Taking it Hard is Not the Opposite of Taking it Easy
School is over in little less than a week. Yay! That means I can get back to work on my fanfiction. ;P Man, I am such a dork.

But I've also been taking this Creative Writing class, so I've written a lot for my portfolio. I've come up with at least two very solid stories that I'm going to continue to revise. I also revisited an earlier story that I worked on heavily in this class and... I think it's about ready for publication.

Eep.

Can you consider yourself a writer even if you never get anything published? Or do you need a certain amount of items published before you're a writer? Or does one only need the motivation and a certain number of hours spend writing a week to be a writer? Anyone have any thoughts on this? My take: I've considered myself a writer for the last five years. But besides winning one award in high school, I've never been recognized officially as a writer.

Anyway, I've worked a bit on the second chapter to It is Time, but I haven't even touched Hagaren Country since I wrote that first chapter months and months ago. :P But summer is coming for me very soon and I'll have plenty of time to waste on frivolous fanfiction...

And watch House.

Okay, back to homework. Yes, it is 10 in the morning, but I'm up doing homework. >.

When ou publish something, I want an autographed copy, lol. I'll buy the copy. I just like autographed things ^^; Maybe it makes it unique and special (and worth more on ebay- j/k).

ANYWAYS, I'm totally buying whatever you publish and recommending it :)

Awww you are so sweet. I'd so send you a copy. ^^

But you know it won't be worth anything until I'm dead. ;)

And when YOU become a famous broadway actress, I need you to sign my tickets when I come to see you on opening night. :D

I can give you a backstage tour if you want ;)
I got my first backstage tour at Hairspray and it was sooo special.

diddo. Need copy as well. My feats might not be as grand (Sandwich Lord at local food place, then again, that is pretty awsome. Can you make a house mocha and egg salad sandwich at the same time?) but I would love one anyways. Are you more of an Orson Scott Card writer, or a Susan Jane Gilman?

Anyways, congrats on the book and good luck with the publishing.

Yes! Don't you love summer? I do! House is my favorite show! I can't wait until the next season starts! It stinks, though, because by the time you update I will probably be in band camp! Hey, don't laugh! Band is cool! Stop throwing tomatoes at me! Waaaaaahhh!!!!!
