Chapter 3 - Hard-Boiled Series

So far I have finished “Hard-Boiled”, I´m still writing “The Man In The Park”. All other parts are only planned. First I thought only to write one story, but now this developed to a series, or maybe better, I hope this will develop into a series. I needed around one month to write "Hard-Boiled" with its 25 pages. I think the other parts will be not longer, more likely shorter. I like "Hard-Boiled" for its briefness and I will continue with this. I also enjoy Los Angeles as space of action and look forward to be again in this city. "Wear Some Flowers In Your Hair" should begin in Los Angeles to move then to San Francisco. I also look forward to be in this city. But the San Francisco part I can not write before I was in this city. Therefore I have to write the rest of "The Man In The Park", three complete stories and the beginning of "Wear Some Flowers In Your Hair". Should be no problem till the end of the year!

"My Sweet Little Sixteen":

I´ve finished this part today. Tomorrow I will write the first chapter of "Wear Some Flowers In Your Hair". Therewith the hard-boiled series will come to an end, at least till I was in San Francisco. But still nearly ten weeks till my next aviation - what will happen? And after the weeks in the US? A strange, very strange feeling......

I like to add, that since some time now, the hard-boild stories are not separate stories for me any longer. Sure, they base on each other, but I mean it in this way. I see a book in front of me, let the title be something like "L.A. Story". The stories "Hard-Boiled", "The Man In The Park" and so on would be the chapters of this story. The chapters of "Hardboiled" and so on would be then sub-chapters. The last chapter "Wear Some Flowers In Your Hair" would have only one sub-chapter and would be the end of "L.A. Story". For me this part is finished. I don´t think I will, as I thought before, continue with "Wear Some Flowers In Your Hair" after my stay in San Francisco. The whole part "The Day, When Nobody Died" will come to an end in January. "Californian Dreams And Hopes" should be a transition like "L.A. Poetry". And what maybe will come then, will be decided during my next stay in California.
