New Username on FP

Hello!

On Fictionpress (which is where I post all of my work), I've changed my name to Queen Odd, from December Shoshan. New year, new name? Yush.

Anyways, thanks.

Oh, man. Where to begin?

Yo, people.

Where to begin? Loads of stuff. KAY. LIST FORM TIME.

1. I am so definitely working on Alexa's Diary: Eighth Grade. Don't y'all worry. I've been writing.

2. I'm a froshling! So exciting. But it includes a lot of work, so don't blame me for being half dead for three months.

3. Being a froshling is exciting. Thought I'd just say that again. -Is a froshling-

4. Uh, yeah. I have no four. But be excited about 1, 2, and 3.

5. It might take a while. The new chapter, I mean. Guess what! My laptop is screwed up again. I swear this is the 8th time, and it's forty-five fecking viruses. Forty-five. Insanity, really. So I'm on the old family computer and it might take a little while longer, so.

And so expect a few cool, "Ahmahgahd, roflroflrofl," things and I'll see you all then. ^^

Happy September!

Hi, guys!

Happy September, 4 days late. Or maybe 3. Whichever you prefer, really.

Anyhoodles, I started school on the first, so I've been writing less. However, I have been writing. It's just been busy, it being the start of the school year for me n' all. Today, though, we have a day off, as well as Monday. ^^ So I'm good for four days.

Anyways, this is just to tell you that I'm going to have less writing time but that I'll try to stick to it and not give up.

Thanks.

Tech. Crap n' Stuff. Oi...

'Lo.

So, I posted the last chapter to Alexa's Diary: Eighth Grade 8 days ago, wee. Due to no feedback (I kinda need it; a) inspiration, b) motivation) and to the fact that Microsoft had been removed from my laptop, I haven't started the next chapter yet.

Tonight, I'm going to re-install Microsoft and some of the other stuff, and start writing tomorrow morning. Plus, now that I've found some photos of what I'd like to think my characters look like (more or less), I hope you all like reading the story even more. You know, makes it a bit more fun?

Anyways, thanks and...'till next time I write.

Characters

Hullo!

My laptop's now fine. I posted the twelfth chapter to Alexa's Diary: Eighth Grade on the 9th and I hope you all read it/ review it soon.

Anyways, on http://www.xdecemberxshoshanx.webs.com/, my webs website, I put pictures of who I think look like the characters in Alexa's diary. Alexa, Danny, Charlotte, Morgan, Emma and Avery are all there. I think they're great. I hope you all visit the website and take some time to check everything out! I'd love it if you did.

Thanks.

-Tirzah

Crap, So....

Hullo, friends.

This is annoying. My laptop's still screwed up and on top of that, so is fictionpress. I've just finished the chapter and fictionpress won't let me go to the uploading page n' stuff. I suppose it'll have to be tomorrow. I was really hoping to get it out tonight but...eh, I s'pose not. At least I finished it in such short time, right? Right. So, look forward to tomorrow!

Thanks.

Computer Problems...Again

Hey there. Hi.

My laptop's screwy again. Every other 5 seconds, I get pop-ups that basically say, "Buy this now and we'll get rid of your THIRTY-TWO unused and UNWANTED files/viruses! We make money off of your misery! Heheheh!"

Then to take my mind off my dumbarse laptop, I try going on the internet, you know...have some fun. Facebook. Virus central. And it says, "WARNING: YOU HAVE VIRUSES," so I'm like, "Honestly? -Clicks "Close" on another pop-up advertising virus removal for only 45.95 a month for the rest of my natural born life-" and then, "WE HAVE BLOCKED NAVIGATION TO THIS SITE BECAUSE IT IS UNSAFE. CLICK HERE IF YOU WANT TO PROCEED WITHOUT PROTECTION," and then I'm like, "Heh...heheh...-immature-" and then, "Click HERE to buy-" and I'm like, "Dear GOD, spare me."

Alright. Not like that, but...GAH. -Violently hits the "X" on a pop-up-

So anyways, I thought the twelfth chapter for Alexa's Diary might be finished tonight and uploaded tomorrow but if this keeps up, then you and I might have to forget about anything to do with Alexa's Diary until the 13th or 14th, which is when it might be all well again. It's going somewhere to get fixed Monday...but Iduhno. We'll see. I thought I might just warn in advance that the next chapter wouldn't be out for a little while and that things might not go as planned if my laptop (-restrains self from hurling laptop out the window at an unsuspecting pedestrian-) keeps acting up.

So...yep. Thanks and bye.

Happy August!

'Lo.

Happy August, 6 days late.

I'm working on the newest chapter to Alexa's Diary right now. I like it a lot; it might be the best one out of all of them, and I can't wait to post it. Again, I'm sorry the last chapter took so long. I was at camp and on top of that, I was sick, I was procrastinating and everything. Oi.

So, happy August, if you're already back in school then I apologize, have a great year and well, er...keep reading. :D

It's Like I've Come Back From The Dead...But Not.

Hi.

So. I've been gone for a while. I haven't written for a bit. But I have loads of new stuff and I'm hoping to put it all up soon. I'm still working on the new chapter for Alexa's Diary. I also have two or so new short stories along with a new idea for a fake advice column in which peorple write with strange AND normal problems and in which Auntie Shoshan answers with things like, "Psh. Don't waste my time with your problems. Tell 'em to some one who cares."

Sounds like fun, doesn't it? :D So, I'll put everything up soon. I apologize for making it look like I disappeared off the face of the Earth. I was at camp, no internet access, you know...

Kaisoliekbai. :B

Short Stories!

Greetings!

Mmm, I am on a roll. I've written 5 shorts stories since Saturday, and they're so much fun. They include, "Aliens", "The Doll", "Coffee", "Balloons" and "Mother's Day".

I'm going to go along with the ghost short story now. It might be a couple chapters or so, and it's not only going to be dialogue like the other five. That'd kinda be too hard.

The rough plot idea thing for the ghost short story has something to do with sacrifice. That's basically all I've got so far. Of course, I think of the quotes before anything else and try to build the story off of quotes. That's how Alexa's Diary: Eighth Grade started. But as you can see, that was successful. I'm still writing that.

So any way, there's more of course to the ghost story (which might be titled something kick ass like "The Book of Days" or "Your Seven Days" or maybe something like "Some Ordinary Town") but the only sure thing I know about it is that it's about sacrifice. Ooooh, blah. Creepy, I know.

Yippee...

So, the last thing I'm going to ramble about is my plans for the other short stories of mine. The only dialogue ones. Those are fun. I'm going to try to write 26 of 'em. One for each letter of the alphabet. I've gotten "A", "B", "C", "D" and "M". I just don't know what to do for "E" and "F". Maybe "Eggs" for "E" and "Fish" for "F". But unlike the others, I can't just pull things off the top of my head (excuse me if that's not how the expression goes) that have to do with eggs and fish. I mean, really. Maybe I should look in the dictionary and pick out some word that looks like it could be made into a story? There's a thought.

Anyhow, my rambling is done. If you're still reading this, thanks for sticking through the whole post. I know, I know. Me+ talking= tiresome. I wouldn't be surprised if someone came up to me one day and said something like, "Stop talking. I've run out of aspirin." Fwee.

Thanks!

Second Post for May

Mmmkay, so hi again.

I just vanted to say...I just posted my first post for MAY! May! Yay May! May is a happy month. One of brownies and kittens and pretty sweaters. One of sunshine and astro-turf astro grass that's an unatural neon green happy color. One of birds who won't shut the freak up, the neighbor's children's maniacal laughter, and lawn mowers running over the flip flops that are coming out of the closet after a long winter.

Sickening, isn't it? I prefer rain.

So anyhow, I just posted my first May post! And this is my second. Cause for celebration? Yeha (that was on purpose. Pronunciation: Yeah-HUH).

Thanks!

Working

Hello!

I think I shall talk in a weird (veird) accent for this post.

Ehm, okay. The reason I have not been able to ehm...post, as you American people say for Alexa's Book Thinky, yes? Is ehm because the top that goes on my lap has been broken. Yes. Sad, yes. Broken, I know. So chapter eleven ehm, vill be long in coming because, ehm...my computer ees broken. All my ehm...files, yes? All my files are gone. Gone vith zee vind. I vill try to get zees chapter out as soon as ehm...possible. Anyvahne who has complaint? Can eet and stuff a footwear in eet. Thank you.

So for anyone who didn't understand what I just said...XD

Alright. The reason chapter ten took so long was that my computer was crashing and because I needed to get motivated. In the mood. So, chapter eleven might take a while in coming because Microsoft has been deleted from my computer, all my writing files have been deleted from my computer and I'm distraught. Like, everything except for my music is gone. Gone with the wind. I'm gonna try to get the chapter out as soon as possible but I dunno how long it'll take. Anyone who has complaints? XD Can it and put a sock in it.

Kidding. Really.

Really. No socks. Cookies instead.
So, thanks!

-D. Shoshan

P.S. You might not have noticed but I changed the name from "Winter Writing" to "From That Vital Organ In My Chest to Microsoft". From My Heart to Microsoft. Touchink, no? I'm zinkink zaht I have just touched your heart.

The Tenth of Chapters!

Heylo.

So, I'm working on chapter ten for Alexa's diary, my only and sure story right now. Maybe after this, I'll try to write something else, if not a sequel to Alexa's Diary.

So, anyway, the reason the chapter wasn't posted sooner was because my laptop has seriously been hatin' on me. Sometimes it'll look like it's about to turn on and be a good electronic device and then it'll freeze and I'll want to throw the thing against the wall in a fit of rage. Don't worry; I stop my self at the very last minute each time.

So, I'm still writing, yes. But it's coming along nicely and I'm motivated properly (went to the library and got around 30 books or so and a few CDs) so it should be done soon and by then, it'll probably be the end of this week or something.

In the meanwhile, I'm thinking of a few short story ideas. Ghost stories to be exact (-Le squee-). Ghost stories are my favorite. So I'm gonna try my hand at them and if it turns out relatively well, then it shall be published! Yippee.

Yes, so that's pretty much it. I though I'd share those things...I have...I'm getting back to having my lemon Italian ice. Wee.

Thanks!

Sometime in April...

Shalom!

Well, as I said, it is indeed sometime in April. April 6th to be exact. Over the two weeks I was in Israel (ripsnorting good times, I dare say) with my class, I thought up tens of thousands of hundreds of super-tastical ideas. For stories, poems, short stories...most possibly everything.

Not really, but you do see my point, don't you?

I have some wonderful ideas I can't wait to put into Microsoft. And on paper. Because you know, either of them are nice as long as you stomp on the ideas before they get away. Lately too, I've taken up the habit of using those clippy type things on pens. I just clip pens and what not onto the collar of my shirt and viola! I have pens and other assorted writing implements at hand. Quite convenient.

Anyhow, I'm back and I'm really freaking tired but I can't go to sleep tonight because then I'd be seriously jet-lagged. The plane ride back was a bitch, believe me. So, if any of my writing is loopy during the next week or so, blame it on those damn time zones.

Thanks!

I Be Going on a Trip

Hi.

Been away for a while (lyrics to some song that I heard on the radio)!

And I'm going to be away for even longer. 2 weeks! Yippee doodles. Or was I away for two weeks already? In that case, another two weeks, not counting this post today.

If you all read Alexa's Diary: Eighth Grade, then there's going to be an extra long chapter to make up for my absense, over which time I would have posted two more chapters, but...won't.

Extra long chapter. Be excited. Be very excited.

Thanks, and you'll hear from me again sometime in April! April! Everyone be excited. Be very excited.
