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!

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!
