Ugh, I'm sooooo bad at outlining. But if I just start writing with not knowing where it is going, bad things happen. I have to force myself to make outlines. bleh.

I'll have to look into the write in. Sounds like an awesome way to connect with other writers!

To Sarah Grace and Ivy: I am not doing it either. I wish I could be struck with a sudden lightning bolt of inspiration...but my first WIP is still in the planning stage and not ready for writing! There's always next year I guess!?!?

Well, to be honest only reason I am not doing it is because I don't write. :P I want to, but unlike my sisters, am just not writer. ;) But, I wish everyone who is doing (and those who are not!) well. :)

A'laura Pyeatt | 163 comments Omg guys. Guys. If you have not seen Doctor Strange yet, go. Go now. Go see. Watch. Bennyboop Cumpernatch (lol Benedict Cumberbatch in case anyone doesn't know) is the best.

This by FAR exceeded my expectations and is now my favorite marvel movie. For now. Until more come out, of course.

I'd say this birthday was the best, minus the fact I had an algebra test today!

Anyway, DOCTOR STRANGE.

Whatever I talk about as of this moment, will be Doctor Strange XD Got them Doctor Strange/Marvel feels going!!!! :D

A.L. Buehrer Hey, does anyone here know if Jaye's books are going to be featured in a Black Friday sale this year?
(In other words, should I just buy Samara's Peril now, or wait until then?)


message 1667: by Alyssa (new)

Alyssa | 410 comments I hope that they are ('cause I don't have Half-Blood or Samara's Peril. Eek!)! Please tell me they are!

message 1670: by Sarah Grace (new)

Sarah Grace Grzy (sarahgraceg) Oooh ! Sales! ;) I must might need to get the physical copy of all three! I only own the first and last one on kindle.

A'laura Pyeatt | 163 comments Hey guys. I'm stuck at home. ALL FOUR WISDOM TEETH WERE REMOVED YESTERDAY! >.<

Ice cream is wonderful. It helps. So does pudding. Tips for any of y'all who are getting those out, ice cream. XD


message 1673: by Sarah Grace (new)

Sarah Grace Grzy (sarahgraceg) Ugh, in a few years I am going to need mine out, I think. :P So not happy about that. At all. I am trying to convince my parents to allow me to be completely under while they do it but It's not working. :P


message 1674: by Erika (new)

Erika Mathews (erikamathews) | 199 comments I've had several extractions but still have my wisdom teeth. Having others out gave the wisdom teeth the room...

Hope you heal quickly!


message 1675: by Karis (new)

Karis | 132 comments I own all of her Ilyon books on kindle format (thanks to my big bro) and actually got Resistance paperback as a birthday gift. They're the books I that I shameless hint about wanting around Christmas & birthdays ;) Lol

@ A'laura My older siblings both had the same thing done :( I'm glad you've found ice cream. Lol I can feel your pain. Ouch!


message 1676: by Kendra (new)

Kendra Ardnek | 541 comments I have it through the author grapevine that Jaye will, in fact, be running sales - along with a number of other authors. In fact, if you want to help with promoting the sales, and get some free books in return, we're looking for bloggers ....

My sister had her wisdom teeth out earlier this year. But milk aggravates her asthma, so she couldn't do ice cream...

I'm getting mine out in January, so good to know about the ice cream. Get better soon! :)

Sarah Grace Grzy (sarahgraceg) GUYS! My sister-in-law is pregnant!!!!!! :D I am so excited! Her mom died and she lost a baby all within 3 short months earlier this spring, so we are all really excited and praying hard!

You're welcome! A baby is such a precious thing!


message 1684: by Sarah Grace (new)

Sarah Grace Grzy (sarahgraceg) Indeed! And it's funny, only 10 minutes or so before my mom told us, I said I wanted a baby to hold! It has been 3+ years since the last baby in my family, my nephew. I miss having babies around. :)

Yeah, it's been 10 years for us! I am soo excited for kids!


message 1686: by Sarah Grace (new)

Sarah Grace Grzy (sarahgraceg) 10 years is a long time! If your counting immediate family, it has been 9 for us. But nieces and nephews help. ;)

No nieces or nephews for us yet. But I'd wager in the next 3-6 years I'll have a couple! :)


message 1688: by Kendra (new)

Kendra Ardnek | 541 comments I want to hold a baby so badly, but there is no one in my irl circles who even might have a baby in the near future. The last baby I held is nearly three now. And the last baby in my immediate circle (a cousin) just turned six.

Anywho. I hope it goes well for your sister-in-law.


message 1689: by Sarah Grace (new)

Sarah Grace Grzy (sarahgraceg) Thanks Kendra! You can come hold my niece\nephew in about nine months. ;)


message 1690: by Karis (new)

Karis | 132 comments I'm so happy for your sister-in-law, Sarah :) I'll be praying that all goes well. My youngest sibling is ten, but I have a four month old niece. It's such a special blessing to have little ones around.


message 1691: by Sarah Grace (new)

Sarah Grace Grzy (sarahgraceg) So true Karis! Thanks for your prayers! :)


message 1692: by Sarah Grace (new)

Sarah Grace Grzy (sarahgraceg) Any hopes of doing school this morning were crushed by A. my mom waking me up about 20 min. past when I wanted\should have got up, and therefore had barely enough time to get everything ready for piano lessons to start at 8:45; B. my piano lesson lasting 15 min. longer than it was supposed to, and therefore I had barely enough time to get out the door for a chiropractor appt. and C. my chiropractor chatted like a little boy in a candy shop about the Elk hunt he went on last week. So, by time all that is said and done, it's noon, and who wants to do school after lunch? ;) I try not to feel too guilty and tell my self it's Thanksgiving week. :P


message 1693: by Karis (new)

Karis | 132 comments I privileges of being home-schooled :) I can totally relate. I feel that way after busy days when I go to start school and then look at the clock and am like, "What! That time already. " Plus I've found that after some of my orthadonist appointments, I really don't feel up to school.


message 1694: by Sarah Grace (new)

Sarah Grace Grzy (sarahgraceg) Haha, yes exactly! :P I love the freedom homeschooling gives me! It is so awesome! :D


message 1695: by Alyssa (new)

Alyssa | 410 comments That was me yesterday! It was my mom's birthday, so I had to make a lot of stuff for that, and cooking for Thanksgiving. But then again, I AM taking school with me during Thanksgiving travelling...


message 1696: by Brie (new)

Brie Donning (briedonning) | 199 comments My mum rarely let me skip school work. Now that I'm older and have to manage my self, I find it hard to keep on track.


message 1697: by Stargazer (new)

Stargazer R. L. | 576 comments Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I hope y'all have a million things to be thankful for today!

@Sarah Grace: I pray all goes well for your sister-in-law!

@Homeschool conversation: Does anyone on here go to public school? Because everyone's always talking about being homeschooled and I've never heard anyone mention not being homeschooled so it makes me curious if we're all homeschooled or not?

One of the probably million things I'm thankful for is. . . I'm half-way through Samara's Peril. :D Which also means I'm very thankful for the friend who is generously lending it to me.
And I'm always thankful for y'all and this group. :)

God bless you all! I pray you have awesome Thanksgivings! :)


message 1698: by Brie (new)

Brie Donning (briedonning) | 199 comments I'm pretty sure some people have talked about school. Not sure who but they're here somewhere.


message 1699: by Stargazer (new)

Stargazer R. L. | 576 comments @Brie: Yeah, probably somewhere.

Also, didn't mean to be insensitive to the people who don't 'do' Thanksgiving. I forget that it's an American thing. :P

So Happy whatever day it is for you wherever in the world you live! You don't need a "holiday" to be thankful, and I hope y'all have a lot to be thankful for! :)
