Okay this is the first really long journal. And even though I have just started typing this I know it's going to be long. Why? Because I intend to make it that way. First off this entry is about the stories that I am writing. When I get up off of my butt long enough to get anything finished. First, Silver Roses. Torn's story. I've gotten some chapter summaries written up for them and I'm rather proud of them. I haven't gotten enough yet but it's a start. It's getting really creepy. And I enjoy thinking up the parts when the gang splits up and starts doing research. To me that is always the most interesting part of the book because you can see what the character goes through as they try and find out what's going on using the resources they have. You get closer to the characters that way. I enjoy getting into their heads and making them more realistic. That way people can relate with them. Next is Siren's Song. Due to the fact that I felt the story wasn't going the way I intended for it I've decided to add more changes. Mostly in the plot. Siren is a little different. Insteed of having been a bounty hunter for a long time she's only just begun and isn't entirely sure of what to do. And I've made Meme (Bonnie Cobalt, Siren's grandmother) a bigger part of the story. Plus I've been drawing out maps of the World of X Isle. So I can get a better look at it. And I've changed some things. There are two halves of X Isle. The half where the Navy and the government rule. And then the darker half where the Lost Circle is. That's what the pirates rule over. The navy has a harder time keeping the law there. I'm not sure I'm going to have them enter the Circle so soon. I might safe that for later on. I should develop a better storyline plus Sai's island isn't in the Circle anymore it's just part of the darker side of X Isle. Phoenix island (after Sai's last name which is Phoenix, which plays a big part in the story as well since his ship is named The Blue Phoenix). And lastly, the hard hard hard story for me to write, Adia Star. I've been writing things down for it lately. I got a starting chapter (sorta). However I'm not sure where it should go. I'm working on that. The story is very complex and I want to give it a lot of credit but it's so hard to write for me because it has bigger meaning. It is the first story I have ever tried to write and I could not tell you how many times it has been rewritten. I've never gotten past the first few chapters. Writing is tough I tell you. But anyway my hands are starting to ache so I'll stop here now. You can breathe again. blaugh
