Happy Halloween

Hi everyone,

Just wanted to wish you all a Happy Halloween. Though I guess it's weird that we say Happy. I mean, people are always trying to make it scary (you know haunted houses, etc)

But anyway..............

Happy Halloween!

Why No Comments?

My friend, Lauren, wrote this poem for her blog. And I thought it was really cute, so I added a couple words. Please read & follow!

I write where all can see.
I write in an age of great technology!
I write where you can reply easily!
So why, O why no comments do I see?


To the faithful commenteers, I thank you!

Outlaw Princess - The Synopsis

14 year old Rowyn is the grand-daughter of the legendary Robin Hood, one of the famous leaders of the Forest People, or Outlaws. But But Rowyn doesn't know that. She only knows life as the second royal daughter to Queen Xenia and King Fedric of Tittanny. She knews a life of wealth and royalty. She knows life under a different name, as Princess Gwyndalyn of Tittany. Not as Rowyn Thaynn, outlaw princess.

On a secret trip to the village, Gwyn overhears a conversation between the villian and his sidekick. They are talking or plotting to wipe out all the Forest People, and avenge his grandfather and father's deaths at the hand of Robin and kin. Gwyn decides to learn all she can about the Forest People. What she learns changes her life forever.

She connects the Forest people to the strange images and unfamiliar tunes wafting through her dreams at night. Somehow she is connected to the Forest. Her true family is part of the Forest People. Gwyn never really thought about not belonging to the true Royal family, she never thought about how her family doesn't have her chocolate (dark) hair and piercing green eyes. None are like her. They are different. In Many Ways.

So Gwyn sets out on a quest, to find out who she is, and to save the People of the Forest from extinction.



That is the synopsis so far. It will most likely change. When it does, I will post the latest and greatest for all to see. What do you think? PLEASE COMMENT!

Children of the Promise
by Dean Hughes

This was a great series. It's an LDS fictional story about the Thomas family during the time of World War 2. It is like the Work and the Glory series! So engaging, and fun! I loved following the lives the of the Thomases. Now I am dying to read the sequel series called HEARTS OF THE CHILDREN.

Thank you Grandma, for letting me borrow these books!

The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel
by Micheal Scott

This is another good fantasy series. I really enjoyed the 1st 4 books (two more are yet to be released). It's not as good as some other books I have read, but very engaging and interesting. I really like them.

Ella Minnow Pea
by Mark Dunn

This was a hilarious play on words! Very enjoyable! Good for all above 8 (anyone younger than 8 might not get half of it). A Must Read.

The Hunger Games
by Suzanne Collins

Yes, I read them. The very popular books. Okay, I must say it was a very interesting topic. VERY ENGAGING. Once you start you will not want to stop. The first two books were really good. But I must say that the 3rd is quite a dissapointment. It didn't really get going for me till about a 3rd of the way through. Altogether, it was very interesting. I really liked them. But they do not deserve a slot on my ALL TIME FAVORITES LIST.

I'm A TEENager!

I never posted, but I am now( as of August 5th) an OFFICIAL teenager! I'm 13! Yeah! To tell the truth, it doesn't feel that different. Except that I can accounts (such as facebook) legally. (I'm not suggesting anything!) This is what I had for my birthday:

Anyway, just thought I'd drop that out there!
