Instructions: Always repost with the rules, answer the 11 random questions left for you, and leave 11 more for the people you tag!
Tagged by: @illicreatxm
This got long so Iām going to stick it under a read more ^^
1. If you could write any canon character, which would it be and why?
Hm. Iām not sure. I have roleplayed a couple of canons before, but I find it harder to keep the muse for them. I could probably do Elsa okay, I could jump between her locked in the castle personality and her open, welcoming character post-film, which might help, but the inconsistencies in her Over-powered Powers annoy me, so I think Iād add a few limitations in there.
2. Favourite Disney movie?
Maybe Aladdin because Robin Williams is of course amazing and so perfect in that role~ Ohh but thereās also Atlantis.. And Dumbo! Aw no... Letās just call this my top three before I get carried away >w>
3. Least favourite MCU character?
I haven't seen the more recent ones, so, I can't take into account characters like Thanos or Dr. Strange or, whoever else they've been bringing in. So out of what I've seen, I'd have to go with Bruce Banner/The Hulk.
It seemed in the earlier films that they didn't give much attention to Banner. They were all over using the Hulk to make bits interesting, but Bruce was boiled down to "quiet smart guy who CaN TuRN inTo THE HULK" so, yeah.
And the hulk himself later did like a 180Ā° change for me. In his stand-alone film I think Hulk says like 3 words, maximum. Then rarely talks in his appearances in the other avengers brand films. Cool. We had "Puny God" and that was a-okay. One short, memorable, funny quote seems perfect.
But then what was all that when Whedon got his hands on it? (I mean don't get me started on that, I am really reigning myself back here but) They start off needing ways to calm Hulk down enough to get him back inside and give control back to Bruce, fair enough. But then like... He winds up not letting go of Bruce's body even though he isn't enraged anyway? And suddenly he's emotional enough and smart enough to take- what was it a plane? And seperate himself off from everyone and look all solemnly at Natasha before he does it or something?
Obviously my memory of it isn't great, honestly I stopped paying attention after Natasha's "I'm a monster- not because I was raised in a heartless environment full of violence and raised to literally kill people, that bit's whatever- but because they took away my fertility and now I can't have babies." speech. And that's the last MCU film I watched. I didn't want anything to do with them after seeing what Joss Whedon did with the characters and the overarching plotline and... Everything. x') So I might have gotten some of the hulk stuff wrong.
(I did watch Deadpool though, that I enjoyed~)
4. If you had to create any new character, what occupation would they have?
Ooo good question.
I think something proactive, where they could seek other characters out, but.. I'd kinda like a bad guy~ Someone who lies so much for their job, they have a dual personality to work with. They can be your smiling friendly neighbour, wishing you well on your holiday, then turn around and grit his teeth because this poses a major problem for his mission, and he can't lose his target, so now he has to follow, but he can't do that as your happy neighbour, no, you know he isn't going on holiday, certainly not today, not on your flight, not to the same ski lodge you're going to. No, he has to make a new cover- maybe say his neice phoned him with a family emergency and he'll be leaving to go be with her a while. Then shed this identity, find out where his target is going, quickly pose as some other tourist who blends into the background and get to the lodge first, all the while planning out some plausible skiing accident he can set up.
Wow that got more detailed than I expected x'D I think I just reinvented hitman, whoops.
5. Favourite sport?
[Image ID: Kiki from Kikiās Delivery Service, laughing hysterically.]
My biggest concern when I'm on my feet is not falling over so, obviously sports aren't really my deal. x')
I used to swim a lot when I was a kid, I loved that, but, don't do it now.
And I'm not really into watching sports either tbh. Most of it seems over-hyped. Most football teams (real football, it is not soccer. The hint is in actual football, the ball, is hit, with your feet. Picking it up and running with it and then sometimes kicking it does not qualify as football, come on USA. Your thing is closer to Rugby than Football.)
Anyway most teams aren't much better or worse than any other if you actually watch objectively, which makes it look like they both suck because they're too well matched to score goals more than once in a blue moon.
Rugby I don't really understand the appeal of either. Scrums are weird and it wouldn't be entirely bizarre to see a guy walking away from the game with blood down his face and an ear in his hand. You'd almost expect him to stick the ear on ice and be back in a few minutes with his bandages on.
Really the only sports than interest me are the gymnastic types. Ice skating is good for a while but it can start getting dull if you don't have people willing to break the mould a bit. (Which is why I absolutely love the free skate bit. Where they aren't being scored and they just do whatever the hell they want, omg I live for that)
Floor routines are awesome, the pommel horse and rings are usually a little samey for me but the one with those two bars at different heights, that's fun to watch~ there's a little more variety there.
(And I don't wanna hear anyone in the replies saying these aren't sports, every example there including figure skating is a separate event in the Olympics, so. There.)
6. Whatās your dream car?
I donāt really have one. At this point in my life I donāt actually have the option to learn to drive so I havenāt really thought about it. My only criteria is, it has to have a nice face. x)
Since I was tiny I have always seen cars as faces. The headlights would be eyes, and usually the number plate would be the mouth, but some cars have other stuff like a grill that might be the mouth instead. So like...
This would be a grumpy car with a pig-like nose and frown.. Actually those look like jowels either side of the mouth part. It looks kind of like a bulldog. Xā)
And this would be a happy car. That black part around the number plate it wide and smile-shaped, and the headlights- rounded on top and straighter on the bottom, like the little creases we get when we scrunch up our eyes laughing~
This car looks like someone just said something really stupid to it, and it is not impressed, and lets the silence hang not knowing what to say.
Happy car
Terminator car
Happy car but in a mean way.. Like itās on its way to cause mayhem or poking fun at someone. You get the general idea -w-
7. A movie that you think should have a sequel?
Hmm... this is a toughie.
8. A movie sequel that you think should be deleted from existence?
I donāt remember which number it was or even the title, but the Shrek sequel where Shrek like, hates having kids so much he makes a deal to change time? And Fiona winds up as like a vicious warrior leader because no-one ever saved her from the tower, and rumplestiltskin is in it? What even was that...
9. Design your dream outfit using this game ?
I wouldnāt say this really is my dream outfit, but from the options on offer~
(also discounting the enormous hair bun >w>;)
10. Favourite fairytale?
Iām not sure if this actually counts as a fairytale, but I love the story of the jolly roger. That classic skull and crossbones flag has a story behind it that a lot of people donāt know.
In a nutshell, a man (i guess a pirate) develops an intense crush on a young woman, who is about to get married. But just before her wedding, she dies. She is buried, but the man doesnāt take death for an answer. He digs her up and has sex with her body. When heās done, a disembodied voice speaks to him, telling him that he has basically impregnated this corpse, and to come back in nine months.
For some reason, he does. He digs up the woman again. And sat below her pelvis is a small skull and two bones. The disembodied voice tells him to take these bones with him on his ventures, and they will bring him luck.
Itās bizarre, and kinda gross, and.. I dunno if being rewarded for sexually desicrating a corpse is the best moral? xā) But I was amazed when I heard this story, because Iād had no idea there was this whole tale behind the flag~ and I still love that it exists~
11. Create an avatar of your favourite muse using this creator? ?
First, itās so cruel to ask me to pick my favourite child how dare you >w> haha
I went with Chester though because heās the one Iām usually most connected to.
I canāt think of anyone I want to tag right now (at least not anyone who hasnāt probably done this already), but Iāll put the new 11 questions for anyone who does feel like doing this~ :) __
1. Whatās one thread/plot you really want to do that you havenāt had chance to yet?
2. What is the reason for, or meaning behind, your blog icon?
3. Do you have any pets? Tell us a bit about them!
4. What is one thing you would never want to change about your appearance?
5. There is an ultra secret spy group, and youāve just uncovered their existence. Now they say that you must either work for them, or theyāll find a permanent way to keep you quiet. What kind of work would you offer to do for them?
6. If you met your muse in real life, how do you think the two of you would get along? (multi-muse blogs, pick one of your muses at random.)
7. You have been given a huge budget to remake one film in your own vision. You can change anything, add anything, choose the cast, you have no limits. What would you do?
8. What is one skill you wish you could automatically master?
9. A genie offers you a deal. An unlimited lifelong supply of one food of your choice... But, you have to sacrifice your ability to chew. Does any food still tempt you?
10. What do you think is the funniest animal?
11. Share one memory you have that makes you happy to think about~
#literally anyone can do this#and you can tag me in it too if you want#even if we've never interacted#I love reading posts like these#x)#ooc#long post#I loved the game questions on this btw!#I've never seen anyone include something like that before#it was fun!#illicreatxm

The First Blog, Wherein I Come Out As Queer & Dunno How Long Titles On Tumblr Should Be: I Had a Weird Week
Hi, Iām Michael Bennett producer of The (Bunny) Buni Perspective! and I had a bad week. Kinda of an amazing week. And here I am, talking about things Iām now no longer embarrassed to disclose.
Iām going to talk about the week in sections as they come to me, so this might jump around a little, but it ends with Bunny Bennett and a promise to see you tomorrow.
Warning frank discussion of sex, pot and LSD use and cursing you fucking dumbshits. I promise not to be too gross.
I Joined, Figured Out, and Then Deleted Grindr, In One Single Day.
Pause for applause.
Grinder is not for highly specific queers. The title queer is feeling like the correctt word for me, as it also means weird. . So Iām polly, so far Iām deeply in love with two girls. Iāll be writing more about Heather and Meghan in the next few blogs. Promise girls.
Iām turned on by femininity. Not just sexually, feminine things were the bane of my childhood and now they draw me in. To make this simple my ideal girl, in pop culture for many, many reasons, is some variation of:
Ā Ā ...35 and inserting gifs that make you blush...shame....
The thing is, I have for years been drawn to femboys and just shoved the feeling down. I can see the first guy I wanted to ask on a date vividly in my mind. I have a really hard time explaining it, but if Pearl were a boy, heād be my dream guy.Ā
Iām also polly, so on the Internet Iām aĀ āfaggot cuckā
I promise tomorrow I will discuss the polly aspect of my sexuality in ore detail, for now just know Iām just complicated.Ā
Ok so, how do I convay any of that on Grindr? I canāt. I want to have a conversation. You cannot say that because it startsĀ āheyā then itās just dick pics or boring, predictable bullshit.
I had a big realization. Iām a fucking jerk. Iāve been chatting online for decades and have treated the majority as badly as these guys treated me. Not that I sent dick pics, but if they didnāt do what I wanted I wasnāt nice or polite. Often I wouldnāt read their info well. I dunno. I felt pretty bad being ignored and hit on cause apparently Iām adorable?
...fat piece of shit.
The REALLY cute girls on grindr were a minimum 100 miles away. None want to do a long distant thing, which is really what I want right now. And frankly the guys I want to meet are girls. And I know Iām queer because the other day I said,Ā āThat cock is adorableā and that is not what a straight man says.Ā
I feel a lot better saying all that. Letās talk about my favorite game I need to quit.
I Can Spot A Catfish A Mile Away After Two Full Days Of Talking Out Loud
I was playing League and I out of no where got a friend request. I take all of these, usually remembering them from a recent game. Not this time. First thingĀ āsheā said wasĀ āI always get call a catfishā DOT DOT DOT
This āgirlā played well, we chatted in game,Ā āsheā was REALLY flirty and I boughtĀ āherā many skins in game, maybe 50$ worth? Canāt remember for my embarrassment's sake. I begged this person to talk to me face to face on skype and they made it into a fight every time. So I cut it off.
This happened to me recently. This person refused to talk to me while we played games (me out loud into my headset, and āsheā replying in chat). Every hour I begged this person to talk to me in anyway. At first they told me they only spoke Japanese andĀ āsheā was embarrassed about the language,Ā āsheā understood me too well for that, think I literally said,Ā āWhat are you Chewbacca?ā
I basically just talked. They replied and were REALLY needy. I mentioned skins at last and they changed how they talked a lot but then suddenly, this person couldnāt talked to me because of childhood tongue biting induced tongue paralysis. Also their name was Soka Hui? Apparently?
They told me their family was massacred. Like RECENTLY. So I looked it up:
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/the-wolf-family-murders-north-dakotas-most-brutal_us_57fbe48ae4b0b665ad818798
Thatās scary tho if that person recorded me.
I Fell in Love With a Guy
I did not want to. I could hear the mocking voices of my brothers from my childhood, the ghosts of my high school, the wordĀ āfaggotā as anything but gross, not something that turned me on. Not something I whispered to a guy, begging me to...he didnāt love me. He sounded really fucking pretty when he said I love you. He said my name so beautifully the echo of it makes me cry as I write this now.Ā
I would have called him a fucking faggot in 1997 and been angry. Might have gotten violent.
Now I wish Dexter would just say anything, perched in my lap and...
Well itās stupid to dwell on things. I learned a lesson. The lesson here isĀ āyou canāt win, but always try.āĀ
Hereās why: I did everything right, this is how Meghan and I began.Ā Dexter and I have talked on and off for months. For about 8...maybe a year. Dexter was my dirty little secret.Ā
He called me and moaned and we...you know whatever, but always behind Heatherās back (she knows now). I hated to admit that guy was really...
Well he got a hold of me at the beginning of the week.
He told me that he wanted me to make love to him, sayĀ āI love youā to me on his boyfriendās bed. I took this too mean he wanted me to be in love so...we talked.Ā
We talked for an hour and I was so in love. He was interesting and funny. He had comedy bits memorized. He loves Star Wars.I wanted to keep talking. I thought weād at lest text later.
I wanted to Love Star Wars with him. I wanted to meet him and do whatever he wanted. He cut off the call...I should have known an hour was kind of short compared to girls I had talked to in the past.
I didnāt hear from him for 3 days.
I had all this confused love in me. I barfed it all up. He was masturbating. Trying to get me to talk about sex and I was stammering and nervous and near crying. I told he was my first guy...the guy I was in love with, for real and he cut me off. There was a really hard to describe, painful, awkward silence.Ā
I flashed back to all the folder of evidence I had that he loved me, the saw the mountain of facts that said he was just getting off to me using him. Or...something. We havenāt spoken since.
I told himĀ āI have a lot of cosplay ideasā and he laughed.
He said he had to go and I said ok. He saidĀ āTalk to y-ā but I hung up and threw the phone. Cried. Last my game of League. Told Heather and Meghan. Cried in the shower.
I told Meghan and Heather about this guy throughout the three days he went silent. Meghan has a number of really hot ideas involving some third male person. Heather is asexual but really really like the idea of live yaoi.
Dexy...Dexter hurt me, really badly. I tried anything for a few days to distract myself, the catfish, grindr, other guys I know from chat rooms. I over bared myself to them when I could just do that here and link it.
That leads me to:
If We Got Married No One Would Have to Change Their Last Names, Cartoonist Who Draws Like Me, Puppeteer Who Made a Way Better Puppet Than Me and I Love It and Other Reason Why I Might Be In Love With Isabella Bunny Bennett
A long time ago. And right now Iām pausing to see if I can find the thing...
Ok as far as I know itās gone? Maybe I can get it from Linkaraās title card artist.
He and I interviewed Isabella back when she in the long ago times and it was one of the all time best conversations I had ever had in my life. She is bright and funny and clever and iām crying again, what the...Ok I came back in twenty minutes later to fix this mess. I did start crying a little. Itās hard to remember it all but Bunny was so natural, we finished each otherās thoughts. I really wanted to talk forever. Sheās so...shit literally crying...
This was a very long time ago, John was still in the band.I lost track and my internet presence took a nose dive. That will get many blogs.
Her twitter posts recently (Septā17) are really lining up with how I feel.The normal places I thought I could meet someone online, are failing me. Itās frustrating, but I can do one thing at least. Flirt with Isabella. I flirt with art:
I got no context for this guy at the bottom...he didnāt get my context clearly.
Anyway
...
.....
...in the song Burning in the Stratosphere she makes a kissy noise and says...āI love youā but at the beginning in a near whisper...chills. I wasnāt expecting it, really hadnāt visited the album itās on til tonight.
I hope to talk more about Isabella in the future. Iām a chaos magician, so itās likely to happen.

What Itās Like to Write a Book
Chapter 1ā¦ Just kidding!
But, to be serious, I preface that this is not a blanket piece that will cover the way every writer feels or behaves during the writing process. It is, however, my own personal journey as a writer and NaNoWriMoer (plus some advice) thus far. I hope it is insightful!
Writing a book is super fun and rewarding, but it can be a messy business, even when you plan and organize ātil the cows come home. Iāve had Pinterest boards for nearly six years on what I want settings, buildings, clothing, and people to look like. Iāve done research online, rented books from the library, taken extensive notes on all sorts of things for monthsā¦ But, Iāll tell you what. Iām still improv writing as I go.
Yep! Iām learning that my prepared, āPlannerā self has turned into a āPlantserā, according to NaNoWriMo standards.
* To make a brief and educational aside, NaNoWriMo has three categories of preparedness badges it awards, and they are as follows (in my own words, of course):
Planner: Notes, notes, notesā¦ and everything is plotted out. Youāve done so much work your novel could ALMOST write itself.
Plantser: Youāve got ideas! Andā¦ youāve written some out. But, things are kind of uncertainā¦
Pantser: Woohoo! Starting from scratch!!!
Even after six years of thinking about this book, my ideas have evolved and changed so much. Iām tempted to say theyāve changed even more in the span of a few months. And, since I didnāt really have much of an outline beforehand, perhaps I cannot truly call myself a full-fledged āPlannerā. Still debating that one.
Although I had some small sections and paragraphs written out before Novemberās NaNoWriMo event this past year, thus far, the majority of my writing has been contained within the months of November and December 2016 and I am amazed at how even that previously-mentioned book outline keeps evolving (May I also just say that having an outline is definitely a good way to go. I didnāt quite know where to start, but a friend sent me a link to this amazing outline (found here), which I used to create my own. I also recommend reading the other fun and helpful tips the blogās author, Christine FrazierĀ writes. Itās wonderful!).
Beginning the Beginning
After I had that outline filled in a bit, at least for the first few chapters, I got to writing. But, I didnāt start with what I thought would be the very beginning. I wrote a part that I felt most passionate about. Strangely enough, it did make it to the first chapter after I realized it was a good fit! But, I kept going with writing what I felt most drawn to, or what scenes I had previously visualized. It made writing consistently MUCH easier. And, as Iāve learned, more scenes and ideas pop into your head as you get those first ones down, so you just have to keep going, no matter how you feel.
It wasnāt but a few days in to NaNoWriMo that I realized something. Despite having an outline, I actually DIDNāT know where I was going! What ending was I working toward? What goals, struggles, and conflicts was I going to have to create and then wrap up in those last few chapters? So, I fixed my problem as best I knew how. I jumped to writing my ending.
This is where I realized my mind is a deeper, more unknown place than I could ever have imagined. I had no clue where all of these words and ideas were coming from. And, if any of you follow me on Twitter, you would have seen this postā¦
Really, though, I was so sucked into my own, surprisingly spooky, imaginary world that I needed a break. It was a lot like the feeling you get when you read a suspenseful novel for hours and you have to pull yourself away for dinner, right at the climax. You know, where you are supposed to figure out who the villain is or whether or not the hero solves the mystery. Exceptā¦ I was the one writing it and I still had no idea where my ideas were coming from. Do DOOO doā¦. That was just as frightening. But, cool. Definitely cool. God is mysteriousā¦ I hope He tells me how those ideas got in there some day.
Once I put on my brave pants (and probably had some comforting hot chocolate), I wrote on! And boy, did writing the ending at the beginning help so much! I could further outline my plot and think more deeply about my characters, their motivations, and what in the world they would be doing for several hundred pages. Itās only fairā¦ itās their lives after all.
Chā¦ Chā¦ Chā¦ Changes!
But, it didnāt take long into my writing for my pre-formed ideas and all those thousands of words I had gotten down to suddenly have the plot and my characters make a HUGE shift.
Yes, that was a day later, folks. Everything happened so fast. And you know what ended up happening? I split a character in two! Yep! I decided that one character was having waaaayy too much responsibility put upon him. I can tell you, though, it made things a little tricky when it came to going back and making sure there was continuity, ācause I really liked that character before they got all interested in my protagonist.
Iāll admit I fought this change. I remember chatting with a fellow writer friend a few days before about my plot and how my characters were going to develop. They said something like, āYou should make that one character her love interest.ā I was like, NOOOO! I had fallen in love with this character I created. The whole plot seemed to revolve around himā¦ he held so many keys to so many things. He was one big, easy answer to many of the problems.
And as I wrote that day, November 4, my friendās words hit meā¦ and I realized they were right. And that one character shouldnāt carry the plot along so heavily and be an easy, tidy fix to all the problems in this imaginary world. I knew the novel would be so much more interesting if I allowed things to grow, to change, and become more complex. I just had to take really good notes as I went.
Taking Notes
May I note here that taking excellent notes is crucial? Thereās no way around it. Youāve gotta keep track of your ideas, changes, noticeable plot holesā¦ all of it. Especially in the moment you notice them.
I kid you not, there are pages in my Word Doc where the margins are mostly text. And the notes can be from various days. Since I go back and read through what Iāve written quite a bit, particularly when I change one part of the book that relates to another, I have notes scattered around from all different days and times of reading them. And, I always try to date them so that I know the progression of my ideas.
I also do this in the chapter outline I created. I date the changes I make, and cross out old ideas I no longer think Iāll use. But, I try not to delete them. You never know when you might use that information! It does make for a rather messy plot outline, but itās just the way it is. Perhaps a better color coding system would do well for me. āTil then, Iām happy with the mess it is!
Organization and Backup
Your style of organization may be a bit of a mess, as mine can sometimes be. Thatās okay, as long as you know where everything is AND have the information backed up. I have two different notebooks full of ideas, the margin notes on the actual Word Doc, the plot outline (also a Word Doc), and a few other documents into which I have taken out portions of my story. My important computer work is all backed up, but Iāll admit my handwritten stuff isnāt quite so secured. Which, is definitely not cool, because the research that isnāt in my head is in one of those notebooks. And itās a fair amount of research. I even have my character bios in there. *Sigh* Looks like I need to take my own advice!
But, I will say, I rather like the way I keep track of things. Every time I write and take a break, I save what I have and send it through one, big email chain. It helps me know what Iāve written each day and how the document changes should I ever need to go back and reference an older version. Itās also encouraging to see the file grow bigger every time you send it!
It may also be worth saying to try to have things backed up to some kind of cloud drive as well, and maybe a hard drive or USB. Or two. Two USB copies canāt hurt. Multiple, variegated types of storage canāt hurt, either.
Further Thoughts & Helpful Tips
I have to admit Iāve become rather addicted to my book. I have this strange way of dealing with it, though. Thereās this intense desire to leave it be and walk away, to gather my thoughts and do something other than write. But, at the same time, I just want to keep going, and going, and goingā¦ There are days where my whole world revolves around my book. Aside from meals and small breaks, there was a day I pretty much spent morning to morning on it (Sorry to my husband who apparently was waiting for me to go to bed at 12:30 am! :/).
Iāve seen people say that they have a love / hate relationship with their books. I get it now, but hate may be a bit strong. There are days where I feel overwhelmed by the amount of additions Iāve put into the plot, or the edits Iāll have to make, or even by simply having to just keep writing until I figure out what happens next. But, itās a fun relationship and I really enjoy writing.
Something I recommend, if you havenāt already done it, is writing as a group. You donāt have to be in person, but youāll definitely benefit from having a team support you. I LOVE NaNoWriMo as it brings people together at one time to get out that first draft. I dunno about you, but I do a whole lot better when I have others to work alongside, or maybe even compete with on word count a littleā¦ Itās especially nice to have people to bounce ideas off of. Itās pretty priceless, especially when you get stuck.
Read Other Writers
If you do get stuck, though, and even if you donāt, I highly recommend reading other books in the genre youāre writing! I believe this was a tip NaNoWriMo tip sent out in 2016. If two of us are saying it, it must be a thing! Iāve got a shelf of books Iāve loved since I was in elementary school and have since added to. I recently picked up quite a few, if not the majority of the fantasy books for a re-read. I have a really hard time re-reading books, so this is a big deal. Iāll tell you what, thoughā¦ it helped me so much!
In fact, it helped me reconnect with another big idea. I pulled āAureliaā by Anne Osterlund off of my shelf (Thanks for the great book, girl!) and got curious. What if she had a websiteā¦ So, I did some research and found her site! She had lots of great tips on there, and apparently had released sequels to āAureliaā (I need to get on that!). But, what I liked most is something she had written about her characters. She mentioned that during her writing, her villain slowly revealed itselfā¦ and changed!
This really hit me. In fact, I needed to hear it. I needed confirmation that it was okay to let my characters evolve and change, to not keep them in their little boxes. That another author I respected and had read had gone through this. That things reveal themselves to you as you write and that things can change for the better.
So, thank you Anne Osterlund for your continued inspiration in my life. I am happy to say that since reading about your experience, my characters have developed wings of their own and are flying happily around my mind and helping me figure out where they need to go to get to the end of those (hopefully) 21 chapters. And, maybe a sequel or two!
I love writing and sharing about my experiences and would love to help however I can. If you have any questions or fun stories of your own, let me know! You can share them with me on Tumblr, Twitter, Facebook, Google+, and Instagram. And if you really want to make sure you reach me, you can even email me at [email protected].
