Yes, I missed a few days... a week. So I'm sorry. Forgive me?
Retro-Specter is at 40, and two people were supposed the pick it >_> they HAVEN'T. I'm at 63,000 words RIGHT NOW. And heres a link: http://www.inkpop.com/projects/94667/retro-specter/ Oh and this book sucks, so I wouldn't click that link if I were you. I mean, the author can't even write a decent short pitch. The prologue to Tourniquet is posted here.
Music: Walk Away (feat. B.o.B.) by The Script
Quote: "If I had somewhere better to be, I wouldn't be here."
I'm pissed, if you didn't know. I got DQ'ed from 200 IM. And I really don't want to ever touch chlorine again, in my life. Screw fifty meters, screw 200 IM, screw my crappy swimming skills and screw my book, which is the worst piece of crap I've ever seen.
If I don't show up to practice ever again, tell Nick why. Actually, don't; he'll probably force me to come then ._.
Out.

Happy Easter!
Chocolate, bunnies, donuts, coffee and staying home so I can notify my eighty-five people that I uploaded chapter 17. So go read NOW! Actually stay and read the rest of this post before you read.
Retro-Specter is at 43. With three promises to pick. So whoo-hoo. Yeah, I'm not in a good mood, big suprise. As soon as I finish writing I'll start REwriting. Answering questions: Michelle, Maiden's Code isn't up yet, sorry. Retro-Specter comes first, since that's my major project. And I'm not liking Maiden's Code or Tourniquet right now. Heck, I'm not even liking RS! But if you're bored, go read The Locket on my inkpop profile. Mushroom: No. Just no. Chapter 17 marks a little over 40k words. Link: http://www.inkpop.com/projects/94667/retro-specter/
Music and quotes have been put on hold.
I'm exhausted.
How are you?

Okay. Fine. I'm done arguing.
I am. I'll accept you love my book. I will, but don't expect me to see anything but fault. I see mistakes, errors and the first three chapters that have to be rewritten as soon as I finish the book. So, Hana, consider this my "I surrender, throw me a party and swap/promote for my book all you like" (yes, lovely, I did see that thread and I did get a comment. Why are you not swapping for The Hiddens, missy? Don't you dare give up on that book >:O) white flag deal. I will stop arguing with you.
For now.
In regards to Retro-Specter, hopefully chapter seventeen will be up tonight. As of right now it sits at *checks and dies* 44. And I want the green arrow to stay. I'd also like it if you would give me time to finish and rewrite the darn 90,000 word book! Anywhom... http://www.inkpop.com/projects/94667/retro-specter/
So, Maiden's Code is coming along okay. Not sure I like it yet, but more sword fights to come, if I live through the romance scenes. Unfortunately, the book wouldn't be the same without them. Tourniquet is doing pretty well, and I'm sure Hana and Savanna will love it. I don't think I'm at a 1,000 words yet... Retro-Specter is my priority.
No quote, no music.
Swimming=butterfly. Wasn't that fun, Brian?
Plans for tomorrow, y'all?

Friday. Thank gosh.
Not because of the song, but because Sanctuary 312 is tonight. Hangover better be good, 'cause if it ain't Im gunna hurt somebody (*coughs* Damian Kindler! *coughs*). I'm in a bad mood. Very bad. And so far, chocolate and chips hasn't helped. I pray for your soul if you have to talk to me today. And I still can't sleep -_- thanks for your help though, Hana.
Book: Retro-Specter. I have important news regarding this "fabulous" novel (yes, I got a comment saying it was fabulous, and that they had to read it because apparently inkpop is hyped up because of my book. These rumors have not been confirmed by me, but everytime I enter a thread the topic of discussion changes from popular books to something else O.o inkies, I'm watching you. If you can confirm these rumors, that Retro-Specter really is being ranted about, I will fall into a surprise induced coma. Thank you for your time, fungus is good for your personal health). This news is that today, hopefully, chapter 17 will be posted, and that will mark the 40,000 word mark, or about halfway. I would also like to say that yesterday, the two month anniversary, was successful. I now sit at rank 47.
Music: whatever you want. -_-
Quote: "As if I have a bloody choice." ~Deirdra. And no, sweetheart, you don't.
Swimming: I skipped yesterday due to extreme exhaustion. Today is the same, but I don't think I'll be skipping.
So. Happy Easter Friday.

Dun dun DUN!
Chapter sixteen of Retro-Specter is up. And y'all're going to hate me for the way it ends. Mostly because that is the last chapter I'm putting up. The rest you'll see when it gets to the top five or when its on a book store shelf, all edited and pretty. ***This choice may change. If it does you'll be the second to know.***
So. Music: Evanescence. Again, 'nuff said.
Quote: “I do not think there is any thrill that can go through the human heart like that felt by the inventor as he sees some creation of the brain unfolding to success... Such emotions make a man forget food, sleep, friends, love, everything.” ~Nikola Tesla.
Book: Retro-Specter. http://www.inkpop.com/projects/94667/retro-specter/
So, I have a new book idea. And I'm posting the pitch, so you can give your opinions.
[Untitled] (Tourniquet)
Being hunted isn’t easy. But what if you were the one doing the hunting?
Cassandra is lost in a world not her own. A practical joke and dare gone wrong brings her into modern society, away from her homeland through the rift between worlds. A traumatizing experience in this land with carriages that aren’t pulled by horses and people that wear clothing exposing their knees. As if that wasn’t enough.
Now she’s forced to train and fight, for the good of all people, to keep the creatures of her home from breaching the gap between worlds and destroying lives of innocent people. Modern humans have never seen myths in flesh. And they don’t want to, for it could mean destruction to both worlds. Cassandra must join the elite group of warriors, what the Greeks remember as the Hunt of Artemis, and protect the balance. Stemming the flow of monsters is vital to the peace of both worlds.
The rift has opened again. Myths are drawn from the corners and shadows of both worlds.
The Hunt is on. And things are about to get ugly.
***
Well? Ive got four people on the notification list. Hana, Mom, Angel and A.K.A.
Swimming. -_- again. Im convinced Im going to puke or pass out.

*bangs head on keyboard*
Today is one of those days, when I look at what I've done and only see mistakes. I don't see the 61 next to my project. I see the typos, the infodumps, the crappy sentences that need to be fixed. But I can't stop writing because if I do stop to edit I'll just hurt myself. So I'm going to keep going on Retro-Specter and finish it. Then I'll rewrite. Maybe then I won't scare so many people away.
Thanks to Fungus and Michelle for reading the first chapter. Those grammar mistakes will be fixed when I finish. And Fungus, I like my blog, so go fix your own. At your own risk do you dare teach me to use technology. I'll stick to my iTouch, thanks.
Music: Evanescence. 'Nuff said. They aren't so good live, but from speakers of my iPod they rock. Literally.
Quote: “If Edison had a needle to find in a haystack, he would proceed at once with the diligence of the bee to examine straw after straw until he found the object of his search.
I was a sorry witness of such doings, knowing that a little theory and calculation would have saved him ninety per cent of his labor.” ~Nikola Tesla.
What am I missing? Oh, swim practice. -_- That just gets "the face".
So, any complaints? Comments? Concerns? Money? *holds out hat*
Oh and a big that you to MusicIsMe (on inkpop) and mzmroxx (also inkpop). Music for the Maiden's Code cover. Its fabulous, and works for a fantasy/action/romance combination. Mzmroxx for helping me develop my three main characters, Deirdra, Guinevere and Arthur. It needed work.

Due to popular request....
You guys are hysterical. ^_^ The quote section is back. And Fungus, the mistake in the summary was made because I type to fast and haven't fixed it yet. Blargh, says Bob the Familiar Guy. He agrees with me :P
Now, for those of you who don't know me, ignore that above paragraph.
Quote of the day: "Let the future tell the truth, and evaluate each one according to his work and accomplishments. The present is theirs; the future, for which I have really worked, is mine." ~Nikola Tesla (the dude that made the USA run on alternating current)
One day, I shall do a full analysis of the life of Nikola Tesla. And I'll post it here. This man is truely amazing. Choices: agree or die :P
Music: Two Steps From Hell. These guys are making the plot nubbins run rampant.
Book: Retro-Specter. http://www.inkpop.com/projects/94667/retro-specter/
So. Swim meet in two weeks. -_- I'm going to die. Nick, why did you put me in all freestyle events?!
For those of you who ACTUALLY read this: *hug*
