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

Ugh! The Plot Bunnies are Attacking!!!

Here I am, sitting at my desk, on my computer, with some coffee, trying to sort out my brain. I HAVE ANOTHER FREAKIN' PLOT, PEOPLE! I can't even focus on one stupid story as I try to stop fangirling over Beyblade, Pokemon, Sonic the Hedgehog, the book I just got to review from Bethany House Publishers, what's left of my Toblerone chocolate and how it was 3D first, etc.

This plot came to me while I was doing school today when I was told to make a table for Word Processing. I typed "Phone Book" as a title, and an idea just ran into my mind. Inspiration seems to be back, but he isn't helping me in any way that I want him to. Anyway, this plot, or idea came to me and I thought, why don't I write a book called "The PhoneBook"? People would find it interesting...I hope.

And then I thought about a possible outline...

Or plot, I should say.

And this is what I came up with:

A girl recives a mysterious phone call one night from someone who refused to give her a name. He sounded scary enough and the girl really didn't know who it was. And she doesn't tell her parents when he called or anything about it. But one day, people start to go missing, and the girl begins to believe that the disappearences are linked to the strange phone call - even though there were no other reports. The authorities inform people that the disappearences are just because people were getting lost in a forest (I have to think of a name) and rescue missions were being conducted. So the girl decides to go on a walk in the forest and the adventure begins!

I believe it would be a fantasy, but I'm not going to tell you why ;)

So that's all I have to report. Allyons-y!
