Hey,

I'm Arabella Knightfair!
(That's just my pen name, not my real name).

Well I like to write but I'm quite new at it so I appreciate any helpful feedback/reviews that point out what I could to do to improve my stories. I also appreciate normal reviews ;). I like reading as well with some of my favourite books being Twilight, The Gemma Doyle Trilogy and the Belgarid and Mallorean series from David Eddings. I love to act, dance, sing, play piano and in my spare time (when I have spare time) write =). By the way, I'm quite a romantic and I love fantasy stories. I have quite an imagination sometimes.

I hope you enjoy my stories!

NOTIFICATIONS!

(I'll update this area with news on my stories)

Sunday 22 November 2009

Hey all!

I would like to apologise with my lack of updates on my stories! My excuse is that I have been extremely busy with my course. I've just had no time to write and when I have had free time to myself I've just not been in the right frame of mind for writing which has sucked.

The good news is that this week is the absolute last week of my course! I graduate on December 16th. So I shall have a lot more time to sit down and just be able to focus on writing my stories. You never know I might get the motivation to add another chapter to "The Kingdom and the Guardian Angel' as well. Let's hope!

I have a concern though. And don't worry it's not about writing. It's just about money. I haven't had time for a part time job because my course has literally been like 10 - 13 hour days Monday - Friday every term. So I wanted weekends to relax, unwind and have fun. But now I need money, but I really don't want to get a part time job =\. You see I'm a creative person, so I can't stand waitressing or retail work or standing all day serving customers at a grocery store. I need to move and enjoy my work otherwise I get stressed and break down.

I worked as a waitress for 6 months at the end of last year and beginning of this year. And it was horrible. I felt so stessed because my boss was demanding, the customers were rich snobs that only accepted the best service so we were always on our toes trying to be perfect. And our boss never gave us any breaks... he didn't understand that concept of giving us them, he told us to take our own breaks, but how could we when he always understaffed us so there was never enough staff on at a time to let someone have a ten minute break, let alone a half hour one?

So that job made me despise waitressing. And plus while working there I found out I had gall stones... which is unusal because I'm so skinny. And so the smell of food set off the pain of my gall stones which meant EVERY night I worked I was in agony but I couldn't let that show, so I always acted (A very good time to be a good actor), I always just smiled and tried not to let it show that I just wanted to curl up in a ball and cry because it hurt so much.

So that job was extremely stressful and draining for me because of my gall stones and the boss being unfair. After my surgery to have my gall bladder removed I ended up just quitting. I couldn't handle it along side my 10 hour day course.

My course I've been doing is an On-Screen Acting course which I've absolutely loved! So I'm hoping to get acting work once I get an actors agent (which will hopefully be very soon). But obviously I need a part time job so I can earn money and pay for things like rent, food, clothes (Because all girls need them haha, plus I haven't bought myself any new clothes this whole year... I've just had no money) and most of all petrol which is costing me about 80 week...

So my question to all you guys is: What kind of part time job can I go for that's creative or fun and most of all flexible (Because of auditions)?

I was thinking about asking to work in a library as the girl who puts the books away and stuff, but would they let someone that's never worked in a library to do that? Do they need someone that know's how to work the computers and do the paper work to do that when there's no books to put away? And ovbiously that's because I love to read books and I'm a shy girl so I would also love to work in a library because I don't have to try and sell a certain number of stock to meet my quota thingy for the day or chit chat with customers which I find hard sometimes.

Just send me a message with ideas! I would really appreciate it!

(Just incase you don't know how to, there's a 'Send Message' button at the top just under my name!)

Thank you!

And expect more chapters to uploaded soon!

Hey everyone!

Well I just wanted to update everyone, first by apologizing with the lack of updates! It's just that I've been EXTREMELY busy with my course and I've found I have no free time at all. It's all assignments and homework. So I haven't had time to write. BUT I do have a three week holiday in a two weeks! So I hope that then I will find a lot more time to write and will be able to put up more than one chapter for TKaTGA.

It would be great to get motivation from you guys with reviews and things!

Keep them coming and add my story to your favourite's list!

Thanks,

Ara

THE KINGDOM AND THE GUARDIAN ANGEL

Kairi has just moved to Austin City with her parents. She starts her senior year of High School hoping to settle down and make new friends fast. Shy, determined, never been kissed - That's seventeen year old Kairi. She befriends Charlotte; a wealthy, beautiful and smart girl who everyone seems to be afraid of (Only because her Dad has a lot of power and has the ability to destroy anything or anyone) and Josh; one of the most popular guys in school - that all the girls adore - who is the Captain of the basketball team.

Kairi's peaceful life is suddenly interrupted by an - "earthquake? But there's never been an earthquake in Austin City before! That's just crazy." - An earthquake still hit Kairi's school regardless of it being 'crazy'.

Kairi finds herself waking up in another - "world? Now you're pushing it." -

What happens when she's asked to search for the Guardian Angel that protects them all? - "Um, she goes off and searches for this Guardian Angel?" - Duh. - "Well I'm glad as hell it's not me they asked. Thieves, terrifying creatures I've never heard of and death will be hot on her heels I'm sure." - Yes, well this story isn't about you, so stop interrupting me and let me finish! - "Sorry..." - Thank you.

The End.

HIGH SCHOOL DRAMA

Ashleigh is a book nerd, she loves to read books and she loves to learn so she studies a lot. Sometimes she gets teased by other people, mostly the cheerleaders who have a very outspoken and mean Team Captain; Kristine. Because the cheerleaders express their opinion about Ashleigh a lot of other people express the same view since the Cheerleaders are extremely hot. That's makes Ashleigh at the near bottom of the popularity pyramid.

Ashleigh and her two best friends; Lauren and Danielle, are in their senior year of high school. Together they get through the dramas that occur, but will they be able to stay best friends after? Will something break them apart?

Spencer is the hottest and most popular guy at school. Everyone loves him, especially the girls, well except Ashleigh. Spencer's family and Ashleigh's family have lived next door to each other for over twenty years, which naturally makes them great friends. Ashleigh hates Spencer and can't stand the boy because of the way that he treats her.

To Ashleigh’s horror, she finds out Lauren likes Spencer, and out of friendship she agrees to try and set Lauren and Spencer up. Will the nasty, yet gorgeous Spencer fall for Lauren? Or will he break her heart and hurt her feelings?

What about the guy Ashleigh likes? Will Ashleigh accomplish a relationship with him?

Is there a guy in store for Danielle?

What is it that Ashleigh starts to realise as she helps Lauren?
