So…I missed the one-year anniversary of this website by a day, I think. Oops. So…happy belated one year =] But aside from that, I can update you all a little bit on my writing.

I have done…very little. Page 232 at the moment on Sava’s second book [but I'm hitting blocks after every scene right now] so each paragraph is reluctant to find its way onto a page. S’okay though. I think I’m almost done, so I’ll just keep plowing.

Of course, English papers that I’m not excited about kill my enthusiasm for writing just as much as lost football games, swimming in school, and being sick. Eh, what can I do? Not much. Just keep plowing.

As they motioned for him to take a seat, he tried to catch a better glimpse of the thin, almost delicate tattoos, before the older man said, “Pontus Savarik.”” —From the 3rd chapter of Pontus Savarik’s book
