jamesi2 asked: Which stories were you thinking of revising? And would the main major story be of the same general idea as your others?


I haven’t devoted much thought to determining which stories I’d like to include, to be honest. I’ve been developing a few possible collections. I know I would like the stories to share a common theme. The two collections I have fleshed out would be one centered on the theme of “revenge” and a second on the theme of “monsters”–I’m leaning more towards the first.

The long piece would be long and completely new. Then, I would also include a few new shorter pieces, and perhaps a revised or expanded version of an old piece. So, for example, the revenge collection would look something like this:

One long novella, (working title–“A Picture’s worth a Thousand Words”) about seven chapters long, or 25-30,000 words

And then, some shorter stories:

  • “Losing Control” (revised and edited)
  • “Unsuited” (expanded)
  • “The Silent Auction” (expanded)
  • “A Gift from a Magi (expanded and finished)
  • "Trailer Park Tango” (A M/F Mind Control story off MC Stories I’ve been wanting to rewrite as an M/M story for years now.)
  • “That Which You Hate” (revised and edited)

By the time it was all written, it would probably come in around 70,000 words of mostly new material. Hope that answers the questions.
