For the last two years I have been slowly writing SO2. I am so close to the planned finish I can smell it. Teek has been helping with proofreading, and giving story ideas. She has even written a whole chapter. I am hoping that I will be done by the first week of November.
As of right now S02 is 38+ chapters long with 4 related canon stories following a side character fully written. There is one non-canon story [call it fan fiction but written by me] featuring Lily that I am on the fence on posting.
Stuff that are planned:
Three more days on the timeline have to be written before I can post chapter 1 of SO2.
Two more stories following the side character.
One story that follows Lily in the future is in my head but I really want to finish SO2.
SO3 has been researched but probably won't be written right after SO2 because I might want a change of pace.

We Can Wait
The creative urge does not go in straight lines, more like stits and farts. I can confirm that! You post when you are ready and when it feels like your baby will fly.
i did not remember
the original story so going back and reading it again .as soon as i read the first few lines i remember it and how much fun it was to read .still going to reread it just as a refresher. thank you for book 2 i think we need more stories like these that leave us feeling good after its finished.
Whole Chapter?
I would not say I wrote a whole chapter. Yes, you turned it sort of into a whole chapter, but you (rightly so) don't call it a whole chapter in the story. I just contributed one scene which you added between two of your chapters. Don't give me credit where it doesn't belong. The Special Offer stories, and their universe side stories, are all yours, created from your muse. I have enjoyed helping edit, research, and brainstorm with you, but I am nothing more than a minor side character on this journey.
For you readers out there, the original Special Offer story had 10 chapters. It is a very short story compared to Special Offer 2. I have enjoyed working with Becky Anne as she wrote these new additions to her Katie Ann Universe. Note: Special Offer is nine years in the future from Katie Ann, so any characters who show up in a Cross-over event (or maybe I should call it a guest appearance) are not exactly the same as they were in Katie Ann. I like that approach and maybe how I might consider doing a cross-over event in one of my future stories. Anyways, Becky Anne and I are working hard to get these new additions out to you readers. I think you will be happy with the end results of several hard years of work. She has done a good job expanding upon the original Special Offer story and characters. Lily and Sammie are back with new challenges and new adventures. Laughter, worry, and tears can be experienced throughout the story. Get your leotard and dance shoes out, for they will be dancing into your lives soon.
Keep Smiling, Keep Writing
