A Person You Admire.........

My Dad. I love my dad. He cooks, he cleans, and he loves my mom, sister, and I to the ends of the earth. I pray that someday I'll find a man as great as him! ;)
My Mom. She's my mom, my teacher and my guidence counselor in everything. I love her. I admire her because she homeschools us *my sister and I* and has so much patience, even when we are being difficult. I'm so grateful for everything she does for us. ;)

Ireland,
Georgia! *again, because I went there a few years ago and I loved it!!!!*
Disney World, even though I have been there a billion times over, it's still my favorite place ever!!!!! :)
The Florida Keys, because once again, even though I've been there more than a billion times I love it more than anywhere....except Disney. :P
I think that's it......I'd also love to go to Illinois, because that's where all my extended family lives. :)

I'm writing this from my iPod
And it's so awesome!!!! I just bought a BlogWriter app and it is so cool!!!
Happy Valentines Day!!!!!!
First of all, (life is too short not to) wear red shoes is doing a giveaway!!!!! :) Click the button on my side bar!! :) Really pretty stuff, I hope I win! LOL! :)
Love.....
Love it patient, Love is kind,
It does not envy, It does not boast, it is not proud.......
Love never fails.......
That is part of 1 Corinthians 13....I had to memorize all of 1 Corinthinans 13 for a homeschool group project. I love that chapter. It's wonderful. :D
I hope you all have a great Valentines day!!! Even though I am single, and not in love or dating yet, I know that I will be in God's perfect time. I'll wait for when God decides it's time. I'm not in a hurry!! ;) HeeHee. ;)
I was reading a romance last night to get in the mood. That is, after writing romance for about 2 hours, and listening to love songs on my iTunes on the computer!! LOL! Anyway, the romance I read was in the book IronHeart by Victoria Kasten. It was so sweet. I squealed into a pillow because I was up too late reading. SO SWEET!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D It was so happy. The Queen lady, who's also the Chosen One, fell in love with one of her friends and officers in her army. They decided to get married, and now she's expecting a baby in the story! I can't wait to read more!!! LOL! I had to put it down last night because it was getting extremely late and I had to get up early the next morning. ;)
So......Romance.....back on topic!
My favorite romance is Star Wars Romance! ;) The romance in Star Wars is what really got me hooked. I didn't even know that there was even romance in Star Wars at all until I watched ESB. That's when I fell in love with Star Wars.....and Han Solo! ;) LOL! Now I love all things romantic.....I squeal when I watch people fall in love in movies, read about it books, or hear about it in conversations *i spelled it right this time! LOL!* Love is something I look forward to, but I know that right now I am loved. My family and friends love me and most importantly, God loves me. I am Christ's Valentine. I'm going to /hopefully/ go to the Christan store tonight with my dad on the way home from orchestra. I want to look at the purity rings! ;) I'm going to talk to my parents about letting me have one. They said when I turned 16, but I want one before then. :)
Jesus loves you! This I know! For the Bible! Tells me so!!!!

A Guilty Pleasure......
FanFiction. Oh boy, Fanfiction is DEFINTELY my guilty pleasure. I spend WAAAAAAAAY too much time reading those things!!!!! Read my FanFiction page, I added to it. :P Of course I did!! LOL!
Right now I'm reading a Siri-Wan Fic, where Siri didn't die but instead went into a coma and then she came back after ROTS and married Obi-Wan and they watched over Luke in Obi-Wan's little hut on Tatooine together!! SO SWEET!!!! I cried......
I also have found a few great Anakin/Ahsoka FRIENDSHIP stories. No slash. I loved them!!! I'm going to find them again and post them on my FanFic page....so stay tuned. Very sweet. I laughed on most of them!! The others I squealed. ;P LOL!
I'm working on another post with my cousin E, who I am now calling Chibi*Chick, because.....well, it's a long story. Read my Friends and Family page. :P

Creative Characters, and Story Writing
Today I did my "How to Write a Story" program by Lee Roddy with my mom. She reads it and I take notes, and then we discuss it. I, being the crazy author of the household, try and take a LOT of notes. Here are some of them from the newest chapter, on Creating Characters.
Characters Make A Story! Characters and Conflict are at the heart of every story.
Characters exist to create an emotional response in readers through conflicts in the story. At least one character must change, (usually the viewpoint character) by either growing or deteriorating by what happens in the story. The reader must identify with the MC. *main character*
Other Characters: These should be kept to a minimum so that the focus is always on the conflict between teh MC and the adversary. Unless a character is important to the story, omit him/her. *I'm SO bad at this!! I always have more characters than I need!!*
Character Traits: Action reveals character. It has been proven that a person's thinking or beliefs determine how he/she acts. In other words, action follows belief. SO if you understand how your characters think, you will know how they should act. *I think I've got this down....maybe!*
Always keep characters to the minimum number required to tell the story. Don't make it difficult for the reader to keep characters apart or the reader may not continue to read the narrative. At least 2 and usually 3 or more characters are needed. They are:
1. Main Character or Hero/Heroine
2. An Advasary who opposes the MC
3. Other important story people who are necessary for the story's depvelopment. Always keep these to a minimum so the focus is on the MC and his/her struggles to achieve the goal.
I'm really bad at that. My mom gave me an AWESOME suggestion! I reccomend that all my other writer friends try this too. I'm going to create a Character notebook. I'll create characters, and give them personality, sketch them, describe them, and all that fun stuff, but save them until I need them, so I don't overwhelm my story with characters. I'm going to Wal-Mart in a few minutes to go buy a few notebooks to do this!! I'm really excited! I come up with great characters all the time, but never get anywhere with them! :P
My story is coming along, and I think I will post it. I just have to edit a bit, and I'm nervous that it's bad! Alot of you have been writing longer than me, and this is only the second or third story that I've started that might actually amount to something. Thanks for your encouragement in the poll though....except for E. *coughevilcough* ;D
All the notes were from How To Write A Stroy by Lee Roddy program. It was only the first half of the lesson, I'm doing the rest later. ;)
I'll post more later....I wanted to post this writing post now though! :)
Lots of Love,
