be finished,  and only one of those needs any real length. If I can get my brain back where it belongs, it shouldn't be more than a week before it's done.

Chimera, however, has come to a crawl. Or almost a halt. I still like the story, but I am finding it hard to really get the feel of it. I don't know if writing two so opposite kind of stories at the same time is to blame, but I might have to wait until LWAV is done before finishing Chimera.

However, I have been jotting down notes for the sequel to LWAV, currently unnamed. So, once LWAV wraps up - in which the epilogue sets up the sequel - I will probably begin work on the next story pretty much right away.

Major apologies for anyone who has been waiting, I do promise that the next chapter is on its way!

Thanks as always for your amazing support!

Chapter 3 has been submitted!

Okay everyone!! Chapter 3 of LWAV has been sent in to nifty! I hope you like it! I'm really looking forward to writing the next part, because that's where all the fun begins to happen! :D And by fun, I mean drama! ;D

I'll post again when the chapter is live on nifty, which should hopefully be in a few days.

Thanks!!

Randy

Chapter 3 done! Final Editing is next!

Writing is finally done for Chapter 3 of LWAV! Final editing is next and I hope to have it submitted to Nifty by Friday!! So, by first of next week, it should be live!

Hopefully the rest will go faster. I actually have a lot written for the rest of the story, so it helps me shape the plot.

Chapters in progress

I didn't want to answer the last comment in another comment just in case it got missed, so I'm making a post!

I apologize for the long delay in posting! I've been struggling to get the next chapter of LWAV to go the way I want it to. I think it's coming along well though and with this weekend and a holiday next week ahead of me, I anticipate getting a good bit of writing done!

Chimera is coming along even slower! For some reason, despite the fact that I enjoy the story a lot, it's fighting me in writing. Very frustrating, but I am pushing onward!!

My goal is to have at least one chapter of both stories posted online before I take a scheduled trip in mid July!!

Fingers crossed I can make it!

Slow progress and a request!

LWAV Chapter 3 is coming along very slowly. Sorry guys, I take forever to write sex scenes! I have a lot written for the parts after that though so once I slog through writing this one, the rest should come together much better!

Chimera chapters 1 and 2 are in final editing! I've put them aside for a bit so I can come back and edit again with a fresh view. I should have them up on nifty this week.

Now a request - I have a story I'm working on that I am very attached to. However, I am having a hard time on it. It is set during the Vietnam War, which of course is probably the one war I know almost nothing about! I am at the age that it was before my time, and in school, by the time we got to it, the school year was almost over so we never learned anything in depth. That being said, I need input from others who are more familiar with it. If you have suggestions of books to read or movies to watch that can give me insight, I would greatly appreciate it. I have a documentary dvd that I bought but I haven't had the time to watch it yet. I hope in the coming weeks I can sit down and make some notes on it. Also, if anyone has any first hand experience or knowledge of the war, that would be even better. I could really use some ideas from those who lived it.

Thanks for your continued love and support! I love hearing from you all, so any questions or comments you have, send them on!!

Thanks,
Randy

Sex is hard!

Well, at least writing it is!! 

Chapter 3 of LWAV is going to be a sex scene, and you never realize just how hard it is to write one until you're in the middle of it. Making it interesting without being too over the top - especially since it's a pretty important moment for both characters - is not easy. I find myself focusing more on the rest of the story and ignoring that chapter! 

Gotta put the nose to the grind stone and get writing! Think Sex!!!
