Announcement!


I have an announcement  on a very controversial subject.

I will be pulling Breach to publish it.

Here are some things you need to know:

You have until the end of the month to copy, make pdf’s whatever. Share it, spread it, I have no problem at all with that.

I am self publishing, which means the cost is all on me. I have not sent it in to any publishers.
This is for me. It’s on my bucket list to publish a book. Did I think Breach was going to be the one? No. But a possibility for me to do it presented itself. I think Breach has an excellent story that should be shared. Breach will always be my crowning jewel, at least to me.

Will the published version be the same as the fic? Mostly. The ending will be a bit different, and anything Twilight related will be taken out or changed. There isn’t much Twilight related to begin with. I will be reworking it into a better version. Often times I was rushed to get a chapter out and it wasn’t as good as I wanted it to be.

What about the sequel? That is the very hard decision I had to make, the one that gave me pause. I want to give you all the sequel, but I can’t if I publish, and that makes me very sad. I will publish the sequel though, once Breach has been published.

Are you changing the title? No. I know a lot of people try to disassociate their published piece from their fic piece, but the title is part of the story. How can I change it?

Are you pulling your fics and will you stop writing fanfic? NO. Let me say that again for emphasis. NO! I love fanfic. I love writing fanfic. This is about Breach and Breach alone. None of my other fics will be pulled and published, and WIP’s will continue. I’m sure I will also continue to be assaulted by plot bunnies. :D

  2. Oh, I am so happy for you. I stumbled upon Breach almost towards the end, and I was waiting patiently for the Sequel that you had referenced.

    I certainly can understand that the Sequel could not be published until your reworked, published version of Breach is completed. I sincerely hope that you are successful with the publishing of Breach, it is a fantastic story--filled with such raw emotion and damaged characters.

    I have enjoyed your Fictions, and I certainly hope that you do continue. I look forward to reading the published version of Breach, and most definitely hope you eventually either post a Sequel or publish a Sequel.

    PS: I just love the Conventioneers.

  5. Hello girl

    My name is Cinthya and it's a pleasure to read everything you write.

    Just about a week ago I was reading Breach and I have to say that I love that fic. Wow, your story blow my mind and I really admire the way you portray Bella and Edward.

    Your work is remarkable and I really like this Emmette and Kate too, oh God I love her.

    You will notice that my english is not very good looking 'cause it's not my native language. I'm from Mexico and I would like to share your story with all the girls that I know but sadly all of them speak only spanish. Bad thing if you ask me 'cause they are missing a lot of fun by not reading fanfics in english.

    Could I please translate your story and publish it in my account of FanFiction? Of course I will give you all the credit as it should be done.

    It's the first time I ask anything like this to someone. I hope you don't get offended by my request and you give me a chance.

    Don't feel pressured by me. If it's not possible then it's perfectly fine. I'll respect your desition.

    I hope we can work this out. Thanks for your time and for reading me.

    Have a good day.

  6. Holy Crap!!I was so happy to hear that Breach is being published. I was so sad when it was taken off of the twilighted site. Please let me know when you publish it because I so want it. I am a HUGE fan of Master of the Universe and of course the new title Fifty Shades of Grey. Again so happy for you. My friends and I who love this story will be buying this book.
