I hate doctors. Not the doctors themselves, of course. Just the smell of antiseptic. I went to the doctor yesterday and I still feel sore where he injected me with something in a needle. I am so glad that I put Violet and all of the other mutants through this all the time instead of me.
I don't know why I am telling you guys this. Heh, I'm so shameless, telling you guys about this!
Anyway, I am still on chapter ten on Violet's Flame. I am really starting to like Violet's Flame now. I'm telling ya'll now: if you like New Orleans, you are going to LOVE Violet's Flame, c'ause I know I do!
... I just realized that I was listening to Pain by Three Days Grace when I wrote about my experience at the doctor. Wow.
I guess I will go go write in Violet's Flame until I my brain turns to mush from writing. See ya'll later!

Best. Package. Ever.
Hey guys! There I was, watching Celebrity Ghost Stories, when my dog, Dartanyon, started barking and going absolutely nuts. My dad answered the door, and came back carrying two large boxes addressed to me. Lo and behold, as I opened those two boxes, I revealed something amazing. Sitting in those boxes were 35 copies of Violet! Just when I thought it couldn't get any better, I looked online and found that a book that I really wanted and that wasn't supposed to come out until February actually came out a few days ago! AND there is a 15% off deal today at Barnes and Noble, so I don't have to pay full price! OMG!!! I sound like such a girl right now, it's unbelievable!
I will defiantly upload a picture of all of my books later, and maybe a little of the pictures I took in New Orleans. First of all, I have to figure out which pictures to upload.... I guess I'll see ya'll later! Now I will go shout into a pillow and scream out my enthusiasm. Bye!

I'm Back!
Hey guys! I've been pretty busy writing in Violet's Flame, so I haven't gotten a chance to write on my blog. Eh, who am I kidding? I wasn't writing in Violets's Flame--I've been playing Legend of Zelda. That game is just so ADDICTING! Anyways, Violet's Flame is probably going to be a bit shorter than Violet, due to the fact that the chapters are shorter than I thought. I'm on chapter nine right now, and I don't want to criticize my own books, but I really think that Violet is better than Violet's Flame. I don't know why, though. It just seems like when writing with Severin in the picture, writing almost came naturally to me. Now writing is getting a little challenging, but I'm getting better at it.
A lot of people are telling me that they can't wait for Violet's Flame to come out. Honestly, despite what I said earlier about Violet's Flame, I am also getting excited about it. It really has been a dream come true to see people interested in my ideas, even though they could sometimes be a little "out-there". Seriously, the things I usually think about could make me millions of $ if I would actually take the time to write them down. Now I must go get ready for a rodeo. See ya'll later!

A Sneak Peek at Violet's Flame!
Hey, guys! Just because I'm nice, and also considering the fact that it is eleven at night and I am writing in Violet's Flame, I decided to give you guys a short preview of Violet's Flame! Yay! I will only give you guys a part of the first chapter instead of the whole chapter due to the fact that this chapter is longer than I had originally planned. Here you go!
Chapter One
“Where am I?” Steve asked suddenly, startling me and
Candy. I jumped up from my bed and practically ran over to him, feeling his
head for any fevers. “He’s finally awake?” Candy, my little six year old
companion, asked as she rubbed her eyes and made her way over to me. I felt a
surge of relief when I felt Steve’s small horns poking out gently beneath his
hair.
Yeah, you heard me right. You see, Steve and I are a
special kind of creature called the ‘Dragon Kin’, while Candy is a regular
mutant child called a ‘Moleworm’. Up until a few hours ago, I hadn’t realized
that Steve was a Dragon Kin, same as me. Our guardian, Aaron Richard, is the
same as me, as well as a boy named Severin. My heart pulled uncomfortably at
the thought of him, and I had to fight a sudden urge of tears that threatened
to spill. Presently, we are in some part of Canada , and Aaron was at the library, using one of their
computers to buy all of us a plane ticket to New Orleans to find Severin. He had been kidnapped by the Dragon
Kin Hunters in their attempt to steal my blood, and now they were holding him
captive somewhere in New
Orleans , doing
who-knows-what to him.
“Don’t freak out, but you aren’t in Wisconsin anymore,” I told him softly, feeling a familiar rush
of heat when he grasped my hand. We had met him in Wisconsin , the place where he had supposedly grown up. “Then
where am I? How did I get here?” he asked, and would have been in a panic if
his body wasn’t so weak from just waking up from the treatment of the Draki Blood,
the blood of our ancestors that helps us become what we are. Right after the
attack from the Dragon Kin Hunters, right after Severin had gotten kidnapped,
Aaron had brought us home and injected his own blood into Steve’s arm. He had
passed out after that, and that is where we are right now.
“Listen,
we’ll explain later, when Aaron gets back. For now, just rest,” I told him,
gently but firmly. Then I blushed at the absurdity of what I was asking. How
can someone go back to resting when they didn’t know where they were? Steve’s
hand was still grasping my hand tightly, so hard it began to bruise.
This is all that I will give ya'll for now. Don't be greedy and try to ask me for more, because I think I might add a little bit more at a later time. That is all for now, so I guess I'll see ya'll later!

Hey, guys! Guess what I just did! I just ordered my books for Violet, and I am also almost on chapter eight in Violet's Flame.

Now I must go and get ready for a meeting in a few minutes. See ya'll later, and I will update about my books whenever I can!

Sailor Moon Is Back!
Hey, guys! I just got finished with my short (translation: long) break from writing, so I am about to go write some more. I thought I might as well write in here first in case I forget later on. I am currently on chapter six, page sixteen. Keep your fingers crossed, so that I might publish Violet's Flame soon!
I feel so immature now. I was at Walmart yesterday, and I just happened to see manga for Sailor Moon on a bookshelf. Ever since, I have had the theme song stuck in my head! Sailor Moon is this really old kid's show that stopped airing sometime in the 1990s, but now we need to lock the doors and close the windows, Sailor Moon is making a comeback! I tried to make the theme song go away by watching Tsubasa Chronicles, but it didn't work. Oh well. I guess I'll see you guys tomorrow. See ya'll later!
