The url 'taylyeerose' is soon going to point to a website other than this one. Writingbookowl.blogspot.com should still work for this site. I don't think I'll permanently delete this blog since it archives a portion of my life, but I don't think I'll ever update it again.<br />
<br />
I still write, and I will continue writing . I will still participate in NaNoWriMo. The blog just didn't work out for me. If I ever decided to blog again, I'll probably make a new one and leave this one alone.<br />
<br />
Thanks for having made this blog enjoyable while it lasted, fellow followers!<br />

<br />
I've been having trouble keeping up with my wordcount. I'll neglect it for as couple days and get behind, then catch up, then get behind again, argh! I've almost caught up again, I'm about 200 words from the 18k and some odd words total that's required for today.<br />
<br />
My novel is coming along. Already, I know there's going to be some changes going on in the beginning but it's nice to actually be putting words to paper for once, finally I'm using the world that I've created! It's fun. My character Drae is finally leaving his little villages, earlier than planned because his father is more or less kicking him out (with the expectation that he'll return. That's not gonna happen :p). Now that I think about it, it's probably time to bring in my other POV character, Siron.<br />
<br />
So, so far so good, though I'm lagging behind in wordcount at times.<br />
<br />
I'm about to have to start writing an essay for school. Yay. More writing, for something that <i>isn't </i>my novel. And reading for research. And a memoir to write. Oh my gosh, so much writing!<br />
<br />
11 days down, 19 to go! I can do this! >:DTayLyeehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11397366587281676012noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8206340509091088139.post-39968953149333827002013-11-07T09:35:00.000-06:002013-11-07T09:35:19.063-06:00NaNo Day 7!Oh my God! I've been so busy! School has taken up most of my time and I went two days without writing a word!! But! Last night/this morning I wrote about 3700 words! If I can write about 3k more words today, I'll be caught up.<br />
<br />
And! Well, I decided to kinda start over with my story. Remember how last post I was talking about how the main character was talking to this stranger that had come to his village? Yeah. Well, now I've sorta rewound the story back to the beginning and am now writing from that strangers perspective instead of Drae's. And, it's been more interesting. Like, the words have been pretty much flowing from my fingers. AND! I've even gotten the first idea of what the magic in the world could be like! Where I had no idea before (and in past Nanoing years have pretty much done a vague, generic magic 'system') I now have something a bit less generic! It just came out of nowhere. I was reading the sentence I had just wrote and was like, "If that word was capitalized it could mean something different," and, well, it's kinda awesome.<br />
<br />
So, I currently find myself with about an hour and a half of unexpected free time with nothing to do. Let's see how much I can write! :)<br />
<br />
Good luck everyone!TayLyeehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11397366587281676012noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8206340509091088139.post-39799702073407796432013-11-02T23:30:00.001-05:002013-11-02T23:30:35.397-05:00NaNo Days 1 and 2Whew!<br />
<br />
I made it! Kinda.<br />
<br />
Day one was a bit of a failure. I had to get up early and go to class. I wrote about a hundred words before class and then didn't get home until around seven o'clock. I didn't get to write anything else until right before bed. I only managed 800 words, I was so tired.<br />
<br />
Today, I managed to catch up. I'm currently at 3421 words! I almost gave up when I got to around 2k words and had to motivate myself by promising that I'd play a video when I finished. It worked. ;)<br />
<br />
I'm going into this story with a very, very vague idea, it's pretty much a flying-by-the-seat-of-my-pants thing going on. I have a good idea of the world and some of the characters but not really much about the plot.<br />
<br />
So far, I'm starting out with main character Drae. He's currently seven years old. He's the son of a horse breeder in a small village that doesn't get many travelers, but when they do, Drae is all over it. Asking questions and what not. He wants to get out of the village and go to a city.<br />
<br />
Where I left off in the story, Drae is talking to a stranger that just got to the village. The stranger is showing Drae a map of the continent which he's never seen before and is probably about to show him where's he's been and where he's going.<br />
<br />
Anyway, it's still just the beginning. I've got to get Drae out of the village. I'll probably fast forward a little to where he's older between fourteen and seventeen somewhere.<br />
<br />
So far so good! :)<br />
<br />
I hope everyone else is off to a decent start! I'm having a blast so far! :DTayLyeehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11397366587281676012noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8206340509091088139.post-9263994515704952712013-10-31T22:43:00.000-05:002013-10-31T22:43:49.067-05:00Twas the Night Before NaNoTwas the night before NaNo and all through the night,<br />
Every Wrimo was waiting for the stroke of midnight.<br />
Computer and paper was out and prepared,<br />
For NaNo was, finally, practically there.<br />
<br />
Coffee was brewed, or tea steeped if you wished,<br />
Work was forsaken and school was dismissed,<br />
Sleep would not come on this night of the year,<br />
For NaNo was, finally, practically here.<br />
<br />
Wrimos waited, breath bated, fingers twitching to type,<br />
On this one and only most anticipated of nights.<br />
Time went by slowly like water through stone,<br />
NaNo was so close yet it seemed so remote. <br />
<br />
Browsing the forums of the NaNo website,<br />
Eyes constantly flicking to the clock on the right. <br />
It's 11:59, so close to the start,<br />
NaNo's finally upon us, it will finally start.<br />
<br />
--<br />
<br />
Just something that kinda popped into my head. :) It makes me smile so maybe it'll make some of you all smile.<br />
<br />
Unfortunately, I can't do like the poem says and dismiss school tonight. I've got an early start tomorrow and haven't had any good rest for weeks so I need all I can or I will fall asleep during class. I might, <i>might</i>, be able to get some writing in, in the morning before class but I probably won't get to write anything until the afternoon or evening. (It's a six hour class. Unfortunately. Argh!)<br />
<br />
I hope everyone has a merry, merry NaNo! :DTayLyeehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11397366587281676012noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8206340509091088139.post-2228606516788478432013-10-22T20:58:00.000-05:002013-10-22T20:58:11.592-05:00Say Hello to. . !Only a few more days (omgomgomgomg)!<br />
<br />
And for the first time in history I know (omg, I <i>know!</i>) what one of my human character look like!!<br />
<br />
Now perhaps I haven't said anything about this but I'm usually extremely indecisive when it comes to what my characters look like, particularly the main characters (I don't really have a problem throwing out some random looks for a random character). One day I think their eyes are blue, the next green. Later, hazel. Brown hair? Blonde hair? Black hair? Who knows.<br />
<br />
Consequently, if you were to read most of my stories, you'd notice that there is very vague or no explanation at all for what some character physically look like. You may know what their <i>presence</i> feels like, but not really anything like eye color, hair color or facial structure.<br />
<br />
But, lately, I've become a bit more decent at drawing human faces and while I was doodling some random ones, trying some different nose shapes, I found one of my characters!<br />
<br />
I was doodling some random dude and was like "Hey, this guy looks sorta cool," so I redrew him a bit better and I was just like, "Oh my God this is one of my characters." I knew exactly who it was just all of a sudden, it was pretty cool.<br />
<br />
The character is a relatively new addition, added probably in the last year or two. I couldn't think of any name for him until the last week or two and has before been referred to in my head as simply 'The Mentor.' Now, I'm tentatively calling him, last name Quivyr (Qui as in quiver, vyr as in veer), first name currently unknown.<br />
<br />
This is the prototype sketch of him:<br />
<br />

<br />
Not anything like I would have imagined him to look like. I mean, for one- bald?? Would have never, <i>ever</i> guessed that. Ever. And yet, somehow, this is definitely him.<br />
<br />
It's pretty awesome how this sort of things happens. :)TayLyeehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11397366587281676012noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8206340509091088139.post-12041391487075479092013-10-21T10:38:00.000-05:002013-10-21T10:38:17.101-05:00Ten Days 'TillOh my, it's ten days from Nano. Already.<br />
<br />
I'm going to be working on my four year epic The Chronicles (previously The Chronicles of Siron but now just The Chronicles). So, thankfully I already know some of the characters and where it's going to take place and a vague idea of who the bad guy is and stuff but not really <i>what the plot is</i>. I mean, I don't want to do the whole 'someone's trying to take over the world' thing. I want to do something on a smaller scale. Something where the world <i>isn't</i> at stake. And then the potential bad guy will be the sort of mentor to the main character but I have to figure out why the mentor is so interested in the main character and why he wants to corrupt him. Why be the MC's mentor at all? Why?<br />
<br />
Also, this years Nano is going to be particularly interesting since this is the first year I can be considered as 'busy'. I'm currently a full time college student doing twelve credit hours and on campus all day three days a week. I've always wondered if I would be capable of doing Nano while busy, now I'll finally be able to see. I think I'll make it. I have a decent amount of free time, I"ll just have to read a bit less and watch less tv.<br />
<br />
The only things I'm dissapointed in so far this year is that I won't be able to stay up till midnight on the 31st of October and start writing. I have school on the 1st of November (curses!) so I can't do that. :(<br />
<br />
I hope I get caught up on my planning in the next week. I want to have a pretty good idea of what I'm writing before I start. :)TayLyeehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11397366587281676012noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8206340509091088139.post-1384697895290243222013-10-13T22:55:00.000-05:002013-10-13T23:37:52.332-05:00A Long AbsenceWell, I fell off the face of the earth for awhile.<br />
<br />
It was just, well, it wasn't a very good time for me back then. There was a lot of stuff going on and I was a bit depressed. And then so much time had passed that it seemed awkward to try to blog again. Plus I was never really good at it, always having trouble thinking of what to blog and what not.<br />
<br />
But, NaNoWriMo is upon me (us!) again and I just couldn't stay away any longer. I remembered how much I enjoyed the blog at the times when it didn't feel like an obligation and thought, why not?<br />
<br />
So here I am! NaNoWriMo will be here in eighteen days and I can't wait for it!<br />
<br />
Also, as a wrap up for last years Nano, I barely squeaked by with 50,570 words. I hope to do better this year, but I'm also more busy this year so I'll just have to wait and see.<br />
<br />
(Is anyone else about to burst with anticipation for NaNoWriMo or is it just me?!?!?)<br />
<br />
:D<br />

<br />
Today has been sloooow goooing. I've written 1,222 words so far, giving me a total of 7,735. I'm still hoping to get in maybe 3k today. There's still a few hours left of the day!<br />
<br />
The good part is that I'm almost to the more exciting bits of the story. My character Emily is about to have to fend for herself with little money that will quickly dwindle into nothing.<br />
<br />
But an unexpected character has snuck her way into the story. Emily's maid, Clavre. Clavre was completely unexpected but in the beginning it made sense that a rich person back in the day would have a servant of some sort. So in came Clavre and now she's gotten left with Emily in another country. Except, for Clavre this country is the place of her birth and in her country she is considered free and not a slave to anyone (unless she signed up for it anyway). I'm not really sure what Clavre is going to do. So far she is helping Emily but she could leave in a heartbeat if Emily treats her wrong.<br />
<br />
I had planned for it to just be Emily on her own, but with Clavre I'm not really sure what to do now. perhaps something will happen to her. . . I don't know. Guess I'll find out if I get back to written eh?TayLyeehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11397366587281676012noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8206340509091088139.post-69101126674242211212012-11-09T13:26:00.000-06:002012-11-09T13:29:59.099-06:00Days 1-9 in NaNoLandI'd meant to post everyday this month for NaNo but I ended up moving on the 1st this month and have been neglecting my writing. Plus, since I just moved to this new house the internet didn't get set up until today.<br />
<br />
My mom and dad have decided to try getting back together and see how things go so we've moved into the house dad has rented. So far so good. I've already got most of room brought over and set up except for my books and book cases. Me and my dad are going to build some custom walnut bookcases this weekend to fit around my closet. They're going to be awesome :D And my room is finally a decent size so that I can fit a coffee table and armchair in here. It's really great, and my parents seem to be getting along fine. There hasn't been arguing or anything so far.<br />
<br />
I only got to write about 1400 words at midnight on the 1st. I was writing on some story that was from the POV of a dog but I have since given up on that story. I just wasn't feeling it and had no solid direction to go in.<br />
<br />
The day before yesterday I was thinking about what story I should write on, if I should start on the Chronicles or The Journalist or Sun Touched again, or if I should start writing on one of two ideas I came across while digging through some old documents searching for something new to write. They were some pretty good ideas too, one of which I was kinda excited about but when I opened a fresh new page and it was time to start writing, something completely and utterly different popped into my head.<br />
<br />
It only started out as a couple sentences but as I kept writing the story evolved into something more solid, with a direction. I've since gone with it.<br />
<br />
I've written a total of 3342 words on this story so far and am still intrigued by it. It is unlike anything I've thought of so far. It's about a woman named Emily who marries a man she doesn't love and her husband becomes increasingly resentful of this fact over the years until he abandons her in a foreign country with little money. Emily, who has lived in luxury all her life and believes herself to be the most beautiful and wealthy of women, now has to learn to make a living for herself and ends up dirt poor and living on the streets.<br />
<br />
So far so good I think! I hope this idea turns into a good story. I imagine the world that she comes from similar to Victorian but the country she is left in is something completely different. A different language, a different culture, she'll have to relearn everything.<br />
<br />
And there's going to be magic in here somewhere. Probably not as dominant as it usually is in my stories but I have some ideas for things that happen in later.<br />
<br />
So, I'm painfully behind on my word count, only 4772 so far, but I plan to catch up!! I can do this! :DTayLyeehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11397366587281676012noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8206340509091088139.post-92215925526517337932012-10-03T10:19:00.000-05:002014-06-22T00:04:53.802-05:00It's Coming. . .NaNoWriMo, that is!<br />
<br />
October has come, the site has reset and now it's time to get down to business.<br />
<br />
All year I have been trying to figure out and unravel the plot, characters and world of the Chronicles of Siron. I have been thinking about Sun Touched and have many new, more powerful ideas for it. Another idea just recently came to me, different from the ones I usually get. It's probably in the middle grade or YA area, but I still like the idea. I think it may be too early to start writing it though.<br />
<br />
And so now to start the new outlines and make the new covers and synopsis's and summaries and all those exciting things! I can't wait for NaNo to start but at the same time I feel completely unprepared. I think this may be the hardest year for me as I'm still living in such a small area and have been stressed out lately. But aside from that, I'm still excited! :)<br />
<br />
I've already bought a load of tea and discovered a lovely tea store in the mall called Teavana, which I am in love with now! They've got so many different teas. And the tea pots! They are so beautiful! I think that is where I will go to get my tea set when my new bedroom is ready to be decorated.<br />
<br />
And then. . . Just yesterday I did something crazy. I got my hair colored! I colored it a dark purple and then did a blonde umbre. And the hair cut with it; bangs and long hair. I absolutely love it! I've been wanting to color my hair for a long time now and I've finally done it!TayLyeehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11397366587281676012noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8206340509091088139.post-35837843613491888802012-09-21T10:00:00.000-05:002012-09-21T10:00:10.505-05:00The Two New Puppies!Say hello to Alistaire:<br />

<br />
The two new additions to the doggy family! They are only 11 weeks old but they are nearly as tall as their mother! Grimm is supposed to be my brothers dog but I think he's mine (after all, I'm the one who usually takes care of them :P). I absolutely adore them but sometimes they get on my nerves, they're more than a handful and they are constantly trying to play fight. It doesn't sound like play fighting to me though.<br />
<br />
The three little dogs are still getting used to them. Giggles is the one who is the most friendly with them, he loves to play with them, but even he snaps at them sometimes. Honey B is more or less indifferent and Roxi (my girl :) wants absolutely nothing to do with them. Sometimes she'll just barely tolerate them if the come and lay next to her but that is the extent of her tolerance. She doesn't try to attack them or anything, just avoid them.<br />
<br />
Here's a pic of the three little dogs:<br />

<br />
We have the puppies! To be honest I was starting to think that they might have died because Bugs was starting to spend what seemed to be all day under one of the cars. It'd been a couple weeks since me and my dad checked out the cave and so this morning me and him went to go check it out. I was expecting to see and hear nothing just as before but we were going back into the brush, Bugs in front of Dad and him before me. And then we heard barking! There were three of them, a white one, a black one and a brown patterned one. They were outside the cave and dad got them and all of a sudden, we had puppies!<br />
<br />
We brought them back and showed my brother and mom and they were so excited! So about an hour later my mom urged me to go back to the cave and see if there were any more puppies and so I did, taking Bugs with me. I didn't really think there would be any more but when bugs went into the cave I though there probably would be. She was down there for a minute or two before I began to call for her and she came back out and three more puppies spilled out behind her! I grabbed them all but I had four puppies in my arms (I had brought a puppy with me thinking that if there were any in the cave they might come out if they heard a puppy outside) and after getting a few feet away from the cave I set them down to rearrange them in my arms but the new brown one ran back to the cave and inside before I could catch him. I brought the two new white ones and the brown one I'd brought with me back to the house and set back out to get the remaining one.<br />
<br />
Bugs went down in the cave again and the brown one came out with her but didn't come out far enough and ran back inside once it'd caught sight of me and my dad. But for the moment it was out we could hear another puppy whimpering inside. So there were two left!<br />
<br />
Bugs wouldn't go near the cave after that but I finally thought to get Bugs on a leash and get her over there. She finally went down into the hole and out came the Brown one and I snatched him up. And there was a little white one behind him but this one was even more wary than her brother and she stayed down where I couldn't reach before going around the corner and deeper into the cave. It took two or three times more of Bugs going back into the cave before the white one came out far enough for me to snatch her.<br />
<br />
So we have seven in total. One black one, two brown patterned ones, and four white ones! The black one and three of the white ones are female and the rest are male. They were five weeks old Tuesday and already eat hard food and drink water, though not exclusively.<br />
<br />
I think I'll keep one of the brown ones and maybe a white one if I can manage it. My brother is keeping the male white one and I don't know which one my moms gonna keep. <br />
<br />
Also, last night bugs wasn't around. I believe she went back to the cave so that makes me wonder if there are still puppies in there. . . I guess I'll have to try and find out!<br />
<br />
Here's some pics of Bugs, Ghost (the father), the cave and the puppies!<br />

Bugs with the Pups</div>

Well she started to hang around the shop about 3 years ago. She was a stray and my dad ended up bringing her home when it got really cold that winter and we've had her for about two years now. Anyway about two months ago she got pregnant.<br />
<br />
We're hoping that this White German Shepherd/Chow Chow mix is the father. We call him Ghost. His owners a neighbor a ways down the street but we haven't met him so we don't know what the dogs real name is, but he comes to 'Ghost' just fine now. :)<br />
<br />
So two months later I've been eagerly awaiting the birth of the puppies and she disappears suddenly. And I'm like "Oh, great. She went and found a place outside to have them. Well it was too dark to look for her yesterday so I looked for her today. I didn't find her under the shed or around the shop or near the edges of the corn field. I was starting to get really worried. And then this evening I went out to check around again and she comes trotting from across the street. I was so happy. You could tell that she had given birth cause her stomach was gone, she looked so thin compared to when I last saw her!<br />
<br />
She drank a lot of water and ate some food and then me and my dad followed her hoping to find the puppies. Bugs lead us across the street into a bunch of really tall grass/bamboo like stuff that like 12' high. We pushed our way through the brush after her and she eventually lead us to the other side at the field. At this point we figured she wasn't going to show us where her pups were but then she went down the tall grass a few feet and plunged in again. We followed and ended up at a tunnel that went into the ground. And that's where her pups are!<br />
<br />
But the most unfortunate thing is that we cannot get to the puppies to bring them inside, or even see them. The tunnel's too small to crawl into (though you can probably wiggle in a bit. I'll have to try to get my dad to do that :p and it goes down about two foot before turning a complete turn to the right so it would be impossible to see anything without squirming in there.<br />
<br />
Needless to say I am completely annoyed by this turn of events. I have to wait even <i>longer</i> to see the puppies!<br />
<br />
Now I just gotta figure out when Bugs will probably lead her puppies out into the world. . .<br />
<br />
<br />
I might post later with pics of Bugs and Ghost and the hole.TayLyeehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11397366587281676012noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8206340509091088139.post-83280582478105906902012-06-26T12:11:00.000-05:002012-06-26T12:11:05.736-05:00I'm Back. . .Ah. . . Well. . What do I say?<br />
<br />
It all started with that Kony 2012 post. While I was posting it, I knew I shouldn't post it because I never post about things like that on my blog. But I put it up anyway and found out that there was some shady stuff about the Invisible Children Organization. And then I think I heard something on the news about it too. I decided that I would take the post down and put a quick comment about why in my next post, but I kept putting it off.<br />
<br />
And it was cause I was <b>embarrassed</b>. 'Oh no! I posted something wrong! I'm going to have to delete it!' And so I kept putting it off and kept procrastinating and the longer I was away the less I wanted to post anything. I wanted to put it in the back of my mind and never think about it again.<br />
<br />
But I still wanted to blog. And so finally, today, I'm doing what should've done months ago.<br />
<br />
To everyone who read my blog I apologize for just leaving you hanging without a word. If I ever find myself away from the blog for too long I'll leave a note next time.<br />
<br />
For now, I think I'll start blogging again, probably next week though. And I won't be posting about things like Kony again unless I <b>really</b> know what I'm talking about.TayLyeehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11397366587281676012noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8206340509091088139.post-20631702501334533632012-02-19T16:32:00.002-06:002012-02-19T16:32:46.537-06:00Internets!!Internet!!<br />
<br />
My gosh it's been too long without internet. It felt like. . . like there was just not as much to do as usual. I hope I don't have to deal with that again. Downside is that there's only 1gb of speed so it takes a bit longer for some things to load than I'm used to. And videos? Omg, if it's not in the lowest quality setting I have to wait longer than the length of the video for it to load. But I can browse pretty okay so alls. . .okay.<br />
<br />
In other news: We're halfway moved to the shop. We got all the important things, beds, fridge, other stuff that we use often. We pretty much just have the craft room, garage and other small spaces to move, and the garden dirt, then we're done! I can't wait till then, I hate, hate, <i>hate!</i> moving. And then. . . then we start putting up the walls for the new house in the shop. I can't wait until that either!<br />
<br />
Anyways, while I was away from the internets an amazing thing happened! I read and finished (the finishing part is very important here) four, <i>FOUR</i> books! I read Crank by Ellen Hopkins, finished Shatter Me by Tehereh Mafi, which was awesome, loved it!, and read the last two books of the Hunger Games series! Which was really awesome as well! I can't believe that! It's been so long since I've read and finished any books and it feels so great :D<br />
<br />
And then I found out that the Hunger Games movie comes out next month! I mean, I knew they were making the movie but I thought it would be coming out late this year cause they always seem to talk about the movies like two years before they actually come out. So I will hopefully definitely be seeing that movie in theaters when it is released if I can scrape a bit of money together.<br />
<br />
Also, the no internet thing gave me a jump start on my art as well. I got some stuff in the works for my book which I think I'll post here soon!<br />
<br />
So, till next time!<br />

Mostly not good, but some of it good. First off, me and my family (brother, parents) are moving. We're not moving very far, about 45 minutes away, but we're not moving exactly by choice. Our financial situation isn't good with having to pay a loan on our shop and house and other stuff. Our house is about to foreclose so we are moving to the shop. Might not sound fun but the silver lining is that we are going to build our house within the shop and essentially get everything that we want in a house.<br />
<br />
We're going to be able to garden and maybe even get chickens, and since we're not renting, our four dogs and two birds won't be a problem. The shop is so large we'll be able to have a full sized home inside and build it for relatively low costs since the foundation is already there and though it'll be lots of work it'll be better in the end because we'll only be paying one mortgage and one electricity and water bill. Really, I'm <i>so</i> glad my Dad is a carpenter because he knows all about building houses and stuff. (his dad is a carpenter and so was his grandparents. . . runs in the blood I guess.)<br />
<br />
So, it's not so bad. I'm actually sort of excited. I'm not looking forward to having to pack and move though, I always hate that part.<br />
<br />
Another thing: some of you might remember the post awhile ago about my cat Fritzy. Well, we had to put her down last month, right before new years. It was sad but she was so old (19 years!) and you could tell she was in pain. It was sorta weird the first few nights after we put her down because I always expected to see her sleeping in the living room or meowing for food and once or twice I thought I saw her, but no.<br />
<br />
So, my posting on here will probably be non-existent for a bit longer. I'm hoping that setting up the internet at the shop will be easy but, with the way the internet has been for the last couple months I'm fearing the worst. . .<br />
<br />
I hope 2012 is fairing better for everyone else! Happy belated new year!TayLyeehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11397366587281676012noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8206340509091088139.post-22399232464915142942011-12-28T18:59:00.001-06:002011-12-28T19:12:21.154-06:00Unfinished Bissuness and a Blog AwardWow, it's been awhile. Um, I could come up with with a lot of excuses but what happened was I lost internet and therefore lost inspiration to write and then lost the inspiration to blog and then I procrastinated longer and longer even after I got internet back and therefore was more reluctant to post. So there wasn't really a reason at all. But here I am now.<br />
<br />
It's times like this that I think that I perhaps shouldn't blog. I can't seem to keep up with it even though my life isn't really busy or anything. I do enjoy blogging but I hit these. . . blocks, where I don't blog for awhile.<br />
<br />
But enough of that. I think I should feel you guys in about the end of Nano.<br />
<br />
About halfway through the month, pretty much right after my last post, I changed internet providers and with the new provider my laptop, for some reason, could not get the internet. But the internet was supposed to be better and cheaper so I though I could just live with using my desktop. I was wrong. My writing inspiration went down the drain, I kept pushing off writing because I had already written way over the current goal.<br />
<br />
Long story short I waited until the last three days to start writing again. I wrote twenty thousand words in those three days. It was hard, it was painful but I was not eager to let this be my first year to miss the goal. And I just knew I wouldn't let myself live it down if I didn't get after writing twice that last year. I won by a hair, 50,020.<br />
<br />
I'm so happy I won! I'm so happy that I didn't give up in the end. I'm happy and satisfied with what I accomplished. :)<br />
<br />
And another thing, <i>long</i> overdue. I've been given an award! I was given the same award by two people back in August (I know, I'm horrible *cowers*). Given to me by <span class="post-author vcard"><span class="fn"><a href="http://subcreator.blogspot.com/">Sarah McCabe</a> and <a href="http://claudiea.blogspot.com/">Claudie A.</a> (now at <a href="http://claudiears.wordpress.com/">The Novel Experiment</a>).</span></span><br />
<span class="post-author vcard"><span class="fn"><br /></span></span><br />
<span class="post-author vcard"><span class="fn">Sarah said: </span></span>Taylor Roseberry has the most beautiful header and a great blog. I find myself just gazing at that header though.And Claudie A. said: I
met Taylor during last NaNoWriMo. I can't recall how, but I know we
ended up pushing the last days together. A bond was formed, and it so
happens she has a great blog with a super shiny header. Sarah tagged her
for this already, but she hasn't answered. So there. You have <i>no choice</i>.<br />
<br />
Yes, talk about guilt. I <i>soo</i> should've posted this award before now. I totally slacked on my blogging and currently feel way undeserving of the award and all the wonderful things they had to say about me and the blog. But I'll try to get back on track. <br />
<br />
<span class="post-author vcard"><span class="fn"> </span></span>Anyway, it is the Liebster Blog award!<br />

It has been so <i>busy</i>! I've had like three violin lessons in addition to my usual weekly ones in preparation for recital and then (though this is entirely my own fault) had a Harry Potter marathon which I just finished yesterday.<br />
<br />
Actually, finishing the Harry Potter marathon and watching the last movie in my own home, it's really <i>really</i> hit me that Harry Potter is pretty much over. I'll always be able to read the books and watch the movies but there won't be any <i>new</i> movies or books to look forward to. I'm feeling sorta sad about it, I'd never thought before that I'd feel so sad about Harry Potter ending and yet. . . I'll probably watch the last movie a couple more times over the next few days. I would turn it on right now if I didn't have to wake up early tomorrow.<br />
<br />
So I haven't written anything at all since the 10th, I think. I know, it's horrible! I've gotta catch up! My word count is currently 27,242. I've gotta get writing again!<br />
<br />
And of course I'll be getting the video game Assassins Creed Revelations tomorrow and therefore waste more precious writing time. Why? Why did it have to come out this month? Of <i>all</i> the months of the year, <i>this one?</i><br />
<br />
At least there's a write in this week. Maybe I can make up a decent chunk of wordcount there?<br />
<br />
I hope everyone is writing exciting things and that your muses are being kind to you (probably not to your characters though ;p)!TayLyeehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11397366587281676012noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8206340509091088139.post-37244829112922531722011-11-06T01:26:00.000-05:002011-11-06T01:26:14.523-05:00Nano Day 5So today was great! I went to another write in and wrote about 5k words today. I've got a total of 14,441 words, 10k of them in my story Sun Touched. Things are going pretty awesomely with Sun Touched really. I didn't know how far I'd get with the idea before I got stumped but ideas are popping up like crazy and the general idea of the plot, saving the world from a dying sun, is coming along nicely.<br />
<br />
I'm really glad I switched from the Chronicles to Sun Touched because when I had been writing the Chronicles I was getting stumped and I wasn't even 5k into it yet. With Sun Touched? Bring. It. ON!<br />
<br />
I'll go ahead and explain a little bit more about the characters (because I can).<br />
<br />
Dalon Av Baen is 159 years old and lost his power a century ago when the sun began to die. His outlook on life is predominantly negative and memories haunt him. He's pessimistic, sarcastic, and I like writing him :) I view him as the main character of the story even though his POV time is split with. . .<br />
<br />
Nara Belvene. A sun-touched around 20 years old. She is rather optimistic and this irritates Dalon to no end. She thinks she might be able to save the world and drags Dalon from place to place as she tries to figure out how to do this.<br />
<br />
I like writing about both of them because while Dalon is very negative, Nara is more positive and I like the contrast between their POV's.<br />
<br />
Anyways, I'm getting to a part of the book that will be exciting. I think I may be getting close to the first plot point. They're about to come upon the ruins of a sorcerer city. There will be some rather nasty surprises there, and some good ones too. But for some reason I can't wait to write about the nasty ones. I almost feel bad for my characters, they have such a cruel author. *evil grin*<br />
<br />
My grandparents are coming to visit tomorrow (Sunday) so we'll see how much writing I get in. If I wake up early I might be able to get some writing in but somehow I don't think that will happen. Seeing as I'm writing this at 1 o'clock in the morning. Cause that's how I roll.<br />
<br />
Goodnight everyone! Have happy dreams of making things unbearably difficult for your characters! :DTayLyeehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11397366587281676012noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8206340509091088139.post-31941897763600353892011-11-03T22:59:00.001-05:002011-11-03T22:59:13.200-05:00The First Few DaysAugh! I was wanting to post everyday but I didn't Dx Well, here I am now so. . .<br />
<br />
Day 1, I went to the midnight kickoff. It was a bit subdued, probably cause it was midnight or something. I got in about 2.5k before I left at about 2:30am. And then after sleeping I wrote about 2-2.5k more. So all in all a pretty good day :)<br />
<br />
Except, well, I started out writing The Chronicles of Siron like planned and then I had a sudden plot bunny about something <i>totally</i> different about the sun dying and stuff and now I'm writing that instead because it has a simple but - what I think is a - compelling plot. Compared to The Chronicles which is endlessly complicated and I'm very indecisive on many points of the plot.<br />
<br />
Day 2, I wrote about 2.5k more. (what's with all the 2.5k's?)<br />
<br />
And then today, day 3, I wrote nothing until the write in at a coffee shop near by, where I wrote about 3k and won both 15 minute word sprints by writing more than 700 words both times. That's, like, the most I've ever written in that amount of time. I usually average at about 1k every half hour if I'm really writing, but 700 every <i>15 minutes?</i> That blew my mind.<br />
<br />
Today's write in was fun. We all laughed about milking sheep and dolphin cheese XD It's nice to write with other wrimos in real life. I can't wait to go to more!<br />
<br />
So my total wordcount so far is 9,189, so far so good!<br />
<br />
As for my 'new idea' I'm calling it <b><i>Sun Touched </i></b>and here's the synopsis:<br />
<br />
Dalon Av Baen, former sorcerer, lost his power 98 years ago when the
sun began to die. Now with winters growing long and cold, he has done
his best to blend with the others and forget his former life, waiting
for his death. But when he meets Nara - a sun-touched - and her foolish
ideas about saving the world, he reluctantly begins to have hope.<br />
<br />
<br />
How's everyone else doing? I hope everyone's got good inspiration. Sending writing vibes your way! :DTayLyeehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11397366587281676012noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8206340509091088139.post-28210278612511267992011-10-31T19:40:00.000-05:002011-10-31T20:11:11.107-05:00My Dream Writers DeskLast post I mentioned that me and my dad had built a custom desk for me. Well, it's finally finished.<br />
<br />
First let's take a look at the desk I had before:<br />
<br />
<a href="http://s942.photobucket.com/albums/ad268/Red_Angel_/?action=view&current=BadDay.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://i942.photobucket.com/albums/ad268/Red_Angel_/BadDay.png" /></a><br />
<br />
This picture was taken before my desktop was completed so my 27'' monitor isn't up there with a keyboard and mouse. Now imagine how little space there was up there :-p<br />
<br />
Building my new desk took a <i>lot</i> of hard work. It all started in August. My birthday was coming up and I decided that I wanted a desk. So I got drawing my dream desk, looked at some pics online of some desk styles that I might like and stuff. There wasn't much to see really. The only things I found were the average plain jane/john desks that can be bought from staples or ikea. But I eventually found this:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnn-2JCNxXi7h_o5XgEW36BreHMYwcDrncI8rIDf7SpaVPPiM3kwvR5ZjcgWeDo0zWI2wnpJ8v25AWM1rEW2Xxj10Gr5_B73Vh7wMfj1Dro5cb8n2_9ERVG81XkMmvxc8myGSHZMxOLNM/s1600/charles_dickens_desk.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="258" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnn-2JCNxXi7h_o5XgEW36BreHMYwcDrncI8rIDf7SpaVPPiM3kwvR5ZjcgWeDo0zWI2wnpJ8v25AWM1rEW2Xxj10Gr5_B73Vh7wMfj1Dro5cb8n2_9ERVG81XkMmvxc8myGSHZMxOLNM/s320/charles_dickens_desk.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
That's a picture of Charles Dickens desk. I couldn't really make my desk look just like it, what with having a computer and all and plus it's not much bigger than the desk I already had. But I really liked the way the top was done with distressed wood and framed out. And the color.this was enough to get my creativity going.<br />
<br />
So with that to go on I began to draw. I knew I wanted a space for my desktop and tower, speakers, some books and still have plenty of room for papers and my laptop and drawing tablet and anything else I might need.<br />
<br />
This is what I drew:<br />

<br />
I know it looks nothing like the Charles Dickens desk but this is what I needed.<br />
<br />
Anyways I didn't get my desk on my birthday, things were too busy and then next month we were preparing for vacation so early this month my dad taught me how to use cabinet vision to draw up my cabinet and then the next day we went up and started building it.<br />
<br />

I don't know about you guys but when I see pieces of wood on the floor like that I just can't see a cabinet. But we started to put them together and got this:<br />

<br />
Anyway, that was day one. The next day we built the face frames and and drawers and long(er) story short this is what happened:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieqMrZMDUiEGO-Ly5QNUNX53gvkPnVYaXE0euUuKnufPgYyBvFAZxrK7sUkYDv9FkPTFsTSP5qfGUCXBr3fzVJ9cyYUjttRaNutNL_QTRf3jMdpV98Tn3_cpyvNKabbUDPjUyuqBgxBdE/s1600/F.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieqMrZMDUiEGO-Ly5QNUNX53gvkPnVYaXE0euUuKnufPgYyBvFAZxrK7sUkYDv9FkPTFsTSP5qfGUCXBr3fzVJ9cyYUjttRaNutNL_QTRf3jMdpV98Tn3_cpyvNKabbUDPjUyuqBgxBdE/s320/F.JPG" width="240" /></a></div>
<br />
It actually took 3 days to build because even after we got it home we still had to touch up the counter top and stuff.<br />
<br />
And then the stain took like 2 <i>weeks</i> to choose and then apply. It was horrid having to do all that work and more than once I wanted to rush it. There was so much sanding and staining and with the cabinet so massive on top of it all it took for<i>ever</i>!<br />
<br />
But we eventually finished it (yesterday) and here's what it looks like!<br />
<br />

So there it is! My dream desk from fantasy to reality. I can't wait to really start using it come next month during Nano.<br />
<br />
And speaking of Nano, I'm going to a Nano kickoff party tonight. It'll be the first write in I've ever gone to so we'll see how it goes :)TayLyeehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11397366587281676012noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8206340509091088139.post-86774037618515687272011-10-27T18:11:00.000-05:002011-10-27T22:23:38.932-05:00Four Days Till NaNo!<a href="http://www.nanowrimo.org/">NaNoWriMo</a> is almost here!! Four more days! I can't wait :D<br />
<br />
Actually, I still don't have a scene by scene outline yet, I have to do that in the next few days, and some of the parts of my plot are still fuzzy but I still can't wait. And guess what? I'm going to have a new desk!<br />
<br />
I don't think I've ever mentioned this but my Dad is a carpenter and owns a cabinet shop so me and him went and built me a HUGE desk. It's got paper trays and a book shelf and a place for my desktop and room for my laptop to sit up there <i>and</i> spread papers everywhere. It's so awesome. Me and my mom are staining it right now and it should be done before the first of November. I can't wait! Right now the counter top, knee space, drawers, adjustable shelves, and the inside of all the cabinets are stained so there isn't too much to do. I'll post pictures when it's done :)<br />
<br />
And for the first time, I will have distractions during Nano. It's a scary thing I haven't really had to deal with before. I've got violin and guitar lessons and then have to keep up with practicing them every day. The video game Assassins Creed Revelations is coming out next month on the 17th and I <i>know</i> I'm going to loose 3-7 days until I win it. And then, of course, there's Thanksgiving. And I know there's something else I'm forgetting but I can't seem to remember. . .<br />
<br />
I'm also thinking of attending write-ins for the first time. I'm thinking of going to the midnight kick off party to start with but I'm not sure. . .<br />
<br />
Well, can't wait! I hope this year will be just as fun as the last two! :DTayLyeehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11397366587281676012noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8206340509091088139.post-78930352377220676872011-10-11T19:06:00.000-05:002011-10-11T19:07:32.794-05:00The Harry Potter Theme ParkSorry for the long silence. Things got really busy leading up to leaving for vacation and it slipped my mind to post something before I left. And then, believe it or not, there was no internet at where I was staying so I couldn't post anything while there. And then when I got back, trying to get back into the swing of things I got sick and am just now coming out of it. Ugh. So. About the vacation.<br />
<br />
It was fun. Spent like all my time at Universal. The Harry Potter park was awesome! The castle looks pretty much just like in the movie and Hogsmeade was great.<br />

The butterbeer was pretty good. The frozen was better cause it lasted longer and wasn't quite as sweet as the cold stuff, which was good but after a few sips was sickening cause it was so sweet. They had chocolate frogs and sherbert lemons and all sorts of replicas of stuff like the time turner and deathly hallows symbol necklaces. It was awesome! The three broom sticks and hogs head was cool, I ate there and the food was good. they're both like the same place really. It's just that the Hog's Head side has a sort of bar area.<br />

I've been busy with my music stuff and planning vacation next month and yesterday was my birthday so I didn't get to any writing then and then, believe it or not, yesterday evening the family cat, who is 19 years old, looked like she was dying. She can't really stand or walk or anything. She's still alive but still can't really move. It's so sad. She doesn't seem to be in any pain or anything but still. . .<br />
<br />
Anyway, I'm sorta glad this didn't happen while I was out on vacation next month when she would've been alone.<br />
<br />
Sorry to make this a sad post, so I'll leave that alone now.<br />
<br />
So, I won't win Nano, and haven't been keeping up with my ROW80 goals the last couple of weeks. That's pretty much all I can say on that.<br />
<br />
As for vacation next month, I can't wait! It'll be fun and probably good for me; I can't believe how boring it is around here where I live.<br />
