I got exciting news today!!!
I recently entered a short story competition and guess what?!?! I won!! First prize to be exact and now I can say I am a published author (or soon to be).
The story I wrote had to have a central focus on passion. I chose to write a story about a Dream Weaver called Lana. She, along with her people, believe they don't have a passion. The dream weavers spend their days weaving dreams for humans, working in a hallway where they enter rooms, or more specifically ONE room. Lana is constantly drawn to room 158 and weaves dreams for people who feel they have no passion. She relates to them, as she too has no passion, and strives to make them see that they are wanted, that passion can be awakened in them again and they can a live a life filled with a purpose. The story ends with Lana realising her passion is to help those who feel they have no passion. She also realises the purpose of the hallway is for the dream weavers to exercise their passion and live their life, ultimately, living their passion.
The story will be published in the spring issue of their magazine and on their website. I will also notify you when it is published on the website if you would like to read more.
I'm so excited :D
Anyway, apart form that fantastic news I was so excited I had to tell someone so, I e-mailed my sister and my mum, texted my mum and dad and then I went on facebook and let the whole world know that I won a short story competition. And then I blogged about it or should I say am blogging about it.
Okay, now I will get off that subject.
So, I was walking home today and realised I was singing the alphabet to myself? And then I would sing it in French. Well, actually I sang it in french and then I went to Englishe. And then I sang it in french to the marching song, "I don't know what I been told" but instead it was "ar, bay, say, day, er, ef, jay" (that is the pronounciation of a,b,c,d,e,f,g in french...I'm pretty sure). Yes, that's what happens when I get excited, lucky no one was around when I started singing to myself.
My day was quite uneventful, apart from being notified of that glorious news, I walked to school early, ate, did school work, then came home again.
And now I am waiting for my VICTORY DINNER!!
beef stroganoff, mmmmm.....
Anyhoos, bye for now.
