Of Brides, Sparrows And Unlucky Grooms

Hi everyone!

I know, this isn't an update to any of my stories I have underway… I dunno why, but these days (and I've brought it up before too in my most recent releases) writing has become just so painful to me that it takes way too much time and effort to transfer all the ideas and concepts from my head to actual paper. I have so much enthusiasm to draw from, but whenever I try to get on with the continuation of either Maid's Logbook or Daughter of Jerusalem, it's just not working out for some reason. So as I've foolishly gone against my principles and started publishing before having an actual draft of the whole fic finished in case of some writer's blocks, I hope you'll forgive me for my prevailing lack of updates which may continue for a while. Depending on how long it will take for me to relocate my muses!

HOWEVER, I have here now a story. A new, short story that originally came to be a few years ago around the same time I was writing my first Pirates of the Caribbean series, and which has tardily gained more meat on its bones by time while I've contemplated different ways to execute the sequel.

So as some of my readers once requested during the finish of Eternal Blood, after editing & editing & bucket loads of more editing, I've now somehow been able to complete a three chapter long shortie about Eve & Will after the events of At World's End! It was meant to be a oneshot surrounding a certain event around this whole story centers, but knowing me and my tendency to go wild with the text it eventually grew to a three part novella type of peek into my very first OC's life. It's not meant to be an actual kick off of a possible installment that would include the 4th film, just a small experiment about how things could potentially go if she would be thrown into the adventure following the 3rd film. But how exactly…Well you find out by continuing onto the first chapter!

I still claim no ownership over the franchise, and own but my own characters and plot presented from here on. And wish most dearly that the characters, mine or the original, aren't too OOC but what can I do? In addition to my writing troubles it felt truly odd to write about Eve again after such a long time, taken that only a single paragraph had been written beforehand until I started working on the story about a month and a half ago. So hopefully I once more managed to capture her personality as you remember it.

But without further keeping you with my blabber… Enjoy, love, hate, comment and be sure to leave possible suggestions of improvement! ;)

Till the next update!

With love,
