Reader Mail Mondays: Episode 3 (The NSFW Episode)

Sorry this is late. Editing took a really long time. :)

For starters? Reader Mail Mondays was filmed earlier tonight, but it won't be up until tomorrow afternoon, more than likely.

On another note, I was Googling my books, mostly to check if they're being pirated, and I found this link...

Third one down. I can wait.

I know it's not big deal, right? But still, that someone picked *MY* book as their favorite vampire story? That's just awesome. :)

Shooting the Reader Mail Monday Ep in a few hours...

Still plenty of time to get in your questions! This is the "NSFW" episode, and all questions will be anonymous, so if there's anything you ever wanted to know about me, or my characters, feel free to ask. Just won't show anything though. :)

In other news, House of Stone cleared 49k last night, and might break 50k today. :)

If you want to ask a question just leave a comment below (they'll be invisible to all, don't worry) or just e-mail it to vaughndemont@yahoo.com :)

Free Fiction Friday: Dead In The Water - Part 11 - SFW

Welcome to Week 16 of Free Fiction Friday!

Yet another 12:01 post. This is turning into a regular habit for me. I think the new writing schedule I worked out is really helping here. Going to be looking a file hosting site once this story is done so you guys can just download .pdfs of the FFF stories without having to read through all of the entries. :)

Also, it's looking like this week is going to be an NSFW episode of Reader Mail Mondays, so if there's anything sordid you want to ask, feel fre...

So the paperwork is dropped off and I am officially on the substitute list for the local school district! Yay for gainful employment!

In other news, Free Fiction Friday is looking to be a 12:01 post this week, and I'm hoping to shoot a Reader Mail Monday episode Sunday night, so please get your questions in!I've got a few, and I feel bad how I kinda rushed through the last question I answered in ep 2 "Where do you get your ideas for your books?", so I'll probably give a more in depth answer.

It Puts The Lotion On Its Skin...

So I got fingerprinted today, and it wasn't an ink job like I thought it would be. Nope, they used a scanner, for ease and speed and convenience!

It took half an hour.

My right ring finger was rolled over that scan plate so many times I think EVERYONE will have my prints from now on. But the worst part?

They smeared lotion all over my fingers, and that line from Silence of the Lambs kept playing in my head, so I was stifling giggles the whole time, which probably made the process more difficult...

House of Stone has reached 43k.

Lightning Rod has been queried to another agent.

I think I wrote about four thousand words yesterday. I'm going to bed.

I'm honestly surprised I've been able to listen to this much Pearl Jam without suffering some sort of episode.

Regardless, House of Stone has cleared 38k words, and I'm hoping to clear 39k tonight. 40k's a pipe dream, but stranger things have happened.

I've got an appointment for the 15th to get my fingerprints done. (Yes, you have to make an appointment. This whole thing just keeps getting more surreal.) After that, I can drop off my completed paperwork to the school district and I'll offici...
