  1. I didn’t want to ruin the story for anyone who was actually reading it but yeah, it’s for Mo and that’s hilarious, I might just use that! But now you know the basic reason for why I need it to be some sort of modern day reason for the beam not to work since back when the first guy was taken there was no problem.
  2. It’s a good thing I’m quite a few chapters off from needing the specifics but at least you guys will keep me entertained while I figure it out.
  3. It’s probably a good thing nobody who actually knows anything about the technology (not that we can beam people up or what have you but you know what I’m saying) will read this story but I don’t want people scratching their heads wondering if I have no idea how anything works. Seriously, it’s just going to be like a paragraph to explain why the aliens didn’t beam the MC up right away like they did the last guy. And since this is just a silly idea from my head, I have no real enthusiasm for researching how this stuff works. I just don’t want to sound like I’m completely clueless. But if need be, I’ll contact NASA right away and see what their thoughts are on this, just as soon as I finish doing some other things that don’t involve using my brain.
  4. Okay, I guess I should have specified a bit better. The aliens were “visiting” around 2000 years ago and they swung back around this way again, none of their technology is on the planet. They basically just screw with the humans and go away. It’s confusing I know.
  5. Okay so I’m writing this story and I need a reason the aliens wouldn’t be able to “Beam” someone up until they are at a specific spot/general area. I have no idea about anything to do with aliens and spaceships or, well, just about anything that has to do with the science fiction genre (this story isn’t really sci/fi, it’s just got an ending that is a bit...strange, so don’t ask me why I’m writing something I have no idea about, thank you very much). I just need a sort of plausible explanation as to why it might not work in the modern age when it worked before, like around 2017 years before. Thank you very much in advance for any ideas or help you might have. CL
  6. I’m going to stop being so negative. I just realized that I have a shitty outlook on everything that has to do with anything I do. This was pointed out to me by my family while most of them were a little drunk which means it’s probably true. I’m also going to get to work on that fallout shelter I’ve always wanted just in case things go the way I have a bad feeling they will. I’ve already got a couple of cases of wine so my stockpile is off to a good start. Oh and I guess I might try to write some stuff too. Happy New Year!
  7. Ah damn it. I copy/pasted the thing from one of my other threads and didn’t change the link. All fixed now, thanks for the heads up!
  8. Chapter 2 is up.
  9. Review Replies for On the Third Day He Rose Again Chapter 1 Well, this went over just as well as I had expected it to, like a lead brick. Oh well, I find it amusing to write so I’ll just keep amusing myself and my two loyal readers. Things will get more lively, or deadly, in the next few chapters, I promise. Tahn: You always like the weird stuff. But that’s why I love you! pippychick: I always love your reviews even though I have to admit, I’m always a bit scared I’ll disappoint you by not living up to your expectations! I’m not sure how much the whole bisexual angle will come into play, so far there’s no indications that there will be any sex in this book (not ruling it out but so far it’s more of a comedy/drama than romance but you never know). And yes, Mo’s in for a few surprises when he wakes up. That’s all for now, thanks again to Tahn and Pippychick for the reviews. Chapter 2 is up now! CL
  10. OMG, this is the first Anime I’ve ever watched and if this person has a story to go in there, I just might have to read an Anime fanfic *gasp*
  11. Author: The_CL Title: And on the Third Day He Rose Again Summary: Mohammed, Mo for short, has a curious problem. It seems he can't stay dead. Feedback: Reviews are always welcome of course. Fandom: Original Pairing: N/A Warnings: AFFO Bigotry Contro MCD Other Violence WIP Solo story or chaptered story: Chaptered URL: http://original.adult-fanfiction.org/story.php?no=600108442 Review Replies: http://www2.adult-fa...on/#entry368114 This is just a little experiment, me writing something that isn’t romance, feel free to ignore it.
  12. I have a sharp needle I use for regular deflation if you’d like you can borrow it.
  13. I do believe I saw one in Books, called Movies, just this last sweep that had people in cages and ‘giants’. Not sure if it had a plane crash in it though as I only read the last chapter that was posted.
  14. Oh, self doubt is an ugly monster and believe me we all deal with it. I tend to compare myself with others far too much and usually, more often than not, find my own work lacking but there’s always room for improvement. I look at this (posting things here on AFF, lots of times before they’re really ready for public consumption) as a learning experience and a way to work on the things I do horribly wrong. Just remember, there’s always going to be someone who does thing better than you but then there are always going to be people who do them worse too and you can learn from both. Good luck with your story! CL
  15. Being new and writing originals isn’t an easy task. My first story got almost no reviews and I was sort of discouraged at one point but you have to push on. Like DP said, as long as people are reading, and lots of people read and don’t review, then you know you’ve at least got an audience for your work. Don’t let the lack of reviews get you down it happens to everyone and if you hang around the forums long enough, you’ll see it’s a common complaint among writers even in the popular fandoms.
  16. So, just signed a contract for Loving Sarajevo! I’m pretty excited and really looking forward to the end of 2016 because 2017 is going to be awesome. The tentative release date for Falling for Him is April 2, mark your calendars! :P

  17. Thanks for the heads up. No need to link the stories, it will be addressed during the weekly sweep of the archive. I already dealt with some in another subdomain so we are aware of this. Thanks again.
  18. My 10 yr old son just burst into tears when I broke the news to him that Trump had won. I didn’t understand how invested in this race he was until I asked him why he was so upset. Well you see, my kids are Muslims and he was afraid Trump was going to block him from going back to the place he was born to visit his Grandma and Grandpa (which of course he can’t since we are all American citizens with the passports to prove it). This election has far reaching effects and I don’t think anyone will escape at least a little of the fallout.

      Please hug him tightly from me. I swear, I have tears in my eyes as I type this. What a price we’re all paying…  :cry:

      Oh… poor kid :(

      Tell him he has to go back, because when you’re all there, I’m going to be sending you your box of things, and he might get to have some of the sweets ;)

  19. So after almost exactly a year of trying, I finally have some news to report on Falling for Him. Today I signed a contract to publish it with NineStar Press who, not so coincidently, is also publishing a short story titled Satin Secrets which features Gavin and Lex in their upcoming Layers anthology. Anyway, just thought I would share this with you all and I’ll be sure to let everyone know when it comes out! CL
  20. So I guess my lucky streak continues… I just got offered a contract to publish Falling for Him!!! Off to celebrate with a bottle of wine! 

  21. Thanks ladies! I’m finding myself in a tough spot now though. I forgot my mom is social media stalking me and she called me to find out what this new book is about. Me: Um… a hitman that uh… does stuff? Her: Oh, sounds like something Ron (my brother) would like. You know he likes those thriller type books. And something about politics too, right? The name is Backdoor Politics? Me: Uh… I don’t have the balls yet to tell her what it’s really about. I may have to tell her it’s only being published in Swahili or something.
  22. Signed a contract to publish Backdoor Politics. The story will be coming down in about 22 hours so if you’re in the process of reading it, you better get your read on.

      It’s amazing work, and you deserve it to be published :) I feel very honoured I was able to read it while you were writing :hug:

      Thanks guys. I’m super excited because I figured there was no chance for this one to get published but guess I was wrong. :D

  23. So I just signed a contract to publish Backdoor Politics which of course means I’ll be removing it from AFF shortly. Fair warning if you are reading the story, you have about 22 hours to finish it. I plan to take it down tomorrow morning (that’s my tomorrow morning and I’m on CET). Thanks to everyone who read the story (including at least 2 people I know who didn’t enjoy it, you know who you are) and a special big thanks to those of you who reviewed it! I’ll make sure I post a link in the Great Wall of… thread as to where you can purchase the book once it comes out. Now, back to your regularly scheduled programming. CL
  24. Review Replies for A Unicorn, A Dragon and A Troll Walk into A Bar… Chapter 2 Okay so here’s some more weirdness for all three of you all who are reading this. The replies… Tahn: Um, it’s been so long I have no idea why you’re saying I’m just as crazy as you are but I have decided to let the comment stand. (Though we both know you are wrong, you are much crazier than I am.) BronxWench: I’m sorry for the cliffhanger and I’m sorry it took so long to update too! It’s sort of hard to figure out who is and who isn’t up to no good right now but hopefully it will all work out. Thanks for leaving a review! The witch is pleased. Lol That’s it for now, thanks again to Tahn and BW for the reviews! Chapter 3 is up now! CL
