As I'm roughly 5 chapters into my first ever novel I've been giving it some serious thought. I don't think I'm going to really try and get it published. It's more of a huge experience for me just to see if I CAN even write a halfway decent novel. Each week I will post a new chapter so I hope you all stick with me and read and enjoy it! Although like I said I'm only on Chapter 5 at the moment so there will be periods of time where it will take me longer to write it on here.
I might eventually decide to print out my first novel and keep it as a keepsake and maybe give a copy to friends and family...
I might go ahead and start out by posting Chapter One this week, although I'm not sure. You'll just have to wait and see I guess :P

Ostara
So for those that read this I want you to know that I am pagan... Therefore a few of my poems may be centered around my spirituality. I'm not going to try to convert anyone, I just like being able to express myself through poems on holidays from time to time.
This wasn't a very long poem but I liked it :)

Ostara
The fresh buds break free
of the melting snow.
As the trees grow tall and great
I feel renewed and complete.
The birds sing and the flowers bloom
The world is born again in this spring
God and Goddess rejoice!!
For Ostara has come!
Hope you all enjoyed it :) It was a poem for the springtime and that's how I decided to express it lol

Broken Angel
This was a poem I had done back in high school. Although it seems pretty depressing I actually really enjoyed writing it. Feel free to give your feedback.
Broken Angel
I am a broken angel
Walking through the graveyard
I have fallen fast and hard
My world has come crashing down
All around me I see broken
Remains of a once happy girl
The blood and tears I shed
flow endlessly together in time
I wish I hadn't caused
my life to go all wrong
I want to be fixed
I want to be healed.
My companion is not here
He has left me fore dead
And while I try to bring peace and love
I get my heart torn apart
All I want is his love once again
He means so much to me, I miss him
But he turns from me, pushing me away
with his harsh and angry words
This broken angel doesn't want to go on like this anymore
I will watch as my blood and tears
seep out of my dying body
And as I slowly fade away this broken angel shall say
"Goodbye"

Blocked!
So, sadly to say as of right now I have severe writer's block. I can not think of a single poem to write. I'm at a stopping point before I even begun. I thought of posting my older poems from when I was younger, but they are the writings of a depressed girl at the time lol. Although I must say there is one I was proud of writing and it may be the only one I decided to copy onto this blog.
I sure hope this block passes soon cause I know deep down in me I have a good story or poem just waiting to come out!

The start of something new
Hello all,
I have decided to start this blog in hopes of expanding my hobby and interest in writing. I took up writing poetry in school and recently had the chance to reflect back on my school day writings. That has sparked me to want to continue. Most of my first poems were the ramblings of a young teenage mind and of course are a little darker, but that sounds like most high-schoolers now and days anyway lol.
I also hope to eventually try my hand at a novel, this will be a work in progress as I have NEVER attempted a novel before and its not something to just rush into. I hope to write about all sorts of things on this blog and I hope someday it inspires others to pursue their writing hobbies as well.
I might try my hand at a few articles as well, who knows?
I hope those of you that read this enjoy my writings and I'm ALWAYS looking for feedback. Good or bad, as long as it is expressed in a professional manner.
*More to come*
