And to make sure that this post isn't totally pointless: Some writing excersizes which are quite nice :)
I didn't end up going to Michigan, because apparently all of the beaches there are poisoned with e.coli! So, since we prefer not dying, we (me and my BFF and her mom and little sister and our other BFF) went to this indoor water park instead. Which is epic, except I'm completely exhausted. Plus is started raining the second day we were there, and they had to close the park because of the lightning, so it was like, "OH HEY THE SEXY LIFEGUARD CAME BACK --- oh hey, we're leaving. :|." Buut it was fun.
Let's see, what else is new... oh, my laptop has a new screen, so I can finally do artsy stuff on it. And I just bought Converse. I will post pics once they're decorated. :D

I bought the most hilarious book at Target. It was called Loving Mr. Darcy by Sharon Lathan, and I thought it would be good, because the back cover made it seem so sweet. And Pride and Predjudice is one of my favorite books, and I really didn't want it to end. Soo I bought it. I tried to read it but couldn't get past chapter three because I was laughing so hard at Mr. Darcy's 'brutal techniques'.
There is nothing to this book besides sex. Badly written sex. Sex that makes ME uncomfortable when normally reading that doesn't bother me at all. It was like the author had only read about sex in shitty romance novels and never experienced it (neither have I, but STILL.) Also, the About the Author section said something about Lathan 'living in California, where she attends to her very own Mr. Darcy.' I would hate to be her Mr. Darcy.
So there's my review. Don't read it except for the lulz. :D

I DID read a good book, though, while I was waiting to get picked up at Borders :P I finally got around to reading Death Note: Another Note: The Los Angeles BB Murder Cases. It was... interesting. I may write a review of it later.

I had to skip Things I Like Thursday, cause I couldn't get online much while I was at my friend's house, but it will be back next week for sure :)
Guess that's all! Much love.

Writing Meme + Photos

Writing meme!

What’s the last thing you wrote?

I wrote a couple words in a random WIP that I don't plan on finishing. LOL. No, but the last thing I really wrote was the next theme for the 100 Themes Challenge. [Btw, comments on the last one would be nice plz. You can comment without a google account, you have no excuses. ;) ]

Was it any good?

Bits of it were great. I'm mostly not sure if it's in character or not. Martha is a bit difficult to write. We'll see how it goes.

 

What’s the first thing you ever wrote that you still have?

Oh gosh. Well, the very first things I wrote would have burned in the fire... and the oldest thing I remember writing after the fire was some weird story about a cat. And I don't have the original version of my fairy story either... hm. I guess it would be one of the first versions of Written in Stone.

Write poetry?

I tried. I failed.

Angsty poetry?

Like it. Can't write it.

Favorite genre of writing?

Whether I'm writing it or reading it, I LOVE literary fiction. Historical fiction is great, but I don't know how to write it. YA is good, I've been lucky to find some of the best YA books ever. I love fantasy, but it's hard to find good stuff. I want to write Steampunk, but I don't know how yet :P I guess I don't really have a favorite genre, and I'm still trying to figure out what I like to write.

Most fun character you ever wrote?

It's a tie between Amadre and Valocer, both from my NaNoWriMo novel Written in Stone. Amadre because he was meant to be a bit character and ended up falling in love with my main character and saving all their asses. XD He's constantly flirting with everyone, which is really fun to write.

Valocer... well, I don't know that I can call him fun, because most of the scenes with him made me cry when I wrote them, but I loved writing them all the same. He was one of those characters that completely created himself - I seriously had nothing to do with it XD He writes his own story. He pretty much just popped up on the page and was like, "Hi there. I'm gonna die at the end, but I'm not telling you why." and I'm like "...cool. o_O." It was really fun learning about him as I wrote.

Most annoying character you ever wrote?

That's a difficult one. All my characters tend to be necessary to the plot, so it rarely matters whether they're annoying or not. I guess Erika [from my '08 NaNo Sleep] was pretty horrid to write sometimes.

Best plot you’ve ever created?

I really don't know if I can answer this. I guess the one I"ve stuck with longest is Written in Stone, but I don't know if it's the best... maybe the plot for That Summer, a YA novel(lla) that I abandoned ages ago and hope to re-write soon. I suck ass at summaries, but basically, Amber is forced to stay with her aunt, who she despises, over the summer. (In the re-write it will actually be her and her mom staying with the aunt, but that would be a spoiler. shh.) The aunt has taken in a foster kid named Aidan, who is around Amber's age. He hates Amber immediately, and is a complete mystery to her, and she has to unravel the mysteries surrounding him. Or something like that. My description is lame as hell. 

Coolest plot twist you’ve ever created?

I don't really know. I'm not good at plot twists.

How often do you get writer’s block?

Very often.

How do you fix it?

I don't really know.

Write fan fiction?

Yep, but it rarely gets published.

Ever written romance or angsty teen drama?

Most of my stories have some romance in them. Actually, one of the stories currently running around in my head is the definition of Angsty Teen Drama. LOL.

Do you type or write by hand?

I like to write character profiles by hand a lot of the time, and I tend to carry a notebook with me in case I'm struck with an idea and there's no computer around, but other than that I tend to type. It's easier on my hands.

Do you save everything you write?

I try to, but there are some things I delete.

Do you ever go back to an old idea long after you abandoned it?

I abandoned Written in Stone so many times because I just could not write it. I'm really glad to have finished it and gotten it to a point where I enjoy the story, but I still get random ideas every once in a while. XD

What’s your favorite thing that you’ve written?

Gosh. I guess it would be Written in Stone, but I really don't have a favorite.

What’s everyone else’s favorite thing that you’ve written?

I haven't been showing my writing to anyone lately, to be honest :/ I should really change that. I've been considering putting my two NaNoWriMo novels up on fictionpress, just because I can't really see me trying to publish those. But I'm not sure. Thoughts?

What’s your favorite setting for your characters?

I don't really have a favorite.

What’s one genre you have never written, and probably never will?

While I would love to write Sci-Fi, I don't see it happening. Can't handle reading horror, so no go with that. Mysteries would be great to write, but I'm not smart enough.

How many writing projects are you working on right now?

I'm attempting the 100 Themes Challenge. I don't really have any other projects going right now, just because there are so many floating around in my head that I don't know what to write first, plus I don't know what to write for NaNoWriMo yet

Do you want to write for a living?

That would be amazing.

Have you ever written something for a magazine or newspaper? 

Nope, can't say I have.

Have you ever won an award for your writing?

Nah. XD

Ever written something in script or play format?

Nope. My mom and I meant to try Script Frenzy this year, to try to write a script for the webcomic we want to work on, but it didn't end up happening. Next year?

What are your five favorite words?

vague, raw, fortuitous, angst, snog. 

I know, I am odd.

What character that you’ve written most resembles yourself?

Hm. I guess Tara. She has red hair and freckles and is very small, just like me. I guess the VERY first time she was ever invented, I was a little kid (maybe 8 or 9, idk) and wanted to write a story about a girl (who was exactly like me) who goes to visit the faeries. And now there's Tara.

Where do you get ideas for your other characters?

My characters kinda come pre-packaged with the story. I don't think up a plot and then stick my characters in there, they just fit the plot because they come along with the plot.

Do you ever write based on your dreams?

Yes, actually! I have tons of dreams that inspire stories.

Do you favor happy endings, sad endings, or cliff-hangers?

Happy endings. I only like sad/cliff-hanger endings if it's in a series and going to be resolved in the next book.

Are you concerned with spelling and grammar as you write?

Ever since doing NaNoWriMo, I tend to ignore all spelling and grammar rules until I'm done, THEN go over and edit them all.

Does music help you write?
Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't. During NaNoWriMo it helps a lot - I think I had Slipknot on repeat throughout November 2008, which, looking back, is kinda hilarious.

Quote something you’ve written. The first thing to pop into your mind.

My mind just went blank, thanks a lot.

If you do this, leave a link to it! I wanna see what you all are up to!

So you know how my laptop bit the dust in about two seconds?

My aunt just gave me her old one.

Which is new.

And has Windows Vista.

And a 17 inch screen that needs replacing but whatever.

AND A LOT MORE ROOM ON IT.

It is amazing.

And is not giving me a Blue Screen Of Death.

Also, I am working on a digital painting. Which of course is fanart because I suck, but what the heck. It will be epic. Stay tuned!

Comments are nice. :)

100 Themes Challenge

Firstly:

Secondly:
I posted this once before on my old blog, which I abandoned. But they're still a good resource, so I thought I'd post them again here. I think I'll try them myself, probably using variation 2 (I've been saying that forever now) -- I'm inspired for some angsty/fluffy Doctor Who oneshots....
Here is a list of all the variations of the 100 Themes Challenge that I have saved. If you know of any other variations, or have made some of your own, please send them to me and I'll add them to this list!

In which Brigid finds a lot of memes and decides to put them all in one post.

Yes, I am obsessive.
Stole this from Kerry :)

What's your name? Brigid

What do people call you? My family and some of my oldest friends call me Bri. It's usually just Brigid.

Were you named after anything? A Celtic goddess of fire and creativity/inspiration, I think.

If you were born the opposite sex what would your name be? I guess it would be Rowan, since that's my twin brother's name. LOL

If you could change your name what would you change it to? I don't think I would

Single? Nope

Who are you with/who do you want to be with? Right at this moment, I'm okay with being alone, but I wish my boyfriend was around more often.

Are you in love? I'm not really sure how to tell. But I think so maybe.

Have you ever been in love, if so how many times? Once before this, for sure.

Do you believe in love at first sight? Nope, I believe in lust and infatuation which can develop into love <--- What Kerry said.

Is it possible to be faithful to one person forever? Of course.

Do you want to get married? If I find someone who I know I can be with forever.

Do you want to have kids? I think so. A long time from now.

How many? One.

What sex? I'd prefer a girl

Names? I really love the name Elena. or Gaia.

Do you believe in divorce? I don't know what to think about it.

Do you believe in true love? Absolutely

Do you consider love a mistake? I don't know what you mean by that? I guess there are people out there that are a mistake to fall in love with, but I don't think love in general is ever a bad thing.

Turn ons? Really great smile. The kind that makes you melt. :)

Turn offs? Immaturity and chest/back hair. XD

What is the best thing about the opposite sex? Lots of things.

What is the worst thing about the opposite sex? Most of them never grow up and stop acting like immature 12 year olds.

Are you a virgin? Yes

Do you believe you should be in love to have sex? Yes, I do. But whatever people choose to do is up to them.

Do you smoke? No

Have you tried it? No, and don't plan on it.

Do you drink alcohol? Yeah, but not too often.

Have you tried it? Um, yeah?

Do you pray? No

Go to church? No. Just being in a church makes me really uncomfortable, like everyone there can see that I'm not one of them and don't belong there. LOL

Believe in God? Not really. And even though I'm pagan I wouldn't say I believe in a particular goddess, either.

Sleep with stuffed animals? No lol.

Take walks in the rain? When I'm in the mood

Dance in the rain? Occasionally

Do any sports? Nah

Lie a lot? I try my best not to

Steal? Never

Gamble? Sometimes mom and I play blackjack and bet M&Ms. XD

Have you ever kissed a stranger? Well. Er. I guess he wasn't really a stranger, technically. I don't want to talk about that.

Screamed so much you lost your voice? Well, I did get laryngitis once, and it probably wouldn't have been so bad if I hadn't been at a party at the time and yelling at the top of my lungs anyway. XD

Laughed so much it was painful? All the time

Cried so much it was painful? Yes

Gone skinny dipping? Yeah, years ago

Had a medical emergency? Nope

Run away from home? No

Done something extremely unexpected? Probably?

Slept outside? Several times

Been onstage? Nope

What's your biggest fear? I don't really know what my biggest fear is... being scared, I guess. LOL. And people touching my feet freaks me out. And I have this weird fear that nobody actually likes me and is just pretending to. Not sure why.

What was your weirdest dream? I have so many weird dreams that I can't even keep track of them.

Scariest dream? The scariest one I remember (I don't have scary dreams often) was something involving me being pregnant, and all these little kids popping up and turning into demon kids and trying to tear open my belly with their teeth. It was fucked up.

Do you have a recurring dream? I sometimes have dreams that FEEL like reoccurring dreams, like I know exactly what is going to happen. Deja vu, I guess? I dunno. But the only dream that I remember that I know for SURE was reoccurring was one from when I was around 4 or 5. I was in this daycare (which I think was the daycare I stayed in for a day or two while my dad was in the hospital), but for some reason the daycare was/was on the Death Star, and then the Rebel Alliance blew up the Death Star. I don't remember it ever being a scary dream, though, which is interesting.

What was your best dream? Hmm. Don't know. I love all the dreams I remember, usually.

What is your dream? I want to write books and not be scared of people reading them. And I want to not get any older than 18, but that's obviously not happening.

Do you live in the moment? I live in my head.

What's your greatest strength? I think I'm pretty accepting of most peoples thoughts and feelings and opinions. I'm very liberal.

What's your greatest weakness? My physical strength is pathetic. I really need to exercise.

Do you have a motto you live by? "Hey, girls, you're beautiful. Don't look at those stupid magazines with stick like models. Eat healthy and exercise. That's all. Don't let anyone tell you you're not good enough. You're good enough, you are too good. Love your family with all your heart and listen to it. You are gorgeous, whether you're a size 4 or 14. It doesn't matter what you look like on the outside, as long as you're a good person, as long as you respect others. I know it's been told hundreds of times before, but it's true. Hey, girls, you are beautiful."- Gerard Way


I try to live by it, anyway. I don't always succeed.

Also: "If for one minute you think you're better than a sixteen-year-old girl in a Green Day t-shirt, you are sorely mistaken. Remember the first time you went to a show and saw your favorite band. You wore their shirt and sang every word. You didn't know anything about scene politics, haircuts, or what was cool. All you knew was that this music made you feel different from anyone you shared a locker with. Someone finally understood you. This is what music is about.” - Gerard Way. He inspires me a lot.



If your life were a movie what would it be called? I suck at titles! And no one would make a movie about me.

Do you have any bad habits? Laziness.

Do you have any secrets? Doesn't everyone?

Are you fake? Sometimes I think I'm not as honest with my real life friends as I am with my internet friends, because I'm not scared of my internet friends judging me. But I try to just be me...

What do you want to do in life? Write books and be successful at that.

Are you a daredevil? Ohhh no.

Are you predictable? I don't know?

Do you keep a journal/diary? I fail at it, but yeah.

If you could change one thing about you would you? Yeah. At the moment I feel like I would probably make myself younger. Or prettier. Or better at artistic things. I don't really know.

If you were somebody else would you be friends with yourself? I don't know.

Do you think you're a good person? Without sounding arrogant, yes.

Do you think you're emotionally strong? Not at all.

Do you regret anything? A bit, yeah.

Do you think your life has been good so far? In general, yes it has.

What do you like most about your body? At the moment I really hate all of it.

What do you like least about your body? My legs and my face and everything really..

Are you trust worthy? Yes

Are you gullible? A bit, yeah.

and finally:
1. Post 9 facts about your character-  I chose Dreymeian, one of the main characters from my 2009 NaNoWriMo novel, 'Written in Stone'.
2. Tag 8 other characters.
3. Post their names with the creators avatars.
4. No tag backs :I


1) He is my muse, and thinks he can worm his way into every story or RPG I write. And thinks it's okay for him to have a different girlfriend in each one. XD

2) He was originally pretty much a mix of Drizzt and Jarlaxle (from R.A. Salvatore's The Legend of Drizzt series) because I was/still kinda am a fangirl. He's changed a lot since then, though (gosh, that was years ago. He was one of my first RPG characters. so I was like, twelve. Oh my.)

3) No matter how full-of-himself and confidant he acts, he really hates himself for a lot of the thing's he's done in the past.

4) He can control dreams.

5) He'll do anything to protect Tara -- anything.

6) He's about the closest thing there is to a scientist in his world. His favorite thing to do besides making out with Tara is studying magic and experimenting with it.

7) He wasn't originally supposed to get together with Tara in the very first version of his story, but then, he wasn't a major character back then either. The first character I paired him with was Whisper (called Nightsong back then.) Thank god I changed my mind on that, seeing as she hates his guts.

8) I really hate his name. I originally just took the name Damien and added some extra letters. But of course, it stuck, and now I can't change it. Sigh.

9) The villain of this story was his best friend for most of his life.

I tag:
YOU. :]
