So, I'm still sick :( That's why I haven't really been posting much. Homework+school+sick Brandie= no fun. No fun at all. So anyways, I got to see A. last night, and it was really nice until he started feeling bad for a certain thing I won't say, and decided he wouldn't touch me for a half hour :( I got all sad and sat and watched The Ring with ( Read more... )

So today, I finally got a visit from my Muse, Nu. Now, Nu is a fictional character I made up that comments and insults all of my work, bluntly states her opinions about every situation, and has a habit showing up on any paper i can get ahold of. And finally, FINALLY, she's back. With a new design. Isn't this amazing?! It means I can finally start ( Read more... )

So the first two days of school are over! Finally! And I got the two classes I wanted most, which are AP Psychology and Creative Writing. AND, as a bonus, both of those teachers are freakin' amazing and I think slightly insane.

So, my first assignment was to write a flash fiction piece including a waitress who likes her menus to rhyme as one of the ( Read more... )

So, tomorrow school starts. Eew D:< eew, eew, eew.

Now that that's outta' my system!

For a while me and A. have been writing a book together called The Noble's Son. We're about 22 chapters into the story, and it's about a young girl named Meryil who's abused by her father and a young boy named Irian who leads an uneventful life. They both live in ( Read more... )

So, after a few days of drama with the family at la casa de mi padre, coming to my moms to an eventful time is unusually relaxing. I do still have to work on my art projects and read my books, but the youngun's (my little brother and sister) are starting school wednesday so I have all week to do that by myself, with no interruptions. AND I get to ( Read more... )

So today went pretty ok. I went shopping for school clothes (though I hate shopping. My dad and stepmom told me we couldn't leave unless I picked out a certain number of things *twitches*), I FINALLY got ahold of the stupid canadian book I need for creative writing (why my teacher would pick a book only published in Canada, who knows?), and I'm ( Read more... )

So, first let me say that "cheese and crackers" is my new favorite saying simply because I met a thirty+ year old man who would say it every 15 minutes.

Now, let me say that this month in general has really sucked fish. My writing has turned to crap, and I don't know how to fix it. I'm seriously having some issues with getting motivated enough to ( Read more... )

I'm seriously bored, like, I-want-to-shoot-myself-in-the-foot-because-it'll-provide-something-to-do bored. SO! Until I figure out what to do I'm going to create a character profile for Miss Addy, and it'll probably contain the most miniscule of details simply because it can. This means I'll probably post later tonight about how my day has actually ( Read more... )

So, I figured I'd post the prologue of a story I'm working on and then have a mini-rant about what I do and do not like about it. Yes, I write. A lot. It's an obsession.

So! Here it is.
