Well...I am trying to write a story. By 'trying' I mean, I'm not really trying at all. >.> I haven't written anything since the 23rd of June. It's a Vampire novel. Kind of. It's not cliche`...so, don't flame me. And no! It's not like Twilight. It's not even close to Twilight! It's way different. And you'd think my Vampires aren't even Vampires. That's how well they're keeping it a secret. xd

I have 3 stories in my "Stories Un-Finished United" folder on my desktop. One of them, I'm thinking of getting back too. It's not a biography, but kind of sort of, a biography of Kurt Cobain. And I just feel like going back to that story and getting to finish. That means more research. But...that's all right. I'm still on summer vacation! And I'll have plenty of those "THERE'S NOTHING TO DO!" gonk days left before the school year starts up again. biggrin
The other 2 stories are the one I lost, but, I've only found 113 pages of it. =[ So, if i want to continue, I need to go off from there. The last one is a fanfiction type thing of a dream I had months back. It's a bit weird, and I'm not sharing anything about it. All I will say is that Tailor Made from 'I Love New York' was in it. O.o Weird, right?

The characters of my current story are:
Asher
Astrid
Rafe
Koorey
Lucien

Those are the main characters.
.:My favourite is Asher. He's so sweet...and cool. Laid back character like most of my male characters are.
.:Rafe is the funny one of the bunch. And Asher's best friend and adopted "brother".
.:Astrid is like...really rough and tough and stuff, but, I like her. And she flass in love with Asher at the end.
.:Koorey is very sweet. She falls in love with Rafe.
.:Lucien is a very bad person. He's such a smart-aleck. I've grown to hate him. Eck. I can't belive I create characters like him.

Yesh, yesh. That's all my writing...blogging...for now. =]

I love the names and I wish you all the luck in writing your stories.

Haha I love it when I hate my character because I know im doing something right and I realize I do love them anyway despite their flaws. xD

Please! The very thought that we would flame you for writing about vampires is insulting to our professionalism. Besides, that would be expressly against the rules.

Seriously, though, I agree with Desert: I like the names.

I'm never quite to the point of hating my characters. No, that's a lie. I have one character who I hate: a corrupt city gaurd who's just a total creep. I like my smart-alecks, though. They tend to be good people, though. What I find to be difficult is when my characters don't get along but I see the good in all of them and all I want is for them to be friends . . .

Seriously, though, good luck.

I respect the not sharing fanfiction, thing. Even here I don't detail my fanfiction. Maybe sometime I will . . . but even as well as I feel I've done I worry that the plot I'm attempting is just a little too . . . unforgivable.

Seriously one more time . . . good luck.

You know, if nothing else, perhaps we should love Twilight for the legions of people it has inspired to do better. But then again, that's like loving infectious bacteria for teaching people to be careful with their raw meat.

Mmm, Lucien. I approve!

Trust me, I would not flame you about vampires.

I personally love them, especially books with vampire twists like the Dark Hunter series and the Black Dagger Brotherhood. biggrin

Ha. Sorry. Everyone seems to be flaming everyone if they even say one thing about Vampires in the WF. sweatdrop

Thanks! Yeah, I like the names too. They're different for me. I'd usually use the names from "Blood and Chocolate", but, I found some different names. Except for Rafe and Astrid. surprised

I hate some of my characters. They're just so....eeevil twisted ...and I can't stand it! Haha, you like your smart-alecks? They just annoy me. When I was writing a part, perhaps the future sequel to that story, Lucien was just annoying the crap out of me, but, I loved writing it. That's what I don't get. Loving to write about the characters I hate.

Haha...yeah... sweatdrop My fanfiction is a bit...weird in a way. I'm actually writing it, now! I found the inspiration to maybe finish it.

Thanks for the luck. I wish you luck on your writing, too. =]

July 9th


I edited 19 pages of my new story I came back to. 19 pages all together. 12 of Monday, 7 yesterday. I'm happy. Except...I'm confused. It's like a law & order type thing, and at the same time a biography, but no biography of Kurt Cobain. neutral The MC, Vivian and her brother, Aiden, and their mother, Augustina, are getting abused by their father, Alfonzo. Alfonzo has been abusing Augustina since she was pregnant, with her first kid, Aiden. Now, Alfonzo has hurt Aiden, and now Vivian. They tried to escape somewhere, but Alfonzo shot Augustina. Now she's loosing blood and could die...so...I was thinking of having a court scene. Not sure if it's nessacary...[I think I spelled that wrong] or not...I don't know. I'm confused.

That is very Law-and-Order-esque. My only question is... if he just shot the mother, then why would the court scene be next? What about a hospital visit, Alfonzo trying to act all "I didn't do it, I love my family" and the staff not accepting it? There is a big step between the act of him shooting and then a court appearance.

*Has noticed that the entire family except Vivian has a name starting with A.*

That happens with the hospital visit and Alfonzo acting all innicent [I know I spelled that wrong >.>] and stuff. That happens. But, what I'm saying is I don't know if the court scene should even be in there. I think it should...I just don't know if it would be...like...something big. I still have to research what goes on in courts. And watching Law and Order helps...los...


**Haha...I just realized that now, too. xP**

**The Moving truck is getting packed today! Moving back!**

....

Last night I wrote I think 3 pages. And that is ok for me! I haven't written that many in a while. I'm getting there. It's...33 pages and 17, 183 words! Only 2,000 more words than it was before I started writing. I'm happy. (: And...what got me to that writing was Classical Music! Weird, right? I'm usually listening to the Heavy Metal/Hard Rock stuff. But yeah, I put in a Keith Urban CD and I couldn't concentrate. It was one of his oooolllld CDs and like...I only listened to it once before and i bought it like 2 years ago. D: Yeah, I know. But, I happen to own this Classical CD called "Someday: The String Quartet Tribute to Nickelback" and I listened to that whole album. Then, when that ended [since, I had to put that with my other CDs because they were going to get packed!] I just listened to Skillet. xD Yay. I have to try to find the piano tribute to them....

I have a hard time writing to most rock and pop unless it's a funny scene. I require techno or classical otherwise. Which is strange. People say my playlist looks like it belongs at a roller disco.

Anyway! 2,000 words is pretty darn awesome. I think you should pat yourself on the back!
