Happy Birthday!



As I've said before, I think, I write books. Well, the main character in my first series is named Artemis Roswell (pronounced Rose-well). Today is the day I have put her birthday on. So...HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Artemis! :-) Yay for her. This is the picture that inspired me to create her, when I started the school project to write a story. And NOW look where it's taken me! I have a whole series of books going! So, I tip my hat to whoever drew this picture, (Cuz it CERTAINLY wasn't me. I got it off www.deviantart.com.) because I would never have become an author if I hadn't found this picture you drew! Thanks SOOOO much! :-)

Vanilla Twilight by Owl City

This is a very beautiful song. Can some one say New Moon?

Trying out for plays.

I just tried out for a bunch of plays today. My monologue was a letter from Pride and Prejudice. I sang a piece of Little People from Les Miserables for my song. I think I did horribly but what's done is done. (Shrug.)

Twilight Saga site

This has cool stuff about Twilight and really hard trivia. I know, I helped make it. The poem on the first page is mine.

Here's the poem, if you don't want to look at the site:

Team Switzerland

Jacob is a jerk in Eclipse, constantly crossing the line. In New Moon he also crosses the line, trying to be a good friend to Bella. In Breaking Dawn he is a jerk for the whole book, till the last few chapters. Twilight is the only book where he's fairly decent.
Edward is an over-protective idiot. He has first right on Bella and Jacob should've just accepted that. However, Edward was an idiot to leave and think that he could stay away. He should have payed more attention to poor Alice.
Edward is better than Jacob, though. (In my opinion.) He has had rather more life experience, so he some what understands the consequences of his actions better. (Not much, though.) Edward is more willing to sacrifice things for Bella. Jacob seems (sometimes) to only think of himself. He doesn't seem to quite grasp that Bella was perfectly happy with Edward and now he is totally messing up there lives.
Although, there are sometimes when you have a perfectly good right to feel sorry for Jacob. Like certain times in Breaking Dawn, from his point of view. However, he antagonizes Edward a little too much for my liking.
That's why I'm on Team Switzerland. However I'm on the edge, leaning much more towards Edward than Jacob.

Boulevard of Broken Dreams by Green Day

This song was practically made for Edward Cullen.

Les Miserables

Les Miserables is one BIG book (1222 pages). It's also really good. Some 200 or so years after it was written some people came along and decided to make a musical out of it. Which was quite a good idea, in my opinion. It follows the book very well and it has great music. This song is "On My Own".

The Wizard of Oz


The Wizard of Oz is a strange book. Especially because of what so many people did to it in the years after it was written. First, they made a movie of it. That was perfectly acceptable. It's a good movie, too. Even though it doesn't follow the book hardly at all. (Did you know that the origional shoes Dorothy got were silver?) Except, then Gregory Maguire came along an wrote an excedingly disturbing book about how the Wicked Witch (Elphaba) wasn't actually all that bad. Then some one came along and made a musical out of that. Wicked the Musical is TOTALLY awesome. I've seen it twice already. But, like I said before, the book is highly disturbing.
