Cora, whose praises I often sing, managed to beta the entire story and return it to me this morning so we have clear sailing through the rest of the month to finish posting on schedule. Seriously. I’ve had a ton of a beta readers before, but she’s the best.

All I Want For Christmas – Part Four is now online. A quick glance at the schedule for the final half of the story:

Part Five – 20 December 2014
Part Six – 24 December 2014
Part Seven – 27 December 2014
Part Eight & Epilogue – 31 Dec 2014

I’ve tried to set it up so that the updates correspond to the same day of the month they take place in the story . Because I’m a complete dork.

I’m going to skip posting The Best Thing this week. I’m working on Chapter 17, and I’m stuck on the way it’s supposed to unfold. It’s not working the way it did in my outline, so I have to revisualize it, and I got a little stuck. I took a break for a few days to come back with a fresh mind, but I don’t want to run out of chapters. I’ll post the next chapter on Christmas Eve 🙂

I finished the outlines for Burn in Heaven and Mad World and broke them down into rough chapter outlines. They’re both ensemble stories so I’m trying to make sure they’re pretty balanced. Once I do the same for These Small Hours, I’ll be posting the first chapters from Burn in Heaven, Mad World, These Small Hours, and Feels Like Home (Tangle re-write) so you guys can vote on what’s going to be next after The Best Thing and All We Are.

On the subject of All We Are, I’ve added a small snippet from Chapter One 🙂

And hey! Comments are free and easy. If you like the chapters, feel free to take a few seconds and tell me 🙂
