It was morning. Bastien remembered that better than he remembered anything else, because the last thing he’d expected was for something like that to happen after the sun had risen. That was when he was meant to be safe from any vampires, not that he believed in vampires then, but he wasn’t. He’d gone to visit his soon-to-be-wife, has even got as far as knocking on the door, before an arm had wrapped around his chest. It pulled him backwards, even though he was fighting against it, and then something, something he really didn’t want to believe was teeth, had penetrated his neck. At first the only thing he really noticed was the pain, until she started screaming. Hearing that noise… a noise he woke up to every so often, when his mind wandered back to the past, was something he would never forget, especially when came to an abrupt end.

This is another world building writing thing that I did to learn about this series. I think this is probably older than the demon assassins, although not by much, and was going to be connected with Kim's Earth and Thera. Now it's become an AU of Kim's Earth, beginning the mess the World Government created by making some very bad decisions. Alexis is one of the main characters and I have plans to write about at least another couple of the ships, because I think the whole idea is fascinating.

This is very much me trying to work out how the world works, so it's probably not where I'm actually going to start, but I wanted to write it in order to understand everything a little better. All of the characters are unnamed, which means it might be a little confusing. I started planning this in about 2010, I believe, and I'd love to get to writing more - if you like this, or want to seem more, toss something into the tip jar. The basic premise behind it is that the male demons become assassins for a number of years when they are in their late teens, for reasons that are explained below, and how that affects the lives of the humans they are hired by, or seen by, or have any dealings with at all. One of the things I want to do is write more from the demon's POV as well, to show how they take to the position they find themselves in.

All three of the links today will take you to unfinished stories within collections I am currently working on. It should be easy enough to go from one to the next and if you're interested in the collection itself use the collections dropdown menu in the sidebar.

The first story is a Kim's Earth story. It's set a little later than the rest, although all of the stories are relatively early in the timeline for this collection. One thing to note about this collection is that there are a lot of stories with mentions of death, as it is apocalyptic/post-apocalyptic. So, this is Skye: Stealing Shoes. Let me know if you like this story, or any of the others in the collection, and I'll do my best to finish them as soon as possible.

Next we have a Brotherhood story. This is a collection I've been working on for years, ever since I first decided on the Millennium Bug being something supernatural rather than anything to do with computers, and this is based on that. The story I've chosen is relatively early, but not the earliest, so this is Kara: Meeting Daniel. As above let me know what you think and I'll write more on any of these stories, because it is one of my favourite collections, although I do need to work a lot more on the world building for it.

Finally, for today, there's an Aurora's World story, and this is one of my favourites. I love stories like this, so the plan is to write more of them. Aurora's World is a wolrd where the magic you have is connected to the day you're born - and it's illegal. The story I've chosen is, as far as I know, mid-timeline, but this is one of those collections that keeps growing as I learn more about the world. This is Becoming Human. As above let me know what you think.

If you like any of these stories as much as I do you can own them as they are in the Collection Ebooks or you can join the Monthly Membership and wait for the finished stories to become available (and get access to them as they are in the Collection Ebooks). Updates will go to all buyers on a fortnightly basis once I've started finishing stories off to let you know what's newly available.

Signal boosting is also always appreciated.

Is there anyone who’d like me to add a link on my blog? I have a few of my favourite links and a couple of my own, but I’m happy to add more if there are people who want to be advertised here.

Wordcount Analyis by Elizabeth Barette (LJ user ysabetwordsmith)

Review (from October 2011) by Elizabeth Barette

In the last year Elizabeth has been my top patron and I don’t think I would have continued this if she hadn’t been there from day one prompting for stories and collecting credits once the system was set up. Thank you, Elizabeth.

The Rose and Bay Awards were set up by [livejournal.com profile] ysabetwordsmith as a way to reward, and promote, crowdfunded projects. This year I have been nominated in the fiction category, which is just amazing. [livejournal.com profile] ysabetwordsmith, who is my number 1 patron, put my name down (thank you), and I am up against some of my favourite authors, so I have absolutely no chance of winning. :) I'm just amazed that someone likes my work enough to nominate me.

If you like my work then it would be great if you'd vote for me. I'd also suggest you visit several of my competitors - the ever wonderful [livejournal.com profile] aldersprig, whose world I am currently playing in; [personal profile] clare_dragonfly; [livejournal.com profile] haikujaguar (who is also nominated in several other categories - personally I love her blog and I have several of her stories on my Kindle); and [livejournal.com profile] skjam.

One of my personal favourites in the art category is [personal profile] meeks, who did me a wonderful drawing as a part of her story sketches project. All of her art is amazing, and she regularly takes part in Sketch Fest, which is well worth a visit.

Sketch Fest was created by [livejournal.com profile] ellenmillion, one of the busiest people on the Internet, who also is the creator of Torn World and several other amazing things. I'd also suggest you check out as many of them as you can.

Then, even though she's not eligble this year, another person well worth a visit is [livejournal.com profile] ysabetwordsmith.
