A sorta big announcement thingy
Some things for you to fill your belly with:
*GOOD! I got a call on my way home, we get to keep our current schedules… even though my boss is INSANE, she does look out for us and has already arranged for us to be exempt from the requirement. Awesome!!!
*GOOD! I had some sex last night. It’s about damn time. It’s been like… a month or something.
*Bad! My knees is fucked up for real. I looked at it last night I realized that it’s REALLY swollen. Like double the size of the other one. The pain has changed from an outward sort of "soreness" like a pulled muscle to an internal ache. I have no idea what it is, but Baboo wants me to go to the Dr. I, of course, do not want to go. I’ve been living with this dumb pain for almost 2 months now, if you can believe it. *sigh*
I need to go. Maybe I’ll call and see if they have an appt for me on Monday. *sigh*
*Bad! I have to get up and do some laundry or some shiz. I don’t want to. booo
*Good! I have the next 4 days off. Twill make me happy.
*Good! I have lots of inspirations to write and write and write. So I hope I do that.
*Bad! I have been advised to STOP posting my stories here. I’m sad about it, but I sorta agree. How would I know if someone stole my shiz and tried to sell it? I wouldn’t. I don’t read every book that’s ever been published. I’ve posted a couple full length novels in this diary. it would be life destroying to have someone take those and possibly profit from them…. and I’d probably never know about it.
So… that leads me to a this annoucement:
I will no longer post my stories in my OD.
I just can’t.
I will open up my writing to those who wish to have the stories sent to them via email. In that vein, I can at least keep track of who is reading my works. Someone could STILL take it and steal it, but I will be limiting my readers to those who I trust or who I can feasibly track. I may start a facebook page for my writing so that once I start self publishing, I can have an avenue to make others aware of it.
I don’t know.
So… as of now, no NEW stories will be posted. I will more than likely put up the rest of BBD… but I might not. Identity is going to be cut off. If you are interested in that story, let me know and I will add you to a "novel mailing list" that I will be creating.
Anyway, it’s really only because I’m finally getting serious about publishing and it gets a bit tricky when you have your stories on blast for the world to see. I know i may even have some lurkers who want to read my stuff. I appreciate that, but I have to know who you are now.
I’m a lurker. I lurk a lot. lol. *CREEPY CREEP DANCE*
Sometimes peopel intimidate me… or I don’t know what to say… so I don’t note, but I love to read. I hate when they go favs only or start withdrawing because I have no way of reaching out without looking like a scary stalker person.
Oh well.
Don’t feel that way with me. I welcome people reading my stories, that’s why I write them. I just know that I want to do more, so that means I have to start getting more cautious and aware and protecting it so that it can be produced from it’s source and not from someone who might recognize a good story and try to steal it from me.
anyway… was that a big announcement? Should that have been it’s own entry?
blah.
I’ll be talking about it more later. but if you’re reading now and want to be on the list, then let me know. give me your email. Let me read your diary. It’s only fair. lol.
Ok, I need to go see what my children are doing and harvest some food in cafe world.
lol.
i’m such a dork.

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR LAST WORDS? Ok sorry for being dramatic but seriously, I’ll be sad, and I’ll e-mail you and stalk you to get zombie updates. I’m glad you got some sex! Definitely go to the doctor, knee issues are serious.
Warning Comment
I had better be on the email list!
Warning Comment
Well.. Yay on keeping the work schedule at least.
Warning Comment
I TOTALLY a lurker. I don’t ever know what to say either.
Warning Comment
Reg. posting your stories = I was thinking the same thing. Could you set your storie entries to “friends only”? I def. want you to email me your Blue Blue Dress updates cause I’m in love with the story. I just started reading your vampire one (I don’t remember the name) but it’s so graphic sometimes it makes my stomach flip around, lol.
Warning Comment
I don’t always read your stories but they are really good and I am sad that you probably have to stop posting b/c some idiot might steal your work. But on the flip side, I do hope you get published, I hope so very much!

Dude, go get that knee checked out. It could be something like….gout..OMG!….go get it checked. I have thought about putting some of my writing up here, but I am scared. Hell, just having ‘Ghosty’ up is pretty scary.
Warning Comment
Wait…what about ZOMBIE DIARY?! Are you going to stop posting that?! 🙁
Warning Comment
yay! glad u’ve been satisfied, it’s about time! lol I agree, this world is full of thiefs and untrustworthy people, even more so on the net so I think not puting them here would be a great choice, I hate not being able to share stuff because ppl steal. I really hope u get ur knee looked at and get it feeling better. Hope u have a great weekend with ur fam! 🙂
Warning Comment
HA! Man…even I didn’t think you were gonna say that! Who advised you against posting your stories on OD? I’ll still read them, whenever. (I wouldn’t steal your stories anyway. If I’m gonna use a story for something, then I like to use my own works! I like to apply my own personal words to it!) So yeah, you’d have no worries with me! But, I know other people’d be bad enough to do it! Sorry
Warning Comment
your knee is hurting you again. The swelling of it would freak me out! (But, going to the doctor would also freak me out about it too, cause you just always fear what they might find or not!) So, I understand it to that extent. Glad ya got your sexins! A month! Wow! Geeze! And, I think that’ll be all! Lol.
Warning Comment
Lurk away!! ; )
Warning Comment
I want to keep reading your stories!
Warning Comment
your awesome…
Warning Comment
So long as you continue to post Last Words I’m good 🙂

HI I guess I’m a semi-lurker… So, yeah, knee pain, been there done that – NOT Fun. Hope the doctor finds it to be a small problem and you get it taken care of instantly.
Warning Comment
HI AGAIN! (I’m the Semi-lurker, from the Oil Spill Village) I enjoy reading your material so, please add me to your mailing list. My email is: buck.pacer@gmail.co; and my real name is Jack. And my diary is kinda boring, but I like my friends to read it. I do put it all out here, even the embarrassing shit. Because I believe if I hold back out of fear of what people might think, then I DO HAVE problems!
Warning Comment
I hope you get things taken care of for your knee!!! Good luck. <3 Bummer about your stories no longer being on OD, but it is a very good point. Get that stuff copyrighted first! 😉
Warning Comment
So I thought you were gonna say you heard from the publisher or that your divorce went through. Bummer…
Warning Comment
Its like a Congratulations and Booooooo at the same time. I’m happy that they are worried that someone might want to steal your stuff so they would have to stop you from posting it. You you, saftey and all. But, keep going, its worth the effort.
Warning Comment
Hi, Sorry- just noticed that my email address above (4th Note above) for buck.pacer@gmail.com was missing the “m” at the end. I figured you’d get it right; but then again, you might have thought it was just a special version of gmail. I know, I’m an idiot…

Swollen knee equals ice and tensor bandage. That’s what the doc will start by saying. You might want to take motrin or advil to reduce the swelling as well. He might recommend physical therapy, but that costs money yo. so once the swelling goes down, flex the knee as much as you’re able. All the time. Dr. Blue, in da howse!
Warning Comment
i’m so glad you’re getting serious about publishing your work!
Warning Comment
Another lurker here. 🙂 I do a lot of lurking too, for the exact same reasons you said.
Warning Comment
I FOR REAL thought you were going to say you’d heard from the publisher or courthouse! Wootness for sexins, inspiration, and Thurfridays! I agree that you should at least lock down your stories in private. Especially if you’re turning pro. I also agree with Baboo that you go to the doctor. Your knees ain’t nothing to play with.
Warning Comment
Has someone actually copied some of your stuff?
Warning Comment
Thats how we met when I went faves only I think. Go to the doctor yo. *hug*
Warning Comment
:/ I know how that goes. Its why I don’t post anymore of my writing…
Warning Comment
That certainly makes sense with your stories, and you’re certainly good enough to get published, methinks. And yes… you should go to the doctor to get your knee looked at…
Warning Comment
makes sense woman. If someone stole your stuff.. I think I would have a cardiac.
Warning Comment
good luck with the writing dream!
Warning Comment
I am totally a lurker! Glad to know I’m not the only one, lol.
