The Expensive Universal Instrument – part 7 – “Once more unto the breech” is here.
I’ve been pushed and pulled in so many area of life for the last long while that it’s been hard to write. I’ve decided to noodle around and push on with the serial. Once again, for those at home, these are basically unplanned and first drafts for my (and hopefully your) amusement.
Does our main character get the Expensive Universal Instrument back? What’s in The Buccaneer’s Treasure? Find out…
I didn’t want to end 2013 not writing. (Long boring story, doesn’t need telling here).
I wanted to have some fun and this series has always been about me having fun.
So, after two years, here is part 6. I hope you enjoy. I intend to keep this going for a while.
At long last, part 5 of The Expensive Universal Instrument!
It took a while to get back to it. So many projects came up and many are still dancing around in my head. I still like this story though, so I’ll keep coming back.
Although going back to read the rest, I’m tempted on doing a little editing and cleaning up. This serial has so far essentially been posted as a first draft. I write it, and I hit “publish”. I’ll have to give it some serious thought.
Either way, I hope you all enjoy it! Feel free to comment or suggest or even criticize!
You can find the previous 4 parts here.
The next installment of The Expensive Universal Instrument is finally here! It’s slightly shorter than I’d hoped, but I liked the mild cliffhanger I decided not to fight it.
I hope you enjoy!
Hey there campers. How did you guys prepare for the apocalypse?
I figured I’d take a break. I apologize for this as I try to regularily update the site. I’ll try to do better since we clearly are moving on.
I guess I’ll just have to put out another installment of The Expensive Universal Instrument. Keep an eye out. I’m working on part 4.
I’ve had a minor problem with credit cards. Mine was cloned somehow. Unfortunately this is causing problems with my How To Revise Your Novel course. However, Ms Lisle has been awesome and I should be able to get this straightened out this week.
The weekend was fun but very busy. Every year that first long weekend where we get outside and get started for the summer, I realize that I’m way out of shape and I’m gonna pay for the fun I’m going to have. This one was no different. I’m sore and I’m stiff.
The upside is that the yard is started and I did get to use the BBQ all weekend. We spent some time with friends, I ate a lot of charred animal flesh.
Good times.
Oh. We also discovered we have a Jedi in the family! Forgive the blurry, I’m not a great photographer and this was taken with my iPhone 3GS.
The Force is strong with this one.
Ain’t she cute?
The Expensive Universal Instrument – part 3 is here! Sorry it took a few days folks, but I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed writing it!
Our fanboy finally gets to unpack the new toy and play with it…or can he? Weirdness ensues in part 3!
The Expensive Universal Instrument – part 2 – The arrival
Wherein The Expensive Universal Instrument finally arrives at our super fan’s home.
Note: This serial is basically my excuse to write at 750words.com, so what you are reading is very much a first draft with very little editing. I like it that way, but that doesn’t mean I won’t come back and polish it up later. Feel free to comment, critique and advise. I just might listen!
This begins my first attempt at a serial. Follow the adventures of a fanboy give the chance to beta test a highly unusual and powerful item from his most favorite company in the whole wide world!
