My Stories


So everyone talks about their WIP (work in progress) like it's possible to write only one thing at a time. Those people are something else.
Me, on the other hand, am writing FOUR different things right now. Two of which run alongside each other. Not the two you probably would assume. I actually have a fifth story that may or may not merge with one of the existing series (it's in the same universe, but located elsewhere) so there's that too. PLUS, I write short stories for contests. Busy busy crazy lady.

Another problem is, I've got a sixth idea floating around in my head, all thanks to a scentsy bar mixing experiment. It's... strange how my brain works. It'd be about a carnival, but I'm saying no more. Or else I might start writing it in earnest. Ahhh.

I've got two Sailor Moon inspired stories (one that is based on a dystopian edition of our world (Eternal Platinum), one that's just used to having random monster attacks occurring (Gloriously Damaged)), one about a really confused android (I am Early), one about what can happen if the right and wrong people are able to remember certain past lives and the ambitions behind them (this one doesn't have an official title yet, but I've been calling it "And Again"... Meh), as well as a story that's based off of Battle Royale, but takes place on the moon, it goes alongside the Sailor Moon story that's based on our reality in a really lousy future. No title for that one yet.

And now I have that carnival idea. Which I want to work on, and it already has characters forming in my head, and a plot, and ugh. Am I insane? I mean, probably. But how crazy is it to work on six stories simultaneously? Especially when you'll be updating at least two of them as serial novels online??

I feel sorry for whoever I wind up getting as an agent or publisher or whatever. Either they'll love that I have a million ideas, or beg me to slow down. The problem is, this is how my brain works. It's always going in a million directions, and USUALLY I can't follow everything. But no one can stop me from writing. Muah hahaha.

Ahem.

Good luck, to me!
