I got no work done yesterday; we were getting our carpet cleaned so I couldn't get to my laptop (or my room, for that matter) so I couldn't write my book. I was so ticked cause I was at such a good part in my book, too! Ha! My luck, I swear.
So, in this time I had to take the only actually seat in the house, I came up with a new idea. A new book. "Dust Among the Stars". Another fantasy about another boy. Go figure. But this one is about the boy and his "mother", who really just lets him stay at her house since he's homeless, they go to a new world and have to change the world that's already been taken over.
To do so, they must enlist the help of several people to try and set this new world free. Whether they return to Earth or not hasn't really been decided, but I haven't really gotten anywhere other than the first two pages introducing the main character, Jackson Leo, the currently homeless, suicidal teen. Yeah. Well, semi-suicidal. He's all like, "Dude, it doesn't matter. I'm gonna die soon" and stuff. I'm sure you catch my drift.
So, I trapped myself in my room for the first time in a while and managed to get that damn part done that I have been trying to finish for three days. It was only about two, three pages, but still. I wanted to get it done. At least I had time to think about it. By it, I mean whether Mavrik is going to live or die. I did decide on something, but you're going to have to wait to find out.
Trust me, Mavrik is a loveable character. You are all going to hate me. Maybe. Well, we'll see how this plays out.
So, now that I can get some crap done, let's get some MORE crap done. So I can finish by my estimated time, which is Halloween.
Current stats:
Chapter: 19
Pages: 272 normal pages, 14 a chapter, 97 full length pages.
Fun Fact: "The Secret Of The Hunters" is my longest story yet. My second longest has 16 chapters, 52 full length pages. Big difference, huh?
Fun Fact #2: "The Secret of the Hunters" was originally supposed to be about a professional, young archer helping a runaway Princess cross the borders and marry her Prince Charming.
