One Day More!

One day more until NaNoWriMo is over guys! I finished my word count goal a few days ago, not my novel, but my word count. I'm so happy, I wrote almost twice as much as I wrote last year for NaNo, it's more than I've ever written. 

And about the song ( One Day More from Les Miserables). I just went through the song, and released that all my characters could be singing it about how I was almost done doing horrible things to them. 

For example: 

" One more day all on my own, one more day with him not caring"- change this to she, and they could be singing about me the author, not caring about what I do to them! This is the perfect song for today! Good luck finishing guys!

Christmas nails!

I'm so excited for Christmas! Yes, we do still have weeks, but at about Thanksgiving, I start to make presents and get ready for the Christmas Ball, and that gets me really excited. I'm going as a medieval person for the ball this year. I have a dark green dress, and I'm going to make a beaded belt and line the edges with ribbon. I can't wait! 

     

     So as as Christmas gets closer, prepare yourselves for decoration ideas, outfits, gifts, food, etc here on the blog! To start off, hears some nail ideas! 

If you try any of these, or if you have your own ideas, please comment with pictures and instructions! 

FYI- it tried these last Christmas Eve, and they looked great

I've done these with nail jewels, and they looked pretty cool!

I need to get more colors, I have a ton of pink, but almost no red of green! ;)

So if I start right now, I can do one of these every few days until christmas.......

Little Talks

We went to Chipotle for lunch yesterday, and it was so fun to watch everyone there. I mean, everyone there had a story of there own. For example, the couple in there thirties who were soooo sweet to each other. I'll never know if they'll stay together, what there lives will be like, but I was able to see just a bit of there lives there. We got there at lunch hour, and the only table left was a table for seven. We took it, even though there were only four of us, and as we were almost done, we saw a man standing in the corner waiting for someone. We invited him to come in sit at our table, and he smiled and walked over. We talked a bit, and I found out that he was waiting for his wife and daughter. Then as we left, a family with two little kids came over and asked if they could have the table. The man was still sitting there waiting, so he said they could share with him and his family. As we walked away, we heard them talking. So in the course of an hour, I got to talk to a few people I'll never see again, and somehow to me, that seems amazing. Looking around me, I saw so many people  doing the same thing.

Pilgrim Play

The Pilgrim Play is tonight! I'm backstage doing stage manager stuff, wish me luck!

“10 Steps to Becoming a Better Writer

Write.
Write more.
Write even more.
Write even more than that.
Write when you don’t want to.
Write when you do.
Write when you have something to say.
Write when you don’t.
Write every day.
Keep writing.”
― Brian Clark

only a few days left......

only  few days left until the end of the month! hows everyone doing? i have about 1200 words left in my word count goal.

i found this a few days ago well i was looking for writing quotes, and thought it was really funny! 

but if they aren't on walking trails........ grammar people!

i don't know why i like this so much, its so dumb!

“Thirty years ago my older brother, who was ten years old at the time, was trying to get a report written on birds that he'd had three months to write, which was due the next day. We were out at our family cabin in Bolinas, and he was at the kitchen table close to tears, surrounded by binder paper and pencils and unopened books about birds, immobilized by the hugeness of the task ahead. Then my father sat down beside him put his arm around my brother's shoulder, and said, "Bird by bird, buddy. Just take it bird by bird.”
― Anne Lamott, Bird by Bird: Some Instructions on Writing and Life

Mockingjay

i saw Mockingjay tonight at the theater with a friend ( can't say her name, but if your reading  this i had sooooo much fun!) i thank this is my favorite movie ever, the acting was increadable, and the plot was terrific. i can not wait for the next movie to come out!

“I think there are two types of writers, the architects and the gardeners. The architects plan everything ahead of time, like an architect building a house. They know how many rooms are going to be in the house, what kind of roof they're going to have, where the wires are going to run, what kind of plumbing there's going to be. They have the whole thing designed and blueprinted out before they even nail the first board up. The gardeners dig a hole, drop in a seed and water it. They kind of know what seed it is, they know if planted a fantasy seed or mystery seed or whatever. But as the plant comes up and they water it, they don't know how many branches it's going to have, they find out as it grows. And I'm much more a gardener than an architect.” 

― George R.R. Martin

“What really knocks me out is a book that, when you're all done reading it, you wish the author that wrote it was a terrific friend of yours and you could call him up on the phone whenever you felt like it. That doesn't happen much, though.” 

― J.D. Salinger, The Catcher in the Rye

“You have to write the book that wants to be written. And if the book will be too difficult for grown-ups, then you write it for children.” 

― Madeleine L'Engle

“If there's a book that you want to read, but it hasn't been written yet, then you must write it.” 

― Toni Morrison

“Lock up your libraries if you like; but there is no gate, no lock, no bolt that you can set upon the freedom of my mind.”

“You never have to change anything you got up in the middle of the night to write.”

“Fantasy is hardly an escape from reality. It's a way of understanding it.”
