All It Took Was a Ray of Sunshine

I don't have a lot of work today so I figured, why not update? I mean, I've always wanted to update my blog frequently. Like I said, I don't have a lot of homework. I think I'm having the best day of the week so far. This morning I got the results from my recent Civics project. My teacher hadn't been impressed with the marks, so I was overjoyed when I found out that I received a perfect. Feel a little guilty though, since he marked my grammar/spelling as perfect too when he actually caught a few mistakes. He's probably being generous. Anyway, in business class I received a caramel granola bar for answering a question correctly that the others didn't. Cool eh? Then in math, our test date was postponed till Monday (not that I mind it being on Friday) and programming was a breezy course.

So, that's enough of my personal life right now.

Updating my fics? Okay, let's talk about that. I'm currently editing the last chapter of Sticks and Stones. I feel like I've lost all emotion, and what's left is a rough stoney texture. There really wasn't that much to it. My sentence structure is poor and let's not even get into the length of the chapter. I'm trying to add about another six to seven pages worth of plot, and reposting it again. I've figured out the majority of details for the next three chapters including the epilogue. Yeah, I know I've said that before but this time I really know where I'm going to take this story. I just had a bit of trouble with the details. Hopefully it doesn't end too fast since the pacing was rather slow; the problem is that I don't think there's room for romance. I don't want to give out any spoilers because I've always seemed to change my mind all too quickly and even my spoilers become wrong.

To be completely and brutally honest, I feel like I'm getting tired of writing this story. I mean, it may just be because it's not my main priority at this moment so I don't feel as interested in writing it, but I'm more excited about posting What You Will. I've been getting this chills lately that if I don't get started on its first chapter and post it, somebody will get to the idea first. I've planned about three chapters worth of the story already, and I'm hoping that it will become a hit just like Sticks and Stones. I'd be gravely disappointed to find out that somebody beat me to it.

I hope I'm not like one of those lousy authors. I think I may seem like one, but I'm really passionate about writing... it's just school work comes first. And even though I don't have a lot of homework, sometimes the inspiration just isn't there. I love and enjoy writing Sticks and Stones, and hopefully there's still that glowing ember inside me that can spark better chapters. I know it's there; it just takes a while to shed off my essay-mode. Essays lack emotion, and their too blunt. I can't lack emotion and be blunt when I'm writing my story, so I do apologize for that. I just feel like I can do so much better.

Well, this seems like a pretty long post. I hope it makes up for all the days that I missed, and hopefully for the days that I'm pretty sure I *will* miss. I don't know; if I'm not busy in the next few days, I might give another heads up. But other than that, I don't think there are a lot of things worth of giving a heads up for.
