Hey people, I know it’s been a while. So just bear with me and I’ll try to catch all up.
The first news is that I’ve posted a new story, another of my one day challenges, ‘Bang in the Yulelog’. Another futa/f/m threesome, without any futa/male penetration. This beats my story, lengthwise, by about 2,000 words. I put a lot of effort into it, I don’t know if it’s all that good. Here’s the breakdown by hour. While I say breaks, I still include that in the amount of time. Word totals are cumulative, so 1144 is hour one, and 2823 is hour one and two combined, etc.
1:15 PM start time
1 hour 1144 words
2 hours 2823 words
break between 2/3
3 hours 3769 words
4 hours 5141 words
5 hours 6734 words
Dinner break halfway through
6 hours 7798 words
35 minute Phone call
7 hours 8648 words
8 hours 9750 words
8 hours 12 minutes (first draft)10130 words
9 hours, 45 minutes, final draft, 10,552 words
11:00 PM end time
Beyond that I just send out a beta to go out for the newest chapter of Terra. Back on Mars, doing stuff and things, I won’t spoil it. Next chapter Terra will get close to Mars, and the one after that she’ll land on the planet. It won’t be easy, but it never is, is it? Keep your eyes open for that.
Moving on, I have continued to be lazy regarding updating my website. So there aren’t any new updates there, even though I still haven’t posted the latest Club Vanilla, Rose’s Baby, and the newest story I’ve done. Be patient, please, for any of those who might give half a care.
After that, a belated Happy holidays to everyone, and an early new year.
Christmas time is different for me. Last Christmas Eve, I quit drinking alcohol. I didn’t know if I’d ever be able to do it, to be honest, an entire year without a drop of booze is quite a bit for me. I didn’t know how likely it would be that I’d actually do it. But I did it, without any help or anything, really. It’s just different, experiencing the holidays like that. Everyone wants to go out and drink and get blitzed, and you play the role of Buzz McKillington.
So I started writing. A lot. Yes I did write while I was drinking, but not nearly as much, or as well. For all of you who have kept track, my stories and chapters have gotten longer, and probably just more long winded. In the 13 months I wrote 24 chapters of Terra(one still in beta), 9 chapters of Club Vanilla, 3 one day stories, two standalone stories, and the start of a round robin one. These total close to 400,000 words in total, which is a ridiculous amount of words to write. Call it north of 1,000 words a day, which is a lot. I know I’m just tooting my own horn here, but I guess my point is that I’m a writer.
But that’s kind of the problem as of late, I don’t feel it the same way that I used to. Maybe it’s just me, but I think it’s that I don’t feel like I’m getting the same amount of recognition, really. But then again I think that I’m building myself up for disappointment sometimes, in the end. I treat it like it’s my job, and that I have to write, and that sucks some of the fun out of it. But I don’t really have a lot of hobbies, and now that I don’t drink anymore, I don’t have nearly as much friends, or maybe I should say I don’t have nearly as much time deluding myself into thinking that I’m happy, when I’m just wasted. So instead of playing the same games over and over again, I just wind up writing, because I get a little bit of fresh and new enjoyment out of it.
So what does this mean? Probably nothing, not really. I’m just jarring my mouth about not getting comments, boo-fucking-hoo pansy, right? I don’t think I’ll stop writing, or stop posting, like I’ve considered in the past. But I have been thinking up some other ideas that I might never really post, or release, because they’re well, not erotic. Some day I might actually get something published, I know, big laugh, right? But it could happen, and if it did, well, I would probably stop writing these stories. Even if I could just get a little bit done, hell I’d be happy to be publishing independent books that sell in the low hundreds if it meant I was a real author. I’m working on writing enough so that it’s gotten to the point where I’m good, and I’ve even considered taking courses to help that.
Anyway, boo-hooing aside, some other notes for consideration. Red sox suck for not spending to get Texeira, but they’re still in a better position to win the division than the Yankees, but less so than the Rays. Celtics lost to the Lakers, but don’t tell the Lakers that they didn’t win the basketball championship. My team is out of the playoffs. I’ve started watching hockey for the first time in a long while. Don’t watch Twilight. Being sick is funny, how everyone thinks it’s just an excuse for you to skip work. There’s a social group at FP of mine that you should join. Been considering about dumping the website in favor of a full blog with story archives.
S’all I got. Eyes out for a new Terra.
Peace

Notes, thoughts, updates
Hey people, here's just a few things that have been going on as of late.
One of the three people who read this blog asked me to read his story, so I've been reading Senshi's In Cold Water(hosted at FP, free membership required). It's good, although I'm overanalyzing it more than a bit.
As I slowly take in that story, I've already taken care of the next chapter of Club Vanilla. It's finally the end of the theater arc, which is the second of 3 arcs to the whole of the story. The first was more or less expository, Julie getting used to the club and her own sexuality. The second is where Julie masters her own sexuality. The next 3 chapters will ultimately end the story. If you don't know already what it's going to be about, then reread the first part of the first chapter. It won't be too hard to figure out.
Now that that story is in beta mode, I've gone full steam into the next chapter of Terra. It's kinda funny, I had thought that for the longest time I would have problems with all the work. But I think doing boring manual labor for hours and hours on end have spurned my creative lobe, while being tired has given me little to do besides sit at a computer and work. Accordingly I've already got over 3000 words written down, just yesterday. This chapter won't be as long as some of the more recent ones, at least I don't plan on it, not yet.
Beyond that just dealing with Christmas rush. It's been bad, but not as horrible as it could have been. After this week there's just next week, and this upcoming Sunday is the last one I have to work. So there's some light at the end of this tunnel. Just have to get there. I was wrong about ISPs, I switch them whenever they send me the modem, the sattelite was Sunday. Tomorrow they change the phone line and then I get the internet when they send me the modem to connect up to it all. Yay, I get new internet and get to connect it too. That's what I'm paying for.
That's all I got for now. Thanks for reading.
Peace
