How are you all doing?
I’ve been chipping away at A Lightened Path Home although writing doesn’t go as fast as I am used to. I’m often questioning myself and oh boy, you have a lot of alternative scenes to look forward to because at one point I scrapped nearly 2000 words of a chapter because it wasn’t going anywhere!
Last week I posted chapter 9 and chapter 10 will go up next Wednesday. My aim is to have this story complete by the end of this year because I really hate WIPs.
I rarely participate in challenges/contests because it adds some pressure and I usually get a bad case of writer’s block. However, I somehow managed to promise that I would participate in a Halloween contest over at BetterInTexas – while we don’t even celebrate Halloween in my country! Yeah. A spooky story…
I don’t do spooky, but even I was amazed by what came out of my hands for this contest. It’s a Twilight/The Originals story featuring Bella and Kol called Oops! and it’s not as straightforward to how I usually write. But I did it. It’s a little over 6000 words (pesky word limit!).
And guess what? I tied in the contest for third place! Whoop! Congrats to everyone who participated, though. It was fun!
And I guess you all want to read it now, don’t you?
I could keep it to myself.
But I’m a nice person.

Now, I may, or may not, have plans for this story.
Until next time,
