Catching up.

I'm behind, once again, but what else is new?

I'm sitting in my room, surrounded by little tealights and my lava lamp for the pure and simple fact that I don't feel like dealing with my light. I've been getting headaches, and I just don't want my room that bright.

So, I've got votive holders with tealights, and my lava lamp, with my shade open revealing the snowy outside.

Yep, it's snowing again. And we just got rid of the craploads of snow on the ground.

I really wish I could take pictures, but my computer'll just crash if I try to upload them...

I have to finish Chapter Five of Lay All Your Love on Me for tomorrow, so I can e-mail it to my beta. I need 20 pages of Sophia's story for Tuesday, along with 11 Writer's Notebook entries.

Yeah. Not cool.

But, I'm slowly chugging along.

See you in a few days!

Writing Fiction!!!

So, I started my writing fiction class this week in school!

I'm loving it, and it's prompting me to write a lot more. =)

We are going to have to do peer-editing soon, and one of my friends who's been DYING to read Casual Chaos may be my editor. So, I'm going to ATTEMPT to finish Casual Chaos!!!

Lay All Your Love on Me is going awesome. I have to type up a few notebook pages, and I started the beginning of Chapter Five. It should be up Next Thursday. *crosses fingers*

That's all for me, tonight. You'll probably be hearing more about Writing Fiction soon!

REVIEWS!!!

=)

Since everyone else in my house is in a bad mood, I thought I'd post some good news!

Lay All Your Love on Me got two reviews last night! AND I found a beta. I'm so insanely excited, because I haven't gotten reviews in over a year. It's such a great feeling to know that people are actually reading my story!!!!

It's given me an extra boost to write. I wrote another page last night alone, but I've been too scatter-brained to write today with finals and everything. Tomorrow I'll be gone all day, but Sunday I should get some writing done.

I don't know what my hit-count is, but the fact that I have reviewers is making me insanely happy!

And now, I'm off to get some writing done!

Deadline? Whoops!

Yeah, so I decided I really wanted to follow through on my weekly posting again.

So, up went "Lay All Your Love on Me". I have the third chapter written, but it's waiting to be beta'd. It's just taking my beta forever (which is ultimately out of her control), so I missed my deadline on Thursday. If she's not online by tomorrow, I'm going to try to edit it on my own.

Actually, I'm highly debating finding another beta, only because my wonderful sister is pretty busy with her own works. *shrugs* I don't know...

But, I totally started a new story. I don't know...it kind of popped into my head, and wouldn't leave me alone. It's about a girl, who is "stalked" by a guy in a famous band online, because he finds her on his band's blog. I had that idea the other day, and my characters are coming along nicely, so I'm pretty proud of myself. =)

I think I'm going to work on LAYLOM now, actually, since I have my iPod going. =)

Writing Woes

Okay, they're not very big woes, but I feel the need to blog about them.

At 1:30 in the morning.

I need to re-teach myself how to write in third person again. Three years of writing in first person is driving me nuts, because random first person POV just pops into the story. It's highly annoying.

It's going along pretty good...I've only jumped around once. and I'm still working on that part, which is good.

I really really want to do a weekly update again. For one of my fanfics, Wonderful Journey, I'd update every Thursday. I did that for about a year and a half, before I took a break, and then finished it. I had started uploading the sequel, but decided to work on other things, my own works, and not fanfiction.

I don't know what I'm going to work on, yet, but I think it's in the works. I have the urge to finish another story.

=)

So, I'm going back to writing.

Old stories, New stories

After seeing Twilight, I had the urge to write the Tattoo series again. So, at 1am, I dug it up, and starting working on a scene. It's coming out, which is a good thing.

I also started a (sigh) new story. It's basically about me with how I was a few years ago, mixed in with my social situation how it is now.

...Wow, that sounded like I'm a freaking hermit. I'm really not. Hahaha.

Anywho, I like how it's going, and it's very easy to write this character, because I've lived it...kind of.

I'm starting to work on Playlists for my stories to put on my computer, and the iPod. I work a lot better when I've got music, and right now, I'm just listening to one song on repeat. That's okay, though, because it relates to my characters.

But, I need to go research England a bit. I know a bit of it, but I just need to look up some geography.

Bai!

Progress?

Why yes, I do have some progress!

There's a lot of different things running through my head at the moment...which is a sign that I'm returning to my old habits of writing five different stories at once.

Don't do it. I don't recommend it.

Anywho, it's only limited to two stories, which is okay. Well, it's actually five stories, but I'm only really kind of counting the four as one. But, it's still technically five, but oh well.

Casual Chaos is going good. I finished Opening weekend, and Mel's first day of school. Fourth weekend is also completed. I've got a couple of more weekends to go, and a couple more days of school.

Then, what I've named, "The Girls Who Kick Butt" series. I haven't done any work on the original stories themselves, but I'm working on the very last chapters of each of them, right before they all become one. I know exactly how I'm going to write the last book...well, the collaboration of the other three books. Every chapter is going to be a different person's POV...or I may just write it in third person. Third person seems to be the smartest way to do it. I may write three other books at the end of the fourth book, only because Fallen Goddess and The Tattoo book have certain things that happen that will require a follow-up. Not that I'm complaining, because they're awesome characters. I just know that it's going to be an insane amount of work.

*sigh*

I need a brownie. Catch y'all later.
