Les Miserables

Wow, I'm so stupid... What with forgetting to post for so long, I never said that I finished reading Les Miserables. (Victory dance!) It was 1222 pages long. I had been reading it since the first week in June, I finished it last sunday. (More victory dance.)

Yay me! Now I'm gonna read The Phantom of the Opera. I just need to wait till it gets in at the library.

Cheerio, peeps!

P.S. When we got to London and Paris for winter break, we're gonna see the opera house Phantom is based on. :-)

The Eye

Ok, here is an idea for what I want on the cover of one of my books, The Digger's Daughter. That's the story with Artemis, and all of those guys.

How does it look? I got the original eye from this site. And don't insult it, or anything. It took me at least a few hours, over a period of about three days to finish this in Photo Shop...

Cheerio, peeps!
