The Fault in Our Stars: http://dft.ba/-tfios

I'll be in Amsterdam THIS FRIDAY evening. Ticket info:…

Lincoln International Airport is hit by a violent snowstorm and a plane gets stuck on the main runway. As staff struggle to keep the airport open their personal relationships cause more problems. To make matters worse, a man arrives at the airport determined to blow up a plane. The drama unfolds as the storm reaches its speak.

I've just finished this book, and I'm a bit disappointed. The book really entartained me overall, but the ending was not as impacting as I…

  I love to write. I’ve written a draft of a book that I am continually working on and making better but now I am helping someone else with their work! I’m quite excited to be a sort of ‘editor’ for someone. It’s really quite fun. The story is really good as far as I have read and I’m really happy I get to help out with this book. I really look forward to seeing how everything plays out.

  As a ‘learn as I go’ writer I find this ‘editor’ thing is really great for me. To get to see…

Chapter 1:

            My eyes opened slowly. I looked at the clock. 6:30 AM. Wasn’t it Saturday? Why was I waking up this early? I went to the bathroom and showered.

I went downstairs and saw that the clocks down there were all reading 6:30 AM. Huh? I went to the kitchen. My mom was cooking bacon on the stove. I looked at it. I could see the bubbles of cooking grease, but they weren’t popping. My mom seemed frozen. I looked at my dad. He seemed frozen, too. He was…

Almost forgot, but here I am to blog about the book I plan on writing eventually at some point if I can ever get motivated on it like I used to be. Also, I forgot to ever try to find our Lord of the Rings books tonight. While everything I have written here is accurate, I haven't taken the description very seriously, so it's pretty lighthearted. The actual novel will likely be far less so, at least as far as overriding theme goes. The book will take itself seriously.

So my…

So I'm attempting to write a novel in 100 days.

So far I'm a bit behind on writing and would love some encouragement from fellow people to keep me going

I run my whole writing operation on my Tumblr which includes Writing a novel in 100 days post for anyone who would be interested in starting their own 100 novel adventure.

So ask me questions on my book? I love…

This book brought caused me to question more than any other books I have read by Hesse and that is saying a lot.

Here is a quick wiki-summary:

Narcissus and Goldmund is the story of a young man,…

This is the first chapter in a book that I have been working on for a few years. I really want to do a chapter by chapter revealing of it. I really want your guys' opinion on it, so if you could read and comment on it that would be lovely.

Chapter 1

The grass beside her rustled. She heard the roar of the lion. She looked through her binoculars to locate the fierce predator.

“I see the lion Daddy! I see the lion!”

“Yah…

Lately, I've had tons of people tell me how big of a nerd I am. I laughed and resisted the urge to tell them, "Thank you, I know I get way too excited about stuff." Because if I said that then they would want to know what I meant and then I'd have to spend an hour explaining who John and Hank Green are and what a Nerdfighter is.

Most of my friends have read at least Looking for Alaska, so they know who John is, but they just don't care how amazing he is as a vlogger.…

I wrote a novel this year. It's called Living On, and it's about a girl in a mental hospital learning to let go and move on from toxic things and people in her life. I'm planning on trying to get it published shortly and would loooove it if you followed my blog:
