bad day

Ok have you ever had a day that was bad before it even started? Well I have and that day is today. First at 4 am I got an emergency call from the school telling us that someone in family housing (Where I live) was attacked. Now my husband is very worried for me. I couldn’t go back to sleep. Then I got up and remembered that I have a test in my second class. I of course can’t think to study so I just stare at my notes. Then at 8:15 I get in the mood to work on my book but I have class at 8:55 and I still have to get dressed and walk to class. Tucker wants me to take my mace but of course I can’t find it. Then I walk to class on what must be the coldest day in a month only to find that my first class was canceled. I don’t want to walk all the way home only to walk back so I decided to stay. Now I am wasting an hour and a half that I could have been working on my book. Oh and the kicker is that I found out that the test that I thought I was going to have is only a 6 point quiz, over the only chapter that I didn’t review. It is only 10 am and i already need to go to bed and get this day over with.

Getting there

Yeah I now have 2000 words in chapter 1. Ok so this might not sound like a lot but I lost everything that i had finished a while ago. I had like 6 chapters completed and i got really discouraged. Then I spoke with my sister and i guess that she fanned my flame. Now I feel like i am on fire. In the last few days i have finished all of chapter two and i am about half way done with chapter i. I am so happy. If i can keep this up i could possibly finish this book before i die of old age. I now only have 23 more chapters to go. Yeah.

Happy day

Ok so 1 full page today. This might not sound like a lot but I also built a dog house, a table, and a flower box and finally finished my backed up lawndry. I am feeling pritty good today. I was on a roll when I was writing but then my hand cramped up so I thought that it might be a good time to take a break so here I am. Today was a really good day for getting things done. although I should have spent some of that time getting ready for a test on Monday. Well I guess that I will just have to get up early and study on Monday. I dont feel to bad because my book is just as important. I am now officially done with chapter two. Does anyone else feel that the beginning of the book is the hardest to write? This is the second time that I am writing this because my computer crashed taking the book with it. I thought that the second time around it would be easier but it still seems to drag. I just cant seem to wait to get to the juicy parts. Am I weird? ok I know that Im weird but I am just asking about the writing part. humm I guess that if I am I will just have to deal for a little while longer half a chapter and the fun begins. Cant wait.

Gerrr

Ok so I know that I already posted today but I just have to say gerrr. I say that because I sat down to work on my book like 4 times and either nothing came out or I was on a roll and got interupted just a few minutes later. And I wonder why I'm not further. I need an office my bed is just to soft for work and it knows my name to well. "Jaaade, you know your sleepy why dont you just put that notebook down and take a nap."

Let you imagination run wild (its fun)

OK So play along with me. If you had a planet with animal people on it what would they look like and what would you call it? Me....Humm. Well my people would be really tall. I would also have them look like whatever animal they have the most characteristics of, like if they were really fast they would have spots like a cheetah. If they were really good at hunting they would have strips like a tiger and such. I think that I will call my planet Tandaren, just because I like it. So tell me what your people would be like on your planet. Now remember the point of this is to let your mind wonder and see where you end up. This should be fun not work.

The dream sequance

Bowen stood alone in the castle's enormous entrance hall. The room glowed with a heavenly feel as the sunlight filtered through the translucent walls. His hand lightly touched the stone banister of the grand staircase. The room was so familiar, his heart tightened as he remembered the last time he had been in this home. A soft whisper pulled him from his memories. "Bowen." The sound was soft but Bowen already knew where it was coming from. The young girls voice was so familiar, possibly as familiar as his own voice.He raced up the large staircase toward the nursery. She would be waiting in her room her chubby little arms reaching for him as she always was. He slowed as he approached the door. Something wasn't right. The door was closed. He thought back to his previous dreams, the door was always open. He opened the door cautiously. The room had the same ethereal glow as the entrance hall. The crystal mobile over the crib cast small rainbows around the room. He pushed the door until he saw a women sitting in the queens rocking chair holding a small stuffed Zintar. She looked up when Bowen demanded, "What have you done with the princess and why are you in my dream?" The woman's lips curved into the most beautiful smile he had ever seen. "You know, on earth they call this a horse." She fingered the stuffed toy. "Answer me." He yelled. "You tell me." She said matter of factly. Slowly she walked toward him, her long white dress flowing elegantly behind her. Her eyes never leaving him. He knew those eyes. "It's not possible. The last time I saw you you were two." "Are you sure the last time was not more recently?" Her hand lightly touched his arm. Looking into those green eyes he remembered the frightened girl in the cell. Before he could think he pulled her into his arms. "I'v been looking for so long, I never thought I would find you." He pulled back to look at her again. "I love you, I always have." "Bowen our time is growing short. Save me Bowen. Save me."
This is just a small part of my current project. Please tell me what you think.

Hi

My name is Jade and I am a writer. Ok, well I want to be a writer. Right now I am a student and surprisingly I am not studying creative writing. Just plain English. I have what most people would call an overactive imagination. I love writing and telling stories. I am currently working on a book called Toreen. I have been having a little trouble with getting it down on paper. I guess that I get discouraged. But I have a lot of support from my family.
