Day 10

Update...posted chapter 9...to tired to write more on here :)

Day 9

Posted chapter 8! I have written 11 chapters so far, and have been just rewriting some stuff in them and posting. not looking forward to typing all new chapters...takes time, which I don't have. Ugh, school why do you hate me so? They should have a class for writers, just to let us write lol.

So...today I signed up for ScottishPenPals.com and found another girl that's the same age as me in Scotland, we're emailing each other now! yay! I'm also looking at a Study Abroad program, hopefully I get to go to Scotland! Not much else to say. School is annoying and time consuming, and I really need to just sleep for a few days. Well, talk to you later!

P.S Read my book! Thanks.

Day 7 & 8

Posted Chapter 7, and created a map of The High Guards house. Hopefully this lets readers visualize the house better. I'm working on a map right now of Andra. It's not perfect but it will do the trick. Can't wait till Spring Break when I can just sit and work on the book! But, for half the vacation I'll be on college visits and and the Upward Bound Spring Workshop. UB is worth missing some writing time. So yes I did poorly on that Math quiz...but I still have an A in the class! Don't know how that worked out. The two Unit tests I did felt like at least B's yay! So...now this weekend I have more time to write, but really need to figure out French. Thanks! And remember to read my book!

Day 4...5...6...Blah.

So...my last post was Monday...wow, the week went fast...but horrible. I wanted to post everyday but that didn't work out to well...So here's the gist of the week. Posted chapter 6 on Monday, Friends have told me it's awesome (yay!) I'm reading this book called "Girl with the glass feet" I thought it was going to be a metaphor...but no, she actually has glass feet. The books very addicting, wish I could sit down an enjoy it, but...I have two huge unit tests tomorrow. In Economics and History, both the same teacher, both the only classes I don't have an A in...:( So hopefully I do good tomrorrow, but there is SO much to know...ugh...sigh...Also, I have a French Quiz tomorrow, not horrible...but still. I had a Math quiz today...my mind was so messed up over these other tests that I'm pretty sure I bombed my math one, but so far the worse grade I've got on a test in Math is a B-ish so it's all good. But...sigh...school is getting in the way of my book. I started making maps to add with the book on Wattpad, a friend told me that would help since there's so many places they're at. So, tomorrow night I'll post chapter 7, and hopefully these maps. Sorry for the random bunch of stuff post, but I'm super tired...annoyed...cranky... emotional...have a headache...need to sleep...and need to read...ugh. Hope you guys are reading my book! Thanks!

Day 3...Update

Update:

Chapter 6 is officially published on Wattpad...with a few errors, but I told the readers about them. I'll just have to go back later and fix them. YAY! That took forever, but now I'm finished...with this chapter lol. Also, made my "office" area much better today, I can actually do paperwork on my desk now. Thanks, and remember read the book...Chapter 6 happens to be my "right now" favorite.

Day 3...Fixed!

Late last night I fixed chapter 6...YAY! But now on the "lovely" Monday morning, I must go out and shovel. I live in the country, I have no sidewalks. Just a large amount gravel...a VERY large amount. Oh! and the drifts? Everywhere...all that snow from the fields, it's in my lawn...on my driveway...half way up my windows...(I'm sitting upstairs right now...pretty sure the roof will collapse...) UGH, and I must go out in the cold and shovel it...sigh. I really wish I could have a day just to veg...I'd work on my book...but just to sit doing nothing. I mean I don't do "a lot" anyway. But it's those little things that distract me..."Come get me this...cut this out...call this...go get this...go stack this...go shovel this...bake this...and so on and so forth. But...I get called lazy...yes me, with the "almost" perfect GPA, who does every club at school, in all the Drama related activities, volunteers like crazy, and is writing a book...is called lazy. Though, my parents don't know about he book (they wouldn't care, and would most likely make fun of it.) but still, they must see that I'm not just fiddling on Facebook, i'm sitting here typing till the wee hours of the night...I'm pretty sure they'll figure it out when they see my book somewhere (fingers crossed on publishing this). Well, at least I have this blog to rant...it's kinda working...though I'm spending time on this when I could be doing other things, but still it's worth it. And hopefully you (if there is a you) think so too. Thanks for reading, and remember check out my book!

-M...Freezing her butt off....

Day 2...Missing some of the book...sigh.

So I've been putting chapters of my book on Wattpad and a couple days ago I got to chapter 6...but realized it wasn't really chapter 6. It had different parts from different chapters all mixed up in one...sigh...and I had no clue where any of it was from. So I decided to go back to my old computer and try to retrieve the files and go from there...only the computer is not turning on. So I went back to my other old computer ( I had to use this one when my other old computer was on the fritz...the same one that isn't working now...) but it's a '98 and it  unfortunately doesn't read my Flash drive...I know you're probably wondering why I kept two old computers lying around. But my laptop may break down, then I'd use my 2005...and before that it was if my 2005 broke down use the '98. So anyway, now I have to manually retype everything...not to big of a hassle, but time consuming and annoying. Oh the joys of writing a book! 

But the good thing is I don't have school tomorrow, so I'll be finishing up this hassle tomorrow (hopefully). But...it's snowing (a lot) here, so I'll be having to most likely shovel...hmm...maybe school will be cancelled Tuesday...hopefully. 

Well hopefully I'll get this whole mess straightened out. Hope you guys (if there is anyone) are reading my book, Thanks!

Day 1...kinda

Day 1

I've been writing this book for a while, but we're going to just say this is Day 1 for the purpose of a nice flowing blog. Now, so far I have written 11 chapters of my book, and posted the prologue and 5 chapters on Wattpad. I'm trying to post the next one, but when I purchased a new computer (a laptop, easier to write a novel when you can move) and transfered the book over. It got a little messed up for some reason the chapters flew into each other...so I have no clue were to begin and end the chapter...so I must go back to my old computer (thankfully I still have it.) and either try once again to transfer it, or type it all over again. Either way it will be annoying but necessary. 

Thursday we staged a walkout...so, I would have done this yesterday (Friday) because I had the day off due to the "Bill" issue...(so now you now I'm from Wisconsin...or now you know because I just said so) but I was very distracted by CNN all day, and never got to it. It's very depressing what's going on in our world...Bloodshed...loss of jobs...raising taxes...cutting benefits...raising the prices of everything else! It really makes me want to just pick up and move...but I really need to finish school, all of it...sigh, college in the horizon. As you can now tell there was my first random, ramble of this blog...I'll do this alot, it's part of that whole, "get it off your chest thing" Oh, one more random thing...one of my parents unplugged the TV so that I could not watch it, isn't that like taking a text book away? I wasn't watching some stupid mind numbing television show...I was watching CNN...seriously? Plus, I could just plug it back in, but it's that whole "defying" them thing...hate being treated like a child. But so be it, only need to put up with it for a while longer.

Hmm...trying to think of something to say of the book...I'll most likely do the next post as something along the lines of what I "want" the book to be about, and please, if there is any readers, read my book. 

Thanks,

-M (going insane)

The beginning...

Hello readers...if there are any.

My name is Morgan. I am a High school student trying to make it through my incredibly stressful and tiring life, while writing a (hopefully will be published) book. I've been writing this book for awhile now, now that I think of it I should have started this blog a while ago. But didn't really think about it till watching Julie & Julia. I hope to have readers of my book read this, and readers of my blog read my book. But if there are no readers of my blog, I hope this will work as a "get it off my chest" type of thing. This blog will probably be boring to most, by the shear fact that it will mostly be me ranting about some mundane thing at school, and how it is affecting my book. I also post the many issues that come up that act as a major roadblock in my writing, and hopefully will receive comments on how to over come them. I hope that you as a reader can relate to me somehow, and feel at  ease to know there is someone else out there with the same issues. I know I would feel some form of relief. I hope to form some aspect of a bond with all of you, as you follow me through my crazed life. Thank you for reading! I'll try to post everyday...but we all know how that happens. Please read my novel at http://www.wattpad.com/user/Mlana3675. Leave comments, vote, and become my fan! Nice (virtually) meeting you.
