I'm spending a lot less time here on LJ now that school has started partially because I'm attempting to actually have a social life. Well, not really since only like two people invite me to hang out, but yeah. Anyways, I'm doing a flist cut because I don't feel like taking as much time to read entries. Most of the people I'm cutting haven't been on since the beginning of August or even longer so no one have a heart attack. Others I'm cutting because I don't think I've ever gotten a comment from you. Since I do like to take time to comment on your journals I feel like it's only fair to have that in return, but maybe I'm just a little selfish. I like comments lol I digress. If you are on the list below and see this post PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE remove me from your flist too unless you have some amazing reason why I should add you back. But it'll have to be a phenomenal reason.

I am doing a f-list cut. Some because they don't post anymore, others because we never really communicate through comments at all. And yeah, a few because I just don't feel like reading their posts, I can't connect at all and that doesn't work for me. Sorry, if you are on this list and see this post PLEASE remove me from your flist too. Mostly because I am OCD and the huge list of journals that are no longer mutual friends drives me crazy.

My new layout is kind of scaring me. Can any of you suggest where I can find a better one? I'm looking for something winter-y, but not specific to a holiday.

Thanks.

Thanks to everyone who answered my question about icons! :D

Quick question, where do all of you get your icons?

I just noticed that the journal entires that non-friends can read are rather boring so I thought I would try and post something more interesting!  Unfortunately I can't think of anything to say!  So if you are reading this and you aren't on my friend list, I would LOVE for you to add me because the more the merrier right?  I don't always think that, but at the moment it sounds pretty good.  I get bored a lot and post crazy stuff, sometimes I complain about people or bugs or whatever is annoying me at the moment, I can be depressing at times but you don't have to read those, and I tend to write long posts but understand that it is hard to get yourself to read them so I try to refrain myself from doing that.  It doesn't always work.  There is probably no reason for me to write this since I don't think there are many people looking at my journal who aren't on my friends list, but just in case I suppose.

    "I wouldn't touch that if I were you."
    "What?" she looked at me like I was crazy, which I am, but that really isn't the point right now, I was being serious.
     "I wouldn't touch that if I were you," I repeated myself, I didn't want anything on my conscience, I already had enough to keep me up at night.
     She snort and sneered, "What? This?" And she leaned over and touched the lump laying on my desk.
     SLURP!!!  The lump opened up its large, ghastly-smelling mouth and gobbled her right up.  I just sighed and shook my head, glaring at that spot on my desk.
      "I TOLD you not to touch it."

Ok, I have taken in all of the suggestions from last time and edited my prologue.  If you wish I would love it if you read this new version to see if it is any better.

Summary: Jemima, a thirteen year old girl, was abandoned by her mother in the care of her greedy and perverse uncle when she was 9 and life has steadily gotten worse.  Now, when she comes across the chance to escape this life, another complication comes along in the form of a stranger.  She has never met this man in her life,  yet this stranger has come to take the only thing she has that is her own, her life.  And Jemima can't/won't let this happen, not if she can help it!
Rating: PG-13 I suppose, a bit of violence and any sexuality is only suggested, and maybe language in some parts
Feedback: Pretty much anything actually, but if it isn't too boring for all of you, I need some help on grammar, especially on where I am suppose to start new paragraphs (dialogue).  But I don't want comments limited on that, I would appreciate any sort of suggestions like parts that don't make sense, anything to make my writing better.  If you read my first version I would like it if you would see if I edited parts correctly.
Enjoy!

Prologue

 

I was up until about midnight last night reading Shevraeth of Marloven Hess, I loved it!  I can't believe I hadn't taken the time to read it before yesterday!  Does anyone know if Ms, Smith plans on publishing the story sometime in the near future?
