I knew I had posted this! Whoo!

My novel does not yet have a title, but here is some stuff on it and ideas I'm kicking around at the moment. Facts: So, I am thinking of naming the series The Moonlight Sonata. Reasons: Then, I can kinda-sorta "rip off" Stephenie Meyer and theme the titles of my books after musical terms -- not that I know any. Yay research?

I haven't been writing in this, actively, as much as perhaps I should. Oh well, it's not like anyone reads this stuff. Early last week, my classes were getting in the way, not only of my writing time, but also of my writing muse (*coughcough*Emily*coughcough*). Which sucked. I half-asses most of chapter 2, which was bad, and didn't feel motivated to work on it at all. But then this weekend came, and I spent Saturday night and Sunday morning with Emily. Now I can't stop writing! At her house and back home, I wrote so much, my hand couldn't keep up, and it still hurts! I'm so excited :D I'm still a bad banana, however, because I have yet to write my outline (I hope to work on that with Emily this week afterschool). Gah. Oh well. This week's schedule is fucked up, and that's a good thing! It looks like this: Monday: Go in 4 hours late, only have periods 1 & 2. Tuesday: Go in 4 hours late, only have periods 3 & 4. Wednesday: Full-day, PSATs first half of day. Thursday: Leave 4 hours early, have all periods, shortened. Friday: No school. That means I can take my AP classes easy(ier) for the week! I only have to worry about Biology for tomorrow, then Calculus for Tuesday, Calculus for Wednesday, and not much of anything for Thursday, which is the most fucked up, and Friday I can sleep! YAY!!! Plus, I now believe I have the name for my series, and an idea for its theme. (They deserve their own entry.)

In response to my update post yesterday, Kaiwynn mentioned that novels written in ones head are perfectly legitimate...which I wanted to point out...because by that logic I'm already an accomplished novelist XD Why in the hell does one get ideas for 2nd and 3rd novels where the first hasn't even begun yet???!!! WHY AM I ALWAYS DOING THIS!!!??? GAAAH!!! FUCKING CRICKETS IN THE BASEMENT!!!!!!... ...In other news, I am such a narcissist, I fall in love with my writing everytime I read something I wrote some previous day (unless it's from so far back it's crap). Come on now!!! It makes me feel weird to be so "inwardly" full of myself XD This is the least useful entry ever, I think... OH! I took my AP tests today, and though my brain is dead, and most of it oozed out of my ears, I think I did okay. I kinda have a headache right now. I hope I survive this year -- because I wanna go to Egypt this summer. (Let me die NEXT year, m'kay? Sounds like a plan ^_^) All for now-- ~Lyn~

My writing is coming along slow and steady. I would, of course, be much happier if I could work on it all the time, but alas, life does not work out so pleasantly most of them time. Tomorrow I have two AP tests, so...yeah...not so much writing. Not even much free computer time. Could be worse. I could feel like I'm sinking, which I was until...heh...halfway through today? Thanks to my best friend, Tegan, my lifevest, Emily, and my rekindled relationships with Kaiwynn and Erin I'm doing better already. I feel confident, like I'm actually getting smarter. Things are sliding into place, and it's a good feeling. So far, of the 10 Snowflake Method steps, I have...none down. Now that's not to say that I haven't worked on it at all! It's just that the first two steps are, I think, very hard to do -- one-sentence and one-paragraph summaries; gaaah!!! -- and although I have some stuff written, I have yet to even kinda-sorta settle on it. Right now, I'm working on step 3, mostly in my head, which is writing about my characters, not completely in-depth, but with some details. I guess that's all I have to say...for now. Dun dun dun![/Hope] ~Lyn~

I don't have much time to post today -- I need to do more AP Bio work, and then so much more homework is waiting for me back in my room... -- but I shall make some time to share my happiness. I am now working on writing a novel using The Snowflake Method. Already it feels promising, although I can't work on it too much just yet because AP Bio and Cal and American Studies come first...(haha, yeah right). The potential is in my head, and that is what matters. I will, however, share a slight factoid (yes, I just used the word factoid) about myself before dashing off. As I was washing the dishes, I was fantasizing. About what, may you ask? About me finishing my novel by the age of 18, sending it to Ms. Stephenie Meyer, and having her love it and me getting published, etc. One can dream, right? *experiences squee of the day* Peace, love, and bubble gum! ~Lyn~

Maybe a lot, maybe a little, maybe nothing. But some stuff did happen today, and I hope it leaves its mark. I have Sera Phyn, my friend on MySpace, for making it start. She has answered a few of my questions, taking her own time for someone she hardly knows, to share about her own writing experiences. She has finished a novel, and I found that amazing, hence why I wanted to go to her (and I could do that because she is not yet published, and therefore has time for someone random like me). She mentioned the Snowflake Method to me, and I researched it. My favorite website yet: http://www.advancedfictionwriting.com/ar Let's see, and what else... I feel energized, excited, and giddy. And I gotta go! Oh joy, what fun. ~Lyn~

I said, exactly ten days ago, that I would post all over the place about my most awesome day ever, but I didn't. I just started this journal, but journals are more for personal use, and if I get it up now, many will see it later. So here it goes. In Fairfax, Virginia, on September 13th, I went to a Stephenie Meyer book signing. It was Bella's birthday, and the best day of my life. [More is, of course, to come. Sorry, I'm just that lazy -- but this is just too awesome to keep silent for long.]
