A Djinna Tale is being revised (i.e. more chapters added). Please have a read and let me know what you think.

Thanks,

Finally!

I've finished and posted the Nightingale's Song.

I'm working up a new story on my writing website, called The Nightingale's Song.

Well ...'new' is a bit misleading - it is a story based on one I wrote half a dozen years ago and posted on fictionmania.

This is not a reposting though. When I wrote "Redemption Song" I was intrigued with the idea of starting a story without exposition - just 'jumping in' and letting the back story trickle out as the plot progressed.

Many of you have asked, and patiently waited for, a Shauna Deirbhile play list. Following are the artists and songs from the story:

1. Órla Fallon - The Gartan's Mother Lullaby
2. Fionnuala Gill - Deus Meus (Adiuva Me)
3. Patrick Ball - The Butterfly
4. Loreena McKennitt
- Bonny Portmore
- Courtyard Lullaby
- Snow
5. Andreas Vollenweider
- Airdance
- Lake Of Time
6. Philip Boulding - Song for Reconciliation
7. Harpa Paraguaia - Pajaro Campana
8. Celtic Harp Orchestra
- Greensleeves
- Miranda and the Tempest
9. Rüdiger Oppermann - Pretty Cool Harmonics!
10. Lisa Lynne & Aryeh - Harp duo -Carol of the Bells
11. Deborah Henson-Conant - Take Five

While Duty and Destiny is on hiatus, I'm working up a new story, over on my little writing website. My plan is to post the rough drafts over there, and when finished, I'll publish the final version here for general viewing.

If you're inclined, have a read.

Winter's Quiet

Hey, all!

Sorry I haven't posted stories lately, but I'm a very seasonal writer, and go quiet in the winter (or dormant, or into hibernation, or whatever...)

Since Spring is here and I'm writing again, I'll be posting soon.

Angela has posted an absolutely amazing piece today, The Woman Who Corrupted Diddleyburg.

It is a very clever title, because it is a play on the Mark Twain classic, The Man That Corrupted Hadleyburg. And Angela plays so well with Twain's plot. You really need to read the original version to understand just how excellent her story is. Click here to read Twain's version:

The Man That Corrupted Hadleyburg

I'm messing around with a new story. I'm not sure what I'll title it; at the moment I've given it the working title of "duty and destiny.' It takes place in the same world as my stories The Necessity of Winter, and After Winter. Chronologically, I'd say it is 3 or 4 years after After Winter.

As soon as I finish it, I will post it here, but as I said, it's still in the messin around stage. I've even posted a map, but it is a little crappy. I'm so jealous of Persephone's map (I have map envy).

I've been fiddling around with a small website. A place to warehouse cleaner versions of my stories, and to post tales that either are not yet ready for prime time (i.e. posting here), or are languishing in my pitiful brain.

Clearly, I have too much time on my hands.

Anyway, I've added a tiny amount of content, and will add more as it happens in real time. (Exciting, no? Or is the answer to that actually 'no!')

Thanks!

Hot off the presses (okay, basically the presses aren't hot anymore, but you know what I mean)

Today is Maggie Finson's birthday!!

I won't give any numbers, that would be uncouth (hey, there's a good word - look up the definition of couth)

What I can tell you, is she is old enough to know better, but young enough to do it anyway.

Happy Birthday Maggie!!!!

here ...and it differs significantly from the one posted on FM. Go ahead, compare em ...I dare ya!

With the changes, I will be able to finish this story pretty fast. (well,*ahem* that's the plan, anyway)

Many thanks for the patience!

Armond

I've decided to do a massive rewrite on Lilim Tales Part 3. The result is the version posted here will differ significantly from the one on FM.

I am truly sorry for the delay. But I believe Parts 3 and 4 will be better for it.

-Armond

Lilim 2 is posted here.

Lilim 3 soon to follow

I'll be posting Lilim Tales 1-3 over the next few days, with the new part 4 toward the end of the week. 1-3 were posted recently on FM, and I apologize to any readers who may have read them there. I didn't want to jam them all together, though, when I posted the conclusion here.

I mean, Holy Lilith! the file size would be way too big.

-A

Quick note, I'm still a few days away from posting the conclusion to Fragrance, but I just came up with an image for Part 4, got excited, and wanted to post it.

(Okay, confession time - bright shiny objects mesmerize me...)

Just posted Lilim Tales - Part 3 on FM:

Lilim Tales - Part 3

I'm going to be posting my new stories here first from now on, but since I started this one there, I figured I should end it there too.
