New Blog Template

Hey there everyone,

I thought I would post as seen as I haven't in quite some time now, I have been staying clear of this blog for only one reason, and that reason is... I hate the template I have for it.

I am dying to get a new one, a personal one, one I have made myself but there is a huge problem with this. I basically don't know how to create a blogger template, I am trying so hard to check out the websites and youtube videos but nothing is straight forward enough for me to follow.

So, give me some time and give me some patience and then hopefully I'll be able to create a wonderful template for this blog, then I'll be posting like crazy. After all, I have a lot of information to update on you, especially the stories I am writing on Wattpad and then of course you have the stories I'm reading on there as well, I would love to tell you about that.

Especially one of them, it's called A Beautiful Torment and it is actually amazing, there is almost nothing wrong with it. I say almost because there are a couple spelling mistakes, but then again she's only human. Even with the bare minimum of spelling mistakes the story is a best-seller in my eye, I really do hope that AuRevoir Simone does get scouted and I hope one day she can publish her book.

So many people would adore the story line and everything about it, it's just a beautiful book.

But perhaps once it's finished I'll write a book review about it on here. That would be nice wouldn't it, writing book reviews for people on Wattpad on this site. That way I would be promoting their work and also I could gain some followers.

Either way, I'll do my best to keep you updated and I'll speak to you soon.

I'm Back

Yes, unfortunately I am back with vengeance.

I have given the blog a little make-over which isn't finished quite yet but shall be done soon. I will also be working on updating this blog once a week, I know I'm trying to work myself into the ground here, it's stupid.

I have given some of my favourite stories pages and shall be working on them in time, so don't panic I will be back with information and images instead of empty pages.

I will also be altering little bits and pieces and giving you links, these links will link you not only with myself but my work. I will transport you to a whole new world, a place where my stories become reality.

I hope you enjoy and keep your eyes peeled.

You don't want to miss this, things have only just begun.

See you soon.

STORY INFO: General Story Update

I have been saying this a little too much lately, I have been neglecting this blog and I'm disappointed with myself for doing so. I should be updating you on every little inch of my stories, yet here I am apologizing again because I've neglected it.

I have got good news.

2 of my stories have been doing all right on Wattpad now, and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it will only get better. The two stories are called Dreams of the Masquerade and Resident Evil: Dead Awakening two very different stories but both attracting a bit of attention, I've been struggling quite a bit with updates recently due to University interviews and other nicnac's that come with getting into University, for example earning the correct grades to get into it in the first place. But don't think I've forgotten about you, I haven't I can promise you that.

I have on the other hand been working through some writer's block issues, and other typical troubles and am now going to do my best to dedicate as much of my free time as I can spare to working on my stories, I have quite a few now and I would like to get them as updates as I can.

I have been setting myself quite a few targets for writing lately and I'm hoping that I'll be able to fit it in and get it done.

These are my targets, and please try now to laugh too much.

I want to write for at least 20 minutes a day, if possible. To try and work on all stories that I have, that need updating.

Priorities, I need to decide which of my stories I will be most dedicated to and why. After all, these will be the ones getting my full attention.

Always check my old stories, I have quite a few old stories that need re-writing and even some fan dictions that I would love to write up again, yet I need to decide when to do and why.

How many chapters do I want to get all of my stories to before working forward? I need to know exactly how many chapters each of my stories are going to have before I update any more. I don't want to push myself ahead with one story and not the other.

And last but not least, keep writing down ideas. My head is buzzing with ideas 24/7 lately and I need to make sure I write them down so I can write the stories up at a later date. They are good and have a lot of potential.

So basically everyone, wish me luck. I think this may either be complete hell or absolute heaven. Who knows.

Either way, I am going to leave you here, but I will show you my current book covers for my stories that are my favourites at the moment. Comment if you like, or maybe even follow.

Just in case you don't believe me, I have designed both covers and am still considering changes. So please let me know what you think.

STORY INFO: General Story Update

Okay, It's been a while I can admit that, and I apologize.

Now let's get straight down to the point, as you know I adore Wattpad and everything about it, it's just a generally amazing website and considering all of the story websites I'm signed up to, I can honestly say it's the best one so far.

I have been updating somewhat recently but mainly on one story, and if you've been keeping an eye on it then you'll know that it's the Resident Evil: Dead Awakening story. I am completely obsessed with Resident Evil at the moment so that's why this random Fan Fiction has come out of nowhere, and of course the game came out somewhat recently.

I have been working on some new book covers as well, and I'd like to post them and get some feedback from you guys. Well, that is if you even look at this post and bother to read it.

It's a rare thing, but I'm sure someone will read it.

Anyway, here are the pictures. Remember, I want your honest opinion.

So everyone take a browse, see if you really like any of them and let me know what you think.

Update's shall be coming soon for any new chapter updates and websites I'm signed to, check out my stories on Wattpad as it's my main site for posting them.

STORY INFO: Resident Evil

Recently I have been updating this story, I am only on chapter four at the moment but the story is coming along nicely and I seem to be able to write the chapters quite quickly with barely any mistakes, which I'm quite proud of. (I do have a proof-reader, his name is Lewis Ebsworth aka my boyfriend) He usually doesn't miss anything, but he does have a tendency to forgot some.

Any way, I'm loving this story at the moment and have even managed to come up with an ending which is brilliant. I can almost never write endings, so this is a first for me.
I would love for some of you to possibly read the story and maybe even give me feedback because I would adore to enter the Watty Awards 2013 only downside is though, that you really should have more readers and such. I don't have that right now, so I'm doing my best to promote myself in every way. I'm even going to the extent of making my own Facebook Page you'll find the link at the end of this post.

I guess what I'm trying to say here is, I would love to have your support because honestly it feels like I'm not really getting any when I feel like I need it the most. This sounds somewhat needy of me, I understand that. But writers don't get any where without a little help from their friends, and I would like my friends to be the ones online. This is because most of my real life friends don't actually enjoy reading stories, or they aren't into a specific type of story. Which is perhaps the kind I like to write.

Let me know personally if you are here to help, it would be very much appreciated.

If you see this: RE:DA it is short for Resident Evil: Dead Awakening.
It'll just be a quicker and easier way to write it down, especially when writing a new blog post. I will try to update you as much as possible and I will always post to let you know when I have edited a story or even created a new book cover, which is usually the main part that I would like advice on.

Come on Blogger prove to me you are better than any other blog site.

P.S. I am so sorry that some pictures have gone missing, it's due to my Blogger being linked with Google Chrome account and now they're gone for ever. Which is a bit annoying as you can imagine, I just hope that can forgive me and I'll try and find out a way to fix the problem.

P.P.S. I really hope you enjoy the blog and the updates.

STOR INFO: Resident Evil - Fan Fiction

Yes, that is right. I am writing a Resident Evil fan fiction story.

(Yay! For Resident Evil. Hope you're all playing the new game Resident Evil 6, on XBOX of course)

Well to be honest  you should be happy I'm even writing again, it's been way too long and honestly it's been painful but recently life has been getting back on track and things seem to finally be looking up. Maybe all this hard work is paying off.

Any way I'm going way off track here, back to the point at hand. I am writing a Resident Evil fan fiction which will include a romance between my main character and Chris Redfield and I will also be including some brutal murders and sneaky twists and turns for Leon S Kennedy. As seen as these two are the main characters I thought it would be best to have it loosely based around these two.

It will of course be from my characters point of view and hopefully you'll like it, I'll do my best to let you know when I'm working on a new chapter or I've uploaded a new chapter. (I'll add the link as well, just in case)

So that's everything, and here is my book cover for it, what do we think people is this a yay or nay?!

I'm So Sorry

I honestly can't believe it, I have been barely on this for god knows how long now. I really should start paying more attention to this blog.

It was one of the few blogs that people actually read, which was a surprise to me and my readers, I didn't expect this blog to get anywhere that's why.

I guess what I'm saying is I'm sorry and I really need to start updating this more, but then again I also need to start writing more again.

I enjoy it too much to just stop!
