further adventures of Decommissioner 37

[asakiyume]

I'm nearing the climax of my sequel to The Inconvenient God. I'm excited! This story's considerably longer than that one--with more details about the protagonist's past, including her ~ ~ name ~ ~ (Sweeting was what her grandparents called her, but it's not her name.)

I probably won't finish it by the end of the year--too much other stuff going on--but early in the new year.

... okay, going to take my high energy off for a run and to work out more plot details.


Here--enjoy Sofi Tukker singing "Matadora"

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY.

Sorry, I'm also excited. I love that story so much.

[asakiyume]

I AM SO GLAD YOU DO. I hope this one will have the same appeal!

[sovay]

I hope this one will have the same appeal!

I look forward to finding out!

(Signs point to yes. I tend to like your fiction. I wish there were enough of it to be collected.)

[asakiyume]

There's old stuff hanging around, but I kind of dread looking at it for fear of wincing in embarrassment. It's okay! I'm happy to just look forward.

[sartorias]

Oh, excellent about the sequel! There was so much interesting stuff about that world!

[asakiyume]

It's been a long time--like 10 years!--since I created a world that I wanted to write more than one story in. It's a great feeling.

[gwynnega]

Yay sequel!

[asakiyume]

^_^

I'm so thrilled! Looking forward to seeing it when it's in the wild!

Also seconding what sovay said about the possibility of a short story collection. How many stories would you need for that? You've got these two stories about Sweeting - the boy on the roof - the story of the blind seamstress from the ballroom anthology - Jolene (I think the heroine's name was Jolene, not the story title) - the story about duplicates (which you have a cover for and everything!)... And I know there are at least a few others.

Of course I don't know the rights situations for all of these stories, but still. It might be worth doing!

[asakiyume]

One of these days! As you know, my inertia is strong--I have covers for the dress story and "Duplication" but still haven't managed to format an epub doc... And organizing a whole collection? But one day!

[queenoftheskies]

I can't wait to read your story!

[asakiyume]

I can't wait to finish it and share it!

I am salivating.

[asakiyume]

This makes me so happy! (Which is not what people usually say about saliva maybe? But thank you!)

[mallorys_camera]

Very exciting! 😃

Do you know I was afraid to click on this song in case it makes me deeply sad by motivating me to create Stories and Worlds and Wonders at a time when time is not ripe for such. I did click, though, and am now just enjoying it and contemplating getting up and dancing a bit. :D

Hooray for sequels that are LONGER!

ETA: And I did dance; Ti'Loup came in and we had an impromptu dance party.

[asakiyume]

That is exactly how I feel about the song! This group's songs just get me dancing ** so much ** --I'm really glad you and Ti'Loup had an impromptu party. Check out Playa Grande, Swing, and Johny, also by Sofi Tukker. And Brazilian Soul, by The Knocks and featuring Sofi Tukker.

Nice, thanks for the recommendations!
