Short Story for Prompt Contest
I hope you guys don't mind, but I'm posting a very short story here (like, 1,400 words short) for a prompt contest through merry_fates . In case you're curious, the prompt was: "Meeting on the Turret Stairs" by Frederic Burton.
Hilary was a beautiful woman with hair as golden and waving as the fields of grain that encircled her father's farm. She was placed ( Read more... ) -

July Book Review: The Hollow
I'm skipping over my June book review (I'll post it later. *Hint hint*, I never finished the book, so expect a negative review.) and heading straight for July because I just finished The Hollow in one night. With this extended weekend, I figured I could get the review out before my life turned busy again.

Sick
I have a sinus infection, lovingly given to me by a line of sick family members over the Memorial Day weekend. I still remember hugging my cousin and saying, almost jokingly, "I don't want to get sick!", and him replying with a big hug, "oh *sniff, snort, cough* you won't, you baby."

April Book Review: Raven Stole the Moon
A day late but here's my April book review. I REALLY have to start reviewing these books right after I read them so I can just copy and paste when it's time.
To be honest I read three books in the month of April, but will review only this one. The other two were Shutter Island by Dennis Lehane (of which I recommend--both the movie and the book), ( Read more... ) -
(Untitled)
I am thinking, really thinking, about cutting my hair short. Like above the shoulders short. Something I haven't done since junior high. I hated it. Then again, in junior high, my "style sense" and ability to actually make my hair look presentable was non-existent sooo... But like I said, I'm thinking of cutting my hair for the summer. I have ( Read more... ) -
March Book Review: Matched
First day of Spring. FINALLY. As beautiful as winter can be, I just don't think it's my season. I think I'm susceptible to a lot more negative feelings in winter and so I'm very glad that there's sun and warm weather, green hues and budding on the verge.
Did anyone see the Full Moon last night? The supposed SUPER Full Moon that is? Sadly, ( Read more... )
