Now Playing Tracks

Welp.

I finally has a character concept made of Ali and Dari, plus two other characters. Not sure if I’ll post it, though, since it came out kinda… well, I don’t know how to describe it. Long story short, I’m not too good at drawing, so I’m forced to use online dress-up/makeover games for concepts, which have limited options.

It’s no big deal, really, just a little frustrating sometimes.

The other two characters in the concept are Glenari Starrenell and Pryntella Norama. Glen is Dari’s younger brother, and Pryn is the daughter of the elf city’s leader. I had the most trouble with Glen, and he came out looking exactly like Dari. Not intended at all.

I guess I’ll just crop it to show only Ali and Dari.

Also, I still have no idea what I’m really going to title this novel. I guess I still have to work out a huge plot point before that will be able to happen.

I don’t know, I’ve been having issues lately… but I’m working through it.

With that rambling update, I’m off to unwind from the day and (hopefully) have a brainstorm.

Keep it Stellar. Fair Eventide.

I was dreaming beautifully.

Then life woke me up. It felt like I was being slammed into a stone wall. Covered in glass. And yeah, it hurt. It hurt a lot. But, do you know what? You know what the worst of it is?

I deserved it. I deserve it so much. And I hate myself for it. I needed that slap in the face. I’m ashamed for actually needing to figure this out in this way. But I’m glad it finally did, because I would be living in a lie if it hadn’t.

Thanks for cutting off that mask, life. Thank you. Now leave me alone so I can think.

Have you ever wondered…

…if you’re writing bears any similarity to some great novelists and writers in history?

Well, I recently found a site that lets you find out exactly which writers you write like.

It’s called “I Write Like” and can be found here: http://iwl.me

Just copy and paste any English text from anything you’ve composed and click “Analyze.”

I’ve gotten Stephanie Meyer, Dan Brown, and William Shakespeare.

Who do you write like? You can reblog with your answer if you want.

Keep it Stellar, and Fair Eventide.

Character concepts of Vivienne Étoile and Sir Brian Wake from my novel. I realize they are off center, which may bug some people, but I don’t feel like remaking it. XD This was made using “The Tudors” game on Doll Divine (since I don’t have enough drawing talent of my own).

Progress is So Sweet

Welp, just a short update on things.

I have made quite a few developments in the preliminary development of a novel that is currently titled “Voice of Peace.” I should mention that it took at least three days to create this title, and even now it is a working title. It may get changed once or twice before it’s finished. Maybe even five times. XD

Anyhoo, I finally figured out what the main character, Alison Breyers really is. Don’t ask, that’d be spoiling the sequel. Ali is 17, about 5’6”, long, straight, dark brown hair, fair skin that is slightly tan, and deep emerald green eyes. She dresses as an elf for Halloween and ends up meeting a real- no, your eyes aren’t tricking you- a real elf by the name of Darievan Starrenell. He’s 6’5”, fair skin, long, straight, auburn hair, and gorgeous deep blue sapphire eyes… *sigh*… ahem, sorry, where was I? Oh, right.

Was RPing with my friend, and her character kept bullying poor Dari. I wanted to slap him, but eventually Ali did anyway, so it’s all cool.

SO, Ali meets Dari, who thinks Ali is a real elf because of the costume, and asks her to join him on his quest to find the one thing who can prevent his home from a war. Ali at first refuses, but evil strikes Houston and threatens Ali’s family and friends, and she is forced to flee and go with Dari anyway. SO EXCITED, OH MY GAWD! C8

I’m also happy because I now have four chapters complete in Sorceress: Awakening, and chapter 5 is well on its way. Over the 10,500 word milestone: AHHHH! See? Weekends can be productive!

Also, I’ve decided that maybe I shouldn’t commit to making character concept sketches… I’m not patient enough for that. Oh well. Maybe my friend can find enough spare time to help me out… and she knows who she is. C;

With that, I take my leave for now. Keep it Stellar, and Fair Eventide.

Short and Sweet Update

I have made the decision that from now on, most of my posts will be in regard to my writing. That means fan-fictions, novels, character concepts, etc. I will be adding a new section for a new story I’ve created, and also taking down the old sections for my fan-fictions until I have a lot more written for them and am able to update them regularly. I will explain the new page name soon.

I will continue to post pictures and videos I happen across which are meaningful in some way- either it makes me laugh, cry, say “awwww,” or just think long and hard about something.

Also, I will begin using a new phrase to end off my posts. I will keep saying “Keep it Stellar,” but only on the personal posts. The posts about my writing will have the new sign off. I’ll start by using it to end this post. Keep an eye out for “Shift” to appear on my page.

Fair Eventide
