Hi everyone,
Reading other FanFics inspired me to write for the first time in YEARS. I had an idea in my head and I felt that the best way to stop thinking about it so much is to put it on paper, virtual paper at least :D .

I hope you like it and please let me know what you think.

Keep it up :hug:
And I know I already told you this is well, but I want to say it again: THANK YOU SO MUCH for your encouragement.
I'm glad you liked it. I was so anxious when i published the 1st part. I mean, I am not a writer! never took classes or anything... so this is my little thing I do for fun.

I'm am working on the second part now... I hope to upload it by the end of week :). Hope not to disappoint.

THANX again - you're amazing!!!

I think you did a really good job on your first fanfic! It's a really interesting idea. I thought it was his ex-wife at first for sure. Keep it up. Can't wait to read what happens!

I know it's always scary to publish the beginning of a story, not really knowing how it will be received. But you did good by putting it out there :yes:

But my review isn't showing up on FFnet, why is that? :uhh: I am sure I wrote a review, damn!!!

Looking forward to the next part :hug:

Don't worry about the anxiety of posting. I STILL get nervous every time I hit the submit button. You'll either get over it or get used to it :D

Great job on this story! I'm interested to see where it's headed.

margie311 and Natasha - Thank you very much for your support and your comments!
I am working on part two now :D

Since I'm a novice, I am still trying to figure out the website and I hope that I'll manage to post this story in chapters.

Any tech tips will be greatly appreciated.

Oh you've seen it? Well, at least that :)

To post in chapters it's really easy: after uploading your document like the first time (this does never change, you always upload your Word documents through Doc Manager), you go to Publish > Manage Stories > Edit (on the right-hand side of the title of your story) > Content/Chapters (on top of the page that comes up, you have a few "tabs" like Properties, Live Preview and Download Backup)

Then you have a list of the chapters previously published (in your case, one) and below the list you can add a chapter. Put the Chapter Title and next to it, select the document you uploaded (you will have a scroll down menu with all the documents uploaded to date) and then click Add Chapter

:)

THANK YOU!!!

Now that I look at it - it looks so simple and I feel stupid.
I'll give it a try soon, looks like I'll publish Part Two later today - it's been going better than I expected. :)

Don't feel stupid! The site is hard to navigate sometimes. I STILL get really irritated because it's so limiting with fonts and those divider lines and other formatting options. I feel like stories would read differently if we were able to present them exactly the way they look on Word.

There's a small learning curve, but you'll get better at it the more you post. Every day I find something new on that site that I never thought to look at before.

Don't feel stupid - the site can be confusing. Any questions you have you should definitely post, someone else probably has the same questions and there are a bunch of us on this board who have been on ff for a while and can help you.

I can't wait to read (I made myself a promise to finish all my school work before I read anything).

I'm going to make a suggestion that really applies to all writers. If you post more than one chapter in a day, include that information in the author's note for the second chapter as well as the first chapter you write the next time. I can't tell you how many times I get confused because someone posted two chapters before I went on or I didn't realize that they updated twice in a day and got really confused by the storyline.
