Here is my status report:

The Captives, the final chapter: I have it the story line in my head, some scenes, but not much time to write. Hopefully this week I can make real progress.

Still half finished: Barefoot, my first chapter and a sequel of The Captives. Going where panyasan never have gone before. :lol: :lol:

Someone asked me to write a sequel on Whisper. I have some ideas about a couple of chapters, in which in the second chapter my rewrite of The Seventh and the effects on Trip and T'Pol will have a place.

Also that same person is poking me to do a sequel for Afiladas Palabras y Deseadas - you see I take request for sequels very seriously. I had already thought about this - a sequel of TnT in Spain like in the beginning of part one - but because of the hints of Harbinger in part two, I was thinking of doing first a sequel with that episode in mind. I personally don't like the episode, but I have some ideas. Greatest problem: the breakfast conversation. :vulcan: :vulcan: Made me start a text analysis of that conversation (in my studies text analysis was always an important tool and of course context context context :lol: ) with surprising results. :lol: You will see, like to post my observations in a new topic, because I like some input.

I will end my "shameless" promotion of my ideas and fics, because I like to know the status of other writers: Dinah, Asso, Warpgirl, Honeybee, Bluetiger, Escriba, Alelou and other great writers: how are your fics going?

WarpGirl is STRESSED OUT! You see she gets stressed and talks in the 3rd person. She has been granted a five day extension by her loving mother, for that chapter of origional fiction she promised her loving mother because research into Imperial Russia IS NOT as easy as one would suppose. All because of a stupid DINNER PARTY. WarpGirl wants to scream about that.

However as soon as the deadline ends, and origional chapter is completed Karaoke AKA Five Tukers and A Vulcan Walk Into A Bar will be completed! That isn't nearly as much work.

After that WarpGirlwill prove to her SW's aquaintences she's back for business, so that will take time. BUT ch 5 of May We Together Become Greater Than The Sum Of Us will hopefully be written BEFORE her birthday in April.

All in all, WarpGirl's status is she has too much on her plate, and she was an idiot for taking so much on. But she is begging for positive thoughts, because she is working so hard.

PS I'm really not medically insane, but I thought writing in the 3rd person would make me laugh.

Take one fic at a time. Do a little research - write you first chapter - show it to your mother -do more research - polish your first chapter. Sending very positive thoughts to you. :D

Thanks for asking: I think (With Linda's help) my next chapter of "In the Hall of the Mountain King" will be up soon. And... I don't know... I think people will find it "peculiar". :lol:
Then... well! You will see. :D
Well yes. I continue to write. And on Fanfiction.Net, for those who want, it is possible to cast a glance at my latest efforts. We arrived to
The Ears of the Elves, chapter Forty-four


And here is the beginning of the whole story.

But, I must say, you could also find something else on Fanfiction.net written by me. If you want.

''In the hall of the Mountain King" has an almost fairytale-like, fascinating atmosphere. I am looking forward to chapter four. :D

I just finished chapter 12 of 'Command' and emailed it off five minutes ago.

I finished it in just twenty days; I think that's a record for me! After completing a chapter, I usually take a break from writing for a few days, and catch up on some of my reading.

LIAR! TELL THEM THE TRUTH!

Shhh... Go away! <laughs nervously> Uh, pay no attention to him, he's just my conscience. I usually just ignore him.

NOT THIS TIME YOU DON'T. YOU TELL THEM OR *I* WILL!

Okay, okay! I'll tell them.

NOW!

Right. Uh, the truth is, I don't catch up on my reading. Actually, I pull up the site every five minutes--

LIAR!

Uh, every two minutes, and check to see if my chapter is posted. It's pathetic, really.

AT LAST, THE TRUTH.

Then after it's posted, I check every two minutes--

LIAR!

Um, every thirty seconds. For comments. Then I read the comments over and over. Like a total dweeb without a life.

NOW, DON'T YOU FEEL BETTER?

<mumbles under breath> Damn conscience.

I HEARD THAT!
Very funny, Scotty. Now beam down my clothes.

If it helps, Transwarp, I'm not gonna be uploading any stories until I get home from work tonight, so you can give your refresh finger a rest 'til 5pm EST. ;)

Thank you, Transwarp! :lol: I'm glad your conscience finally let the truth be told. I tell myself I'm not going to look. There won't be anything new. I shouldn't leave the site up all the time; I shouldn't keep hitting "refresh." But I always do. It's so good to know that I'm not the only one. :thumbsup:

Yeah, me too. There is the problem of time zones. Early in the morning I am not going to find any new comments. Most of the people who commented are asleep - in their timezone. They wake up around 1 pm in my zone. :lol: This morning I commented as first at Bluetigers fic, but Transwarp was quicker. He lives almost in the same time zone.

OK I'm going to be the weird one, I don't constantly check my own work for comments. I'm terrified that if I do that, I'll take people's responses (or lack there of) way too personally. That said if I don't see a familiar name I worry. However, I do check the comments on my favorite authors constantly. I just love to see them get praise and helpful criticism. Looking forward to the new chapter Transwarp.
