This story began as a NaNoWriMo 2012 work, with no planning, and even less idea of plot.
I learned from that experience that I am not a 'pantser' -and spent about 20 painful months trying to turn my stream-of-consciousness 3-stories-in-one into one coherent novel, following the timeline and events in the Book of Genesis. I discovered that that is not a great way to build a plot. I ended after 5 more drafts, at about 60k words. There is another draft on my blog, slightly longer, a bit more experimental.
This is only meant to be a marker of progress. I hope some may find it enjoyable, useful, and even helpful.
If interested in the 6th draft: https://shiradest.wordpress.com/2014/12/20/martin-luther-king-rabbinical-commentary-poster-inspired-a-novel/
Peace,
Shira

Illogies Un
A few seasons ago, I participated in NaNoWriMo with the goal of writing a story a day for the entire month of November. I was able to do this and ended up with well over 50,000 words for the month. This book ended up with around 43K words, but it is missing a few stories. I didn't want to put anything that goes with "Pearls of the Mother" in the "Illogies." Each day I sat down to write, I had a different mood or something else I was thinking about, and I let that guide my writing process. I think a couple of these may end up with follow-on stories or maybe even books of their own. I hope you enjoy these; I know I do.Complete![𝔇𝔢𝔰𝔱𝔯𝔲𝔠𝔱𝔦𝔳𝔢 [Yandere!

Our Conscious Fields; What is living?
Slow paced narrative set in a world awakened to panpsychism and innate abilities following the fall and rise of society. A gentle approach to world building with a bit of humor, romanticism, and just enough hints of drama without going into it. When everyone writes about how it could all go wrong or what happens after it does; who wants to read about what happens if it just goes right for once? Still conflict and drama but, the hard work is already done. Now you just get to see a glimpse of what happens in a reality where it all works out. Work in progress - Inspired by Ready Players?; One Chaotic Answer This will be a slower update than Ready Players? but hopefully be more full in edits and depth. Comments and suggestions considered, otherwise please enjoy as this book and story unfolds. Thank you
-It Do Be Like that Sometimes- |Laurance x reader|
You're one of Cadenzas guards, until some toe eyed cabbages show up claiming to be her friends. . "Laurance?!" I screamed, "What. The. Hell. What's this, the fourth time now?" I jumped up, and the room started to rock; we're back on the boat. Brilliant, I missed breakfast. ~random little bits~ Ik it's a shocking description but please just give the book a try :( Its based during Minecraft diaries, but don't try match timelines bc honestly it'll be painful to. The basic things are still there like they went to the Irene dimension n shit but everyone that didn't go, like Cadenza, Nicole and Dante are in their 20s rather than mid/late 30s - it's also not brung up in the series that much so its not a big concern 🤷♂️ It's a fanfic guys I wrote it for fun not to match with the whole timeline ~it's not the most innocent book but there aren't any lemons 😬 ~slow burn relationship ~chapters vary from 500 words to 1500 words lol I don't own shit for the book apart from the plot (even tho 50% of it is my inspiration from other stories and i mashed it all together lol) I also take full credit for the cover apart from the pic I found on Google lmao Started: 11 April 2020 Finished: 23 June 2020 Final chapter released (64): 18 August 2020Complete

Notes on myself: family, friends, society, technology, earth, space, life, existence. ----------------------------------- I am writing a book. My practice is to write a draft (called version 1), post it, then edit it multiple times while working on later chapters. I will update the version number on each edit. I will respond to comments and incorporate your feedback in each edit. Every section has version numbers posted at the top of the page. Use the links below to navigate to the posted sections. Available for reading at: - https://adammassive.substack.com/p/table-of-contents - https://www.scribblehub.com/series/1740176/notes-on-myself/ These are my journal entries. I needed to get this out, to be better, to make you better, to make me better. This is my outbreath after so many years of holding in an inbreath.

Group Chat [Mystreet AU] {Book 1} (Completed)
*WARNING* -This story includes heavy themes such as mature language; sexual reference; kidnapping; murder; suicide reference; etc. ~~~ Thirteen people met in an online game. They all bonded, becoming great friends. One of the members, Aphmau, created a group chat, that they all connect every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday. It's been a common routine for three years. However, things start to change, now that the group is getting older. What will happen, when the members start to disappear? ~Disclaimer~ All character used belong to Aphmau. I only created the plot.
