Ocean Girl Stories

Hi again! I have been gone for...4 days now from the blogosphere! But I'm back! Temporarily. Haha, you knew that was coming didn't you?! :)

I would like to tell you about The Ocean Girl Stories while I have this opportunity to get on the internet. You see, I'm staying at my aunts house and she has internet. I still have my laptop but it doesn't have an internet connection for some odd reason. Anywho, back to OG (Ocean Girl), I decided just...yesterday was it? That I needed a new writing project. I haven't been all that interested in my novel lately for some reason so I have been thinking about new things to write. That's how I came up with Ocean Girl Stories!

They are small parts of the main story at a time like Part I, Part II and so on. They are simply for the craving I have had of writing and I have been missing the ocean since I moved away from it :(

OG is about a girl named Daniella that lives in a beach house by the ocean of course and her father is away sailing. Ever since she was a little girl, she has dreamed of the legends of mermaids and how to become one. Her mother doesn't provide much support to her dreams of mermaids and sailing but soon the matter becomes serious. Daniella is forced to take Violet, the ship her father dedicated to her as a girl because she loves the violet colored sunsets, and go to war on sea. This book/story is a whole new look at mermaids and a more modern version of the sea.

I thought the ocean and mermaids were an interesting topic and ever since I watched Aquamarine, the movie, mermaids simply fascinated me. I'm wierd like that. But I don't really believe in them. They're just cool, you know? :)

So, off I am again. I'm going to continue my adventures on this road trip (I can't reveal my location) but I can tell you it is 95 degree weather up here! I'm not so sure I like the sun. I prefer the rain for some wierd reason. And I went swimming today! That was fun.

See you in a few days! (Possibly 1-2 days with luck :))

My story of the day

Haha! Okay, so, I was on this thing that calculates how much you have done of your essay/book/whatever out of like 50,000 words and it turns out...my book is only 2% done. That is so ridiculous I laughed. I don't know why I haven't been working on it for more than a half an hour a day lately, summer laziness is getting to me! Writing has become homework lately! And I have no idea why! I have everything in my head and I'm all excited about creating the piece of the story about it... but then when I sit down at my computer and start writing I don't know where to go! Writing is so fun for me but at times like these...I feel that it's very, very, hard to get an idea into concrete form on paper. Ah, well, better luck the next time I sit down at my computer to write :)

Other than that, I think that I have finally gotten the basic idea that the whole story will surround around. As I've said before, I have started over on the whole story which was really a drawback because I don't have nearly as much writing as before but it really was necessary. I mean, it was really unorganized and all the stories in there were jumbled and I almost pulled my hair out trying to fix it to make it make sense! So, I started over which much thinking. Now, I started it off with a whole new beginning and I have even started it with a new boy character named Donavan. Not Liam and Seth. I'm trying to get to the part where Liam finds Seth at his house but I'm not sure if I should put that in Chapter 2. I don't know.

Enough about my book. I'm going to the airport in about an hour to pick up my grandfather and I'm not even dressed for the day yet. Life can really get ahead of you if you wear PJs around the house on all your summer days! It's probably best that I am not doing that as often. And today is only the second day of summer!

I really had better go get ready...I can't leave Grandpa stranded! :)

Wish me luck on Linked!

More updates on my book

I have been slacking on updating you on my book so here is some info I haven't shared anywhere else:

I don't have my laptop to work on it so I will have to wait until I get that back and as I said before, I have started over with the whole thing so it will take me a while to get to the place I was at with the other version :(

My second version isn't even a page long due to no laptop :( but I have soo much I want to write! The story is evolving in my head so much it's almost in my head too much...I must write it down!! :D

I'm having a lot of progress on it...in my head but until I have my laptop back, it will have to wait!

Love you!

No more chapters :(

From now on, you'll have to ask me personally to read my chapters :( And that is because I don't like posers who act as the author of my book.
