The Internet Officially Hates My Guts! HURRAY!

Soooooooooooo.... the internet has been disabled.

Loverly, ain't it?!

Yeah, I was very sad, and shed a little ( a lot.... ) of tears. I no can has cheeseburger! :'( Okay, a little random, I know - but, hey, that's what makes me so damn awesome.

So, yeah, anyway - internet crashed, me no can has cheeseburger, and it sucked. But, well, on the plus side - I'm watching Jeff Dunham ( he is kind of amazing ). He's hysterical. I'm literally laughing so hard I cannot breathe, my eyes are tearing up - you know how it goes. I have a headache from laughing so much.

So, sorry I haven't posted, well, anything. = )

But I will. Eventually. Yay. Right? Right!

I AM LION, HEAR ME ROAR! - *meow*

Yeah, if you just read that title and went, "Wow. This chick is off her rocker!" than that's okay. : ) I was just thinking of how I'm not really taken seriously as a writer because of my age.

And, well, it kinda pisses me off. You know?

So, yeah, it sucks. And the best part? No matter how good I write, the people who don't take me seriously still will tear me down. So, ya know what I'm gunna do?

Say, "SCREW YOU!" and write the way I want to.

Because if you can't please yourself with your own writing -

then how will you ever please others?

People can read into what you find your passion to be and what you don't. If you aren't passionate about what you write, then don't write it. If your own topic doesn't interest you, then it won't be as AH-MAZING as something that does interest you.

Like me. I was writing a book that stopped being my passion after about one-hundred-and-something pages in. What I originally thought I was going to write, I didn't, because I wasn't sure that (if in the book-market) it would sell. So I wrote something that I thought would sell, and I got bored with it because it wasn't me - it was like someone was manipulating my words, my writing. There was something not me about it.

My most trusted and beloved proof-reader (the only one who gave me bad feedback as well as good - who told me the truth if it needed work instead of just saying "Oh, yeah, it's amazing!" when really it wasn't) told me that it just didn't seem like my heart and soul was really into the book anymore.

And, you know what?

HE WAS RIGHT!

I wasn't into it anymore. I was only writing what I thought EVERYONE ELSE would like when, really, the only person's approval I needed was my own.

I might not be an adult, but, you know what?

If you are a real author in your soul

YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE.

Well, NOT right.

Wanna know why? Well, if ya don't - too bad. If you do, hurray! ( I know we'll be great friends! :D )

Anywho, I just can't seem to get those creative juices flowing, ya know? Soooooooo, I've decided to post some of my stuff on this blog for the whole (probably) TWO PEOPLE who actually go to my sight ( and I just KNOW and bet my soul on it that one of 'em's my mom ((wow, I feel like a DORK!)) )

Anyway, back on track. Either today or tomorrow I'll be posting some of my book that is a (major) work-in-progress. So, yeah. Hope ya have a good week and keep outta trouble! Luv my whole audience of 2 people (hey, I'm proud of those 2 people! pat yourself on 'da back!)

- M. Renee (ThatWriterChick)

PS - The Wizard of Oz IS kool! And if people think otherwise then they either A) have major issues or B) can't handle the AWESOMENESS and therefore cannot believe in said awesomeness. BYYYE!!! : )

City of Fallen Angels, by Cassandra Clare

Although I did like it, it just.... wasn't the same, you know? And, don't get me wrong - I LOVE this series - be Val is defeated soooo.... what's the point in the continuing of this series? I thought the whole big deal was taking him down and, well, he's DOWN. So I guess I just don't get it. Anyway, I really wanted to see more of Clary's POV, Jace's, and the rest of the cast instead of just focused mostly on Simon. I mean, I think Simon is hysterical, but a whole book about him? Personally, if you're going to write a whole book in his POV when it wasn't like that before? Probably best to do a sort of spin-off series or book, instead of changing the orignal series, you know?

But, with that aside, I thought it was pretty good. Not my favorite of all the books, but it was okay. I felt kind of disappointed, actually, because I'd been waiting to get my hands on this frikin book for about two months, and couldn't find it. Any. Where! And then, I finally found it, and it was so pretty! Love at first sight!

But, well, you know what they say.... Never judge a book by its cover.

So, yeah, I'm sorry, I was A LOT of disappointed hopes. When it was over, I felt like crying. I get it, I'm being a little over the top, but I was all, "Yeah! I FINALLY got this book!" and then it was.... that. I don't know, it wasn't that great. And I'm a big fan of Clare's, I've read the rest of the series and her Infernal Devices spin-off series, too. It was a real let-down.

And the rest of the book? Well, it was basically all Clary, really. And Jace. And Clary, and Jace. And Clary and Jace making out. And Clary and Jace getting naked. And Jace trying to kill her. And Clary and Jace making out.... again.

I'm sorry, I want some POV from the other characters, thank you very much. I'm not saying the book was crappy, okay? I'm saying.... I expected more!

But anyway, I've gotta go. Staying up 'til 2 AM is not doing anything for me.... even though I just got up from taking a five-hour cat-nap a little bit ago.... especially since I was feeling like utter shit yesterday.

So, till next time!
