Notice my new title for ramblings. So Exciting. NOT.
This is my super busy time of year. Not going to lie. Probably why it took me a month to update two fics I just posted updates for the last couple of days. I have one more to update that hasn’t been updated since October. That’s You Are the Light That’s Leading Me. I was going to work on it at work today but I discovered it’s not on my Word program there. I think I might have just called it “Stroke” there and I forgot to look for that. Ah well.
I left work a wee bit early today as I am supposed to get a couple of packages which contain Christmas presents and one I am required to sign for. They were supposed to be delivered yesterday, but that didn’t happen.
My house is decorated and that makes me very happy. I love Christmas. I wish I could write nothing but Christmas fics for the month of December but I feel like I have been too neglectful of my too many stories going as it is. So, that’s not going to happen. Just one this year and that’s the Holiday sequel to The Human Professor.
People are convinced I don’t know what I am talking about when I say I won’t do sequels now because they get no love and attention. The original story has 1246 Kudos. The sequel so far has 119.I think I know.

Christmas!! Woo! 🙂
I love sequels an insane amount. But you aren’t wrong. Sequels get less love than the original. In both traditional pub and in fanfic. Crazy though bc they should get allll the love. Especially yours

I love to read them too. Write them? Not so much. I end up too disappointed.

I don’t have any experience writing sequels but as a reader I enjoy them, maybe I am in the minority. I took your advice and am using sheet to keep myself on a schedule. I don’t know why I never used the app since it’s programmed on my phone.
I already have my Christmas Spirk idea in my head and completed the cover art but I have yet to put finger to keyboard. The wine is kicking in…

I think once people read a story they promptly forget it so they never look for a sequel, sad to say. Anyway I have learned my lesson

meant to say sheets… excuse my typos as I am being distracted by your Jim Kirk (William Shatner) pic.

I need to start a sheet to keep me updating in a timely matter.
Christmas!!! I have to clean the house before I can start putting decorations up. A snowman may go on the door before then though 🙂
For some damn reason, I have two Christmas fics in the works. I may post one December 1 to get my ass in gear to finish it in time for Christmas and the other will only be a few chapters (it started as a oneshot that got away from me again)
I do like sequels, writing them not so much.
