Just finished Wm. Paul Young's "The Shack"

Well total cry fest tonight as I finally finished the last half of "The Shack." by Wm. Paul Young. That book has opened my eyes to God, Jesus, and The Holy Spirit. Or should I say Papa, Jesus and Sarayu? lol.
I really reccomend the book if you're having trouble in your faith. It really uniquely administers obivious views from God's eyes onto certain subjects. As like to forgiving an abusive father, enduring the murder of a daughter, or forgiving the murderer of your daughter. It all comes together in a spirit lifting conclusion. And I really enjoyed reading Mack's journey!
Thanks Kathy for lending me the book!

Well night all! I'm especially fond of you!

With lots of love, Kristia S.<3<3<3
God Bless<3<3<3 Or should I say? Papa Bless?

"Sunlight." by wildgreenskittle aka Gwen on inkpop.com. GREAT READ!


"Sunlight."
by wildgreenskittle
on inkpop.com
 Okay I have found yet another obsess worthy book on inkpop! Guess who it's by?
No other than the genius wildgreenskittle aka Gwen (newg). This is the second of my faves coming from her! She blew me away with "Steel Horizon." which was a top pick in November!
Anyways this is a companion novel to "Steel Horizon." when I found out, I got stoked! Cause my love for Steel Horizon reaches high, so of course I got grasped onto for this read!
But I'm going to be honest, this has been sitting in my watch list for a while. I've been lazy about reading projects on inkpop lately. :/ I've been pretty busy writing on "Invisible Heart." So now I'm ashamed that I didn't read it sooner! GAHH!!! *cries*
ANYWAYS, I think you my followers should definitely check out this genius book! You won't regret it!

My official comment on inkpop.com below.

You know what?

I absolutely adore this! The whole main plot of this is awesome!

BUT, my only thing I’m concerned about is…your main characters ages. :/ If you are aiming for this to be a YA novel, you’ll have to keep them in the teen range. I’ve had this complaint on my own stuff before, and publishers will point that out sooner or later. IF you are aiming for this to be a YA. So if I were you, I would consider either taking the ages down to nineteen or eighteen to keep in that range, so publishers won’t gripe about it. But if you’re not planning on this as being a YA. You’re PERFECT!
Anyways, that was my only concern that MIGHT need improving.

I love how you make the relationship between West and Reese so natural and cute. You make it so addictive to feel what they feel, and it draws a reader into the story even more. I can feel Reese’s tummy tingling along with her, and that even draws me in more. I haven’t had a good tummy romance tingle in a while (Well actually since Steel Horizon XD ), I’ve craved one for so long. I thrive for cute easygoing romances. And West and Reese are quenching my want for it!

But in some parts I feel that you could slow the pace down. Maybe in the second draft? Perhaps slow it down a bit? Possibly make Reese crave West’s presence not because he made her feel something for him, but because she doesn’t want to be alone anymore? Just a suggestion, for me this is fine as it is. I’m only pointing out what others might have some confliction on.

I love how you describe how smexy West is, with his black spiky hair and blue eyes. I can’t help but picture a guy like “Elijah Wood.” Or “Logan Lerman.” Or perhaps even “Tom Welling.” (but he may be too buff. Lol. ) OHH! Maybe the guy (I forgot his actual name) he plays Tyler Lockwood on The Vampire Diaries! Lol. Well you catch my drift, I picture the most hottest guys in my mind for West. YUMMY.

BUT, I haven’t gotten the vibe if what Reese looks like. :/ All I pretty much catch is that she is a girl. And perhaps that is pretty, because of how West keeps staring at her. ;)

My heart broke for Reese when West leaves in chapter thirteen! I had tears in my eyes! But that kiss woooo *fans self* HOT! But I wouldn’t mind a little bit more description on it, give us more of a feel and at how long it lasted.

OMGOSH! Is all I can say really! And I’m going to blog about this, to let my followers know about this epic read! This soooooo deserves to be published! IT NEEDS TO BE PUBLISHED!
Now you’re making it hard on me to pick which is my favorite, Steel Horizon or Sunlight??!! AHHH!!!!! What to choose!!! I CANNOT!!!!! Haha

Genius work!
This is going to be on my picks for a long while girly!

Well gotta go work on a new project of mine, so I can get it posted on here by New Years. :D

Keep this up! Can you notify me when you update???? Puh-LEASE????? Lol XD

Oh to ye wrapping paper! How do thou hate ye! (Busy, busy, busy)

I have wrapped until I cannot wrap no more!!

I have been literally swamped with wrapping up my nephew's gifts. (Gifts that we thought we weren't going to able to afford. Explain later.)

Okay before I get to the wrapping catastrophy! I'll get onto other things.

Reasons I haven't been online or been able to respond to everyone or even write for the past week or so. Well...Tuesday I went shopping with my youth pastor and cousin at K-Mart, fetching $149.00 worth of presents for homeless kids down at sojurners. I never knew how hard it was to shop for an eleven year old girl! (I consider that the awkward age. Stuck between being a tom-boy and being introduced to the world of make-up and being girly. So it could go either way, and I had no idea really what to get.) Oh and don't get me started on teenaged boys, which was even more hard. We were going to get them some skateboards, BUT they were like thirity dollars a piece. So we had to settle with some balls. Shopping for kids was fun, the toys put my generation of toys to SHAME! I never knew how pregressed toys was these days until I started playing around with them that day! Like those Zhu-Zhu pets? Those things are awesome (Even though they remind me of those little cat toys, that kitties chased around the house. lol. )
Okay afterwards, I had to go play camera person and director for a scene that my youth group's Christmas Cantata/Play. We went to an actual train station and filmed the scene in the flippin cold! And the cars passing above our heads on the bridge that was over the station and tracks, well let's brrr...more cold air came swamping down on us. My cheeks turned red, my hands felt like blocks of ice, I could barely press the buttons on my video camera. It was fun, don't get me wrong. I got to hang out with my awesome youth pastor-Curtis, my cousin-Ashley, and my good friend-Andre. We had a blast, laughed a lot, and went out to eat twice. Mcdonalds around noon and Ginos around four o'clock.
Wednesday, cantata pratice and youth lesson. Same ole' same ole', but I was still tired from the day before. And I was still editing the videos I was doing for the play.
Thursday and Friday, I was online and you guys may have ran into me. LOL.
Saturday, play pratice. Then around one or two we went to the kid's homeless shelter. VERY SAD. I wanted to cry at seeing so many kids there. Some were only like just months old! It was so sad. Then afterwards, the whole youth group got taken to McDonalds. Me I had a number fourteen "Swiss Mushroom." YUMMY. lol. Well we were leaving, going to be a long time getting all of the youth group home. Because where they lived all over the place. We had literally twenty of our teens that day to go. Well we pulled out of the parking lot, and all the sudden, "HEY! THERE'S JOSEPH RUNNING!" we all look out the window, there comes skinny jeaned Joseph running over snow pile after my youth pastor's Yukon (BTW, total Gas drinker. I stalked the gas meter the whole day.). His excuse was "I was taking a crap!" *chills* Then Curtis goes on a ramble about how he left a boy in Marrietta Ohio, back in the day. That he had to travel back three hours to go get the kid. (This is before cell phone time.) Then he went on about how that boy grew up to moved to San Fran and turned gay. Literally...

Me, Laura, Brandy, and Tessa. In the Church's
bathroom getting ready for the play.
We love taking pictures. <3
I love my girlies!
Then SUNDAY, all day pratice from 9:00 A.M until curtains down that night after the actual play. I was the narrator in some parts, and I had a time seeing my lines on the projector screen on the back wall. It was fuuny, I probably looked like an old woman with my glasses down my nose trying to see the words. And then I had a few acting parts, consisting of a preppy part saying "TOTALLY!" and then writing a letter to God. It was nerve racking knowing that one hundred and thirty five people showed up. IT WAS AWESOME!


Me and Kara.
I <3 her so much!
 Then MONDAY, my whole day consisted if wrapping up thirty-nine presents for my three nephews. My Momal helped of course, but still it was some hard work. I'm sick of wrapping paper. The funny thing is about how we didn't think the kids wouldn't have much of a Christimas this year is...well my brother in law lost his job six months ago. We were only going to get about two or three presents a piece. Well my nephew's school found out about this and funded them some money from a coal miners donation for poor families. And then a church up in Perryville (I have no idea where that is.) They sent a truck bed load to our house of toys. EXPENSIVE TOYS. I mean like remote controled trucks and motorcycles. And some clothes. So my nephews will have an fufulling Christmas Saturday.

Well I thought I would ramble about my week to you guys! And ALSO! Check this beauty out that my inkie bestie Hannah made for her character I'm basing off her!

GORGEOUS ISN'T IT???? Her character's name is Ria Malone and she's a Fire Fae/Sprite.
Oh how much I want to draw or make something for my friend! I just can't think of anything really! I thought I'd attempt to draw her character based off this photo manip I did a little bit ago.








But I want to do something more. :/ I guess I'll think up something. Maybe I'll break out one of my other hidden talents. lol. Yeah...TALENTS. lol. NOT.





Well gotta get to bed. I have to go to Krogers and get some stuff before Christmas, and then Church. We are going to be partying! LOL.

Night night!

The Mortal Instruments fan ramble and picture manipulation.

Boy I'm on a roll with picture manipulations for Jace and Clary! I'm just so phyched over Lily being Clary! I think she's absolutely PERFECT!
Now I really do HOPE and PRAY Alex Pettyfer will be our Jace. He's always been my Jace, hopefully he'll be Screen Gems's Jace Wayland too.


This is a pretty cover. But it makes me nervous.


I've been so freaking nervous about "City of Fallen Angels". (I don't like how Clary and Simon are on the cover. But it is pretty, don't get me wring.) --> 
MY MAIN CONCERN ABOUT IT IS!!
I SO scared that Jace and Clary won't end up together. GAH! The first three books would be kind of POINTLESS if they don't! Gosh! I think I need to stop following Cassie's twitter, because every freaking tweet makes me nervous. And I'm getting the vibe that she doesn't really like the Jace and Clary pairing, for some odd reason. :/ Seems like she favors Simon the most. Eck. I don't like Simon, he's annoying. And if she does pull a (If you ever read this Cassie. I'm sorry, I love you, but I have to say what I feel.)-- stupid stunt as to splitting Jace and Clary up in the end of the whole series. I think that the fans like me, will most likely send her HATE mail from HELL to her until DOOMSDAY. It would be freaking ridiculous to have most of the TMI fans cheer on this couple and they actually are together in the end of the three books, and then to spilt them up in the next three. That would freaking SUCK monkey balls, and be completely pointless. I mainly read this series BECAUSE of Jace and Clary. I thrive for this couple.
Okay...I don't go for Jace just because he's SMEXY, I go for him because Clary brings out his kind, adoring, loving, and brightly lit soul he has. He's a good person and he loves Clary with his whole being. And she does too. Or they wouldn't have tortured their selves through the whole first three books of not being able to be together. My heart broke everytime theirs did. :/
Simon, I do like him on some levels. BUT, he kind of gets annoying about being clingy to Clary. (I know guys like this, I actually DATED guys like this. And they were not the best boyfriends. They don't give you space or leave you alone when you want to be. And they call at like three o'clock in the morning just to "talk". And when you do go to sleep while on the phone with them, they make sure you wake back up to listen to their yammering. ECK. DUMPED THEM!) I can see Simon going for Maia, I actually route for that couple. :D I think they're ADORABLE. Isabelle, not so much. (I don't like her.)

Well I thought I'd ramble there a bit about my fear and whys. :D lol.

Gotta go feed my thirty doggies that's barking for me out in the freezing snow, (They won't stay in their dog houses that has a 250 Watt heat lamp keeping them pretty toasty. But nooo they want to bark for food, knowing that I will feed them in a few minutes.) ANYWAYS, I'm TMI fanaticking STILL hopefully my next post won't be on this subject. Maybe I'll post about how I've signed up for Wattpad.com. XD

Byes!

With lots of love, Kristia S.<3<3<3

ALEX PETTYFER!!

Clary Fray CASTED!!!!! I'm uber excited and JEALOUS!!!!


Lily Collins as Clary Fray.
(I manipulated this picture.
The red hair and green eyes.)
 
Lily Collins   is our beloved Clary Fray! Isn't she gorgeous!?
She is almost the ideal Clary. Well...for me anyways. Because I never really had a good visual on Clary while I was reading, other than seeing my own self. I think she's perfect! And she's SO TINY! LOVELY!!!
Okay...I'm excited and plus a little JEALOUS! Because I thought that "Face of A Fan.com" was going to do an open casting call for Clary. And I was sooooo going to try out. *shrugs* Guess that's not going to work out. :/ I wouldn't have made it anyway, BECAUSE I'm not pretty enough. *sighs* (see my about me page to see what I'm talking about being not pretty enough.)
And I definitely wouldn't make it as an Isabelle. :/ Actually, I wouldn't try out for her anyway. I DON'T LIKE HER! lol.
Gosh, I just realize something! Doesn't Lily resemble Emma Roberts? Doesn't she a little?

Alex Pettyfer
Hopeful JACE!!!
 Well ANYWAYS! I'm soooooo excited! This is going to be awesome!

So anyone up for going along with me and chant--"ALEX PETTYFER! ALEX PETTYFER!" to the casting director or what? lol. He's an ideal Jace Wayland/Lightwood/Hernondale.
Go here if you want to support him in MTV's open letter to the casting director! ->MTV's Open Letter To TMI Movie Casting Director
Oh well even if they don't get him, they'll find another suitable yummy delicious guy to play Jace. *crosses fingers* HOPE!!!
BUT, wouldn't Alex look sooooo good beside Lily here? I think so!!!
Well I'm happy with this casting choice!!!! :D
Hopefully I'll be just as pleased with the rest of the cast!

*insert high pitched girly fan squeal here*

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!!

I know obnoxious. :/ BUT I cannot help it! I'm uber excited!!!
With lots of love, Kristia S. <3<3<3
God Bless <3<3<3

Tummy tingling GOOD "Autumn of Secrets." by Mariella Hunt

Listening To: "Rangers." by A Fine Frenzy
What I am doing: Comtemplating on revamping my blog.
What I am watching: Walker Texas Ranger (hm that's interesting, I'm listening to a song about rangers. LOL I just noticed that.)Mood: Good, happy, and creative.
ANYWHO!
Onto my bloggie blog blog post. XD


One of my fave projects so far!


"Autumn of Secrets"

by MariellaHunt
Book: General Fiction, Romance, Paranormal
"This wishing well really did work. For years, the neighborhood waited, each hoping the other would take the tragic wish. Then Olivia moved in."

"Some wishing wells really do work. The one down the street obviously did.

The well granted wishes three ways---perfectly, then oddly, and then tragically. The neighborhood had been stuck for years, waiting for the tragic wish to be made. That way they could continue with the other two. But none of them were going to make the tragic wish.

To their eyes, newbies were the perfect chance to get it done. They didn't say a thing about it. It was amazing, all the problems that greed unleashed.

And look where Olivia wound up, for trying to solve them."


All I can say this WOWIE about this read. I highly reccomend it! Or I wouldn't be dedicating this post to it! It's such an AUH-MAZING read! It keeps you on the edge of your seat the whole way. And the Romance, woo buddy buddy! Talk about tummy tingling GOODNESS!! My kind of BOOK!!! I'm ALL about the ROMANCE!

Here's my offical comment on inkpop.com XD

OH WOW. I lost sleep over this read! I read it all last night, finished it around 4 this morning. lol. I bout fell asleep in church! lol.
MAN word to express how I feel about this epic read! Sheesh! lol. Well two words will pretty explain it.
LOVE-IT
I am like obsessed with this. Especially, of Ian. ;) I fell in love with these characters and the plot is so divine and exqusite. I dreampt about this!! And that's saying something! And I haven't got a good romance tummy tingle reading moment in GOD knows how long, but the chapter where Olivia and Ian kiss, wooooo MAJOR Tummy tingle! It actually brought tears to my eyes.

My only thing that I think you could work on is the description of the characters. I'm unsure of how Olvia looks, apart from her having brown hair. And I caught a little error in early chapter then next to the last, in the beginning you say Ian had blue eyes then when he got posesses you said he had brown that turned into a light blue.
But what's is editing good for?! I know you'll smooth this baby out and it will be PERFECT! Honestly, it is perfect aside from little errors. Honestly, who doesn't have errors??? I know I do!

Please please *gets on knees to beg unrelentlessly* UPDATE SOON!!!

PICKED! XD

AMAZING!!!

With lots of love, Kristia S.<3<3<3
God Bless<3<3<3
Well got to go. I'm off to write a little, hopefully. *crosses fingers* I haven't been able to stick to writing much lately, just brainstorming and making covers. :/ It's really depressing.
 
Love all of you!!!!
WOOHOO over five hundred page views! I'm pretty popular!!!!
Oh yeah me got a new cell phone! I LOVE IT! (I'm going to dedicate a whole post to it sometime. Maybe tonight. I don't know. lol)
Well honestly I have a good bit of LIFE news. So I'll add it to that post. :D Gots some good news concerning school for me. :D

With lots of love, Kristia S.

Coming Sometime to Inkpop.com! "Invisible Heart." by Kristia S.

Brief description, it might change multiple times more.
Book Jacket that I have made.

Short Story (for now, it might turn into a novel.): Science fiction/fantasy, romance, adventure,

Tagline: "Being lead to a enchanted land by a talking cat…okay. But discovering The Sprite Lord wants to eat her heart…major mental break down for Aly.”

Pitch: When Aly’s mom goes missing, her world gets turned inside out--literally. If finding a note telling her not to call the police and many other pointless things, isn’t weird enough. It gets even weirder when a tiny talking black cat follows her home after school.
He tells for her to follow him, and he’d guaranteed it’d give her answers to her mother’s disappearance. For that, her very own mother sent him there to lead her onto the path where her mother will eventually find her.
Figuring she was either on the edge of lunacy or dreaming, she follows the cat to an abandoned train station. Where she stumbles into a doorway, walking into a place that smells pure and so beautiful that it made her head spin.
She was in another world…
The cat isn’t there anymore, so she goes off on her own and runs into a group of men. Oddly only one of them can see her…Prince Malachi Larchwood.
From there on the two goes on a journey of betrayal, companionship, saving, discovering, love, and magic.
Oh yeah, his father wants to devour her heart.
And Malachi feels obligated to take her to him.
Will he?

I've been having multiple dreams about a concept for this book, for months now. I mean literally, I would have a partcial dream and then a few weeks to a couple months I would dream it again, taking off where I woke up at in the dream. It's pretty interesting, the main things I remember vividly is a very HOTT blonde guy and this water dragon that I'm riding and fall off into the river. Yeah kind of turns into a nightmare when I begin to drown. BUT, the pretty guy saves me. XD So at this point, I begin to drool, where I get mouth to mouth by him. XD *drool*
Well, I haven't exactly came up with a total plot as of yet. I've got some key scenes planned out, and a partcial ending. The world is almost figured out, like magic stones that can make a campfire, tree hamocks, healing, and ect... A evil king called "The Sprite Lord." he eats the hearts of Harlem women, so he can absorb their magical souls to make him stronger. He has a son--which is Mr. Blondie. But he isn't exactly his son, because he's human. The Sprite kingdom is filled with these people who look human, other than the pointy ears, black eyes (sometimes white), pointy teeth, and awkwardly colored hair. And they have extreme strenght, sense of smell, and agility.
YEAH, still working on it. I might not begin to write this anytime soon. Considering, I don't know really where to begin the story.
It might be a novel, but I'm going to approach it as a short story right now.
I'm also fusing this story with a story I was working on in ninth grade, that I gave up on. So some of my past writing aspect will be within it's contours. XD
Me excited!

Let me know what you guys think of this so far!!!

With lots of love, Kristia S.<3<3<3

DUDE! CHECK THIS MIGHTLY FINE READ!!! "RunneЯ." by Shiftermover0308


http://www.inkpop.com/projects/80481/runne-/


RunneЯ

by shiftermover0308
Book: Adventure, Romance, Science Fiction/Fantasy

All you can do is Run.

Michael used to be an ordinary girl. That is until the Mars mission brought a worldwide epidemic with its return. The Infection is coming, and the only thing that can stop it is still up in space.
Her mother was one of the first, and there’s no guarantee that her father will be one of the last to be taken by the Infection.

She is a Runner, sent from city to city, stealing from the Infected as she tries to blend in and avoid discovery. But things go awry on her next mission, after bringing home a rogue human named Sanders, Mikie must prepare for another run to the city. Only this time, she’s accompanied by her best friend, Darren, and… Sanders.

Upon arriving in the Infected city, Michael meets Zane, an Infected with a heart. And he wants to make a deal. If he reveals the secret of the Freeze – the only known cure of the Infection – she must promise him a night in return. And a promise by the Infected is unbreakable.

Will she risk it all to gain the cure, or will Michael find herself on the run again?

This is like one of the best projects I have EVER read on inkpop.com. Not just because it's by my inkie bestie Hannah. But this is a work of genius! It's a attention grabber from the start!
I'm at the loss of words to tell you guys at how impressed I am by this project! And that doesn't happen much concerning me, I have a big mouth. LOL.

SERIOUSLY! GO READ IT!!!! You won't regret it!!!

 I have stumbled upon an awesome reading discovery! Through doing a promo thread on inkpop.com for my friend Hannah's "Resistance." I'm currently doing some volunteering swaps for her, to keep her rank up, so she'll be in the top five in the next round. :D
I agreed to swap with the first three people who replied to my thread. And Adish is first up! I got sucked into it's black hole of Mytics! lol. Very detailed work that gives you vivid imagery and feel. It has unique names and a out of this world plot. A promising read that'll make it big someday! I forsee it!! This project needs more attention brought to it!!



Here's the info.


Mystic Academy - The Infinite ...

by Adish
Book: Adventure, Mystery, Science Fiction/Fantasy

Four thousand years into a war-torn future, mankind forges its existence in space, locked in an epic battle for survival against the malicious, alien Destroyers.

Thousands of years into the future, humanity is brutally opposed by the merciless alien race, the Destroyers. But, with Earth left a barren wasteland after Judgment Day, the only hope for the galaxy seems to be the magically gifted Mystics.

Now, Mystics are hunted and relentlessly forced to join the Ranker program, an elite military brigade whose sole purpose is Destroyer termination. With their population dwindling, more and more Mystics cower in fear, hiding and trying to preserve the last of their once proud race. But, nevertheless, all Mystics are damned to Mystic Academy, no ifs, ands, or buts about it.

Treachery. Exploitation. Abuse. Experimentation. Death.

These are the obstacles placed before the students of Mystic Academy. This is their inescapable fate. This is their everyday life.

And now, the Mystic Dean Stark soon discovers he’s not the only one loathing his race's way of life either. Transferring and quickly becoming involved with the anti-Ranker organization, Phantom, hidden deep within the school, Dean discovers a whole other side to his people. A horrible, yet extraordinary side even he’s tempted to join.

Falling For History-A Short Story that may begin a series of history romances.

 Mood: Tired/Creative (Being creative resolves me to not got to sleep! I don't want to lose my creativity!)
What I am doing: Writing Chapter Four for "3 Divided By Love."
Current cover art in inkpop.com
Cover model: Hilary Duff as Bree.

This short-story has been getting a good bit of attention in it's few days of being submitted to inkpop. I'm approaching this as a short story, but it just may turn into a novella or Falling For History novel collections. I have some more in mind to write after this one. But I will not be too serious about these tales, or have the desire to get them published. These tales are mainly for fun to write. :D But, you never know it might turn into something serious later on. However, I wanted to start posting something on inkpop to quench the thirst of my readers. Where I have decided to only post the first fifty pages of my books I desire to publish one day. I'm taking MAJOR precautions in doing so.
So "Falling For History." is a pretty fast progressed short story I am writing as of now. It's based in Egypt and it's a romance. I strictly write romance so for you guys to know. :D If you're wondering.
I have always loved egypt ever since I had a pathetic obsession with the anime Yu-Gi-Oh from the ages 12-14, it was based on a egyptian Pharaoh named Atim who was the alternate personality of Yugi. ANYWAYS, off the embarrassing subject of my pitiful obsession with anime back in the day! LOL. So from then to now it's quirked an interest for Egypt with me. I've always wanted to write a story based in Egypt! Also Prince of Persia and a egytpian documentary the other day also helped to inspire it too. :D
Thus "Falling For History." is born! And it's ranks is climbing--WELL.

Here's the info and links.

"Bree never thought she would fall for the history of Egypt. Especially, when she discovers she fell for an ancient Egyptian Prince named Chisisi."
  Bree Cuttingham went to Cairo Egypt on a gradational school field trip with her class. She runs upon a tablet about a unknown Prince that disappeared when he was nineteen— that strikes an interest in her, especially when she sees a necklace found alongside the tablet, a necklace identical to her own.

After befriending a tour guide/taxi driver Shadi. She is taken to her hotel. But when she receives a text message from her grandmother saying, “Get out of there, Bree. Come home. That tablet is nothing but trouble.”

The street she stood on begins to shake then opens up underneath her, swallowing her up into the darkness.
Bree wakes up in the middle of the desert—mark that—a different time. Where she meets and falls desperately in love with an ancient Egyptian Prince named Chisisi.

Torn between staying with her true love in the ancient times and finding someway to get back to her own time 2010 where her family and friends live.

What will she choose?

But more importantly, will she be able to get back home?

Bree’s time traveling adventure will determine who is her one and only soul mate.

Publisher possibly interested in "Time With Seleste."!!!!!

Nicholas Sparks getting ready
to do his speech.

My Mom (Wanda) and me waiting for
Nicholas Sparks to show up.

My new books that I cannot wait to
sink my teeth into.
"Angel Star." by Jennifer Murgia
"The Pace." by Shelena Shorts
 Well I went to the book festival, mainly to go see Nicholas Sparks you know how I've been talking about in previous posts. Well we got there EARLY this morning so I can go to a workshop that'll help me writing my novel.

But as my Mom and me went through the whole thing after me going to that seminar about "Ten Stratgies To Writing Your Novel." which was AWESOME! I learned A LOT.
Well Mom and me were walking around getting free books, and bought a childrens book for my nephews I'm going to read to them. It's autographed by the author who is ONLY NINE YEARS OLD!!!
Well I went around looking at the other books they were advertising and autographing. Then I find this AWESOME looking table. A big poster with a hour glass on it that said "Best Selling "The Pace." by Shelena Shorts." and it had cob webs and all that awesome halloween stuff. The girl who wrote the book is gorgeous and SO NICE AND SWEET! We started talking and I bought two autographed books from them. "The Pace." by Shelena Shorts and "Angel Star." by Jennifer Murgia. Then we start talking about books and what I'm interested in.
I say I'm a writer during our conversation.


The autograph from Shelena Shorts

Then a whole OTHER conversation started and all the sudden the woman (I think she owns the company, but I'm not certain.) said after I explained Time With Seleste a bit, "After you're finished. Send it to me and I'll check it out."
My eyes absolutely did this O O. And I say, "Really?"
And she says "Really. Just jot down your information and I'll check it out on inkpop within the month."
And that's how it went!!!!
It FEELS AWESOME TO HAVE A PUBLISHER INTERESTED!!!!!!

Sweet, sweet randomness, updates, books, vents and oh yeah I MIGHT BE MEETING NICHOLAS SPARKS!!!!!!

Mood: Excited, hyper, tired, happy, nervous and sorta ticked.
(Is it possible to have all those emotions at once?)
What I'm doing: Watching "The Golden Girls." blogging and checking email.
What I'm listening to: "Behind The Scenes." by Francesca Batistelli
(Yes, I multi-task like there's no tomorrow. Which includes listening to music, writing, and watching "The Golden Girls.")
What I am reading: Just got done reading six chapters of "The Last Song."

Oooookay. Woke up this morning from a nightmare (I've been nightmares like crazy lately. Eck.) This nightmare is still haunting me now, it was about my dog "Bow" going mad. That broke my heart, he's my baby.
Anyways, I called dibs on my Mom eariler this week before my sister Angie nabbed her to take her somewhere and be gone all weekend. I called dibs for her taking to my all time favorite stores. "Books A Million." and Wal-Mart. :D Yes, I'm aware that I'm a nerd. lol.
Well, I wanted to get me my first Nicholas Sparks book. I know I'm stupid to never read any of his genius works. However, I got "The Last Song." I loved the movie and balled my eyes out! So I thought I'd read the book and get the full perspective about it.

"The Last Song."
By Nicholas Sparks
Miley Cyrus SOOO does not fit Ronnie at all. I dislike Miley, I don't hate her exactly. I dislike the way she contradicts herself all the time. Have you guys seen her latest music video??? COME ON! She's suppose to be a Christian! Her panties? Grinding her dance director? She's not even out of Hannah Montana's contract yet! Sheesh! We'll be seeing Hannah Montaner little girl running around with booty panties around on the school grounds after she gets done! Eck. At least Hilary Duff had the decency to wait until she was like twenty before she started to turn skanky in clothing. I still like Hilary though, for some odd reason...
ANYWAYS! Got off subject there.
I go to check out and the girl asks if I got memberships card. I said "Yup, right here." me being a loser with being excited to use my silver card with the power of 20% discount.
Then I get "Sorry. Your membership expired last month."
This was my mouth. "O" One jaw dropping moment for me. I could have SWORN I just paid twenty dollars membership a few months ago! Now it's expired!
"Seriously?" I asked the girl.
She nods, "It won't be the full twenty dollars to renew it..." she assumes I'm going to renew it today, "It'll only be seventeen."
I wasn't planning on spending the whole fifty dollars my Mawmaw gave me today to buy a darn forsaken book and some groceries we missed getting the last time we were out. NO telling how much a speck of groceries costs these days and time. *rolls eyes* And I WAS NOT going to pay for another membership I wasn't going to get the full worth out of for another year! I'll tell you this as God as my witness. I only used that card probably twice or maybe three times at the most in this whole year! I barely get the chance to go to Books A Million. I usually find the books I read at Wal-Mart. So no WAY I was going to pay almost twenty dollars AGAIN only to no get it's full worth yet AGAIN.
"I don't have enough money on me today, sorry." I say looking in my wallet, "I need to get some groceries."
"Okay, but you will still get the ten percent discount today though." she says punching in the numbers, "You know who's coming to Civic Center next week right?" she looks at the back of The Last Song and smiles.
"YUP! That's the reason I got this book."
Yes, you heard right I'm going to meet the Nicholas Sparks!
"I took off the whole weekend for it!" the girl smiles.

Well I am SO EXCITED! Nicholas Sparks is like one of the most beloved authors and his accomplishments in being a sucessful author. I look up to him well in his achievements. But honestly, I've never read any of his books. I have seen the movies made out of them though, and adored them! The Notebook, A Walk To Remember and The Last Song. I am ashamed of myself that I have never picked up any of his books and read them. But now I am!
It would have been embarassing to say I love his books and he ends up asking what was my favorite part of "The Last Song." and I would be like "ehhh." I'd be ASHAMED!
Now I have a week to read it. lol.

Well I have an update on my novels!
Time With Seleste has a parcial proper smooth ending I have planned out. Chapter twenty five is almost done and I'll post it soon. Oh yeah I've edited my trailer to it too!
3 Divide Into Love is going through a title change. It may remain "Danielle's Diary of Match Making." I have currently four chapters written. My prologue has been beta read twice by two different AWESOME people. I'm not going to post it on inkpop until its well over 20,000 words and has been beta read throughly. So as of now, two people are the only ones that have seen any of it. 

Well thought I'd blog tonight. I haven't in a while. I seemingly, can't get into the habit of it. :/

Night all!

With lots of love, Kristia S.<3<3<3
God Bless<3<3<3

3 Hott Uncles Divide Into The Complicated Word L.O.V.E = New Book In Store!!

Just yesterday I thought up a new book plot! Yes you heard me right! I just started another book in one freaking day! I have the title, book cover, tagline, catagories, names, pitch and actor visuals!!!!


In order from the left. David Conrad as Arthur Blugrave--Tom Welling as Shane Blugrave--Matt Bomer as Cole Blugrave--A random baby off from google as Eli (still comtemplating a last name.) And Meaghan Jett Martin as Danielle Blugrave.

I got this idea when I was talking fantasy casting with my Grandmother. We were watching "Ghost Whisperer" and Jim aka David Conrad-I have the hugest crush on him! I said I would love to see him acting alongside Matt Bomer as brothers, because they could pass off as brothers! Then I saw a comercial about "Smallville" And saw Tom Welling aka Clark Kent, and then I added him to my fantasy brotherly love mix!
Then I was like "Hmmm...maybe I could write a book based on the fantasy casting!" So I got onto the idea of writing a YA novel about three sexy uncles taking care of a teenaged girl and little one year old brother. And that the girl would play a match maker for her uncles to find them their soul mates.
Well just read the info below!!


The offcial book cover.
 “3 Divide Into LOVE.”
Danielle’s Match Making Game
 Theme song: Love Games by Lady Gaga.
(Tagline)
“A teenaged niece, will play a match maker for her three hott single uncles—Let the love game begin!”

(Book:)
 General Fiction, Romance, Comedy, Adventure

(Pitch)
When Danielle and her little brother are orphaned. Their three very handsome and single uncles will step up to the plate of being their legal guardians.
The three will bring laughter, love and completion to Danielle’s home once again. And perhaps little bit of comedy with the three trying to change a one-year-old ornery boy, who likes to urinate on people for a chuckle.
Meanwhile, Danielle wallows in misery of losing her parents— however, until Danielle’s uncles’ pressures her to socialize with local teens in their new town.
Big no-no, she’s not happy about that!
Determined to get her uncles’ off her back and out of her business. She begins her little match making game to find them soul mates, and to keep them busy.
But Danielle’s social life suddenly becomes a little bit flirty when she meets a local boy—Bryson Jacobson. Danielle then thinks a social life might not be so bad… Then things get more complicated than she aimed for.

Will Danielle find her uncle’s soul mates?
Or will the uncles turn her little game right back on her?
Most importantly, will her uncles learn to properly change a diaper and manage to not get peed on?

 Yeah I'm going out of my comfort zone with realistic general fiction. I've never wrote a story that doesn't have supernatral dealings in it. So this is going to be exciting! I've already got 1,938 words wrote for the first chapter. The style is going to be approach differently too. I'm going to write some in diary entries from Danielle's point of view and then sync it to third person. It's something I'm looking forward to!!
Oh yeah...I took my middle name and named Danielle! I've always wanted to use the name in one of my books. But she is NOT based off of me what so ever! She's too girly to be me. lol.

Logan Leerman as Bryson Jacobson.
Meaghan Jett Martin as Danielle Blugrave.
"She wasn't looking for love.
But she finds it in a unlikely place..."

I will be posting it on inkpop when I either hit 10,000 words or 20,000. But I might wait until I'm done with the first draft of "Time With Seleste." I'm scared "3 Divide Into LOVE." might interfere with my creative flow for TWS.
Well hope you guys read when I do post!







With lots of love, Kristia S.<3

I HAD A DREAM!

This is me in my "professional" look.
No I'm not talking about the Martin Luther King Jr. speech. I literally had a dream about my novel in progress "Time With Seleste." opposed to the usual listen to a song and make a story out of it. No this time I had a very vivid dream! Talk about a Stephenie Meyer moment! haha.
Here's how it started.
It was May 17th 2010 (my eighteenth birthday to be exact) I had tossed and turned that whole night. Something was bothering me... Then around six o'clock in the morning--I remember this because I looked up at the clock just before I went back to sleep. It was as if I was living this vision, it was that vivid.
Joanna Garcia
Known for her role
as "Cheyenne Hart"
on the TV show "Reba"
I'm viewing from above at first, looking down on these two people. The girl was on the ground bleeding, while the boy was holding her listening intently to what she had to say. Then I'm snapped down to their perspective, I see the girl clearly she looked like the actress Joanna Garcia. The boy I couldn't see clearly, but I knew he was very good looking. Of course, this dream never indicated she was a time traveler though...that's something among a lot of other things I added. :D Then I was brought to another scene, viewed in her perspective. I was her! And I was beautiful like her as well (<-See Joanna Garcia to get what I mean).
(SPOILER coming up) All these people including me are on a boat, and we're going somewhere--no we were running from something and boat was the only way to get away. I turn to the boy I just seen in the previous scene, and I hug him and whisper "I love you." And I focus in on a freckle that was on his neck. Then I turn and run off the deck into icy frigid water. Total blackness in that point of view...
Jackson Rathbone
Well knowingly as
"Jasper Hale"
 in The Twilight Saga.
I'm snapped into--unfortunately a guy's point of view. Eck. And come to my realization the guy looks like my cousin Josh (In my novel he remains Josh but I change his image to Jackson Rathbone and not my cousin.) And he's talking about senseless things, you know how dreams gets. *rolls eyes* Another perspective was shifted to the boy who I name Darien in my novel. He's holding the girl in his arms, seemingly to be scared to death of her condition. She was drenching wet and pale, and when she comes to. They share a tiny passionate kiss, but Darien afterwards storms off angry at her for what she had done. The girl, all she was thinking was that Darien was safe. Because she knew if she didn't do what she did, he would have jumped in and not have came back at all. So she did something to save a guy she loved most. The dream ended there.
I woke up around seven that morning, astonished and confused at why I had that dream. It was amazingly vivid and interest capturing. I took it as a sign from God that it could be molded into a book. :D And he wanted me to, if not he wouldn't have blessed me with that honest to God dream! Nevertheless, it took me my whole birthday-day to think of plot that would be molded from that dream.
I first began trying to picture my characters. like I always do. I knew most definitely there would be the boy and girl that cared deeply for each other, it didn't take long for me to come up with their names. : )
The boy would be named Darien Marks (thinking of my old favorite anime show I use to watch when I was five.  "Sailor Moon." *blushes* I'm a sucker for Tuxedo Mask character, his name was Darien.) 
And my instinct told me to base his looks off from the actor on "The Vampire Diaries" Steven R. McQueen. He just fits Darien, he's good looking but not overly handsome, just right. :)
Steven R. McQueen
Known as the Grandson
of Steve McQueen.
And also known for the role
"Jeremy Gilbert"
On The CW's
The Vampire Diaries.
And for my girl it took me no time to think up a name for her "Celeste" but I wanted to change the "C" to an "S". Because for some odd reason when I started typing out "Celeste" I kept pronouncing it as "Chelsea" in my head, every time I seen the "C", that got on my nerves so badly. So Seleste was born! Also, I thought it would make it unique looking. : D. At first I went through so many actresses to picture as my Seleste. I didn't want to use Joanna Garcia, where she's doesn't look like a teenager anymore. I wanted a teenager or at least one that appears to be. Yes, Joanna is quiet pretty and talented. But with how I do with casting my characters in my head, I want them pretty close to the actual ages. (Just in case there would be a movie that could be made. ;) Come on every author thinks like that at some point. lol) So I went through, Blake Lively, Emily Osment and finally I stuck with Ashley Benson. But still...none of them fit the Seleste I had in mind. She's suppose to tiny like 5'2 barely making it over being a midget, skinny and really pretty with piercing dark blue eyes. In my dream, the first scene she was blonde, but in the next she was chocolate brown. I'm not too keen on having Seleste as a blonde, I don't want people getting the idea of Seleste being based off of me. (Even though I have considered it. But makes me sick to even think of writing about myself into a novel. So that's why I don't.)
Lucy Hale
Known as "Aria"
On the ABC Family's
Pretty Little Liars
So just recently I just re casted Seleste in my mind, and the vision of the actress has made my writing flow A LOT smoother. So another "Pretty Little Liars"'s actress became my Seleste Worthington! Lucy Hale! There's a very thin line of finding someone that can either go Tom Boy-ish or Girly. And Seleste is stuck between both, she's be happy in just a t-shirt and jeans, but she also desires the less girly fashion labels. But she cannot afford them to even dress like she desires, so she makes do with what she can get and is comfortable with it. I think Lucy can portray Seleste to a T, she's on that thin line of being girly and not girly. Also she's very tiny, short and beautiful! And another plus! Her and Steven would make an absolute adorable couple!
By right around four in the afternoon, I came up with the idea of Seleste being a time traveler. I thought it'd be way different from what I have been writing. So this is new waters to me. However, I can thank Doctor Who for the inspiration of the time traveling thing too. ;) I'm a Doctor Who-ser!
"Time With Seleste"
(Book cover.)
I rate it
PG 13
Mild mature language,
and sexual suggestions.
Are mentioned, but nothing
in detail.
The title for my novel came like the snap of my fingers! "Time With Seleste." It's so catchy and I can picture it on the books shelves!
So around ten that night I started out my novel, the plot came so easily to me like it was part of my very soul. Chapter One was originally going to be my Preface, but I went over board and wrote too much for it to be, so turned it into a chapter. For the next five to seven days I started to break my neck to get the word count up to ten thousand so people on inkpop can read it! I mainly was posting for my personal friends at home, for them to read it and see what they thought. Then it became a hit-- at first-- on inkpop! I couldn't believe it! It went from the two thousands rank to the five hundreds in the manner of hours! I was so astonished! So I started posting for my fans on inkpop as well.
I really have a confidence that this book can make it somewhere if people gave it a chance. Yes I know my grammar is horrible, but this is my first draft and I'm not going to proofread until the WHOLE story is written. For some reason if I start editing in the middle of writing a story, it just burns me out and I don't want to continue it. Same goes with outlining, so I'm doing this free of any binds! And it's refreshing! "Time With Seleste" is one of the most easy written projects I have begun, because the story is coming to me like flashes of lighting! I know God's has got something to do with it! He must be wanting me to write this story! I am dedicating my novel to this scripture -> "Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve to others, faithfully administering God's grace in its various forms." -1 Peter 4:10. Maybe I can find someway for my book to speak in some Godly way, I'm still unsure of how that could be. But maybe it'll just happen on it's own, so I'm not going to concentrate on finding the "form" perhaps God will send it my way in an epiphany. : )
I know I'll be able to finish this in no time! I've already planned that I'm going to draft it out seven times. And I'm going to hire a freelance editor (or possibly a English professor) at my soon to be college, I'll be starting at in the spring.
I hope I can get this on book shelves someday! I'm working so hard on this, and it's became my dream.
Hope you guys read and pick it!

Check out my official website for me and my books! - > http://wix.com/KrisTeeAuh/KristiaS
And also just click my "Time With Seleste" book cover in the side bar to the left of you. And it'll take you straight to my novel on inkpop! The word count is currently 85.028 and I'm only on my twenty-second chapter! I've barely skimmed the top! I'm planning on sixty to seventy chapters in all!

Hope you guys take interest and read my dream!

With lots of love, Kristia S.<3
