Thirteen

How did it happen?  I really have no idea, and yet, it was only half an hour ago. 

I figured out exactly how Possessions will end. 

Of course, I'm not going to give you all very specific details, but just know, I'm really excited.  I had been struggling with the fact that in order for this to end happily for Seto, Mokuba, Yami, and the others, the monsters will have to die.  And that, my dear readers, is a sad thought indeed.  I mean, how many of you want to see Krin, Kisara, and Kara die in the end?  I'm pretty sure that most of you like them, and I do too. 

And that was what I was having problems with.  How could it be a happy-ish ending if three of the main characters were killed? 

I figured it out. 

So, stick around for the next chapters.  Thirteen should be up some time around the end of this week, or the beginning of next.  After that, start looking for updates much more frequently.  Summer and all. 

Oh!  And the warning that I have been giving still stands.  Watch out.  The darkness is coming, and I'm not talking about just the beasts.  There will be some dark themes in chapters Fourteen and Fifteen.  I'm going to have to post warnings on those.  Remember:  This isn't really a upbeat story.

Possessions Twelve

I just finished typing Possessions Twelve.  Wow.  That took me way longer than it should have.  I wanted to explain why it only had one POV instead of the two I usually do. 

It is very simple.   Nothing is going on with Mokuba.  Basically, I had one scene in mind with him, and two chapters until something BIG happens with the younger Kaiba.  So I just made Seto's POV longer than usual, and I'm working on the next chapter now.  It isn't working for me right now. 

But just another reminder for anyone who didn't see the post with the warning.  Possessions is about to get very dark.  Not just in the sense that it will have more Dark monsters, but in the dark sense.  Things are about to get ugly.  And not very happy-making.  You've been warned.

Spanish

I couldn't update last night because of a stupid Spanish test today.  It is insane how hard some people find these tests.  I mean, the teacher gives you a list of questions, then you answer them, in Spanish of course, then just say them to her.  Why do people find this so difficult to do?

I scored perfectly, by the way. 

So, my birthday is coming up, and I am going to try very hard to update as a present to all of you.  It is like a reverse birthday or something.  But like I said earlier, I just need to type and edit it.

Picnic!

I went on a picnic today!  The weather was really nice, so we went out to a park for one of my best friend's birthday.  Other than getting a MASSIVE blister, I had a nice time.

But since I wasn't near a computer, I didn't get much writing done today. . .or yesterday.  And I left my notebook with Possessions Twelve in it back at my apartment, so I couldn't even type it up this weekend.  Hopefully, I will get that online within the week.  From the Dead - Four, that one will take a bit longer.  I am doing some serious revisions to that story.

Annoyed!

My internet service was disconnected for NO REASON!  I'm super annoyed about that, and that is the reason I haven't gotten to update anything for the past week.  I have the next chapters entirely written, but I need to type the up.  Without internet, I was so bored. 

Poor pioneers.  What did they do for fun?  Read?  Haha!

From the Dead

I just typed up and published the new chapter of FtD.  It amazes me how much my writing style has changed over the past few years.  You guys should seriously see the original-original draft of the story.  I still have it.  It is entirely handwritten in a notebook I call Blue Three.  It is so awful, I laugh reading it. 

But I really like this new chapter.  I've entirely changed the Seth-Seto dynamic, and now I feel that the story is going to make much more sense than it did originally. 

Also, I've always wondered if everyone understood the title.  From the Dead - as in, Seth is back from the dead, and so is "the villain."  (I'm not putting the name in case anyone hasn't read the old version) The sequel, Arose Power, is supposed to be a continuation of the first story's title.  So it ends up being read, From the Dead Arose Power.  Like, power came from someone who had died.  Make sense? 

I had a third one planned out too.  Without End.  So that would have made it, From the Dead Arose Power without End.  But I'm not going to write the third.  Oh well.

Back Again!

So, I've decided to start blogging again.  Mostly because I'm sick of typing up those little notes on my Fanfiction profile.  Also because the more I work on Possessions and talk with my reviewers, the more contact I want to have with them.  I've got Twitter, AIM, and now I'm back to Blogger. 

This time, I've even added a nice little set of pictures of myself.  Haha- I always wonder what authors look like, so I don't want to be hypocritical. 

A few words about Possessions:
Okay readers, I've got some news.  I don't know if I would call it good or bad, but it certainly is news.  Chapter Fourteen is going to be DARK.  So is Chapter Fifteen.  Yes, that is a pun, but also very true.  I hadn't expected the story to turn out this way, but just out of nowhere this wave of inspiration took over, and now I have an entirely different plotline.  But it is much, much darker.

I just thought I would give you fair warning.
