REWRITE – Snowfiss’s Story

Click on the image to enlarge it.

Once again, I have rewritten a story that I wrote a few years ago. This is a story for my neopet character, Snowfiss, who is a neopets lupe, very much like a wolf. Snowfiss has a page that I created for her. Please check it out to learn more about her and to see more art I drew of her.

Snowfiss’ Webpage

I wasn’t always like this, alone and untrusting. I used to be friendly and I used to be happy. When I was young, I found the little joy there was in this snowy wasteland. I never complained of my life, and I never looked back. I kept my head up and I looked forward to each coming day. That all has changed now…changed ever since the humans came.

Check Up: February 25, 2007

I wrote this week, although it wasn’t exactly all good quality. I hope once again that I will do much better next week. This week, from February 18 to February 24, 2007, I wrote 6,677 words on Magic Pens and 581 elsewhere coming to be a total of 7,258 words. For reading, I read 62 pages of Rebecca written by Daphne DuMaurier and (if it counts,) A Practical Guide to Dragons.

Perspective

This is a little retarded, but I wanted to write it anyways.

The sun was brightly shining through the clear glass of the window, beaming brightly across Martin’s shoulder as he sat in his usual chair, at his usual time, on a usual Sunday afternoon, just after he had eaten his usual breakfast. Martin was not a man of any interest as he went about his common routine. On this day, he had just finished eating his breakfast and had seated himself within the plushy armchair of no color, at which he would sit every cheery Sunday afternoon. Reaching to the small, wooden side table that rested at his side, he pulled the latest newspaper from the pile and unfolded it out before him. As he sat comfortably under the luminescence of the sun, he felt comforted within the heat that warmed him and quietly caught up on the latest news. He felt as if he was in total control as he reigned over his house and enjoyed his day.

My Thoughts: February 22, 2007 – Fate, Coincidence, and Just Plain Luck

As I see it, there are three major things in life that seem to have a great effect on us. In an instant, these forces can change our lives drastically, sometimes for good, and sometimes for bad. We could be thinking one thing one moment, and the next, have completely different thoughts. These forces can cause great happiness and end deep sorrow, yet they can also destroy hope and bring depression upon one. They guide the way our life unfolds before us, and occasionally add unexpected turns and twists. This uneven path can bring difficulties and fortunes along.

What are these forces?

Story Prompt: My Story

The administrator of the writing club, Magic Pens, that I am in, created a story prompt to motivate us to write. Basically, we were at a meeting and read some of our stories on stage in front of everybody. Afterwards, our stories came alive and started attacking us. He wrote about where each person was afterwards and what state they were in, and I have matched them up in my story pretty well. We each had our own versions of what happened, and here is mine…

I nervously began to walk up the few stairs of the stage clenching my story within my hands. Walking to the small podium that was erected before the audience of Magic Penians, I felt a timid shake overcome me for a second. I had never actually read my story before an actual audience before, yet I was ready for the new challenge. I gave a faint, weak smile before reading the first few words of my rewrite. “Running through the early morning moistness of the Mathurin Forest that enveloped her quaint home in obscuration, a young girl of ten brushed through the rough branches that tore at her soft-featured face.” After a few minutes of reading my Horse from the Woods story, I began to feel more confident as I began to twitch less often and become more steady and fluent with my words. Before I knew it, I was leaving the stage with applause from the crowd and taking my seat in the first row.

Absence?

I apologize ahead of time if I am absent this week for my internet is currently being finicky and our internet providers called to tell us that they are coming to fix it this Thursday. I am currently typing with a wireless internet connection called Donkey that is not my own. Perhaps one of my neighbors’…*shifty eyes* Well this connection is deathly slow and unreliable causing it to be a hassle to come on-line and it seems to stop connecting abruptly and unexpectedly. I may or may not be absent from my blog this week, however I promise that I will be typing on Microsoft Word and will try to post all of my writings when I get my internet connection back. Sorry to disappoint anybody. lol

Meeting Overview: February 19, 2007

We had a meager crowd at our Magic Pens meeting, Monday, February 19, 2007 at Main Street Books at 1:00 PM, but we did get a few good points across. Here is a thorough overview in case you missed the meeting or need a little refresher.

Story Idea #3

Write your explanation why Lindsey was not there in my story, How was this Possible? or write your “ending” to the story.

Check Up: February 18, 2007

Alright, due to the immense amount of babysitting and homework that I had along with my temproary suspension from my computer, I have once again had a low week. On Magic Pens this week from February 11 to February 17, 2007, I wrote 4,539 and 404 words on paper. This comes to be 4,943 words. I promise that this upcoming week will be a better one. For reading, I once again failed. I read the first 20 pages of Rebecca by Daphne DuMaurier. Once again, I promise that my next week will be much better than this one for I have deeply disappointed myself. My lack of writing has been disturbing me. *twitch*

Story Idea #2

Write your “ending” to my open-ended story, Matt’s Contest 01 – Sly Lynx.
