New to this thread? It’s an up-and-coming never-to-be-published 30,000+ word novel available right here for your reading pleasure.

Actual story begins here (click) or just continue reading if you want to see how it started.

Original post below:

Tell me I'm not the only one with a 30+ page drama/medical/mild romance/damsel in distress fantasy written solely for my own enjoyment. I am trying to convince myself that I am not totally abnormal. (Okay, I probably am.)

I wish if I had these pathetic fantasies I could at least have them with something of more general interest so others might enjoy them!

I doubt you're the only one... but really, why do you care? If you enjoy it and have a good way to express yoyr creativity, I say GO GIRL!
I still plan to sit down and write exactly as you describe, for my own enjoyment. Right now I'm at a very busy stage of my life. Your post actually inspires me to try ti make time for it.

You're not the only one. Would you publish it under a pseudonym ?

I wouldn't publish it, it's just a novelette, 12,000 words or so. I'd post it, but I first have to convince myself that someone else would read it and not cringe!

It can't be worse than a cereal box or shampoo bottle 😂 I am sure it's great if you're shy at least pm it for the ones that share their sn.

LOL! So while I'm still feeling brave, I hereby present to you...

A Damsel in Distress: Saved by a Knight in Shining... Tzitzis?

It is utterly pathetic, but hopefully keeps you entertained! (all 40 pages... Surprised

)

Often when people have a story that isn't long enough to be a novel, they publish it along with a collection of short stories. I've seen that happen to some of the shorter magazine serials.

I'd have read it but my firewall blocked the site. It's very persnickety today. If you post the story here (is that even possible?) I'd read it.

It's not exactly high class romance, but it's very clean Smile

ETA: I posted it here. Surprised it's not considered too long to post.

EATA: It actually is too long to post. Hurray, we hit the max characters per post! The end is in the next post.
