Starting on the 12th of September I am having Surprise Story Week. Leave a comment with any number between 1 and 25 and I will write a story of at least 1000 words on the character that has been given that number. Commenters won't know who I'm writing about until I have posted the story because that is the whole point of it being a surprise. :) Don't worry about commenting with the same number as someone else because the character will be changed once I have written the first story for that number. Any comments on posted stories will receive a continuation of it, which will be anywhere between 500 and 1500 words, until I have received ten comments. Anything written after this will be added to the sponsorable stories list.

If I receive more that seven numbers then I'll post another surprise story a week until I've used up all the numbers that I received. If I don't receive the full seven then I'll use a random number generator until the week is over or I receive another number.

I'm sad that I haven't been getting much feedback. It would be nice to know what people think of what they're reading, but I know it will take time to build up a readership. Please send people my way if you think they'll like anything I've posted so far. If someone friends me based on a recommendation and I know about it (make sure they tell me if you have sent them my way) then it will hopefully lead to some bonus material. Strangely I actually really would like to start working on the bonus material. I enjoy working on that sort of thing almost as much as I enjoy writing. :)

Over the last few days I've been thinking about what I'm going to do in the future. I am going to open up to commissions at some point in the next couple of months if people are interested. That means people will be able to order a specific story from me set in one of my worlds and I will write it. I may start out with auctioning off four commissions with a set number of words, just to see what people would be happy paying. Then I want to try out a livewriting session at the end of September in an attempt to start saving for Christmas. For every prompt I'm given I will write for half an hour and then people can donate money to see the story continued for however long they wish. If someone wants me to write for five hours or above I may have to do that after the session but I will write for that amount of time. Another thing I've been thinking about is making my work available in audio form for people who would prefer to listen than read. It's something I've always wanted to try.

Thinking about Christmas got me thinking about maybe doing Christmas/Yule/Winter Festival cards for people who have donated during the year, even though I have't yet had a donation. It would be kind of like a long distance signing and I might add in little bits of writing or something. I have several months to make a definite decision but I really like the idea. Everything I do at the moment is Internet based and I think having something handwritten would make me seem more real.

I spent some time this afternoon putting some excerpts up on my sponsorable stories page to give people an idea of what they're sponsoring. Hopefully this will be helpful to those who would like to sponsor a story but doesn't know which one because I don't have a lot of information posted on anything at the moment, apart from the free stories and the random stuff I put up last month. There are more random stories I want to work on because my brain never seems to stop, but I'm still having problems with translating what's in my brain onto my computer.

Four stories are currently with my editing friend and I'm hoping to get them back within the next week. Once I've got those I'll put them up on the sponsorship page. I think I may start putting unedited stories up on that list too, just so that people can see what I have got available even if they aren't perfect. To be honest I write more than my editing friend can edit which means that I might not send her everything, especially as there are some of my collections she doesn't like as much as others.

I'm currently working on about five stories and I hope to have them finished by Monday. I also know what I'm going to move onto after I've finished them.

Being edited: Bree's story part 2
                         Found part 3
                         Inquisition story 1
                         Post-apocalypse story 1

                          Story one for the afterlife collection
                          Introducing Ruby, which comes after Introducing Amber in the 'astral' world collection

                          Lacey's arrival part 2

Next in line: Cassie's first story (Persephone's daughter)
                      Introducing Kenner, which either comes after Introducing Ruby or between Amber and Ruby
                      Introducing Marnie part 2
                      Introducing Kestrel part 2
