Today has been a good day. · 7:54am Aug 29th, 2013
Today has been a very good day for me, for a number of reasons.
Firstly, though this is a few days late, I've reached the 250 followers milestone! Many thanks to Rainbowinabox for being number 250.
Next up is going to be 300, and I may have to do something special for that.
Secondly, and of far greater significance to me at the moment is the fact that after 22 stories, I've finally managed to hit the feature box. It's taken time and a number of 'almost but not quite' stories, but I've made it. And with a story that is about a M/M pairing no less.
In just under 12 hours, An Upside Down Love Triangle has garnered a 4:1 like/dislike ratio, 71 faves and a place on the featured list.
Funny how often it is that it's the stories you don't spend as much time on that do the best. Many thanks to Bronystories for the story ideas and for being a sounding board for some of the earlier ideas. And of course thanks are due to everyone who has read and liked the story.
And the last piece of good news is that a few days ago, the results of an interview I did were posted up. If you have ever wanted to find out a little more about me, why I started writing, how I got into the fandom, etc, then you should go and have a look HERE.
Now for a few more mundane updates.
The next chapter to Undead heartstrings II is almost finished and I hope to have that checked over and ready to be published by the end of the weekend. Sorry that it seems to be taking a while; I've been snowed under trying to get a few competition entries finished.
I'm going to be away from an internet connection for a few days between now and then though. I've got a few days booked at a nice beach house and though it is just coming to the end of winter and the weather is still cold and raining, you do not get between an Australian and his beach. This house is also where I wrote the first three chapters to my first published story, so it is kind of a writing spot for me.
I think that is about all for this blog update.
Please enjoy the remainder of your day/night or whatever time it is locally. For me, it's dinnertime and a leftover Butter Chicken with Naan and Rice is calling my name.
Today has been a short day. Not even two hours yet
Congrats, man.

Congratulations on making it to the feature box! I haven't read your story, and I probably won't since I'm absolutely not into clop at the moment, but I've enjoyed reading the interview; I was especially impressed by the multitude of stories you have planned or already started. You sure are active as hell!
