I'd like to apologize to everyone for not posting anything for a while.
I wish I had a good reason, but the simple fact of the matter is, I've had crushing writer's block for nearly two months. I've done a little work in all 3 stories I want to advance, but I open Word, i type maybe 2 paragraphs...and then I have no idea what to do next. It's like I just draw a total blank. My experience with this is to simply back off and wait until I get over it.
If you've ever written, you understand what I mean and how it works.
I really, REALLY wanted to have something to put by Christmas, but I just couldn't get anything finished. Hell, I couldn't even get a chapter halfway done.
To make up for it, in the next couple of days, I'm going to release some of the "failed" chapter ideas I've done over the years. That's when I write a test first chapter for a story to get a feel for it, but then shelve it because I can't develop the plot beyond the initial concept.
A couple of these you may recognize as elements of other stories. They're often the springboard on which other stories are launched, as I take an idea and rework it into something viable.
