This is my work in progress list… and how I keep track of my word count.
This week was more computer mess. The long story short of it is my boyfriend pulled my old computer (1060 graphics card and all) out, dusted it off and got it running until we can replace the parts for the newer one.
I have a new writing friend Jacob. His feedback got a couple of the things moving forward. I also went on a spurt and finished Decaying Thoughts. It will be out in April.
This is a busy time for me due to Fae Corps Publishing. Anthologies and getting ready for kids week. So I didn’t get to start Drawtober on time. I plan on getting caught up tomorrow. that means you might see Serenity’s Art corner on Tuesday instead of the usual stuff.
Today I’m kinda feelin’ like a ghost Call my friends but ain’t nobody home Tell myself I’m fine, but I don’t really know I’m just scared that I’ll end up I’ll end up, I’ll end up alone
I never let it show But I feel like a missed call on a phone Tryna live my life pay as you go But I’m so scared that I’ll end up I’ll end up, I’ll end up alone
You know I’m like a ghost Sometimes I have to fade And it haunts me that I have to be this way You say it’s gone cold I say I’ll do better But I always seem to disappear again You know I’m like a ghost I see it in your face And it haunts me that I have to be this way You say it’s gone cold I say I’ll do better But I always seem to disappear again You know I’m like a ghost
You know I never meant to cut you off Got phantom feelings I can never stop Stranger things to worry ’bout I know But I’m so scared that I’ll end up I’ll end up, I’ll end up alone
I can’t see myself in the mirror Does that mean I’m not really here? I’m losin’ touch with everything I know And I’m so scared that I’ll end up I’ll end up, I’ll end up alone
You know I’m like a ghost Sometimes I have to fade And it haunts me that I have to be this way You say it’s gone cold I say I’ll do better But I always seem to disappear again You know I’m like a ghost I see it in your face And it haunts me that I have to be this way You say it’s gone cold I say I’ll do better But I always seem to disappear again You know I’m like a ghost
You know I’m like a ghost Ooh, I’ll be ok I’ll be alright I know, ooh, I’ll be ok I’m just scared that I’ll end up alone
You know I’m like a ghost I see it in your face And it haunts me that I have to be this way You say it’s gone cold I say I’ll do better But I always seem to disappear again You know I’m like a ghost
My 2 cents –
I feel like this is so very relatable. And since we are officially in spooky season…felt appropriate.
For Magic Tree House readers who are ready for something longer, the Dragon Keepers series has the perfect length and reading level, along with the fast-paced writing, adventure, and sense of teamwork that kids love to read.
Ten-year-old cousins Jesse and Daisy have always wanted something magical to happen to them. So it’s a wish come true when Jesse’s newly found thunder egg hatches and a helpless, tiny, but very loud, baby dragon pops out. Soon the two kids are at the dragon’s beck and call, trying to figure out what to feed her. An Internet search leads them to the library, which leads them back to the Internet, where they find a very strange Web site called foundadragon.org. Here the cousins discover that the dragon’s hatching has designated them “Dragon Keepers.” Not only do they have to feed the dragon, whom they named Emmy, but they also have to keep her safe from the villainous Saint George, who has kept himself alive over centuries by drinking dragons’ blood!
My Thoughts
So I bought this when my youngest was in third grade. We read the entire series together. It is a cute middle grade read. The series is fun and worth a read, even for adults.
This is my work in progress list… and how I keep track of my word count.
This week was more computer mess. my cpu needs to be replaced.
depression has had me crashing more than usual. Even though I have access to my boyfriend’s computer it is not the same as having my own. His is set up for games and my own was set up for desktop publishing as well.
He said that he doesn’t mind me installing what I need…but that is several programs and fonts just to be able to do my work. so I have guilt.
