Hey everyone! It's that time of the year again. Now last year I ran out of time to do this, but this year I am fully, and whole-heartedly participating. NaNoWriMo is NAtional Novel Writing Month. You write a novel in thirty days with a word count goal. My goal is 50,000 words (I'm sure I can do more, but I don't want to push my luck if anything comes up).

    Hey! What's been happening? Well isn't that just splendid! You wanna know what's up here?
I'M GOING TO TAKE ONLINE CREATIVE WRITING COURSES! YAY!
    Starting sometime in September/October. Yay me! Anyways, I thought maybe I'd share a way for you guys to take creative writing courses. Go onto Google or Bing or something and search for writing courses. Or you can go to cummunity colleges and try to find one that offers a writing program.
    I'm doing online creative writing courses from NOV...

    Those of you who like stories about discrimination and love should read Whispers. Those of you who like adventure, mythical and paranormal creatures mixed with a little romance should read Phoenix. Or you can read both! right now, Whispers is more polished up than Phoenix. Then again, Phoenix is a novella, an idea I'm toying with, while Whispers is a novel-in-progress and will take some time to finish.
    I updated them last a few days ago, and I probably won't be updating them for anothe...

    I think that's French for 'it's finished!' though I could be wrong because my French is terrible, even though I love certain words in the language.
    Anywho, I have finished The Ghost Of My Dead Soulmate! It's two hours long, and like I said, it's a sort-of short story. I think it's called a novella. I suck at making really short stories but I'm okay at the two-hour long ones. I either have too much to write, or too little. This is one of the second.
    But anyway, it's finished, and I m...

    Well, we've all heard of soulmates. I have never actually written about something like soulmates or ghosts before, so this will be interesting, if not for you then for me.
    You will find some info about The Ghost Of My Dead Soulmate in the short stories page. It's not going to be a novel, but it's not going to be a two-page story either. But it's going to be shorter than I would usually do.

The cover, below:


    Basically it's about a girl named Jade who everyone hates. Jade meets this gh...

    Hmm, so lately I've re-thought my idea of Syren. I think I will continue writing it. Well, I already have. I just published another chapter. But if your too lazy to see it then here it is:

            I felt sick to my stomach. Kelly believed her. Kelly believed that the Syren was telling the truth. He believed that… monster over his faith in me. But really, I was to blame for that. All of those images were true.

           But she only showed part of the truth. The demon. She didn’...

    I'm tired and even though it's the summer holidays I have rarely been getting enough sleep. I wake in the afternoon and go to bed late trying to write but become tired and dreary the latter it gets.
    But I have been writing. I've been copying 'Protector' from my notebook recently. I haven't finished, thats granted, but I'm on chapter two and only have a few more pages to copy before I can publish that chapter. So I will give you the smidget that I have written so far. Here is the excerp...

    Alright I'm going to be honest with you. I have writers block. I don't know what to write anymore for Syren. I am open to suggestions. Just leave me a message on Figment or send me an e-mail at kacii.figment@hotmail.com Until I have some idea of what to write Syren will not continue.

    There is a song by someone I do not know the name of who wrote a song called Friday. Everyone at achool sings it and it drives me insane even though I have never heard the song.
    But that's not why I am writing this post. Friday is my first day of summer vacation. So I know I haven't added another chapter in two weeks and it is killing me as much as it is killing you. Actually, it's probably killing me more, but I can't judge how much you like my writing. I could be atrocious.
    So sta...

    Sorry for not coming through with that chapter people! I really did want to publish it last weekend, but annoyingly I had to do a bunch of homework so I didn't get a chance to finish it. And this weeks been really busy for me what with rehersel for the Tempest, by William Shakespeare (dunno if I spelled that right and I honestly do not care. I don't like his work but I have been cornered into doing this play which gives me less time to wright! Grrr) and with exams coming up in one week.

    Ohmigod I'm exhausted. I have missed my school bus every day this week. Kind of sad, don't you think? But what's weird is I go to bed fairly early. I just can't fall asleep once I'm in bed. I am having terrible insomnia and it doesn't help that one of my cats sleeps on my bed then gets up to walk to the other side of the bed every half hour.
    So if you're wondering why I did such a short, crappy chapter, you now know why. But hey, I might as well give you a little insight on what's to c...

    Okay please do NOT kill me. I have to be alive to wright. I have deleted Falling Parallel (duh, captain obvious) from Figment. And I have very good reason. I really want to take up wrighting as a career, even though I'm only fourteen. Start off young right?
    So I have a thousand ideas stuck in my head and I plan to put them on paper. I think that since Falling Parallel is a very original idea of mine, I'm going to try to publish that first.
    I am going to focus my attention on finishi...

    I've been waiting for this movie to come out forever! I have this app on my iPod called Flixster which tells me when movies are going to come out in the theaters, on dvd, and all that good stuff. If you're a fan of the Twilight Saga then part one of Breaking Dawn comes out on November 18th, I believe.
    Anyway, since I've known about the new Pirates of the Carribean movie coming out since like christmas I've been exeberant (right word? yes? no?) So I'm excited about that. Can't wait to s...

    Okay! So I'm happy to say that 'Falling Parallel' has made a nice start. I think it's got twelve likes so far, which might not seem like a lot, but it means a lot to me. I didn't know how people were going to react to Falling Parallel. It's rough and rushed, only a rough draft.
    So now that I know that I'm not going to delete it because of it's different personality as a story, I can relax and start to think about what comes next.
    I have a huge problem, actually. With Syren I'm start...
