...it's the banner at the top? If I click on that, I get to the list and I can see the latest title in it too (thanks!). Is anyone else still here? I'm writing on, but it's all spin-offs of spin-offs, so not posting (just amusing myself). And I had started a Persuasion story.by Lise - A Novel Idea

Chapter Eighteen It was dangerous out there, Anna Margaret noticed when she set just one foot outside of the restaurant to see if everything was over and spectators were leaving. RTA jumped on her almost immediately. She had no idea if Frederick was going to come from the same direction, but such media ambushes were probably happening to him elsewhere as well.

Chapter Seventeen German commentary was more informed than RTA, as usual, both during the race and after. The commentators could hardly keep the emotions out of their voices. “And his father, King Henri, did not want him to row. He secretly rowed in Germany, but he could only row for his own country after his father died. This is a big middle finger towards his father.” “Look at how he’s sitby Lise - A Novel Idea

Chapter Sixteen The next day Anna Margaret had nothing to do except to catch up with all the news from the day before. Frederick had won his semifinal – she knew that. He had said something about sponsors and she had said something about sponsors – she knew that too. Florian, Murielle and Julian had been to the National House again – she knew that, but nothing worth mentioning had happenedby Lise - A Novel Idea

Chapter Fifteen RTA found her again now that she was sitting down with a quiet baby. She heaved an inward sigh of resignation and looked back at them. “Madam Prime Minister, can we ask for you opinion on the fact that Prince Frederick didn’t attend a sponsor meeting?” “You’ll have to give me more context.” She had no idea where this came from all of a sudden. “We heard he was expected at aby Lise - A Novel Idea

Chapter Fourteen When they got to the house, it turned out that Frederick’s mother was about to arrive. Anna Margaret had not known, but she supposed it made sense that it was more comfortable not to drive down very early in the morning. And it did not affect her anyway, because Isabelle put her mother in Murielle’s room. It seemed that every day they tried out something new, because todayby Lise - A Novel Idea

Chapter Twelve Anna Margaret and Isabelle had waited patiently until everyone had finished chatting to Frederick – or maybe he had politely asked them to come back the day after tomorrow – and then they had walked to the house. He had swum for a bit with Alex and then had a little time alone with his wife. Anna Margaret did not care if anyone was going to say anything about that. “Seeing yoby Lise - A Novel Idea

Chapter Thirteen Isabelle amazingly agreed to be photographed getting into the pool. Anna Margaret did not know how persuasive Philip had been. Florian was carried, even though he had continued to believe until the very end that his father could not do that. He had nevertheless been curious enough to play along.

It did that with chapter 12, and I never noticed until I posted 13. Then I reposted 12 and checked THAT, but never checked 13. I usually do a preview, check and correct in Word, and then post the corrected text, not checking the post. Must change my MO if this continues to happen.by Lise - A Novel Idea

Chapter Eleven Anna Margaret and Isabelle were guided towards the exclusive lounge, where they were given day passes. They were also offered champagne and wine, and given a personal hostess. “Water, please, we are breastfeeding,” said Isabelle. She checked her phone. Five more minutes. The space was surprisingly empty. “How nice, you don’t even have to go out when it’s raining,” she said asby Lise - A Novel Idea

Chapter Ten The family had gone to a beach on a lake, but no one who knew about them had discovered that place yet. When they came back, Anna Margaret had Florian take photos of Alex in his new outfit for their Instagram account. Florian was pretty thrilled with the assignment. He had attended a high-profile dinner as a crown prince a few days ago, but he had moved into the family villa asby Lise - A Novel Idea

Chapter Nine The next day Anna Margaret worked. She had brought things to read and she replied to emails. Frederick texted her that Rick had a little something for Alex and asked if she could meet him while he trained. She agreed to meet Rick in a café in town and he gave her a package. It contained the mascot and a small Olympic outfit. “My wife made that,” Rick said proudly. “Now can weby Lise - A Novel Idea

Chapter Eight Anna Margaret walked back. This time when she passed the supermarket, she actually had her hands free. This morning she had been carrying Alex in his carrier, but now she was pushing the pram and could stop to buy some food. Someone had been out to buy something yesterday or Isabelle had brought everything from home, because they had had something to eat, but now she considereby Lise - A Novel Idea

Chapter Seven The opening ceremony was that evening. The Chef de Mission had released the names of the flag bearers a few hours in advance and Frederick was not one of them, but his family had all known that. People at home were surprised that he was not holding the flag.

Chapter Six On her last afternoon in the office, there were more curious questions that her spokesman needed input on. They scheduled another coffee session before she would go home to pack for Paris. For herself it was mostly clothes, but Alex needed a lot more. “Today we get to the interesting parts,” said Franky. “There were more that you’ve already given answers to earlier, so won’t repeby Lise - A Novel Idea

Chapter Five The assembling of the furniture had been taken care of in three hours and had cost her 300 euros. Everyone had contributed in his or her own way, after all, even the girl who had mostly spent her time entertaining Alex and then arranging the tables and chairs in a welcoming way.

Chapter Four Frederick had texted Anna Margaret last night that he had arrived safely. They had not phoned because he knew she was busy and when she was done, she thought he might be in bed. This morning the texting had resumed. She received photos of the room, the apartment, the village, his breakfast and the bus ride to the rowing course.

It has to be just an ego thing. The poster has made a little group where the stories are posted and there's always the adoring comments about how wonderful she is for doing this and how much people miss the stories. I can totally see certain personalities doing that. But, there are also comments from others who are making statements about how they would like to edit the stories and other similaby Lise - Tea Room

What's in it for this person? She could just give a link to the story at its original location rather than copying and pasting it at another site, or am I thinking too simple?by Lise - Tea Room

Chapter Three Anna Margaret briefly read over the list and then carried it into the coffee room with Alex in his bouncer. He was not going to get coffee, or even milk, only company and people to watch. There were more people than usual interested in the list of questions. The room was packed. Even the ones whose specialty lay in other fields were now suddenly thirsty and eager for a break. “by Lise - A Novel Idea

Chapter Two “I tried to explain, but it was hard,” Anna Margaret said when she went to pick up Alex after she left the TV studio. She had an inexplicable urge to defend herself before anyone even said anything. Philip and Isabelle might not have watched, but they knew where she had been and why. “We saw,” Philip said drily.

This follows the story that is still on the board, but I had to update the date in this to 2024 :-) I have all these WIPs hanging around and this one is mostly finished now, though I keep thinking of more to fill it in with Chapter One It was tiresome.
