The story is officially completed!

Well, the time has come, readers. My novel is officially complete. I don't know exactly how many of you have been reading it, but I really appreciated how long you stuck by me and how far you read, nevertheless. It means that not ALL of my efforts to write were in vain, so I thank you for that. Completing this novel was a big accomplishment for me, being that it is the first novel I've written with my own characters. Not a fan fiction. I've done some fan fiction novels before, but this really meant a lot for me to complete since my own characters and story world are very close to my heart and have grown on me over the past three years, which took me THAT long to write the whole thing, but now, fourty chapters later, I couldn't be prouder.

This isn't the end for me. In fact, it's only the beginning. I have plans to write a sequel someday in the near future, but don't know when that will be. Until then, I intend on working on some short stories, maybe some random scenes. I have shelves and shelves of writing books just sitting around collecting dust filled with lots of writing exercises, just stuff to spark a random story, so I'm looking to put them to use now. Some might be posted at FictionPress.com, some in my character journals at InsaneJournal.com and others might be in here, so you can check back here too.

But back to the novel. Here are the final four chapters:

Chapter Thirty-Six ("Mr. Right or Mr. Right Now?"):

Introducing FictionAmy Radio...

Incase you haven't already heard, I've created a Pandora station specifically designed and tuned for my fictional world. It's called "FictionAmy Radio" and it features potential songs for current and up and coming stories. Songs that inspire me to write, to create characters, and that fit with my characters relationships and their personalities, and others that would work for certain kinds of scenes. Out of boredom, I've taken it upon myself to create a blog especially for my station: http://fictionamyradio.blogspot.com . I've also come up with a fun day-to-day/weekly activity. From time to time, I'll be posting a collection of new song additions to my station and a description of the type of scene I envision them in. The link to the station is in the new blog, but if you're too lazy to go there now, here it is again. ;) :

Hope you enjoy it!

In the next update to this blog, I'll be giving you more insight into all my characters to help you get to know them a little bit better. Stay tuned. :)

Yet another update to apologize for being MIA...

Yeah, I know, I know. I should of updated this thing a long time ago, and for that, I'm so, so, sorry. If you haven't been checking FictionPress.com, then you probably haven't noticed that I've posted four new chapters since then. You can visit any of the past links I've posted to access them, or just the story page in my profile.

I'm half-way through Chapter 31, and will try to update this more. Keyword: TRY. I'm going to start posting short stories and scenes here too very soon. As soon as I get a break from writing. So please stay tuned.

Until next time, later!

<3 Always,
Amy

Update on why I've been MIA...

I just wanted to let you guys know that my computer is infected...again, so I might not be online for a while. Some fucking spyware infected it so now I have to go and pay ANOTHER 200 bucks to get it fixed at Best Buy, after they just finished fixing it like two weeks ago. I don't know what to do, but I do know that I'm going to be really depressed from now on.

I've been meaning to work on the next chapter of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Bane, but I haven't gotten around to it because of all of this drama. I'm really sorry. I still really, really want to finish it but without a working computer, I can't. I promise that I'm going to get it done some time, some day. I have my mind set on it. I just need to get this drama out of the way first. I promise you, I will update as soon as I possibly can.

Please stay with me here. Please pray my computer gets fixed. Again, I'm so sorry.

Change of plans...

Change of plans, it's gonna take me another day or so to finish proof-reading the chapter. Sorry. =( I blame myself for making it so long and being a perfectionist at the same time.

It should be up by Thursday, late Thursday night probably. Promise!

XOXO

Update on Chapter Twenty-Six...

Just wanted to make another update to let you guys know that I'm about 90-95% done with Chapter Twenty-Six. :D About 22 pages worth. I know that when I reach between 25-32 pages, it's time to wrap things up. ;) If I can't do that then I know its come up with a plan of action to split up the scenes into two chapters.

Anyways, I should be done either tonight or tomorrow. Then should have it posted by Monday, Tuesday at the latest.

Hope you enjoy it! I worked my ass off to get it done after a long overdue update.

XOXO
Lates!

I'm alive! I'm alive! So sorry!

I am so, so, so, SO unbelievably sorry! I know I've neglected to post about "DJAMB," and for that, I apologize greatly for keeping you waiting, those of you who read it on FictionPress and were linked to this page.

Things have definitely been hectic with me lately. I haven't had much time to write lately because of work with the holiday season and black friday and everything. *rolls eyes* I hate this time of year. Plus...I haven't been on the computer much lately, which I usually do when I'm upstairs in my room, because for the past few weeks, I realized that we have a mouse, or MICE in our house and haven't gotten much sleep or had much motivation to do other things like work on my latest chapter, but I am slowly but surely catching up. The exterminator is coming tomorrow and hopefully we'll be able to get this all taken care of and get those little sons of bitches out of our house once and for all.

Never fear though, as far as writing goes, I've found a new and productive way to get things done without being burdened by the fear of mice or anything else. I recently got an iPhone and have a writing app called "Writing Nook" on it that enables me to work on my chapter and type it into the device/app then email it to myself to add to my word processor later. So things are definitely going to be progressing faster now that I can write anywhere, anytime. :D

As far as Chapter Twenty-Six, I'm half-way there. The first scene/part is done, now I'm working on the second. Right now, I'm looking at 50% to go. So yeah, it's about 50/50 right now. I'll be done soon and I'll post when I am.

Hope you're all still reading. XOXO

Update on Chapter Twenty-Five...

I know it's been a while since I updated this bitch, but I completely forgot about it. Things got a little busy with mid-terms & TV show premieres and work, but I have good news. :) I'm about 75-80% done with Chapter Twenty-Five.

I've been hard at work on it, so if you don't hear anything back from me for a while, don't worry, it's not because I'm super busy with other things. Chances are, I'm still writing. :D And I always am, no matter what happens.

The chapter will be finished soon. When? Well, I'm hoping to have it posted by the end of the month so if I can gaurantee you anything, it's that. Thanks for reading! I'll post again soon. Later!

XOXO

http://www.fictionpress.com/s/2479688/24/Dr_Jekyll_and_Mr_Bane

I intend on starting the next chapter either tomorrow night or Wednesday. As always, I'll keep you posted on my progress. ;) Love ya all!

XOXO

Long-overdue update...

I know I haven't updated this for a long ass time and for that, I'm sorry. It's been kinda hectic lately with work, school & my birthday, but I've still had time afterwards to get some work done on the next chapter and have been working hard at it.

You'll be happy to know that as of right now, I'm about 80% done. Almost there!

Next update will be the chapter itself, unless something comes up, but it probably won't. Love you all! Be patient.

xoxo

Chapter Twenty-Four is in progress...

Hey guys!

I just wanted to drop an update to let you know that I've started on Chapter Twenty-Four. I started on it this weekend. It's coming along...slowly...but I'm working on it. As soon as I get past this first part, I should be making more progress. I'm just struggling with..."something." Don't ask me what. I'm not telling. ;) You'll just have to wait and see.

If you honestly want to know the truth about how much progress I've made so far...well, I hate to say it, but I'm only 5% done. Like I said though, as soon as I get past this first initial part, it's smooth sailing from here. Not to worry.

I'll check back in with you all soon!

XOXO
