I'm pleased to announce that I finally got my new story uploaded to fanfiction.net - Twist of Fate.  It's the sequel to House of Cards, and is the second book in which I guess is now going to be a trilogy.

Let me know what you think, if you're so inclined. :)

Due to a disruptive summer, I have not been working on my writing for several months now.  My mind has been far from creative endeavours, but I'm now slowly starting up again.  Thank you to all the kind people who have voted on my fanfiction.net poll.  I have written most of the second HoC book, but have hit a block on a few sections.  My normal ( Read more... )

My God, it's just over 3 years to the day that I last posted to this journal. Holy crap ( Read more... )
