AW Blogchain!

Published by Snowflake under Blogchain

Colbymarshall really made it easy for me in this blogchain blogging about Twilight, as I’ve just finished reading the book.
I love Vampire Novels.
I’ve read tons of Christine Feehan books about Vampires falling in love with their true mate and overcoming all obstacles and the manly machos and the strength and the darkness and the brooding that already Angel displayed so well on screen.
So, it was a logic thing for me to do, when I finally picked up Twilight a week ago.
Now, let’s first talk about the writing, shall we?
Someone explain me how this got published. How this got looked at by an editor and how this got such a bloody advance and a three book deal?
How?
Her writing is full of telling. Showing’s not her favourite thing to do.
And then there’s adverbs. And adverbs and adverbs and then there’s some more adverbs.
And still I loved it.
The story was awesome.
Bella a girl written in a way that every woman can relate (younger ones of course).
And Edward so beautiful and dark and brooding.
I’ve got me the rest of the books. Probably her writing will have improved and I will hopefully have a blost with those too.

Now putting this aside, I also want to answer the question of colbymarshall, what book, tv or movie success suprised me.

Well, Married with Children. What the hell is funny about THAT?

The cat - Not such a home-ish thing!

Published by Snowflake under NaBloPoMo, Pets

The little cat, that the pictures showed in one of the previous posts got really ill. He wouldn’t eat nor drink and it all got way worse. He now is at the vet’s office, getting lots of care. So, we cannot have him. Unfortunately. We don’t even know if he’ll survive. So, we’ll have to choose another cat.
I’m sad.

Home (25) Project Update

Published by Snowflake under NaBloPoMo

Let me introduce to you my newest project that I’m working on at the moment. Even though I’m stuck a little.

I don’t even know if this is a short story, or a long story or no story whatsoever. I just know I’ve been tossing this idea around and I’ve been working on it and I just don’t seem to get the plot.

The basic theory of the story is, that people that talk to somebody that doesn’t exist (ie schizophrenics etc.) actually talk to somebody that should have existed and that should be here. Fate has foreseen for that person to be around, death somehow got the upper hand though and won the fight.

So, we got this diagnosed schizophrenic guy, he lived his life with a wife that does not exist. When she dies his psychiatrist thinks he’s about to get better, because killing of your imaginary friends is a sign that you don’t need them anymore and are able to live your life without them and actually get healthy again. Problem is because of the loss he gets depressed, suicidal and tries to kill himself. So he gets into one of those hospitals.

Psychiatrist looks at him, listens to his story, starts to investigate and finds out that a girl actually was born on the day his wife was born and actually had the name of his wife and that all the rest of the story is correct. Except for the girl died when she was around 8 years old in bizarre ways.

And here I’m stuck.. and I’ve just set up the plot, nothing even happened yet, so that’s a really stupid part to be stuck.. I don’t know if I’m supposed to go fantasy and make people-ish things out of death and fate or go more realistic and have it be all psychological… I’m stuck, it bugs me..
