Um...hi.
Read my stories. Review my stories.
That's it.
Oh, and call me Isabel. It's not my real name, but I'm not giving it to you, so mwa ha ha.
If you read any, read Reality. That's the one I like the best, therefore the one I will be updating most. I'll try to update the others, but I don't know if I'll get very far until I finish Reality. That's my top priority at the moment.

Hey, I'm really, really sorry that I haven't updated Reality in so long. I have no good excuse. I can't even say that I've gotten Writer's Block, because I already have the rest of the chapter completely planned out. No, I know what to write - I just don't seem to have the will and the humour to write it. It seems that all my humour has been sucked right out of me. A cruel world indeed, when your humour decides to leave you.
Well, I'll try my best to finish this chapter - and I will finish it, despite what you may think. I'm currently writing another story, a drama, and that seems to be fulfilling my desire to briefly leave the humour genre. Actually, I think I might post the story. It's called And So We Pretend, and I rather like it, although I'm not sure how everyone else will feel. Anyway, I enjoy writing it, and that, I suppose, is what really counts, does it not?
Yes, yes, of course. If I ever find myself writing soley for others, I must remember to urge myself to stop. As much as I adore all of you, writing for others and not yourself is something all writers should stay away from, because writing is an art, and like all arts, it can not and should not be forced.

I still haven't updated Reality, I know, and I feel horrible.
If anyone's still interested, I'm going to finish not only the chapter but the whole story. It just may take awhile.
I will finish it, though. I will.
Oh, yes, and look for a new story coming soon. I have it planned out chapter by chapter so I shouldn't ever get Writer's Block with it. And the chapters aren't going to be as long as the chapters in Reality, so it will be easier and faster to update.

I'm bored, so...my favorite quotes:
The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances: if there is any reaction, both are transformed.
Carl Jung
When you have seen as much of life as I have, you will not underestimate the power of obsessive love.
J. K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, 2005
It is our choices...that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities.
J. K. Rowling, Harry Potter and The Chamber of Secrets, 1999
Age is foolish and forgetful when it underestimates youth.
J. K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, 2005
It is the unknown we fear when we look upon death and darkness, nothing more.
J. K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, 2005
Indifference and neglect often do much more damage than outright dislike.

Youth cannot know how age thinks and feels. But old men are guilty if they forget what it was to be young.

Ah, music. A magic beyond all we do here!

There are some things you can't share without ending up liking each other.
J. K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, 1997
You fail to recognize that it matters not what someone is born, but what they grow to be.

This is how it is - this is why you're not in the Order - you don't understand - there are things worth dying for!
J.K. Rowling
If you want to know what a man's like, take a good look at how he treats his inferiors, not his equals.

Numbing the pain for a while will make it worse when you finally feel it.

Indeed, your failure to understand that there are things much worse than death has always been your greatest weakness.

You don't love a woman because she is beautiful, but she is beautiful because you love her.

Sympathy constitutes friendship; but in love there is a sort of antipathy, or opposing passion. Each strives to be the other, and both together make up one whole.

Absence is to love what wind is to fire; it extinguishes the small, it enkindles the great.

Right, that's it for now, because I'm sure you guys really care and all. More to come, just because I'm a bored person with no life on every day of the week but Wednesday.

Yes, I know, I haven't updated in a long time. I will, I swear. Reality will be finished! And the other stories of course...do I have any other stories up? I may have taken them down...hm... Well, regardless, every story that's up will be finished, it might just take awhile.
However, I wanted to tell you that I won't be able to write anything all next week. I have Band Camp from 9 in the morning to 8 at night. I'm in the Colorguard. I can't go on the computer for all that week because the remaining time I have left of each day I have to spend desperately trying to finish my summer homework. Yes, summer homework, it's horrible, isn't it? It's a humongous, boring book that I have to read, and a large essay that I have to finish. I'm only on chapter 3 in the book. I know, I'm horrible, yes, yes. I should have read more when I had the time, I know...well....I didn't...so....yeah....
I'll shut up now. I should really get off and read more, shouldn't I?

It's been a long time, I know. School's started, though, and homework and afterschool activities take up a lot of my time. AP World History is hard, and I always seem to have an essay to write for it. My other classes require a lot of studying and homework. And I have something afterschool Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and every other Friday. And Saturdays I have something. I'm also going to be getting a job soon. I'll try to write more, but between that and wanting to finish the books I'm reading and having a little free time on the computer and writing different stories, I really don't have much time.
Everything will be finished, of course, it will just take a while.

So...I know, I haven't updated anything. Sorry. I've been even more busy with school this year than I was last year. I'm in about 50 billion clubs and such, and I have an essay for either AP World History or English every other week, and I have tons of homework, and there's been some other stuff, and altogether my life has been this one big tangle, and I really never really have time to do anything, and I just spilled pop on the keyboard, and...sorry. All I seem to do is make escuses, but I truly haven't had time for a long time to do much writing at all. But school is ending soon. After finals and regents, I should be free to write TONS. I'm looking forward to it. Nobody really cares, probably, because I know everyone has lost interest in my stories, but...oh well. I feel like explaining.
Bye! I'm supposed to be writing an English essay. And an English speech. Don't you think that's absolutely wretched of someone? To assign an essay and a speech at the same time?
Honestly.
