Well, that may not look good but Oh well
Today I wrote on my arm! I put BFMV and TDG(I meant to put a 3 but I didn't at first so I put a 3 connecting to the bottom of the T) and 5FDP! I was going to put AD2R but my friend wouldn't hand over the Sharpie so I'm one band short.
For the people who have no idea what I abbreviated:

AD2R: A Day To Remember
Well that's all!

Books, Books and more Books

Truth be told I'm still a little undder the weather but whatever. I'm better than I have been, I still have my lungs where they're supposed to be rather than in my throat from my vicious coughing. Anyway... guess what!
Yup!
I've started to send queries to agents! I tried to send one to one company but I wasn't eighteen so they wouldn't let me. Another one denied me from my synopsis and all, they said that it wasn't what they were looking for. (Personally I think because I said that I was sixteen they just denied me from that.) Anyway I searched a whole lot yesterday and found 19 agents that would be interested in the genre of my book. Turns out only six of them are the real thing. The others were scams and self publishing companies. Self-Publishing companies will publish your book for weather your any good or not but no one will read it. It won't be published my anyone that has a real company therefore Self-Publishing= Not Good For Me.
So today my agenda is send queries to the six agents I liked and see what goes from there. I would have sent a couple yester but I was far too lazy and I watched 'The Lovely Bones' and it made me cry, my aunt wanted me to watch it for me to see how easily someone could get kidnapped and killed but it hit me on a much more emotional tone. Anyway my brother was laughing at it and I fired out at him. He should know better than everyone else what Death is and he laughed at it. It made me angry that he showed such disrespect. My aunt caught me lashing out at him and sent me to bed, but she understood and it was all good.
Anyway back to the agenda part. I'm thinking of sending a couple of the queries today. Well not thinking about sending them, I'm thinking about doing them. I'm just gald it won't cost me anything everyone is doing e-mail queries this day and age which is good for me 'cause I'm a sixteen year old with a zero point zero salary. I just hope they won't be too harsh if they tell me that they don't like it. I understand that I'm going to get a few 'no's before I ever get a 'yes' but I get impatient and tend to give up but I'm hoping that my friends and family won't let me. I think that getting a 'no' make me more determined to keep sending it to people so I can later rub it in said companies' faces. That would make me smile. =)
Anyway that's all I plan to do today, not much but oh well.

The End Of Spring Break...

Aw, it's the end of Spring Break, that sucks but the good thing is that I've done everything I wanted to: Sleep!
And I've also done some unexpected things as well:
I tried to do my make up to look all scene like and it actually turned out pretty well
And! I finished my book, O.W.E.N. like I finally got around to completely editing it so that it's virtually flawless. Well I hope so, I want to have some of my friends read it then we'll see but I hope that it's ready, I spent a good majority of today and yesterday fixing it up.
Any way that has been my break not very exciting but oh well, I spent it how I wanted to so that's all that mattered.

Poem

I thought of this poem last night:

I hate when they fight
Especially at night
When we're supposed to be in our bed
Supposed to have happy dreams in our head
When they start to curse
I know things will get worse
But when will they cease
And bring the peace
So when we start a new day
We will forget what they say

Well...

Well nothing has been going on so far, well nothing exciting at least. I'm just doing normal teenage stuff. Wow, I thought I would never hear that.

My day:

  1. Got caugt reading under my desk... Back in California I was famous for that... anyway that was Math
  2. Lunch: had to apologixe to Kris for having a breakdown. I don't know what really happened, I just started to bawl in P.E. and it carried on through lunch and Kris was trying to be a good friend and I really didn't want him to see me with teary eyes and a beat red puffy face
  3. Kate and I got in a miniature argument about my anti-depressants I want to take and she thinks that I don't need them I could have rebuttled with what happened to me on friday but I didn't feel like starting an argument. (Kate went on a UNR trip friday, she wasn't there. I'm kind of glad she wasn't, I mean she knows all about my... losses?, no, my greif?, my deaths? Well she knows and all but I don't want people to see me like that. I AM NOT EMO OR GOTHIC OR SCENE! Emo means emotions... I do admit that I have very uncontrolable emotions but I don't cut myself anymore.(The scars from the last time I cut myself are swtill there and that's beginning to worry me, I only used my nails, and I didn't even cut deep enough to draw blood[eventhough I wanted to] I just don't know why they're not healing) Gothic means well I'm not sure what it means my closest guess would be like Wiccans or something. But as it goes to show I can't be something that I don;t know what it is. Right? And Scene is like posers for emo. They pretend they have life problems or turn small things like losing a cell phone or getting grounded to losing a loved one or being abused. I have real problems so how could I possibly WANT to make something up?
  4. I'm doing a new project, I'm going to try to write a novel in a guy's point of veiw without him sounding sexually confused. I want him to be a guy that would act like a teenaged guy. What I'm most worried about is writing about someone's abs in excellent description and having that description come out of my male character. Also I'm having trouble finding a good name that I haven't used before, I've used: Shane, Nick, Xavier, Chase, Justin, Seth, Danny, Owen, Tray,Marcus, Nathaniel, Willam, Nicolaus... Um I think that's it but if you guys can think of a name I would greatly appreciate it.
  5. I totally want to start a James Patterson fan club, I swear if I can write as good as 1/10006493246823946329610 of this guy I would feel so accomplished as a writter. He is truly amazing and my writing idol. He's written the famous Maximum Ride, Daniel X, Witch and Wizard, and so many more(the ones I just listed are the teen ones) He's also more famouse for his array of adult books like: The Womans Murder Club, Alex Cross, and so many more. I'm reading a couple of his adult books. I've already finished When The Wind Blows and now I'm working towards finishing the sequel: The Lake House(Yes, that was the book I wwas reading when I got in trouble today,I'm just a crazy bibliophile!) . I also bought his first Alex Cross book. I can't wait. It doesn't matter to what age group he's writting to his adult books capture me, a sixteen-year- old girl. And his teen books have captured my grandmother just as easily if he were fishing.
  6. My aunt and uncle are having some trouble up in Reno where they are dropping off my uncles' brother, the flight got delayed and it's windier than ever. And my lil bro had baseball practice today, he really lucked out. He was bummed that he couldn't go but his coach(coincedently also named Brett) picked him up and he was as chipper as he could be. So now it's just Chesnee, Porter House, Zeus the Moose, Evan, Stanley, C.J., and me. It's pretty quiet. I like it, well It's quit considering I can't hear anything other than Bullet For My Valentine screaming in my ear. =)

That's just about been it. Below is the begining of my Guy's P.O.V story entitled May 26th. Enjoy!

May 26th 2010. Nothing special, just another Wednesday. I bet someone told you everything was normal. They're wrong. That day, that seemingly normal Wednesday everything went wrong.

Now I bet your're confused, so let me backtrack a day, Tuesday The day before the Disaster.

I groaned silently as my alram clock went off. It was way too early, for both the time and the day of the week. I blearily opened my eyes and grunted knowing that I would have to face the day sooner or later. As much as I wished I could stay curled up in my bed I knew I had to go to school.

Yes, I realize that I actually could sleep in, call myself in, and play hooky. But sinde there was no one to wake me up and I would beat myself up afterwards I shrugged on what smelled like a clean shirt and jeans. After looking under bowls of long-forgotten food and clothes that were decompposing before my very eyes for my shoes and socks that didn't have holes. After I got ready I grabbed my backpack and ran out of the door.

As usual as any other day I started mt walk to school. The long walk was boring, especially being the only kid on the face of the earth stuck without an i-Pod or cell phone. When a sixteen year old kid has to live in an abandoned house, phone and music payments are way out of the question. So now I've seem to have gotten your attention. Yeah, you heard me right; I live in an abandoned house with no one but me, myself, and I. And I'm sixteen years of age, awfully young to live alone and provide for myself. Now if you're thinking that, I need to ask you a question. What era do you live in exactly? It's the twenty-first century. Kids my age are hooked on drugs, alcohol, or sex. So you really shouldn't be surprised that I am in my situation. You should be more surprised that I am actually a responsible sixteen year old guy. Well responsible in the area of not doing drugs or being addicted to alcohol and sex.

Well that's it so far, But the main character still needs a name, I thought of Ethan but that's an evil guy in the book I'm reading so I'm not sure if that's really going to work.
