R.P.A.M.: Blog

Sorry guys, I'm running behind on my updates for this story.

As some of you probably know, last week Microsoft released Windows 8.1, and I was too eager to get my Windows updated. Well, Microsoft had a stable Windows 8 and turned it into an unstable Windows 8.1. :(

It took me until today to get everything working properly. Sure, I could have gone back to Windows 8, but I'm also a PC technician, and I need to understand this new OS. Thanks to my problems, I learned a lot about it in the past few days. ;)

Not everything is fixed yet, but I have it running stable again, and the things I couldn't fix, are the things Microsoft will need to fix with updates, but I can work around them for now.

Because of all of this, I haven't worked on my story. Luckily, I have a prolonged weekend coming up, so I'm planning to write three full days on my story, and hopefully I will manage a few chapters. This way, I can write further on my story while publishing these chapters in the coming weeks.

So, give me another week, and I promise the updates of my story will be coming again. Thanks for your patience.

Hi,

I just received an e-mail from a reader who told me that I had made a mistake. So, I fixed it and I have uploaded a revision of the chapter, and it will be up soon.

I didn't know there was a difference between cousins and nephews. In the Dutch language, we only have one word for both, so I made the wrong assumption.

For my story, I did mean cousins, because they are the kids of Sandra's aunt. As you can guess, I didn't know that nephews is used for the kids of a sibling.

I apologize if this confused any of you. As you know, Sandra is an only child, so it would be very difficult to be a nephew of Sandra. ;)

Finally! I know!

Sorry it took me so long, but I'm back, and I'm going to publish one chapter each week again.

I haven't written everything yet that happened to Sandra on the Sunday, but I have enough chapters ready to keep publishing for a while and during that time, I will also write new chapters, so I can keep publishing until the story is done.

Thanks for your patience, and I hope you will enjoy the continuation of the story!

Best regards,
R.P.A.M.

My editing took a few days more than I had hoped for, but chapter 81 is finally done.

This chapter is more of an introduction for future stories about Sandra and her friends, but I needed to add it.

And, Sandra also shows some compassion towards someone who has tried to humiliate her during the past week.


Chapter 82+ will take a little longer to write, because I'm planning to write everything that happens to Sandra on the Sunday in one go. However, this also means that when I start publishing them, you will get a few chapters in one week, instead of a few during a longer period of time.


Thanks for enjoying my story. I greatly appreciated all the nice comments I received the past few weeks.


Best Regards,

I know, I know! I hate it when real life interferes with the fictional world I'm creating.

At least, I had a day off today, so I could proofread my chapter a last time before I uploaded it to the server.

As you can guess, I won't be able to keep my publishing schedule I had set for myself. However, you can be sure that almost every available time I have, will be put to good use on this story. I really want to finish it in the coming months, so I can start working on another story, Veerle's NIP-adventures and also start writing down ideas about the second book about ADP.

At least, I hope you will enjoy this chapter as much as I liked writing it. There sure happened something I hadn't counted on when I thought up this part of the story a few months ago. Although, I like the surprise that popped into my mind for Sandra. :)


Best regards,
