Welcome to the place where my stories will be set free.
1. Many Things



So I am gingerly typing at school to start this blog post, because for some reason my internet at my home is refusing to cooperate, and has probably died because it won't even show up on my computer that it exists.

Many things have been going on, including my self-inflicted hermitage to get writing done when I would otherwise be doing things like actually seeing others in public.  I've been talking to my cats a lot instead.  They don't give good advice.

Anyway, I have been needing to post an update for a while now.  I am editing, editing, editing The Unicorn's Song.  I am past half way, which is awesome, but also means that I am progressing at a sloth-like rate.  Mostly because of distractions.  The first large distraction was the short story I wrote called "Eleven," and now I have a new one.  But it's not a short story!  It is another novel!! *sob* I just have to take a break and a breath.  Hold please.......................... okay.

The new one, for lack of a better name, I am calling Cervinia. I may post the first page or something, but it is just barely past the legal pad outline stage.  It has been a great distraction, because sometimes I just need fresh characters to think about.  Kora and Evan have been in my brain for soooo long.  I probably just need to believe that I can create other characters, like Etari Luna from "Eleven." 

Alas, I must admit that I will only be posting The Unicorn's Song up to chapter thirteen.  The rest can be saved for the book!  When I can get the editing done that is.  I can now say that I have outlined the crap out of the entire story, which will take four books to complete.  Please send me some good juju!  What a feat that will be.

If I have to go back to Starbucks to use the internet, lord help me...



Just as a happy after thought, a Kindergartener not only licked the glue bottle, but ate a crayon in art today.  He was "hungry."
