One year.

Exactly one year ago i jotted down the very first words of a draft which became a my So called "novel". Since then I have typed thousands of phrases and became quite familiar with the term Ctrl Alt Delete...HAHA! Random thoughts turned into ideas, which turned into a paragraphs, that changed the entire setting of my book! So what was a "suspenseful romance" turned into a "Suspenseful horror" in the time span of about 365 short days. 25,000 words exactly and WAY more to come

Aquarium!

We did it! we went on our very first HIGH school Field trip...I t was a blast!!!! I took my "Big camera" with me so i was able to capture all those macro moments. I'm only going to post 2 pictures..because I'm lazy.  But I'm definitely going to be posting more pictures, because next week is HOMECOMING week! Yippee! And student government asked me to shoot the pictures for homecoming week/homecoming! I AM SO EXCITED! but that means I have to bring my entire camera bag to school evry single day! yay! And its perfect because I just got this insanely, awesome, reversible camera strap cover, made originally by a fabulous photographer Allie Reid, actually I won a contest on her blog (which you should checkout/follow) Anyways I have yet to find shoes, but I have my dress, jewelry, makeup and I finally bagged a date for homecoming, not to mention that I'm going to a humongous sleep over afterwards! I going to try to post sooner/more often!
(Only about 1/4 of the entire gruop, I'm next to the boy in the green shirt)

Love,

SEPTEMBER????


September already????? what the heck! A few useless complications in my life for September:
  1. Homecoming is in less than a month...OH Ma' gosh! how do you spell STRESS? I went shopping with my best buds yesterday and I found the most beautiful dress ever! its champagne...yes champagne! My theme is gold, ssh don't tell! I will post a picture SOON! It seems like everyone is doing Blue, pink, or black...no way, I said! But it was indeed very hard to find a "decent dress" decent meaning one that does not expose too much "Cleavage"...or whatever, or that is so short I can't even sit down, or one that Brightly colored (i hate bright colors) Plus having a super-strict, Christian private school does not help this process in any way! But anyways I am still very excited for homecoming!
  2. My beloved Aunt and Uncle are moving back from Hawaii! They have been living there on Oahu for about 5-6 years I guess. And NO I did not get the luxury privileged of going to visit. But I was SO, so, so , so ,so close to going!!! I think I could still cry about it! LOL. they arrive October 15th so we are counting down :D 




And Both of my novels are coming along GREAT! the first one is around 50 pages now, and the second is around 30!!! I am so excited!

what do you think the theme for blog should be for fall?

Have been living off of coffee and I miss my Bloggers!

   HEYYYYYY! So sorry I haven't blogged in a while!!! I had to be at school, obviously. So for the past few days I've been writing papers, algebra 1, chores and writing 2 novels...yeah. But I try to update my twitter (left side bar) every day, so you will hear from me! LOL! Since I started school I find that I have a lot less time to do what ever I want..heh heh. But I was locker robbed today! lol well not really, but I left my locker open for just one class and came back to find missing algebra books...lol which were neatly placed on my desk in my next class! LOL I asked my friends and no one "saw anything"...I think I know who did it! LOL oh well! Well tomorrows Friday! and I'll try to post/comment more often. 
<3 t

Ps.
Bleah Brianne! words cannot explain how sorry I am, for not guest blogging! I will email you very soon! I promise! <3 tay

So far...

It's been exactly 40 days since I started my first suspense novel. So far I have 21 pages, and 9,366 words. and I am 3/4 of the way done with chapter 4!!! This is the fastest I have ever worked on a novel. It takes me about two days to write and 8-10 paged chapter. So I'll probably be finished in mid December or late January. 

  I think I could get it done sooner, But my school starts August 10th!!! It's a private school, so that means that there will be a substantial amount of homework, So that sort of limits my writing time in the evening; especially when I have to be in bed by 9 pm. (usually I stay up until 1 am or later writing) But I'm really excited.

I know your sick of this...Novel #3!!!

    Since, Novel number 2 is still an "Iffy"  I was bored. I had no clue what to write about. So I prayed. BOOM! I fell into this random deep sleep; and proceeded to dream the most crazy, awesome, extraordinary dream, EVER!!! And no, you may not what it was about... :<(. I immediately began to outline! and then I got caught up in it (Like always) and somehow I now have over 800 words in 3 pages. Don't ask.
Since you guys are so cool I'll Tell you the title and give you the first sentence, Though it might be kind of hard for you to understand.
Title: The Revelation. *SCREAMS*
Sentence: Father had installed metal plates over the glass doors. At this point not even metal could keep them out.
Like I said, your probably like 'what the heck?'
But that's all I'm going to say.

#2

I'm proud to announce that I am writing my second novel (It's actually a novella) I have the main story layout planned and I probably won't start "officially" writing it until late July or August (Just because I want to get a little further in my current Novel that I've been writing since November.) I am not releasing any title information right now, but I'll probably publish it anonymously (Under a pen name).

Here's a sample:

"And when you are lost, alone, and afraid, HE will guide you. HE will carry you home."

I'm SO excited!

My most embarrassing moment ever is...
When my friend and I were walking around the block in my neighborhood. I had this bright idea that we should jump the fence so we'd end up at my house sooner. so we went around the side of this random house and jumped the fence. then we realized that it wasn't my backyard. and there was a bunch of people sitting outside. and they saw us. so we quickly jumped back over the fence and ran back to my house with red faces burning of embarrassment! LOL

question for my cyber, writer friends.

OK I started my first novel in November. It's a really great story. OK, here's my question; is it terribly pitiful that after 3 months and 8 days of brainstorming and taking notes, I'm only in the middle of chapter two?

I really want your honest opinion. leave me an anonymous comment if you have to :P
