Welcome to the spring/summer slump (I think).

In what seems to be a normal yearly event don't expect many (if any) postings to Stardust for a while. It seems to be normal for new story additions to the site to take a nose dive until the late fall on into winter.

I do know that there's another Julie O short story due shortly and she has started work on another part of the Coeds series.  Expect those two stories at least.

posting frequency and me...

Funny, I was just noticing this. I have quite a backlog of stories, that aren't new but would be new to STARDUST, but I didn't want to just dump them all here over the course of a few days and hog the front page. So I had set myself a limit of posting one of mine after nine others had shown up. But the waiting ("Come on somebody, post something so I can- Arrrrghhhh!") is frustrating, and now I think I'll relax that self-imposed rule, at least for a while. Maybe every tenth story or twice a month, whichever comes first? That seems fair. Last story I put up was a bit on the grim side, so today I'll post something lighter. Ideally---and eventually---I'll start submitting brand new stuff here, but oh god the writing is going slooooooooooooooow...
~~~hugs, Laika

(And the promise of new works by one of my absolute favorite authors is great news indeed!)

I've got a few bits of random nonsense posted over at BCTS that I could feasibly post over here. Again, I haven't posted much because I didn't want to crowd out the front page with me, me, me!

Burned out muse

Submitted by Danielle J on 2010, March 31 - 2:40pm.

I stopped writing DHCF for a few weeks because I was exhausted from my efforts of the last two months. Chapters 15-20 which I began working on around January 10th and completed March 15th, drained me to the point I needed a time out. Story research, 88,000 words written, edited, and formatted for publication in 9 weeks time. My muse needed a two-week breather.

At present I'm working on Part 21, and have a little over 10 pages typed.(My story chapter on average is 35-37 pages but can be anywhere from 30 to 60).

The 10th publication anniversary for my first TG fiction stories is coming up in June and July. I plan on re-posting those stories to here and BC. The first story is bad, the second all right I think, but in serious need of a proof reading.

Its all opposite to me :)

I have an Autum/Winter slump to look forward to, made all the more boring by not having anything to read on a cold miserable day. Thats what I pay for living in Australia, but everything else kicks butt, now what did I do with that library card.....
