I'm a Dragonkeeper?

I had one of the best (and strangest) dreams last night. It was so real that I was kind of sad that it ended. Anyway, I dreamt that I was a dragon-keeper, and that I was taking care of Toothless (from How to Train Your Dragon) and Predaking (from Transformers: Prime - Beast Hunters). The fact that Predaking wasn't trying to kill me kind of surprised me.

So, I was in some kind of place, in the middle of a (modern) city, with these two dragons. At one part, when I'm leaving to go to a convention for glow-in-the-dark nailpolish (whut?) I see Toothless and Predaking watching me leave, with only their heads visible over the wall that surrounded their courtyard (need to keep those guys from the populous, ya know). It was kind of cute, actually, especially with Toothless doing his quirky smile-thing that he does.

Eventually, I get to the convension, and I notice that Lt. Commander Data (from Star Trek: The Next Generation) is there. Mentally I noted that it seemed strange for him to be there. Like, hello? An Android at a convention for girls? A male Android, for that matter. But I moved on, and eventually got to some glow-in-the-dark nailpolish by Sally Hansen (I don't think there's any glow-in-the-dark nailpolish from that brand). I bought it, but I noticed that something was strange with Data. I ended up ignoring it and leaving.

But it bothered me, so I returned to the convension, which was cleaned up, and noticed Data was still there. And somehow I knew that Predaking had mentally taken over Data so I walked up to him and grabbed him by the shoulders and shook him roughly. "Predaking!" I bellowed in order to gain his attention. When that failed, I yelled at him again, this time louder. "Predaking!"

When I finally got his attention, I ordered him to return to his body and to leave poor Data alone.

And then I woke up.

Yep, I don't get dreams like that all the time, and somehow it's sparked an plot idea for when I decide to learn how to write a book :)

See ya later!

Contest -Posponed/ended

So Jake has posponed/ended the contest because of family...stuff...and that his story is going to turn out a lot longer than he expected it would. That is a big relief for me, though, because my story is coming a lot slwer than I wanted it to. :)

Right now, I'm watching a Doctor Who marathon, and writing. I'm in blissful serenity. :D

I'm Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack!

So...my muses are finally coming back to me.

But...the reason I haven't posted for a while was because of school before my computer died on me. I had to get a new one. And now I'm sitting in a cool house while the air outside is hot enough to cook a egg on the asphalt. Hmmm...maybe I should try doing that. I'm sure there's an egg in the fridge somewhere... or maybe not, since me and my bro are allergic to eggs - no no no! No that kind of allergic. If I eat an egg, I won't die. It's just my intestines can't handle it and I have a leakage somewhere that allow non-fully-digested food into my bloodtream...I think.

Now: the reason why my muses are coming back.

I'm clearing all of the storys I had up (since I lost them with my computer...poor laptop) and working on one.

And you know what gave me fire to start writing full force again? This:

The writer Cornelia Funke dedicated the story Inkheart to Brendan Fraser because when she created the character Mortimer Folchart, she was thinking of him. And Mr. Fraser is a pretty popular actor. He ended up being the actor to play Mortimer in the movie.

Sooo... I would to do something similar.

So I'm going to base one of the characters in my story off of this fellow:

Shia Saide LaBeouf. The character he inspired goes by the name of Jason Eric Ravenwood-Small. But his signature would only contain this much of his name: Jason E. Ravenwood. Hopefully, the publisher would allow me to dedicate the story to him. 'Cause if the book becomes a movie...well...he would make a great Jason.

So that's what rekindled my writing :)

I'm Really Thankful...

I am so happy. My mind is running rampant with ideas for my story, and I have finally gotten a picture up of the Car AI (artifical intelligence) that will be starring in the first book of a series that I can't even name yet (since my mind has kinda run dry with ideas). The picture to the left of these words is what the AI will look like. I still haven't got a name for him yet, though. I listed it last post but nobody commented, so I'm mentioning it again. I'll set up a poll for it, and I expect you to vote. Please. Thanks. I'll continue to write, but I will have to stop when I come to the part where Andi (the main character) meets the AI. I might just lose the inspiration if I do.

I'll also set up a poll for the title of the book as well. But first, I have to show you the summary. :) When you read it, please tell me if you have any ideas.

Andrea "Andi" Anderson is a normal homeschooled girl. She loves horses and lives on a farm. One day, her life is flipped upside down when she is kidnapped. She quickly learns that her captors want her for a specific - and a farfetched and rediculous - reason. Andi, it seems, is a hero that is from another world. Her captors use her to travel to this fantasy world full of Lord of the Rings like magic so that they may be able to obtain enough power to take over Earth and crown their leader - a sixteen year old boy named Fletcher Knight - as king. But before Fletcher can put his plans into action, they are put under threat as a man who has the power that Fletcher wants finds out about Andi. Now they must team up in order to stop this man, and Fletcher learns that being good and being a hero is a lot better than being bad.

How was that?

Please tell me...
