They are kind of scrumptious. Whoops~
Ah, another long week is over and I'm enjoying my Saturday night (soon to be Sunday morning). I have all these good prose ideas in my head, but I think I'm being lazy cause I haven't typed up any of them! Except one, but that was from a while ago. At least I managed to respond back to ladylilith's collab. =] I'm so excited about it.

I know I should enter some contests soon, but I'm being lazy once again! I can't believe Thanksgiving is coming up this week! Gah. And then I get my braces off, and then CHRISTMAS! =] My Grandma is coming down for a week too! It's going to be great.

I swear that one day my Shoutboard is going to bitchslap me because of the abuse I put it through. Or maybe its water will break and I'll have to put my stamps on all these mini Shoutboards. It does look like its hitting the 9-month period. (I swear I didn't call it fat!)

So, I debated on what CSS I would use this time. I made me a Wolverine one. But I like my Gambit one a lot. So, Wolverine will just have to wait till next time to make an appearance in my journal. *mumbles about smexy Hugh Jackson*

So, offer still stands to do collabs and if y'all want to write me love letters like the amazing did, well, that'd be swell.

A Meme

1. What led you to write?
I was tired of seeing blank paper in front of me, so I just grabbed the first idea, and kind of went from there.

2. When did you start writing?
In third grade I wrote nonsensical, sweet poems, and then in 8th grade I picked my poetry back up and tried from there.

3. What does writing represent in your life?
It represents my love of stories and how I need to just let what I'm thinking go, all the things I want to happen to people. To just make the readers happy and make them experience their dreams.

4. Are you happy with your current style?
I'm satisfied with it, but I wish that I had more life experience so I would be able to truly say all this mushy romance stuff without bullshitting it.

5. Do you do editing?
=] Nah, but if anyone asks, I'll do it. I edit as I go in my own pieces though.

6. Do you read about writing (creative writing books, grammar books...)?
Sometimes, I'll see where an author has advice in their book about something, and I'll stop and read it. Some of it has actually helped.

7. Favorite genre?
I'm such a sucker for romance and life. (HISTORY ALSO!)

8. Favorite author(s)?
Garth Nix, Neil Gaimen, Sarah Dessen, Nora Roberts, Robin McKinley, Johanna Lindsey, Meg Cabot, D.J. MacHale, C.L. Wilson, Jack London

9. Favorite book?
I don't like to pick, at all. I can tell you some series though.
Tairen Soul Quintet
Pendragon Series
Keys of the Kingdom series
The Mallory's series
Gallagher Family Series

10. What do you prefer to write?
I prefer to write about these characters that kind of pop up in my head, or just about romance scenes that I would like to experience or wouldn't.

11. Is there anything you can't write??
RHYME + ME = OH HELL NO

12. What is the weirdest thing you have ever written?
Hmmm. Probably something about this Old Man who smiled for a kid.

13. Choose a topic: love, death, friendship. Now write a couple of lines about it.
Don't go. Each time you breath i hear your heart give one less pulse. All these days went by where i thought we still had decades left to go. This is it though, you're gone. How could you leave me?

14. Do you think you have influences from any professional writer? if so, which ones?
Maybe I do. I admire Sarah Dessen's character interpretation. Meg Cabot's humor. Gaimen's, Nix's, and MacHale's ability to intertwine so much fantasy. London's sense of humanity. Roberts', Lindsey's, and McKinley's romance. They all make me want to combine my talents into something great.

15. Worst book you have read so far?
Great Expectations by Charles Dickens. It should be burnt many times over.

16. Why is it so bad, in your opinion?
-Boring.
-Boring.
-No plot.
-WHINY ASS CHARACTERS

17. Choose one of your characters and describe them in 3 words.
Hawk- mysterious, mischievous, mmmmmmmmsmexy.

18. Does your character feel 'alive'?
God yes. I inject him everywhere to get a sense of how he would deal with some situations.

19. Could you kill this character?
O_O I would cry if I did that.

20. Do you hate any of your own characters?
I haven't created a character that I hated.

21. Now, let's be honest. Every writer has their own favorite creation: what's your favorite story, out of everything you have written/planned to write? and character?
Story: Food Love
Character: Wolf and Hawk are pretty much my duo of amazingness.

22. Have you ever abandoned an idea for a story? Why?
I stopped writing one story because I felt it was taken too much from a cartoon I saw. I want to go back to it though. Start over and work it into a new world.

23. Have you ever deleted a whole piece of work? Why?
Yes. It just wasn't going anywhere. I couldn't make heads or tails of it.


Quotes from Upcoming Pieces

"She wears red stilettos with glittery bows. It reminds me of Kansas and how she obviously doesn’t belong here. I survey the rest of this Dorothy-body and catch my fleeing breath with my fingertips and inhale my heart again."

I think I've made a long enough journal. Have a happy Thanksgiving everyone! Tango Out!

P.S. I writing.
