Awesome Or What?


This may not be a book you recognize, that will probably be because this is a proof copy of my very own novel (the one I was talking about a couple of posts ago, the really short one). It may not be very long, the story might not be the best ever thought up and there are probably reams of clunky prose but still it's mine and I can't help but squee every time I look at it.

One step closer to becoming a published author and already it feels like it's not such an out there idea after all.

Later!

Great Day Out

Hello! I know I haven't posted in a while but I did warn you about that when I started this blog. Anyway, Portugal was awesome as usual (barring ocassional bouts of depressive thinking) but I think I'm done with going away with my parents on holiday. I'm thinking of Barcelona next year maybe, I hear it's good.

So today was the Dunbar Lifeboat day and we went along to have a look. We had donuts and candyfloss and alcohol. I won a can of coke at tombola which mum dropped and burst but then when we passed the stall again I won a bottle of wine that more than made up for it ;p. There were birds of prey and I had a go at archery! Which is, basically, awesome! I had five arrows and managed to hit the bullseye three times! Unfortunately I don't have a pic of me looking epic as I pull the string back before letting the arrow fly straight and true towards its target as mum was too busy making sure she didn't drop my bottle of wine and I forgot to say before I finished. :( Oh well, I won a water bottle for getting three in the centre anyway.

In other news I've finally got a new phone! It is an htc desire c for £10 a month and it's what I am typing this blog on right now, which is a vast improvement on my old phone which couldn't even load blogspot. Anyway, I'll leave you for now, we're having a barbecue tonight and I have to go put this bottle of wine in the fridge.

Later!
