At the moment, I'm sitting here wasting time while I try to overcome my writer's block. It's not true writer's block, though... more of the "Why can't I get this one thing to work" on one project kind. I am almost finished with my first novel, and I just had to go and get myself stuck on the last three chapters. <---- this is my overall opinion of the situation right now.

I have another project going... two or three of them, actually... but I was so sure I'd finish this before my birthday... which is tomorow, in case anyone is interested. My other writing projects are going quite well: One is a collaberative book series that I'm working on with my best friend in the whole world, and then I have 5 chapters on the sequel to my first novel and a pretty good idea of how the next one is going to go.

Well, I'm going to have to cut this short... I just got a great idea that I need to ask my mom about. If you managed to stay awake reading this, please leave a comment with your opinions! I'd love some help learning to blog...

Just a short note: I'm finished with the 24th chapter of my first novel!!! I'm planning to work some more on my writing today, so perhaps I will complete the book soon? 

What is a morning, but full of promise? What is an evening if not both hope and closure at the same time?

And what am I but a writer who desperatly needs to be working on one of her other projects?

Anyway, Today was a Tuesday, so after my harp lessson (which went quite well, thanks for asking.) and a short trip to the dentist's (I think I must have "thrown off their groove"... not many people are allergic to flouride) we got to go to the hardware store (Lowes)! What fun!

No, I'm serious. Fun! Or at least it is to me... because Dad is letting me help with the monsterous project of  re-doing the entire yard, in addition to my roses. And he let me get the copper pipes and such that I need for a fountain-sculpture that I've been wanting to make for a long time. So it was a good trip.

I'm really having trouble figuring out this whole "blog" thing. What exactly is it that I am supposed to write about? I'm not an expert in anything, and I don't feel comfortable sharing my personal life with the world. "Observations" of the world and the people in it are just about all I can think of to write, but there isn't very much regularity or specific criteria in those, so when I write them they come out sounding a bit strange if read all at once. Oh well...

What I need... is a reader... just one would be enough... someone who actually enjoied reading my take on life in general and my odd sense of humor... and if I could find one it would be so much easier to write things down for that person to read.
