October Round-Up

[k_a_webb]

October didn’t go as well as September did. I was planning on posting a lot more bonus material for the Donor House collection, as well as more stories, but it was a difficult month. My partner’s shifts have been all over the place, because they have a new computer system, and my autumn/winter insomnia has returned. I’m hoping that November is going to be better, especially as I’m really looking forward to writing more stories for the Fae World, although I have an interesting shift pattern to look forward to.

Fiction I posted: Rex: Saving Melody (part 2); Nick: Waiting for Alice (part 2); Jean-Luc: First Visit to the Donor House; Cate: First Visit to the Donor House; Alice: Visiting Cate; Dawn: Talking to Lewis; Kisten: First Visit to the Donor House; Dawn: Talking to Lewis (part 2); Rex: Saving Melody (part 3); Nick: Autumn; Jena: Love at First Sight; Lucille: Hot to Moderate (Quiar); Adoni: Swallow the Sky (Quiar – written by Elizabeth Barrette); Cillian: The Autumn Twilight (Beshaki); Carly: Changing Seasons (Aerith); Anna: The Corn King; and Richard: Watching Leaves Fall.

Bonus material I posted: Characters in the Donor House collection; Donor House: Basic Information; Races of the Web (WiP); The Hidden Places; The Doors; The Demons; and Tattoo Magic.

Other posts: Website; Sponsorable Stories Page Updated; Thoughts; Web Fiction Guide; Online Again; November Poll Closed; After Nyne; Thoughts; Advance Warning; General Fund Poll (1); NaNoWriMo; Commissions Page Up; General Fund Poll – part 1; and October Prompts Session.

The prompts session is still ongoing, until tomorrow at midnight. I love having prompts sessions, but I never have many visitors, no matter where I advertise my sessions. I’m not sure what I should do about it. Part of me wants to give up, because it seems like a waste of time, but at the same time I want to continue, because of my love of getting interesting prompts. It’s something I’m going to need to think about, but I will still be having at least one more prompts session before the end of 2012.

Plans for November: posting once a day for the Fae World month; completing NaNoWriMo; posting more Donor House stories; posting more World Walkers stories; and work on outstanding stories.

Goals for November: write at least 50,000 words and hopefull earn at least £30 in donations.

If you keep going, there's at least a chance that more people will participate as you pick up more readers, which seems to be happening slowly.

Also you could add "The Case of the Counterfeit Enchantments" on Web Fiction Guide and maybe pick up more readers there.
