What have I been writing recently...
I wrote my narrative for governor's school today. I started it of with a Nine Inch Nails quote and then told how that quotes embodied my writing style. I would share the whole thing with you, but its really not all that interesting. I will share a segment of it though.
"Writing is who I am. It is such a part of me. My characters all reflect a part of me in a very subtle way. Sometimes I forget they are just people that I created because they feel so real. They are so human and full emotions that I breathe. If writing slips away from my sleepless mind like forgotten dreams then the essence of me has been forgotten like those dreams."
What I have been reading...
I started two books last night. One I got so sick of by page 20 that I had to put it down. That one was called General Winston's Daughter. It wasn't that bad of a book, but I was just not captivated by it. It didn't have a voice that made it stand out. The characters were a bit predictable by just the 20th page. So I put that down and picked up a book that I hadn't read in at least three years. I opened Inkheart. They are making a movie from this book. I don't think the movie will hold up to the excellence of this book. I mean its no Harry Potter, but it's really worth a read because it is really different.
Today I have listened to a lot of music (as usual). I found this artist called Johnny Flynn the other day. I thought he was just okay when I first started listening to him. But I have been addicted to it and learned to love him. He sounds interesting. As I said to someone, If you like Noah and the Whale and contemporary folk music check him out. He has a different voice.
I think I'm going to post what I'm listening to as I wrap up this blog each time. so I am listening to Tokyo Moon by Windmill.
