After 13 years of self-publishing under this pseudonym, I've decided to withdraw by stories from Smashwords, Barnes and Noble etc (not from Wattpad) It was fun when I started but I've lost interest in the constant publicity and promos required.
          	To celebrate, most of my stories will be available FREE in ebook form, until 4th May

@Glory_feeling2 I do have paperback editions but they are a bit pricey unless you really like the story and want your own copy! Otherwise the draft versions of most of them are on wattpad - and in fact, when I remove them from D2D, I'll re-post the extra chapters on Wattpad

@elveloy Hi! If you have anything on paperback, I'd purchase it. I don't like reading ebooks, cause I have a difficult time focusing on anything digital. At least here on Wattpad, the stories are bookmarked by my votes . Good Luck!

Always a mixture of joy and sadness when you finish a story! I hope you enjoy the last few chapters of Steampunk Assassin:

@Space_Queen_Q Thank you! I hope it fitted together okay, I was still making it up as I went until the last chapter!! I think there are better ones out there, but you never know what is going to appeal to the judges... we shall see :)

Congratulations on finishing Steampunk Assassin. I had a lot of fun reading it. I expect it to be on the shortlist or I'm gonna have words with the ambassadors. LOL ❤️

every year I am puzzled by the algorithms which rank ONC stories. This morning, 
          Steampunk Assassin is 4th out of 1.55k in #opennovellacontest (yay!)
          5th out of 1.33K in #onc
          but sadly #892 out of 1.18K in #onc2026
          Weird right? 
          Any way, here's the next chapter in my story, to celebrate making it through to Round 3 - only 4K to go!!

@elveloy Hi! Congrats; algorithms are always weird, no matter what contest you participated in or not. Please remember it has to do with the amount of. Readers you have and checkmark (I call them bookmarks) for each chapter. Round that up; that's why I assume  the algorithm works like a calculator! 
            Anyway, good luck with finishing story!
