I come bearing three brand  new chapters today! Chapter 12 of Revelations has now been posted, as has Chapter 8 of Fine, Fine Line. Some pretty big stuff happens in both of these chapters, so be prepared!

Now, I know that I said I wasn’t planning on writing You Irritate Me for quite awhile, but an opportunity to start it has presented itself. Over at the JSOR boards, I brought up how everyone seemed to be in somewhat of a winter writing slump, and one of the users suggested something called “Fix the Winter Slump!” where those of us who are participating are giving each other private feedback on the story we’ve chosen to work on. I could have kept this story quiet until this little challenge was over, but decided to post what I’m working on as a sort of preview. Based on the feedback I get, I might be doing some rewriting, but please go take a look at it. I’m not planning on changing the plot, so let me know what you think of what’s up so far. I had an absolute BLAST making the new layout for it (with a little help from Brittney lol) and I’m really excited to write this story.

Thank you so much to Brittney for signing the guestbook after the last update!

Well, I’m finally back with an update! I’d really wanted to give you guys a new chapter of both Revelations and Fine, Fine Line, but only have one of Revelations ready to go. But, Chapter 11 is up, so please go check it out! It’s a long one and I really apologize for the long wait, Revelations readers!

I’m trying to get Revelations wrapped up because I can’t WAIT to start working on You Irritate Me regularly. I keep getting ideas for it and I’m so excited, but no chapters of that will be posted until after Revelations is finished. I have too many irons in the fire already! There’s a new story on the “Coming Soon” page called Starter in case you’re curious about a story I’ll probably write this spring or summer.

I have to say an enormous thank-you to everyone who voted for my stories at the Fool’s Banquet Awards! I won six in total and I’m so excited about it! Here’s how it all wound up:

Winner
Bad Solution (Best Plot Twist)- Damn It
Take My Time (Best Opening Scene)- Revelations
Devil’s Nachos (Best Line/Quote)- Revelations, Chapter 9

Runner-Up
My Favorite Shoes (Best Hanson Brother)- Zac in Damn It
People Want to Be Us (Best Couple)- Zac & Esme in Damn It
One More Day (Best Sequel)- Fine, Fine Line

I was so happy to see that several of my stories won awards. I’m really thankful to those of you who voted for me! I promise to keep writing in return!

Thanks to Katie, Mrs. Zac Hanson (::cough::Becca::cough::), Becky, and Tracy for signing the guestbook!

Merry Whatever-Holiday-You-Celebrate! I hope that everyone is having a wonderful holiday season. I personally can’t wait for New Year’s Eve, my favorite holiday of the year. Yay!

Chapter Seven of Fine, Fine Line is now posted! I was so happy to see how many people came back to read FFL after its looooong hiatus! It’s really wonderful to read the comments and have the support, honestly.

Chapter Thirteen of Where I Belong was posted on last Saturday by Becca, so check that out and let us know what you think as well!

There are a few days left to vote at the Fool’s Banquet Awards! Be sure to go vote for your favorite stories from this year! There are a lot of great stories nominated, so go check it out and put in your two cents!

Thanks again (SO MUCH) to Diana, Becky, Becca, Katie, Daiana, Mel, Alissa, and Kristy for signing the guestbook. You guys are amazing!!

It’s the return of Cameron! I’m so excited to post a new chapter of Fine, Fine Line tonight! It’s an intense chapter, but I’m just so glad to be writing her story again! Enjoy!

Becca will be posting Chapter 12 of Where I Belong later this evening, so look at that as well! I’m still working on Revelations, but don’t have an update of that at this moment. I put up a new layout for Damn It, which has a link to it’s follow-up story for Becca’s 25 Days Of Christmas. I think it’s a nice layout and I’ll probably leave that as it is from now on. I just thought that it deserved a nice layout now that it’s all finished and will be doing one for Tumbling Down sometime in the near future as well.

Also, nominations at the Fool’s Banquet Awards close tonight, so get in your last minute nominations and thanks again to whoever nominated my stories for all of those categories! It’s impossible for me to express how much I appreciate all of the support!

From now on, I’ll be updating the site once a week on either Saturday or Sunday. It’s my hope that by doing this, people will know when to check in to see if a new chapter of anything has been added. There will be obvious random exceptions, but for the most part, check in on the weekends now for updates.

Thanks to Brittney for signing the guestbook! Please let me know what you think of this new chapter of FFL! I’m dying to know what you guys think!

-Nat

Soooo! I wrote a continuation of Damn It for Becca’s 25 Days Of Christmas!! And, it’s my day for posting, so it’s up now! Go check that out! You’ll get a little glimpse into Zac and Esme’s future. Please check it out if you were a fan of the story. I hope it will sate you all since I’m not writing a sequel lol.

I also just posted Chapter 10 of Revelations, so if you’re following that story, please go check that out! Chapter 11 of Where I Belong was posted on Saturday as well.

I’m hoping to have an update of Fine, Fine Line for next week, so look forward to that! I want to get back into this story so badly and I can’t wait to start writing Cam again. I’ve missed her.

In some super exciting news, my stories have gotten a bunch of nominations at Brittney’s Fool’s Banquet Awards! Thanks so much to whoever nominated me! Nominations are still going on for about another week or so, so go see if your favorite stories from this year have been nominated and if they haven’t, fill out a nomination form and make sure they get on the ballot! There are some wonderful stories nominated already, so go take a peek.

Thanks so much to Brittney, Hayley, Cindy, Amber, and Diana for signing the guestbook!

I didn’t win NaNo. But, I did get halfway there, which, considering the fact that I lost almost two weeks of writing time due to holiday and work obligations, I’m not too horribly disappointed with myself. I got halfway done with the word count and halfway done with the story. So yes, Chapter 9 of Revelations is now posted. It’s a long chapter, but something pretty important happens in it, so please let me know what you think!

I know that some people probably have a problem with this story based on its content, and I understand that. But if you’d just give it a chance, I think you’ll see that it’s not a slash story. I’m trying my very hardest to make it much more than that, and to make it as funny as possible. Because let’s be honest… I love writing comedies. I guess I just wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone who’s been giving this story a chance during NaNo and I hope that you’ll keep up with it now that updates of it might not be so frequent.

Well, now that NaNo is officially over, I’m going to keep working on Revelations but will also start working on Fine, Fine Line again. In celebration of that fact, I made a few layout for FFL and put it up, so go check that out. No promises as to when the next chapter of that will be posted, but hopefully soon!

Thanks so much to Brittney for signing the guestbook!

Well, Chapter 8 of Revelations is now up! I wish I could say that I’ve made a ton of progress on the story in the last few days, but I went home for Thanksgiving and honestly didn’t write a word. So, I’ll be busting my ass as much as possible for the next several days trying to get it finished. But anyways, this chapter is more lighthearted than the last, so I think you’ll all enjoy it.

Becca posted Chapter 10 of Where I Belong on Saturday. Something very crucial happens in this chapter, so be sure to go check it out and to let us know what you think.

Thanks so much to Brittney and Becca for signing the guestbook!

Well… due to some work requirements, Chapter Seven of Revelations was much delayed, but is now posted! I’m quite a bit behind with NaNo right now, but am still plugging along. If I don’t make it, it won’t be for lack of trying, that’s for sure. I’m very pleased with the story so far, and that’s really important to me. So for the most part, I’m happy, but a little stressed by the fact that I’m currently about 12,000 words behind where I should be. Oopsies. Life gets in the way sometimes, unfortunately. But anyways! Enough of my whining! Please check out Chapter Seven. It’s not terribly exciting, but it is important and there’s some more interaction with Taylor and his brothers about the situation at hand.

Becca posted Chapter Nine of Where I Belong yesterday, so check that out as well!

Thank you so much to Misti and Brittney for signing the guestbook after the last chapter!

-Nat

Well… I’ve been doing okay on the NaNo front. I’m quite a bit behind where I wanted to be, so I’m a little frustrated with that, but I’m not frustrated with Revelations. The feedback I’ve been getting so far has been absolutely wonderful and very supportive. It’s very nice to hear that people are enjoying it since I was a bit nervous to post it. Writing it has been very fun. I’m really enjoying all of the characters… they’re feeling like caricatures of personalities and I’m loving it so far. That’s pretty much all I have to say at this point. Chapters 1-5 are now up and I hope to get at least Chapter 6 up by the end of today as well. Thank you so much for taking the time to follow this story!

And, a special thank you goes out to Katie, Brittney, Daiana, Maria, Amber, and Misti for signing the guestbook since I started posting Revelations. You guys are awesome !:)

Well, I’m a big tool and forgot to post here last night. My bad. I’ve started Nanoing (which I have just deemed a verb, btw) and have posted the first chapter of Revelations!!! This story is already shaping up to be quite the doozy lol, so please be sure to check it out! I’ll be posting chapters as I write them, and then after November I’ll go back and fix any inconsistencies that I find, confusing wording, etc. But, I want you all to know what I’m doing, so I’ll be sharing it with you as I write. I don’t want to have to update here every day, so just check back regularly for updates! Yayyy NaNo!

Due to my NaNo participation, Fine, Fine Line is going on hiatus until December, which in reality is probably a good thing. I need some time to really sit down and think about how to approach things after the big blow-out in the last chapter (sorry to leave you with a big cliffhanger for a month!)  so it is the best that it can be. It’s not gone, and I will be finishing the story, but it just has to take a backseat for the sake of Revelations right now.

Becca and I have written enough of Where I Belong to keep updating during November, so keep checking out that site as well!

I have a new affiliate, Hayley! If you aren’t already familiar with her work, please go check it out! It’s great!

And finally, thank you so much to Becca, Becky, Jenny, Chelsi, Foxtrot, Katie, and Daiana for signing the gbook after the last chapter of FFL. I was really nervous to post it, so thank you for letting me know what you think. And don’t be afraid to let me know what you think of Revelations. It’s amusing me so far, and I hope it amuses you guys, too!
