Dark Heathyr left me a comment a little while back asking if I have anything with all the previous chapters available. I don’t, but it’s a great idea.
I’m going to try to keep a growing text file of all the chapters I’ve posted so far (not the chapters I’ve finished – no reading ahead allowed!). Then if anyone emails me asking for it, I can email it back to them. So I guess if you email me at siskarensinger at yahoo dot you know where, then I’ll be happy to send you whatever I come up with. If I don’t get it to you right away, then please be patient, I haven’t built the thing yet.
There’s still a very long way to go with the story and I’m having a more and more difficult time writing parts of it. The last chapter I finished writing took me five weeks to finish, the chapter before that took four weeks. Of course they’re both very long chapters, but still, it’s getting tiresome to keep pounding this stuff out so fast. All this means that you are gradually catching up to me. I’m hoping I can get further ahead as we start into these longer chapters.
Thanks to everyone who has been reading and leaving me comments. You all make me feel soooo good!
Now go out and do something for yourself that makes you feel good today,
Karen

Dear Sissy Karen,
You have worked so hard on this story "The Bet" It is fine writing and good writing takes time. Thank you for your efforts. Anyone who wants to see the first of the story can go back to August 5, 2009 and start from there. I did. I did not discover your blog until July 2010.

I can see how you are getting writers block because your story is so detailed. It has been a great story but before you burn yourself out, why don't you just shorten it up with one part chapters. We get the idea of what is going on in his life. Sometimes the reader would like to full in their own details. There are getting to be too many sub stories going on in this story that is slowing it down. For example, I thought he was supposed to be getting divorced on the day you are posting now. Isn't he going to go to court and see his soon-to-be ex-wife? How is she going to respond to him looking the way he does? For a story with so much back story now, some of the loose ends need to start getting wrapped up. Reading about one day over the course of three weeks is too long. Regardless, thanks for a writing it.
this sissy just loves your story, and has been reading it since you started it, keep up the good work, and hopefully "the sissy's" humiliation is increased !! ~~ pansy
Is it too preposterous to suggest letting others help with the writing? I would be willing to write a chapter but would not be at all upset if you told me to take a hike.
