The title is correct.
Sorry that I didn't normally post yesterday; I just now came off the excitement high :D
Isn't Silly Putty the most random and awesome thing ever? You can use it for probably, like, a thousand things. I just think it's really cool and awesome. If you live in some horrible country where you're deprived of this wonderful solid, just know it's like Play-Doh and Kinetic Sand had a baby and it came in tons of colors. Also, it has some of the qualities of a Superball as well. It's awesome.
Another thing of note? I have found an illustrator for my book! Now I have more than one talented artist friend :D But still haven't found a publishing company that would take my work, I am only a first-time author after all. No reputation for being good. But that means I don't have any reputation for being bad, either, so who knows what'll happen? Hopefully they like my work, but I still don't know who to submit it to. I don't really want to self-publish, as it would be SO MUCH WORK for me, and I also need an editor. I've been getting informal help from my friends (one in particular, thanks), but I need to make an official editor something that I have. I'm open as of now, but probably will ask one of my friends to do it. I'm never good at revising my own work... I'm too convinced that it's perfect to admit any flaws! Haha
Anyways, I'm making more friends at my school. There are a couple that I'm fairly good friends with, and another couple acquaintances. We have to get dressed for gym- an entirely new experience for me. I've gotten fairly good at spinning my locker combo, but not the one that's on my PE locker... *sigh* one day. I'm still very glad that I'm making friends, though! I miss my old school, that's true, but my new school seems fairly cool too. I miss my friends most of all. I want to see them more, since I'm used to seeing them five, six, or all seven days of the week (school for five, and then a sleepover from sat. to sun.), and now I might possibly see them once a month, or less... I'm still missing them, though.
My story's coming along in leaps and bounds. I have around... 46 pages now? Still can't release the link until I get copyright... Not sure how to do that, one of the perks of a publishing company to format it and release it for you. I dream of the day when I can hold my entire, whole book in my hands, look at it, and say "You did well, Gracc. You did well." I hope that's going to be soon, but it might take, like, another year to finish it, get the illustrations, and get it published and mass-released. Hopefully not that long, but maybe... I still want to publish it quickly, which is why I've been working on it so much. I'm helping another writer with some tips on how to craft her story, too. It seems to be working for her, so I hope I'm helping. I will give author tips to the general public, too, but ONLY if this page gets 20 views in the first week. It is a steep goal, I know, but that's what it takes for me to divulge my secrets to the world! :D I know you guys can do it!
Anyways, have to go for now! Please give me post titles, so that I can get better names for them instead of titling them "hey" or "Hey Guys!" Thanks!
