Yep, done up to the part which is on 'authonomy'. I updated it there just now, you have got to go and read it, leave a comment or something! I was giggling while editing it! Is that wrong? I don't know. Some things appeared while re-reading what I'd written. Added tags as well to help in understanding, added 2000 words in these first 17 parts out of 64. So I might be heading for 45,000+ words, definitely enough.
Go, read! Please :-)

Updating "Dani's Shorts 2"
Of course there were typos! It wouldn't be my work if it didn't have any...
Weekend Q6 had a missing hyperlink and now I found a few mistakes in Challenge 41, silly spelling errors and the end line was wrong. So far, nothing else...I like the book...is it wrong to read your own work and like it?
Up to page 38 of 181 in 'How to'. Can't wait to finish this first edit!!! Okay, I'll stop this and get on with it...:-)

Editing 1 - started, honestly.
It's been difficult to motivate myself to edit 'How to'...but now I'm doing it. Completed 6 out of 64 parts, added 100+ words to each, fleshed it out a bit, made it shine a little more, and put some emotion / care into the characters.
But I wasn't ready before now. Everything that happens, happens when it should...but you must push it, you can't wait for the train to run you over.
Anyway, the proof will be in the final writing :-) Working on it :-)
Oh, and 'Dani's Shorts 2' is one 500 word story away from completion and formatting, of course :-)

Half success AND MANGA!!!
I got 2nd place :-) ...by 2 clicks...YES, you read right, 'clicks'...my logical brain could not compute that all Jasper wanted was 'clicks'. As a self-published writer, my mind thought he wanted downloads but now I realise he could only count the 'clicks' and not the downloads - there is no way to find out where the downloads come from, but the 'clicks', yes. I'm kicking myself because I could've PESTERED 100+ more people for a 'click'...so $50 and not $125... I wanted to put my books in the school library as the kids are screaming for them but now...I can get a copy or two (the shipping price to Hungary is a killer!)
Working on the last Challenge of the year, number 52 and it looks like I'm going 'MANGA'! :-)
Then I'll need to format 'Dani's Shorts 2' and publish it on Smashwords...exciting times!
Still working on 'How to'....have to make the reader 'care'...:-)

Nonsense Poetry?
I'm still trying to get more FREE downloads for Jasper. If you know anyone who can, please pass the link to them...:-)

I also entered a comedy poetry competition with my nonsense style. Using the 'words' from my nonsense Punch and Judy for Challenge 51, plus a few others, I created a verse.
Here it is...it's a love poem...like you can tell :-)
UPDATE: This post was linked into 'The Poetry Daily' (11th Feb 2014)! Way-hey!!
