STATUS: BOOKS!!!


I know my status may make me sound like a nerd...but whatever!!! You know how you sometimes find a really good book online and you REALLY want to buy it??? And then you have to wait until you order it and finally comes to your house. That just happened to me. I love Gossip Girl (which just "ended" and turned into a new series) but I haveb;t been to borders in a while so I don't have the first or second book. Anyway, the books I want now until I go to Borders or Barnes and Nobles is Good Girls and Play Me.
Has it ever happened to you that you "just wanna read the first book in the series" and then want to read all ten of them??? Then you read another good series and it gets really confusing with when the next book will come out, how many books you need until you read all in the series, the titles...It's really hard!
I now limited myself to only Gossip Girl, The Clique and not-series books. I'm not reading the Private books, or the A-List, or the It Girl.
Another VERY annoying thing that bothers me is writing. I promised myself I would never write after I watched a good movie that I liked. You have an idea in mind...then you close the journal because you are tired. The next morning you watch a really good movie and you start adding in more conflicts that don't make sence to what you wrote the night before. After a while, you have to start over because that bookk will be a mess...trust me.
Then of course there is the character problem! You had a dream of a pretty girl with blond hair. There's you character. The next night you have a dream of five pretty girls...your other characters! But you don't need anymore eventually so people starts switching around hair colors and getting makeover and meeting a bunch of pointless people.
I hate those lucky people that hate to read and the only thing the ever write (when they are forced to write, of course, they would never do that on their own) is something like "Hi, i said. "Hello, she said." and then they go to sleep. I wish I were like that. But I'm not so I'll have to get used to to it...

you know why some books come in parts? to make more money, of course.

and you should continue writing. the more you write the more easily you can mold your story and flow the ideas. it's mostly a matter of practice. you get better with time and before you know it people will ask for your autographed copies.
