Hello. I just want to let you know that I am here on FP to get some advice for my books. If there is something wrong feel free to correct me however you would like. Please review and all that good stuff. Thank you.
If you are having problems with your story (have writers' block, don't feel like writing it anymore, can't seem to finish anything, bad character development, etc.) please read How to Successfully Complete a Successful Story! by glitterjewele. It is one of the best things I have read and it has really helped me. It is in my favorites list.
It All Started With A Note is getting published in my school's literary magazine!! I was so excited when I found out that I cried! I'm so happy right now, my dream is to have one of my stories published and-even though it's only for the school-it has now come true! Yay! jumps up and down screaming This is the best birthday present in the world!
Updates
The worst thing in the world happened. My laptop started to work again a few months ago and everything was fine and dandy and I got a few stuff up, but now it won't work again and the worst thing is that it stopped working when I had the perfect idea for Moving On and my mom was being uncooperative. So I won't be writing for a while, sorry.
Moving On: Chapter 3 is up!! I don't know when Chapter 4 will be up and don't expect it any time soon. I'm a little less than half-way done, but it might be shorter than all the rest.
Just Another Normal Fairy Tale: I'm working on it, but I have to fix some things and maybe rewrite everything. I most likely won't update until I'm finished with Moving On, which is moving slow.
Trusted Traitor: This is going to take a while to get done. It's actually the prequal to a book I started writing a long time ago so I really want to get this finished, but I don't know when that will happen.
One-shots
Isn't it Ironic?: Just a story I had been toying around in my mind for a while and finally turned it into a one-shot. It didn't quite turn out the way I had planned, but nothing ever does. It's not my best. In fact it's pretty bad, so I'll rewrite it someday.
It All Started With A Note: I am very, very pleased with how this turned out. I didn't even plan on writing it and I certainly didn't plan on so many people liking it. (k, it may not be so many people, but to me it is!) I love this one-shot and I can't stop feeling so good for writing it. It's not all that good in my opinion, but after all those good reviews, it might be my self-criticism telling me that it's not so good. Edited.
Valentine's Day: I started this a month ago because when I tried to write a Christmas one-shot I didn't finish it until a week after Christmas. So I started this a month ago and finished a week ago. I was expecting to get it up on time and then FP decides to work on their website. So, I tried putting it up on the 15th and my internet stopped working. Maybe it was a sign, but whatever the reason, I finally got it up. Yay! I know it's cliche, but I decided to write it anyway. Did you know that I got three things for Valentine's Day? Yeah, it was from my mom, my mom's friend and my dad. At least I got something, right? Maybe it's because I moved and left all my friends behind. Would you consider a hug a Valentine's Day present? Because I got a hug, and not just any hug. Nope, I got a hug from this red haired hottie. YES! Anyway, I hope you like my story even if I don't.
Trinity: Ok, so this one is a little dumb. I'm actually going to change a lot of it, I just wanted to get it finished and so it was rushed at the end and I am going to fix that. Anyway, I need a title. I name my stories after the main character if I can't think of a title and I couldn't for this one, so any ideas? Please?
