What up ? Goodwill Chapter 5

No one :

Not a single damn soul :

Hi There ! I'm back and while I was away I had to clear my head so I re-did the images for Litany Lane. I have no idea why I just needed to do something while working through plots.  They can all be seen here and I'm working on doing ALL the linking for the chapters.

Also this is coming soon .. . 

 "You really shouldn't fuck your boss" 

This is a Clara/Seraphina author fanfiction that takes place in cannon, so it's not AU. It started off as my idea of having all my characters in the same place for Valentine's Day but turned into a novella.

What I've been up to (What you really want to know)

So I'm still deep in the trenches with multiple serials and I have this crazy idea that I'm going to finish at least the draft of an entire serial before posting them. Like I've finished the draft of Goodwill and it's like 60% good to go. It needs some patches and editing but I've finished it.

I had this goal that this would be the year I got the most stuff out of my head an onto the site, I'm a little behind but I think I can catch up this summer...we'll see. So here is what I have

Goodwill (not including chapters 1-4) 31,011. 34,934
This seems really short I'm hoping to get another 10K in there. 
Nope, this seems fine now.

Red Booth 4,954 
Goodwill sequel that is going to be a challenge.

New Aeterna 3 - 27,375

If I ever finish this I will be amazed, this is just a thing I want to do to close out a storyline and I also want to do like a YA Paranormal/Dystopia sequel...just to see if  I can do it. Pssst!. Honestly Red Booth is more of a priority. I feel like once I buckle down this will be easy to spit out.

 Litany Lane Fanfiction Emile POV - 15,523

This is my Post-series novella from Emile's POV and I want it to be booth introspective and funny. I call this fanfiction because it should not exist I'm being totally indulgent and want to dive into Clara and Fierro's complicated relationship. But this is also about Emile dealing with middle-age, his career, regrets and finding his way with his found family. There is also a touch of paranormal in this and it's a novella so I have a lot to cram in. It takes place a year after Pretty Little Things. Some the things that come up in My Valentine show up in this too, so IDK. I actually wrote two versions and tried to squish them together the word count should go down.

Please Don't Stop The Music

So I've mangled my Spotify account like four times. the first time was because I never verified my e-mail for literally years. IDK what happened the second and third time but I should be straight and I just started over...which feels good. NOW EVERYTHING HAS A BACK UP !!!

Goodwill Recap

I know it's been a minute so here is a recap ! Here is a handy Sofia/Tomas recap I found.

Reeling from the lost of his mother to an overdose Tomas is still making ends meet as a tattoo artist at Venus's Body Art in Greenwich Village. Meanwhile, Sofia is still in school and takes a full-time job as a CNA with a prominent city hospital. When Sofia's new salary gets them kicked out of government housing they rely on co-workers and Tomas friends to find shelter. While they are displaced Toma's weakened immune system causes him to have an untreated  myalgia that has spread to his legs, leaving him with chronic pain and and impaired walking, at home he relies on Sofia to be his caretaker.

Tomas, Sofia and baby Elijah move in with Maddie and Eric for a few months. Renting a mattress on the floor isn't ideal but they make it work while saving  up. Sofia is rattled into making a big change when Child Protective Services take Elijah away.

Reluctantly Tomas agrees to leave Manhattan and they settle into a one-bedroom duplex in Queens and welcome Elijah back home. They are working hard for the American dream with Tomas taking on independent clients, managing his pain and battling depression while Sofia is working two jobs and finishing up school.

When Martina Haskell, a tax attorney from St. Vincent , North Carolina knocks on Sofia's door with an offer to sue the hospital where Sofia was victimized. Martina's sister was one of Allen's victims but passed away before Martina could act on it. Nurse Monica Golden gave Martina the tip about Sofia and tells her if she can convict her attacker--Allen Fenton--in criminal court they can sue the hospital for six-figures. Sofia and Tomas put their lives in NYC on hold (subletting their duplex, leaving their jobs and selling valuables) to head back North Carolina for three months to get through the trial

To keep cost down Sofia and Tomas rent a room from Judson Manor, Tomas former employer at Riverside Tattoo and his half-brother. Space is tight with Judson's four year old daughter Evianna living with him along with Garnett the one-year old son he had with his pregnant fiancee, Katie. Plus Katie's three year old daughter, Tammi-Lynn from her previous relationship with Tony, Judson's now deceased close friend.

But Sofia doesn't need space, she  needs to find the strength to get through the trial, but when she finds out the Fentons live just up the street she starts to realize you can't escape anything in Riverside.
