Hahaha I will definitely have to include that, Ely! I'm thinking it'll be a short romantic comedy. I've always wanted a novel to be a part of S1mon Puls3's R0m-C0m series. And those are usually small books at about 35-40K

Yeah I have to finish TAJ first and then go on to editing LotF 1 based on my beta results. Then hopefully finish The House. Maybe next year for NaNo.

So far a few people i showed my million re-write of the first chapter of my first book like this newest version the best... I'm just hoping its more suspenseful and kind of frighting compared to the last versions.

that movie makes me feel like i'm on an acid trip. I dont actually know what taking like LSD would feel like, but i have a feeling its similar to the feeling i get when i see that insane movie. It just makes no sense to me...

Must stop eating or drinking anything with caffeine at night before I go to sleep. Woke up 3 hours later again. SUCH a weird thing my body does lol.

Trying to do something productive and beta HR's WIP. Probably will finish it and then head back to sleep. At least, I hope I fall back asleep. I've got to wake up in 4 hours and I've only had 3 hours of sleep thus far...

Hi, guys. :)

TMB is going to be set over 2011, and it's going to be journal format. It's going to be a nice side project, methinks, because it's so different to Sticks and Stones.

Hiya, Lisa!

That's cool about TMB. Though, I'd suggest not adding in the year. It'll date your book. I haven't read much books that use journal entries as a medium, so I'm not sure if I'm 100% right. Still, it's something you should look into.

It's going to be set over a year, though, and I want to include the day as well as the time and in some cases the time.

OK. I suppose I could add in a random day to start.

I'm going to do something like THE MOTH DIARIES and have it broken down into sections. Each month is a section.

Maybe you have to force yourself to go back to working on TAJ, Ally? As long as you're making progress on something, I'm sure you'll be fine.

Yeah...I don't know what to suggest. I can write my own romance stuff, but I can never give advice about it lol. Dunno why...

ETA: Morning, Para! Usually I'm only up when you say "Good afternoon, team." :D
