More Excuses..... =P

First off, I want to thank Kelly for the sketch she drew me a while back.

Second, I want to let Dawn know that I will be posting the sketch that I am doing for her, sometime this week. Sorry for the delay.

Lastly, this was just an update. How sad. T-T Work is keeping me very busy, but, I have been invited to join a Writing Group, by Kelly, once school starts back up, so, I am looking forward to that. I hope that everyone's summer has gone well so far and that everyone has gotten a chance to get a good amount of writing in. =]

Author: Jane Yolen

It's really incredible to be able to work at a bookstore, because when you aren't busy, you can look up more books to read. Today, I decided to research the author of a book that I am currently reading, "Sword of the Rightful King", by Mrs. Jane Yolen. The book is very interesting so far, following the tale of Arthur and Merlin, but with a twist. It's just, I haven't gotten to the twist yet, but the back of the book says that there will be one. I will just keep reading it.

Anyway, I'm digressing. I found a few new books by her that I was interested in, and, in fact, one of those books is coming out next month, titled: "Sister Light, Sister Dark". That seemed very good and once our store has it, I will look into it. =D

*Insert Random Title Here* =P

Hey everyone. I'm sorry about not posting much after my blogfest. I have been babysitting most of the weeks and and we've been doing some work aroune the house. Plus, my laptop is still "broken", so I have to share our family computer with my brothers and parents. So, it's a challenge. =P

Ok, enough with the excuses. I just wanted to let you guys know that I'm still here. I will try posting more again this weekend.

Anyway, I am excited for tomorrow night because Part 2 of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" is coming out, and I have already bought my ticket for the premiere midnight showing. When I bought my ticket, the lady who sold it to me told me to show up early because they had already sold 650 tickets, and that was on Monday! Well, anyway, I think that it will be good and that I will yhave fun at my friend's Harry Potter-themed party before we go to the movie. Being blonde, she suggested that I dress up as Luna, so, maybe I will. =P

Well, I will post again sometime soon. If I can. =)
