No, I'm not dead

I've just been sick and on vacation and busy. So, now that I'm back on here I guess I should tell everyone that Sarah's paragraph won. I guess that I should also tell everyone that I don't think we'll be doing the story for a while. There were a couple of kinks in how we were writing it (etc.) and I think it'll be healthier for our friendship if we give the story a break. Now this doesn't mean I'm going to stop posting stories by any means. Every now and then I'll post something, right now I'm focused on a story that I hope will turn out well. (It's based on one of my favorite fairy tales.) Well, I hope that's a sufficiant up-date. (Oh yeah, I saw Harry Potter 4! It was fantastic!) Wait, I can't forget, HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Dang. I liked your paragraph better- though Sarah did do a very good job (don't tell her what I said- does she read your site?). I'm glad your posting stories too- it's refreshing to read someone else's while they're in work. It's a lot different from reading a published book- particularly becouse I know you.

No she doesn't read my blog. I actually will post a story I'm doing for a contest. The story is something COMPLETELY different from stuff I've done before so I'm excited to see how it turns out. I just hope it doesn't sound too much like Holes. I don't have a title for it (I'm horrible at picking out titles) so I'll need your help once I post it. I'm going to work on it a bunch tonight so (hopefully) it'll be done by Sunday.

Oh yeah, Sarah wants us too take turns writing instead of voting but that could turn out just as bad because ideas wouldn't mesh very well. Oh, I don't know any more! That's why I'm tring to focus on stuff that I have 100% control over, I love my ideas too much! (That sounds really self-centered and self-rightous. I don't mean it that way!)

One more thing, feel free to critize anything. Heaven knows I critize your stuff enough. (Sorry about that.)

It's fine that you correct my stuff- I actually like it (though I may sound as though I'm annoyed with you about it sometimes, I really don't mind).
I'm writing a story for a contest and I'll put it on if it makes it up in the top. It's a little lame (I got help from a three year old and he picked the names so it's Sir Jayden and Madam Katie-Bug so...)
I understand about you liking your ideas a lot- I practically jump up and down about mine and want to make Cristianna stop writing when she totally destroys mine and puts in something really dumb.
Ah well...
