S.O.S. for Disclaimer sequel
Oct. 16th, 2009 10:21 pmAlright, so the purpose for this post is three-fold.
I just wanted to give everyone a head's up. I finally stumbled onto an outline that I'm happy with for the full-on Disclaimer sequel. It is tentatively titled One Call and will pick up about a year and a half after the epilogue of the first story. The summary is as follows: One call can change your life forever. . .
Of course, the first reason I'm throwin' this out there is because (being as I'm pretty sure the whole of my flist has friended me because of this 'verse) I wanted to give you a teeny, tiny morsel of a taste for what's to come. Hopefully, it'll get you amped for the next installment - I know I am.
The second reason is that I wanted to let y'all know I don't intend to start posting this story until it's completed . I'll still post a chapter at a time, but I have learned that I have a tendency to slack off if I post before I finish writing. So it might be a little while before you see something new from me. (Unless, of course, some plot bunny scampers into my brain and insists on being played with for a minute or two.)
And finally, I have a request. Here's the thing - I'm really excited right now about writing this story, but it's a BIG undertaking. I refuse to sequelize any story unless I feel like it's going to be worthy of standing next to the original. This one is going to be different and it's going to take a lot of dedication and focus on my part.
Problem? I'm not so good with that sometimes - the focus and whatnot. So I guess I'm askin' for patience. And if I post up the occasional 'bitch, bitch, FML, whine, moan, bitch' post here, just remind me to suck it up and get back to work, alright? It's all about the tough love, guys, and I really, really wanna make this story worthy of the rest of the 'verse.
And that is all. Back to your regularly scheduled Friday night . . .

Date: 2009-10-17 06:45 am (UTC)Right now, I'm just excited to finally have a direction - I've been toying with an idea for awhile, but just couldn't come up with the vehicle in which to tell the story. Inside scoop: I just finished chapter one and I'm hating the fact that my eyes don't want to stay open to move on to chapter 2.
Just keep your fingers crossed that I can keep up the momentum and we should be good to go!
Thanks again for your support - it means the world to me!

Now..go go go! *feeds your muse pie!*
