I finnished Burning Blue and I'm working on the last book in the triolgy, Whispers of War. I can't wait until I finish that one and then I can start thinking about publishing! So what happened in Burning Blue? I ain't tellin' you nothing! You're going to wait for it to come out! Anyway, what I did with this book is I accosatied the characters with my friends and it's really fun watching them fight over who is stronger! But it's been life changing writing my story in a different context than this world and I've seen God through it. He's shown me what to write and has shown me that there is a hope and that will always be there and it demands our fate. I was looking through my Bible last night in Psalms and I found the PERFECT one for Aragorn! and I looked a little more and I found one for Taiah, Aragorn's daughter! So I need prayers for Tuesday, because I'm getting surgery!

Have
you ever seen it Aragorn? The White Tower of Ecthelion, glimmering
like a spike of pearl and silver. Its banners caught high in the
morning breeze. Have you ever been called home by the clear ringing
of silver trumpets?" ~ Boromir to Aragorn in Lothlorien

Burning Blue
If anyone reads this, I'm sorry for not posting in a while. I've been busy... well... writing! In Burning Blue I'm almost to 90 pages and not even 3/4ths done yet!!! That's pretty much it for now. But I want to thank my characters for putting up with me all this time and my friend Hannah for revising and giving me ideas!

There and Back again...
Ok, no, I'm not Bilbo Baggins nor do I want to be, but I finnished Rekindled Hope and I'm on to the sequel, Burning Blue. I have writer's block a lot but I think that's just normal. The truth is I think I might be able to get to state again, like I did with Rekindled Hope in 4-H, yeah, huge acompishment. So in case you wanna know how it ended, here you go. SPOILER ALERT!!!!!
Aragorn looked at Anya. He knew she was his joy.
“Aragorn. The house of my father is ending. I love you. I always have. I died for you and I died with honor. Remember that. Remember me.”
“You are not going to die. You are going to stay with me. Forever.”
“Yes, I will be with you. Always. I wanted you to look after my daughter. Please, she is in my chambers. Her father is dead. I love you.” Anya said and took one last breath.
Aragorn started to weep. Cameron hugged him. He was holding Anya’s hand and her strength was no more. A parchment appeared. Aragorn broke the seal and read it. ‘Take my sword .You needn’t fear for your country. I will be with you. Always.’ It read.
“What does that mean? How can she make a promise like that?” Cameron asked.
“She gave us hope,” Aragorn turned around and took Cameron’s hands. “One last time.” He said wrapping her in a hug. Cameron cried on his shoulder. “Aragorn. I have no one left now!”
“No Cameron, you have us. We will never leave you.”
“How can you be sure?”
“I swear on my life. I will protect you.”

Dead? No?
So right now I'm on my 80th page! I was really close to killing Gimli but then decided against it. And I did kill Aragorn. I know what your thinking. 'No!' but hear me out. Anya was confessed. Being confessed is technically being someones slave but you have no feelings against it. So Anya's mission was to kill Aragorn and as you know she kills him. BUT she revives him later. So it's all a happy ending. With Anya winning a brawl. So thats where I'm at right now!

Good or bad
Right now I'm watching all of the LOTR movies in one day. It should help me a little with my stories. I hate the rule of plagerism though because I can't use any of the orginal names to get them published. (Aragorn, Legeolas, Gimli, Faramir, Galadriel, Celeborn, Boromir, Haldir, and so on.) Watching all the LOTR movies in one day has been done many times and I've always wanted to try it and here I am! Wish me luck! Well, I'm not going to be writing in either blogs next week 'cause I'll be in Colorado!

Goals
So my goals for writing this are to show a character's (Anya) journey and to ad some humor and suspence in there at the same time. Also just give Denethor a run for his money!!! I love doing that! If you've seen the LOTR movies you know exactly what I'm talking about! It's fun to give magic and flashbacks from the War of the Rings or before that. It's fun to ad humor from Gimli and folks too. To ad death in there to is really good too. It keeps people on their toes. Writing is really fun when you have a feeling that your book is going to be a hit one day! The disadvantage is you have to use gramatically correct words! AHHHH.... I hate grammar! Anyway in case you haven't figured it out I will post a LOTR quote at the end of each post to spice it up a bit! I love reciting quotes! But I warn you... I am really good at the quote games! Be aware! LOL!!! So yeah... Thats my story goals!

Rekindled Hope
Thats the name of my first and farthest book in my series! It's about Anya, a young she-elf who found that her father died 2 years ago. You'll never guess who her father was! Elround? nope. Celeborn? No! Legolas? too awkward. Haldir? Yep! The one, the only Haldir. I know you wouldn't really think he would have a daughter but I thought it would be fun! As most of you know he died at helm's deep. (yes, I know in the books he wasn't at helm's deep but I'm going off of the movies.) I fell in love with the original characters from the movies like Aragorn, Legolas, Gimli, Eowyn, Eomer, Faramir, Arwen, Galadriel and all the others who died or went to Valinor.(Ecept for Denethor, I'm happy he dies!) There are some changes in there like, Haldir has a daughter(obiously), Galadriel and Celeborn did NOT go to Valinor, theres a lot more magic and different characters. One of these days I'll post exerts from Rekindled Hope. There are no hobbits and no orcs, urks, or spiders! Yay! on the orcs, urks and spiders! The series is "Almost Hopeful" full of powerful magic, determination and near-death experiences.
