Um... about a month or so.
I'd like to have an excuse like, "I'm super busy!" or "Soooo much time taken up with that stupid AP World History assignment!" or something, but truth is.... I forgot.
I kind of forgot I even had a blog, and when I went back here I found out I now have seventeen followers. No idea how that happened...
But, I figured I might as well share the one important piece of news I have-- Civilized Sabotage: The Fame is now up on inkpop.
It's the sequel to my first book, and you can click HERE to read it! It's in the 1000s in terms of rank, which really stinks. I really only have a few fans, divided up as so-
Approximately three on inkpop
One on Teen Ink
One in real life.
Not exactly what I'd call impressive.
Also, my book is sadly listed under "General Fiction books" and "Romance books." I seriously think they should call it "Realistic Fiction" because that makes it sound a lot less lame than "General" which just sounds like "Boring." And besides, Romance was the closest I could get to any of the other categories- Dystopian? Fantasy? Sci-Fi? Paranormal? Vampire Book? I nearly screamed when I saw that they actually made that a genre of it's own. So sad.
Back when inkpop was it's normal self, and I released the first book, it was listed under General Fiction, Romance, and Comedy, because I think the book has its funny moments. But they took comedy off the list to replace it with vampires. That's just depressing.
Okay, I'm rambling about stuff NOBODY cares about.
Um.... well. I guess that's all I have to say.
WAIT. No, it's not!
Okay, so I saw the Harry Potter movie! Yay! It was really awesome! I thought it was pretty accurate to the books, besides they messed up a certain death (don't want to include spoilers for any potential future fans!) and a certain kiss (which was adorable anyway!). But I will say that I definitely approved of the way that Neville said, "Anybody seen Luna?" "No, why?" "I love her. Thought I might as well tell her now!" I realize that is totally NOT word for word... and I know that totally never happened in the book, and Neville gets married to Hannah Abbot and Luna gets married to some Lysander guy, but hey, I had been rooting for that relationship the whole time. :)
Annddddddd, I got early admission to Pottermore! Sadly, I couldn't do the clue thing until the sixth day, so I'll be getting in during the second or third week of September :(
Soooooo. That's it for now, I guess.
OH, one more thing! I found out about this amaaaaaazing band called He is We! Anybody else ever listen to their music? Just wondering. :)
This was the most random blog post ever.
I know what you mean! When you're not thinking about the blog, you kind of forget about it. I had neglected mine for a bit and gave it a facelift when I came back.
ReplyDeleteI agree that the HP movie was awesome. I had a few problems with it, and it wasn't my favorite movie, but it was just such an awesome experience seeing it at the premiere, all dressed up with all the crazy fans. Which death were you talking about that they messed up? Honestly, in this movie, they messed up almost every death. But Voldemort's was the worst. He was supposed to be dead on the ground like any other human. I actually loved the movie version of the kiss, but I missed Harry being like.. "Is this the moment?" Neville looking for Luna was so sweet. But was that canon? Because they don't end up together. Yeah. Hm. I read in an interview that JKR never considered the relationship, but when fans mentioned it she didn't say she didn't like it.
Yay, I'm on Pottermore too! I got in on the second day, but I still won't be in for a while.
