Hello homies!

Just thought I'd try that out 'cause I really love the word homie. Yeah, yeah, I'm weird. I know. I write books, so of course I'm not normal.

Today I'm gonna talk about the horror that is writer's block.

You see, for  a while, I didn't believe in writer's block. It took me less than four months to write Blood Princess. I could've finished it even sooner if Netflix didn't exist. But it does, and I was watching the world's greatest show ever, Roswell, so I took a little more time. Still, four months isn't bad. 

Anyways. 

I am now a believer in writer's block. IT SUCKS. SO MUCH. I HATE IT.  Lately, I can't seem write anything that doesn't make me want to rip it up and feed it to an alpaca.  I can think about my characters all day and night, creating the intricate details of the plot and growing them as people. No big deal. When I try to write, however, my brain turns to spaghetti noodles.

But I've got a sequel to write, so I'm gonna keep on working at it until something finally clicks.

I'm also gonna try reading more. I've heard that reading a good book is sure to get rid of your writer's block in a jiffy, so we'll see if that works.

And now, here's what's currently happening in my life:

Finals: are over! So is school! Thank goodness. I was so done with everything. SUMMER BREAK IS HERE AND I'M LEAVING THE COUNTRY. But forreal. I'm actually going to do that.

Japan: and that's where I'm headed. I'll spend a lovely seven weeks making friends and sharin' Jesus. I'm pumped. I love Jesus, and Japan. Hopefully I'll get a chance to use the Japanese that I know!

Currently reading: I was reading Dark Artifices by Cassandra Clare, but I straight up lost the book. It was $17 dollars, too. I'm kinda bitter about it. I hope it turns up before my 10 hour plane ride.

Currently watching: Still Gossip Girl. And NCIS....That finale, though?!!? Bye, Tony. Thank you for one last episode full of ALL THE TEARS. Forreal, when I watched it all I could do was cry and eat cookie dough.

Currently thinking: about cookie dough, because that sounds delicious. And about how excited I am for this new makeup I ordered to come in on Monday.  

So there you have it. My life right now. I'll have a guest blogger for the next few months, as I will be in another country and won't have the time to post regularly. Thanks for helping  me out, Tim! You da best.
