And I'm a-back!

Yeah, a little early. But hey, I missed you guys!

So...I have been pretty productive. Got up to chapter 2 (yes, I'm just chugging along...not) on the re-write of Sarea, which now has a new working-title! I'll refer to it as Healing from now on.

It was really funny, though. You know how Healing is a total re-write of a rather cliche book I wrote almost exactly a year ago? Well, although the plot was bad, I was very proud of my characters. But last night, I realized...I was leaving three of my original characters out!! AAAAHHHH!! Including Leela, who I am SO attached to! Yeah, but now I put them in the outline real quick, so the emergency is over. Lol.

And also, I've been hoping that I'll have a chance to revise The Elandai Series. I posted a few chapters for my 1st blogging anniversary, but I would really like to get in touch with Ben and Kaela again.

Thanks for praying about the attacker dude. I haven't heard any updates or anything (we're usually the last people to hear about it in our neighborhood) but so far nothing serious has happened, I think.

Another prayer request/praise...I managed to injure my neck and back while on one of my BFF'S trampoline. Yes, I'm a Blondie at heart. No offense to the blond-haired people out there! Lol. But it wasn't as serious as it could have been, and even though I couldn't shoot that night it's been getting better by the day!

Oh...and I found out that I'm doing an archery competition next week. Gulp. And I'm doing an air-rifle competition later in April--the one that qualifies for STATES!!!!!!!!!! Help. Me. Please. Because I know that everything that can possibly go wrong for me will! See the above paragraph!

I went over to igirl's house last week and had a ton of fun! They managed to conquer my un-photogenic-ness enough to get some really cool pictures of moi! Igirl's sister is, like, a camera genius. And igirl, you did a terrific job with the hair!

Hmmm...I was going to say something, but I forgot. Don't you ever have that feeling?

I have read a good deal of books over my break. Book #2 of the Hunter Brown series (review coming soon, maybe?) because I couldn't find the first one. Re-read Inkheart. And so on.

Oh! Now I remember what I was going to say! I'm going to try and bring back the writing tips! I'll post random ones sometime soon, and then I'll do...drum-roll please...

*drum-roll*

Torture Tips! By special request by Catherine Morland! For characters, of course. Not for little brothers. Just wanted to clarify that. Lol.

whoo hoo! i'm a camera genius. but i did have an exellent model.(in case you didn't guess that model is you Izori, it's a complement) ;)
P.S if you ever decide to write about sibling torture then i volunteer "igirl" to be a test subject. :)

Catherine Morland: Lol.

Andrea: Awwww...thank you. And about having igirl as my 'guinea pig'...I'll have to check up on that. ;)
