I set myself a goal to put up the next chapter of Ariana's story within a week, and damned if I didn't get it up with two days to spare.
[faints]
[calls male slaves over to revive her]
[gets distracted temporarily by male slaves' efforts]
[returns to senses and resumes speaking]
I'm not used to my processes working like this, where the processes produce product. I even like what I posted, and that never happens. Wonder what is making the difference.
Part of anything is being in the zone. I'm so *fed* *up* with working all the time, it's been a great recreation to hang out in HFDU in spare minutes.
More than that, though, could it be that the 11,000th time I was told to just frickin' relax already and write, you aren't Tolstoy, that's okay .... I actually listened?
Go figure.
Speaking of going, I want to throw my standard disclaimers in here. Hot Female Dominant Utopia is s/m fiction and not the cup of tea of everybody who is kind enough to visit this blog. The latest episode would be hard pressed to even get an R rating (crap! I just lost half the audience!), but the next one is going to be intense (whew! look, they came back!).
Our Story Thus Far:
Fictional Foundation
And So It Begins
Ariana's Scandal Part One: The Guidance
Ariana's Scandal Part Two: The Meeting
Ariana's Scandal Part Three: The Preparations
For people following along: Part Four is going to be a bitch to write. Oh it will be fun, wink wink saynomore, but narrating physical action is exactly my least favorite thing to do. I am so non-spatial. My goal is *two weeks* for that one. We'll see what happens.
Enjoy! And if you do enjoy, let me know. It's encouraging. :)

I ran over and read...simply fabulous! And you are going to make me wait 2 weeks for more? Sigh...
And who is the cutie pie?
Kate -
Vin Diesel, believe it or not. He's not usually my up of tea but that picture? Guh. I just labeled the post properly.
Now, thank you, blush. Thanks for reading!
As far as timing goes, I have *no* idea. Part four is completely plotted, but there is so much detail and action to put on paper (screen?), I have *no* idea how long it will take.
Plus, real life and a job and everything........
thank you!

No dead parrots, 'kay? I'm liking it so far (haven't read 3 yet, I will.)
And Vin. *SNARF* Someone I could literally eat right up over and over and over and over.

Oh god. I was hoping you'd read it and hoping you wouldn't at the same time. You're like a *professional* reader!
[reminds self it's just for fun]
Thanks for reading,

I *just* got the parrot joke.
[blush]
I'll be the one sitting in the corner with dunce cap for the rest of the day........
I'm enjoying the series a lot. Jos and I had an interesting conversation about the stories over dinner. (Sorry to be such a tease.)
I know what you mean with "physical action". That's my weak point, too. I find it easier to write such a scene in one go, though. If I get time to read it over again, I usually can't make it work.
