Gemini Rising, Part Seven
Done.
I hope to have Ogre look it over this weekend. If he doesn't tell me I've gone insane and jumped the shark, I'll send it to beta readers Monday (Nov 27). I'll give them a week to tell me I'm insane and have jumped the shark, and if they don't I'll release it the following Monday, December 4.

Huh, I actually can't think of a way the GB can 'jump the shark' the world of the paranormal is too paranormal, I think. The thought crossed my mind the it could happen if one character died and was brought back...but they already did that, sorta. So, I don't think it can happen.
I eagerly await the marvelous conclusion. ghostdiva

Introduce a cast of child characters who, against all logic... manage to survive all they go through and help save the day. Looking forward to checking out the next instalment, Fritz.

Another shark jumping sign, to paraphrase Ben: Introduce a ghost character who, against all logic... manages to survive and helps save the day.

He's been too busy to read it yet. It is sorta long...about the same length as Part 1, though not as long as "Forever"
Revision: He just finished it, and he didn't think I was insane. he figured everything out a long time ago, though, but that's because he knows me too well.

I'm thinking (and hoping that it didn't happen) that Fritz might have gotten mixed up in those horrible storms. A LOT of people are still without power. I'm not sure where Indiana is in relation to them, but I hope they missed him. If he could, I'm sure he would have either posted the story or posted a note about it. I'm really, really looking forward to it, too, but sometimes things happen. Fritz, whenever you read this, hope things are OK. Get word to us ASAP so we know you're OK.

Will Im not Fritz but I sow this on GBHQ Fritz rote at GBHQ {( Oh, Grife...I don't log in in a day and everyone's turning into werewolves again...I thought the full moon was still a couple days off... I'm going to be brief. My Grandma's in the hospital, and I just don't want to spend a lot of time on this sh*t tonight: I don't think there's anyone here who wants this place to be just like GBCentral--if we did, well, f**k, we'd all be back at GBCentral. That's not a slam on the people who also post over there--I've done it on occassion myself--just a statement of fact. ...... )} Fritz I hope your not mad that I posted this Its just I sow what you said and every one was asking sorry if I stepped over a line I hop your Grandma's OK

In fact, I thank you for posting that. Grandma's fine--she came home today--but that did factor into my lack of presence the last couple days. As for GR7 I think I'm going to have to delay it--the beta comnments I've gotten haven't completely calmed my nervousness about releasing this story. One did say they thought it was somehow "off" even if they couln't decide how. The other thought it was just fine. I guess one more is the tie-breaker. I apologize for the delay, and hope it won't be for much longer.

*breathes sigh of relief*
Glad you're OK, and I hope your Grandma will be, too.
Need a tie-breaker? Let me at it. It's an E/J-based story, and who better to praise/gripe?
Is this the same nervousness you felt about "Forever"? Remember, we loved it.

lol. I already tried that, it didn't work, you will have to wait with the rest of us. Fritz, I hope your grandmother only continues to get better. Its hard to have a family member sick and I know that you are doing all you can to take good care of her. We (yes, that includes Miss Janine ) we, will wait as long as you need. ghostdiva

Well, it was worth a try.
Seriously, though, if Fritz wrote it, I don't see how it could be "off".

I agree what Miss Janine said. She did make some good points just do what your heart tells you Fritz.
