Sooo... I know my last journal entry was me being grumpy and grouchie about my Uncle passing away, but it was rather sudden. Anyways, from the way things are looking, this summer, my family and I will being going up to Washington this summer for a family reunion, but it will be the family celebrating the life of my late uncle and aunt who passed away, 2 weeks apart. It's going to be a very relaxed reunion and it sounds like most, if not everyone will, or should be able to make it. Anyways, that's my little update for here if anyone wishes to read it.

I suck, and some news
2 min read
Okay, so I know it's been quite a while, and for one, I do apologize to everyone. Life has been kicking my butt and my teeth, all at once. However... I don't know if I'm being a complete moron about this, over confident, or I need to just get my head out of the clouds. Either way, my brain has decided that it wants to try and get a book published. I have a story planned out, the first book has been typed up, and I'm working through a second edit to get it polished, and I'm currently looking for illustrators to help with pictures. I have already been in contact with a couple of people, who sound like they are open to helping me, and I do hope that they can. I'm looking into self-publishing and have found a company called "Palmetto Publishing". Apparently, this company really helps people who want to self publish, and they seem seriously legit. They leave up any complaints to show that they do whatever it takes to make sure that authors that want to publish, are taken care of accordingly, and that the complaints are taken seriously. So, I'm going to give them a chance, and hope for the best.
Like I said. I'm either a moron, overly confident when I shouldn't be, or I need to wrangle my brain out from the clouds. This is making me nervous just thinking about it, but I do hope that I can get a book published.

Extreme Hiatus Reason...
1 min read
So, as many of you have noticed, I haven't posted on here since... April 22, 2016..... -_-...
Holly shit... I am pathetic. But, do not fret, I have not totally given up on my writing. My muse sadly gave me the finger and has been on hiatus, plus, my cat Mysti passed away last year around April and I have been in a huge funk. I CAN'T EVEN PAINT TO SAVE MY ASS. So... I have decided to just take my time and proofread the previous chapters of my AHM Nightingale story to try and polish it up. Hopefully, I will be able to drag my muse back and get myself back in the saddle of writing and doing other things.
Also, I want to say thank you to everyone who has been putting up with me about this, and I hope I can do all of you good with new chapters that I can hopefully crank out sometime. Thanks again.

Update and 1 year older
5 min read
Greetings everyone. Well, to start off, yes, I am 1 year older, making me officially... 31 years old. Now, I know that to most of you, that isn't really old. That, I can agree on. Sadly though, I feel older than I am. Reason being, having served time in the U.S. military, it wrecked my body to where my joints, muscles, and everything else in between, hurt really badly, and snap, crackle and pop when I don't want them to. Yeah... I'm a rice crispy treat that's in a thousand knots. But I digress.
Now, on to the update side of this journal. I'm still working on chapter 21, which should be done shortly before Christmas. But depending on how well my creativity lasts, and no art blocks hitting me face first, that is what I am aiming for right now.
I know that the last... 2 chapters I believe, have pretty much been fillers, and this chapter will be another filler with how it's going. I'm hoping that I can move the story along a little better, either with chapter 22 or 23. I just don't want to skip out on any parts that would be important to the story, and leave you guys wondering how the hell I got to the one part. And yes, there will be OCs making appearances in the story. I am looking through everyones characters and I hope I can make some final decisions as to who I want in the story.
If you don't want your OC in my story, please don't hesitate to say "no". I just don't want to be stepping on people's toes.
Thank you for your time.
Mira.
