June 14th, 2018

Hey everyone! Today, I had to get re-tested for allergies and I'm excited to know that ALL of my food allergies have kicked the bucket! I'm so happy~! Of course, I have to reintroduce the foods back into my diet slowly, or it'll cause problems for me. Plus, I still have to get allergy shots, so...boo. I hate needles! Just the thought of them makes me sick...

Moving on! In my Game Design class, we had fun creating a first person shooter game. I have also learned that Vertigo, contrary to what a friend of mine told me, is not the fear of heights, but getting sick from head movements. Acrophobia is the fear of heights; I have this bad. Being up high makes me sick and feel very. very weak. It's terrible--I'm amazed I can ride roller costars (though not The Superman; try to get me on that ride and I will run away).

My novels are coming along nicely! I hope to have another book out by the end of next month, if I focus and work hard! Let's see which book gets done first~! I'll post the updated word counts at the bottom of the post. Guess which one will be done first and let me know what y'all think in the comments~! I'll also post an intended word count for each work, though be warned that these are subjected to change!

The Mayfly is a full-length novel based almost entirely around a dream I had a few years back (that dream is still making me go what the heck did I just dream?). The House at the End of the Street is a collection of short stories around 100 words each (maybe, haven't really decided yet). The Prince and the Unicorn is a fairy tale-like novella I'm dying to  get out! The theme is something that is overlooked constantly by books and other works dealing with love: Love makes people do good deeds as well as cruel deeds for the people they care about. Everything in the story reflects the theme; you have been warned.

That's all for now! Stay determined and remember--Laughter is the best medicine!

The Hunt For Ruin word count: 8,417
Intended word count: over 50,000

The Mayfly word count: 875
Intended word count: 10,000

The House at the End of the Street word count: 682
Intended word count: 5,000

The Prince and the Unicorn word count: 901
Intended word count: 15,000

Howdy y'all! I'm back after almost 6 months of silence! Sorry about that - Life got in the way and for a while I wasn't up to do...
