Teens Writing for Teens, the 5th

Ew, school. That is all. (After 11 hours on campus today, I am sick of school.)

I'm going to live on campus when I go to uni, so I'll be there for a lot more than 11 hours XD

I'm on campus 24/7 except for the occasional Saturday excursion. I'm going to try to bring a car up next year.

I couldn't do it. I am perfectly all right with living at home until I graduate.

I'm nine hours away from home so...

Ten. More. Minutes.

Oh hi there AW...I forgot I had you pulled up...

I'm so about to crash.

So, it's official.

I am madly, deeply, head over heels, fall off a cliff CRAZY in love with a girl.

AND HERE'S THE TWIST

She loves me back!

DDDDDD

Zoom! That's amazing news! Congrats!

Hi, guys.

Skype is being weird. :/

I'm so screwed. Too much procrastination.

Congrats mate, all the best.

Yay Zoom!

I could never live at home during university. I didn't even know it was technically an option until spring. I don't want to live at home.

Hello, Tally.

Have you ever had problems with the Skype programme not logging in properly/taking forever? I'm using an IM site at the moment if you want to chat, but I'm getting some food soon.

Lisa, I can never Skype in the morning. It's 7 AM. I stop by AW once or twice, but mainly, I'm thinking about school and homework.

Boo school.

Morning.

Hi, Ky.

Earlier, I realised that one of my biggest problem in writing is my thing about inserting pop culture references.

Hey guys,
I just received an email from an agent who wants to try giving my first fifty pages and synopsis to 5-8 YA editors. The agent I was contacted by doesn't represent YA, only non-fiction. What I'm trying to ask is... Is that normal? Kind of doing a test run before committing to anything? I'd never heard of an agent doing something like this before.

I've never heard of that happening lily. Post this in bewares and background checks. Those are the people that would know for sure. Good luck!

Hi, Kidd. How's it going?

That's an absolutely terrible practice. I've heard of it before. Some agent makes a half-hearted sort-of-submission to a bunch of editors, they all reject it because there's no passion there, and you're left with a shop-worn manuscript that can't be offered to those houses again.

How did the 30+ full requests you received in the first 24 hours go? You must be well on your way to a thousand full requests now.

Hello, Para. How's it going?

Remind me to never procrastinate ever again. I've been up for the past 2 1/2 hours doing homework that's due in less than an hour. I still have one assignment to go, and now I have to go get ready for class.

Hi guys.

I'm about to sit here and read Weeping straight through from beginning to end for revision-sake, so I'll probably be pretty quiet.
