Okay, just announcing that the latest chapter of Mayhem in a Pill has been sent to the editors and should be posted to storiesonline by early in the week.

Just letting y'all know.

--Shinerdrinker

Here's a little something about me for y'all to comprehend... I am a lover of science fiction and fantasy. I'd be willing to guess I ain't alone in that, simply deducing from many of the stories on this website!

But my wife decided she finally wanted Disney+. It was something we simply didn't see the need for, but now my wife said she wanted to see the new Star Wars shows. Well, this was about a month and a half ago, and we finally finished Andor. Now that was fun!

Well, a few nights ago, I was browsing YouTube and stumbled upon the scene in the second season where Mon Mothma dances at her daughter's wedding, having a cathartic moment and letting loose, as if no one is watching. In reality, she is dancing because she has decided to stop pussy-footing around and show the Empire what she really thinks of them. She is enjoying her last dance in this world, she's known her entire life. It's a fantastic scene.

But I digress...

I found a special edit on YouTube from the creators of Andor, which is a remixed version of Mon Mothma dancing in a circle. And the awesome dance track with it works wonderfully! It is an entire hour of that song replaying over and over again, just like the old raves from back in my college days. Well, sometimes the music just repeated, or the superfluous chemical digested back then just made it seem that way. But I digress...

If you liked that scene from the show, search for it on YouTube and enjoy. It's got just the right beat for me to do some nice writing. So lovely in fact, I'll be sending the next chapter of Mayhem in a Pill on to the editors for them later this week. So you lucky people should be getting access to the next chapter early next week. Isn't that great?

Alright, now, Mon shake what yo mama gave ya!!!!

So I did it again. I stayed up all night rereading a story from the past, and it has once again given me the proper amount of inspiration to continue writing rather than taking the weekend off to be with the family. But it's all cool since the wifey said she didn't feel like schlepping over to the grandkids anyway.

Woo hoo! But I'll have to do something nice for her, like I guess I'll have to throw her a little pickle tickle tonight. Tee hee.

Okay, enough of all that. The reason for this update. The real motivation that hit late last night, whilst downloading the varied gig o' MILF porn, I tripped across the download count of Mayhem in a Pill, since I had not been focusing on it too much recently. Lo and behold, we're approximately 500 downloads short of reaching a fairly significant milestone of 1.3 million total downloads for the entire story.

In theory, we could reach that goal in a week with the story as written. Or I could get off my fat ass, post the next chapter, and crush that goal in an hour or so! Not really doable, but a nice thought. 1.3 million. Not too shabby, if you ask me!

That's a whole lawt of words being written by me, and read by you people from all over the world. It's a bit awe-inspiring. I like to think my audience here on Storiesonline is a bit above the world's average in intelligence, so I kinda feel bad about me being responsible for keeping our collective intelligence away from working on real problems and transfixed on a former fat kid living a high school dream as a sports super hero!

So... long story short. I'm a writing today rather than leaving the Chateau de' Shiner to see the kids' kids. Woo hoo! Double win for me and especially for all of you lovely people who've pushed the download counter to nearly 1.3 million reads.

Sincerely, thanks.

I hope to keep the story interesting enough for you guys to continue on this journey with me. Even if some of you don't like it, and continue reading it anyway. Maybe I'm slowly becoming the new Howard Stern! Eww, no thank you. I had long hair for like a year early on in middle school. I didn't like it, but I was rebelling, so I chose that as the battlefield. Damn, I used to be dumb.

Oh well, back to the word processor!

Hello all.

Thanks to those of you who have written to let me know what they thought of the latest chapter of Mayhem in a Pill. I hate that it took so long, so I tried to make it a bit longer and overshot my wad by about eight or nine pages.

But in the midst of my celebrating and continuing the ever-evolving search for MILF porn, I discovered something on the interwebs I did not know was there. I found a video of the only football state championship won by my high school alma mater.

No, I wasn't on that team. That would be a perfect thing to have happen, wouldn't it?

No, I had already gradumated and was enjoying my time in college. But my little sister did let me know it was happening, and I remembered watching it on the TV in the dorm rec area. Luckily, no one begged to change the channel, which was always something worthy of a good argument. I remember several other guys who fluttered in to enjoy the end of the game. It was a good game with the good guys running an old school option running attack and beating one of the first pass-heavy high school teams in Texas football. The run and shoot offense was becoming all the rage in college ball, but there weren't many high schools yet running that offense. The following year changed that, and eventually, the pass-heavy variants were aplenty, and the run-heavy option went the way of the Dodo.

Needless to say, I just finished watching the game again, and it got the old writer's juices flowing again. I just turned off the LibreOffice Writer app after it started sweating profusely. (Not actually, but I killed it on new pages for the next chapter.) Well, it's a great starting point for the next chapter.

So, in the end, I just wanted to thank those of you who have written and those who haven't yet written for at least reading the latest chapter, and I hope to continue this story as long as it's necessary. For those who are worried, it doesn't mean every season will be as long as this. (I mean, I love football and writing football games, but damn, that's a lot of football!) I'm totally open to the idea of breaking up the next years of Mayhem's high school years into separate books, in fact, that is probably preferable, since the end product of these sessions of writer's blocks are turning into new stories I want to tell. Now that I have more of a handle on how to write them.

Thanks, and for those who didn't know, the new chapter was posted due to the plethora of good stories recently posted, which pushed it down the list of recently updated stories so quickly... It's there! Read it!

Tee Hee.

And now, back to the MILF porn for me!

Sorry about the wait. My type of writer's block didn't necessarily mean I wasn't writing anything. But it felt like all of it was just pure bullshit and read just like it. Pardon my French.

You will notice this is a much larger chapter than usual. The majority of my chapters are usually 15-18 pages typed on one and a half spaced lines. Why do I do it like that? I dunno.

But this chapter was easily nearly 35 pages long. It should probably get split into multiple pages per chapter, like many of my favorite stories have done with their posted chapters. I didn't do it on purpose, but here we are.

I could have cut it into two separate chapters, but I felt asking y'all to wait for the entire game... again... was probably a bit too much. I know I might have lost several readers already simply due to how long it has been since I last posted. Believe me, I hate that it took so long to post, too!

So, I've gone ahead and sent the chapter to Laz and the other site runners to post, and it should get there this morning. Read. Absorb. And of course, enjoy.

Lemme know what y'all think of the chapter, and if you have specific problems with it, please send a private message. There is no need to try to air out your bad mojo into the air, a dig?

Tee hee.

Edit: Okay, so apparently the chapter won't be divided into separate pages. Color me confused. Just make it hell long, I gots no problem with that though!
