November Round-Up

One free story was posted. This was Charlotte's Name Change (LJ link) for the Pagan collection.

My ongoing prompts period was ended, after I wrote one more story which was Terry and Martin (LJ link) for the Inquisition collection. Two continuations were also posted. These were for Sauin Day Celebrations (LJ link) for the Aurora's World collection and Bree - Harvest Festival (LJ link) for the Thear collection. I have one more to write.

Surprise story week stories had one continuation posted this month: Skyler (LJ link); Sebastian (LJ link); Heliopath (LJ link); Tristan (LJ link); Richard (LJ link); Vitali (LJ link); and Callidora (LJ link).

Two random stories were posted this month: Introducing Lucille (LJ link) and Rachel's Story (LJ link). They are both a part of the newly created World Walkers collection.

No pieces of bonus material were posted this month, but I am still working on those two pieces for ysabetwordsmith. I want to get them posted by the end of December.

No donations were received this month.

Choose-Your-Own ebooks and handwritten stories were made available.

As far as I know only two people signal boosted this month, so I have chosen not to have a draw for a free story.

The winner of November's Surprise Draw is: natalief. This month the prize is the naming of a setting in any collection and one free story about this setting off at least 2000 words.

During November my goals were to: to reach 100,000 words of writing, which once again I didn't reach, but I wrote over 85,000 words; and to receive £50 in donations, which also didn't get reached.

Plans for December include: posting 1000 words of Advent Story a day; a collection spotlight and character spotlight, as well as writing for the last spotlights; prompts starting on the 19th of December of the theme of Yule and other winter festivals; a week long sale, starting today, for both handwritten stories and choose-your-own ebooks; and December is double credits month.

Goals for December: writing at least 75,000 words this month, because I think this goal will work better for me, and to reach £50 in donations, which will be going towards Christmas presents. I also want to edit everything I have posted so far and work on world building material that can be posted.

If you wish to send any handwritten stories as gifts then I need to get anything international sent out by the 8th of December, but due to postal services I cannot promise that anything will actually arrive in time for Christmas, and this makes prompted stories more difficult to get posted in time. However, if you wish to buy as a gift then I add a personalised message.

Collection Spotlight

This month the spotlight is on the Pagan collection.

What do you want to know? Ask me questions about the characters, the places, the history of the collection or anything else you can think of. You can even ask the characters questions.  All answers will be posted under the collection spotlight tag and linked to under your question, because I don't want the post to get too cluttered or for too many spoilers to be posted here.

What stories would you like to see written? Want to see more of Vitali? Interested in Oliver? Then tell me here.

Character Spotlight

This month the spotlight is on Nick, from the Donor House collection.

What would you like to know about Nick? Ask me any questions you can think of and I will endeavour to answer them. All answers will be posted under the tag character spotlight and linked to under the questions because I don't want the post to get too cluttered or have too many spoilers posted here.

Tell me what stories you'd like to see. Would you like to see what happens during his life before Alice? Would you like to see him meeting other characters in this collection? More interaction with the donors at the donor house? What he's like as a vampire?

December Free Fiction: Advent Story: Thear Collection: Trey: 1000 words

A candle provided the only light in the room. It was the morning of the winter solstice and Trey was awake well before sunrise. Most days he was awake well before sunrise, but for once he had a reason. He knew it wouldn't be long before the new High Priestess of Persephone arrived at the Residence and he wanted to be the first person to meet her. Sighing, he put his quill down on the desk. Aisling was meant to be the right person, a true priestess who would do what needed to be done, but that didn't stop him from worrying. Every time he thought of the change that was coming he knew that they needed strong people in the position of High Priest and High Priestess, but they didn't seem to exist.
