10 - A new "undesirable classes" story coming soon.

Hey writers and readers of TBC,

after two long writing sessions today I am finally done with "A Tale Of Two Dolls".
It is the third story in my "undesirable classes" universe.

This time there will be more action again, but as the other two stories, it has a unique focus on itself.
Now I finished the raw version and edited it.
Meaning I checked for grammar and spelling mistakes to the best of my ability.
Usually, I post a story at this stage.

08 - The Drawback Of Being A Writer... (+ Flash Fiction)

Hey, TBC readers.

I know the title means different things to every writer. For me it is ideas. There are writers who hunt ideas desperately. I am desperate because I am hunted by ideas.

"Just how?" you might ask. Well, it is hard to concentrate on writing one serial or story and now and then ideas pop into your mind that bug the hell out of you. Every new idea I get there is this impulse to start writing it as a story. I am getting better at controlling said impulses, but it is no wonder I have about three dozen stories started and never finished.

06 - Why I have been absent lately ...

Hey everyone,

you might be wondering why I haven't posted anything in a while.

Well, currently I think the world has it out for me. It really wants to make me miserable.

You might know from my last blog entry that I have moved apartments.
While that was stressful, it was successful.
With one little holdup. My ISP took over a month to hook up my new apartment.

05 - A short update to my situation

Hey everyone,

I know it has been quiet around me lately.
The good news is that most of my work related troubles are resolved.
I am also nearly finished with my big move into a new apartment.

However, there is still one hurdle in my way.
Changing my landline (and DSL) will take two weeks.
So today will be the last day I have regular internet access at either home.
I should be back online on the first of March.

04 - Personal Entry - It's A Distraction Pileup

We all know those ugly crashes.
When a huge traffic accident happens and so many cars crash into each other that they start to pile up.
That's how my life currently feels like. Just with "distractions".

The least of them is work. The whole company is under pressure to finish a project on time.
That means overtime. While that doesn't prohibit me from writing, it does sap my creative juices and my will to write.

02 - No "The Lokian Way" This Weekend Either

Hey readers of TBC,

I must admit I am kind of in a bind.
Lately, my progress had been marginal and what I wrote I didn't like.

My usual bag of tricks doesn't help.
Tried to clear my head by writing flash fiction.
Now I have a dozen tiny stories but next to no progress on "The Lokian Way".

Writing the ending of a story is always hard for me. Not that the next part is the ending.
But it is very very close. Trying to make sure that every last detail is right can be exhausting.

01 - A delay in "The Lokian Way"

Hello readers of TBC,

I sadly have to say that there won't be a part 18 of "The Lokian Way" this weekend.
Although I nearly have reached my usual word count I will not upload what I have.

The reason is that this update will be one choke full of details about the past and the magic in Mercy's world.
I already wrote nearly all of Mercy's school trip to the wax museum of famous magicians.
However, the plan was it to pair up with Mercy's next trickster group meeting.
Sadly none of it I wrote yet.

Release Schedule For "The Lokian Way" Between The Holidays

Hey everyone,

here a quick update:
Silly me forgot that this Sunday and the Sunday after it will be right around the holidays.
As I come from Germany celebration takes place on the Christmas Eve and the 25th and 26th are more for visiting friends and family.
Therefore the next part of "The Lokian Way" will (probably) arrive on Wednesday the 27th.
Since Silvester night and new years are on Sunday and Monday part 17 will be out (probably) on the 2nd of January.

One year ago...

I hadn't planned to write a blog post today till I noticed something.
Exactly one year ago I published "A Jar Full Of Pixie". (Back then on Fictionmania)
My first story to be published.
And I must admit it feels a little special. Which is also strange.
I am at an age were birthdays lost their special meaning and today I have an anniversary I am actually proud of.
Over the last year, I wrote a lot.
Maybe less than I hoped for but also more than I thought I actually would manage.

Progress despite distractions (+story ideas)

Another Sunday and another update of "The Lokian Way". I was a bit worried I might not make it in time. Especially as I had been plagued by distractions the last two weeks. Turns out I shouldn't have been worried. This part was done on Wednesday. I could have kept my old schedule. Except not, as part 11 will be a little bigger I think.

Three hidden overlaying categories I wished someone had told me about ... (+Story Ideas)

Hey folks,

I know the title is a little clickbaity sounding, but I honestly can say that these categories eluded me for over a year. Resulting in frustration and even asshole behavior on my part. I am especially pissed of because the categories are appearing so obvious. Yet I somehow I took ages to figure them out and react to stories accordingly.

So what are they:

Progress and story ideas.

Hello everyone,

I hoped I would be more active the last two weeks. As always life gets in the way. Or to be more specific books and stories of authors.
My progress is already slow as I usually only write on my daily commute (by train mind you). That time is contested by books to read and the last two weeks they have won. Which I don't mind as they are a great way to inspire yourself.
