Epilogue 1 - Andrea and the Original Dream

So it has been a long time since I first promised it, but the project simply grew in size like I wasn't expecting. Now however I can share the first major part in the ending, which I'm calling an epilogue simply to distinguish it from my more "conventional" stories.

This is the first story, and it details the path I had been planning on taking for a long while. It ends where I had planned to end the series. This path is the one Lea's story had been started for, but this stands alone if you haven't read that fragment. I had vague notions of where people went after this, but I wanted to end the story here since for years this was where I planned to leave it. The "Original" as I dumb it.

Going forward now I should have one more story of roughly this size, maybe a little less. That will show the alternate path I was coming up. I may also share some of the other ideas for alternate paths I came up with but no promises on how much. I'll also share the partial story (though much fuller than Lea's) I had been working on.

So now without further introduction:

Part 24* - Lea and the Recovery (Unfinished)

This is the start of what would have been a the next chapter in the series. This picks up with Lea and sets her back on a path to getting better. This was one of the parts I found hard to write. Maybe it's the subject matter, I was caught between not wanting to "cheapen" what Lea was going through but also not having an easy time writing the depressive melancholy. I have put parts of myself (or parts I wish I had) in many of my characters, and maybe this was just too close to home. I don't know, but it's been sitting unpublished for some time and I had even written out an outline for the rest of the story to try to drag myself forward without a lot of progress. I won't be doing the normal PDF download for this, unless someone asks. Anyways, enjoy a brief glimpse into Lea and her RV adventuring:

New Short Story: Deep Cover Engagement

So, I was going through some forums and came across a story contest being held over at Gromet's Plaza. The topic was a crime fighting woman, and rather quickly an idea came to mind. So I wrote out a quick story on it, I maybe could have gone longer but I tried to keep it short since the story contest specified a maximum of 6,000. I still went way over that amount, and had to edit down the story quite a bit removing whole scenes to make it fit.

So I wanted to also post the story here in its fullness. I have no idea when/where the contest is happening, but I'm not going to link to it cause I don't want to try to funnel people from here to vote there and throw the fairness off. I sometimes find a random topic like this can be a change of pace that is good for resetting the mind. I'm sure many would prefer this be a story about the main girls, but it's just its own thing all on its own. Hope you enjoy:

A Halloween Story

So I decided to make a submission for this year's Gromets Plaza's Halloween Story special. It has nothing to do with the rest of my stories, it is just a short, stand-alone story involving some fantastical elements that would never work in the main series. I have not abandoned my series, this was just a side adventure for myself.

Part 11 is still coming along but in the mean time here's a little story some of you may enjoy. Click here to download the PDF, or click "read more" to see it directly. Happy Halloween!
