I'm feelin' the love today. I posted the complete first chapter of my novel, Eventide, today on YWS and recieved three postive reviews on it. I'm so happy, you probably can't even understand. The first chapter has come so far, and now I'm feeling good about keeping going with this thing. I'm peridocially editing, and trying to write new stuff regularly.
The Big Goal: Have a complete first draft by the time I leave for college.
I'm regularly astounded by the kindness of people who have never met me. I have a lot of friends all over through YWS and everyone is so nice. I hope to forge closer friendships with these people, and make new friends this summer through the site.
My parents love me. It's crazy, sometimes, parental love. My dad spent the week fretting over my car (I'm leaving for a long distance car trip tomorrow) and made me learn how to change a tire and fill my tires with air and instructed me on where everything is under the hood. Both of my parents are madly concerned about my electronics (laptop and camera) which are rather expensive toys, as well.
My dad also keeps reminding me of what to watch out for and how to be safe at the beach. He's so worried, it's almost funny.
I love my best friends. We're leaving for a week-long vacation tomorrow. I won't be seen around the interwebs for a while, so try not to miss me.
Yeah, this blog was mostly pointless. I'm feelin' the love, though, and hope you're feelin' it too.
