Oh, It's Only Begun

Yes, yes it has.

A shout out to everyone who reads this insane thing I call a blog: Love you!
And I didn't say that just because I'm about to start one of my crazy streaks.

As a lot have noticed, I don't post as often as I'd like to (yeah right. pssh. what am I doing here with my time??).  School and dance and whatnot. *cough*notthatI'msketchingallthetime*coughcough* I just haven't the time to do anything these days. I'm slowly and surely playing the piano more often (very slowly, mind you). Practicing with Neutron Star Collision for all the awesome people who know what that is. (And if you don't, do not go all up in google looking it up so you can be awesome too, haha). Yush, so anyway... To be frank, I've been sketching more than often, but less than I'd like, but I still have other things to do, etc. If that made sense to you, welcome, my friend, to Planet Insanity. I'm sure you'll recognize a few people here.
Paragraph Break! Ha.
One more. And now, for the daily grammatical lesson of yours truly. Lesson: Do not eeeevvver make grammatical errors in front of me(or behind me or next to me). I mean, you could, but I guarantee the next thing I say will annoy you if you don't like being corrected, and today my new friend has showed me why this is such an important thing.

YES! So pleeeease use your commas wisely. And don't mix up "than" and "then." That's just trying to bug me, eh?
Moving on! Allons-y!

Some of you have noticed the little countdown dinglehopper (or as Ten might say: timey-wimey, wibbly-wobbly, mess-of a-thing). And it's exactly that! Or really a coutdown to the release of Behemoth!! Yesss! My amazing friend Scott let me use it for the time-being. I so happy, hee hee.
I am so very excited for the release, two days before my birthday, AND Zombies vs. Unicorns has come out! I am heading to the nearest book store to get it. I. Am. Hysteric.

Holly Black is so going down! Bwahahaha!
Back to Behemoth of course. I am very annoyed to say that Scott has found an awesome artist before me.

This is a nice example, but I never pictured Alek with brunette hair. Huh. I always pictured him blonde, but oh well, I think I remember something mentioning this color. Ha, well this is Allison B. Thomas, an awesome artist who can draw hands with ease (a life's dream for me, as some of you know). Oh, and caption-wise: this is a little picture that Scott commissioned with Alek and Deryn.
I'll try to feature some other artists I find later on. I have a few in mind already. :D

Well, I'm hoping this isn't too long, so I'll close it up now. (Too many pictures in this post. ^^)

Hair Dye & Tea

How does Alice deal with all the insanity? I can barely hold it all in my head, let alone deal with others' craziness. Yes, I drew that picture a week ago. There's little me in Alice's dress all "wth do I do now?!" n' stuff. I think it turned out "okay" eh?

I've been drawing like mad lately. I haven't had the chance to upload any but the above because I'm lazy. Loads of plunnies have been floating around lately. It's allergy season for my writing community. :D

I have successfully thought of (get ready for this, peeps. not reccommended for the queasy or the pregnant) two new story ideas, a myriad new scenes for NaNoWriMo 2011(useful, isn't it? O.o), and a change of hair color for my character, the lovable Jeff Waylin, hahaha.

Don't worry all you blonde fans. I'm sure I won't turn Jeff's hair black. It's too sudden for those faint-of-heart. He probably wouldn't even be the same goofy kid that we all know, haha.

As for the two story ideas... I'm trying to meld them into one at the moment, but we all know that it won't work, now don't we? This is how fate treats the insane ones. I'm putting money on the table that one idea will be used for script frenzy.

Well, sorry for such a short post in such a long time. I've got so much to do now that school is coming up. Oh, and before I forget.

There's me in steampunk-ness. Happy now, Sarah? :D

Off to see the wizard,

Katelyn

What Time is It?!?

I think all of you know. But in case you're reading this in the morning, and you're like me, it's SUMMER TIMMMMEEEE!!!
Only FOUR more days of school this week, and the best part is that we're not doing anything anyway! :D
Mrs. Stocks, my core teacher who I guess that you just have to come to love, has assigned an optional project for us. It's a letter to yourself that you'll get in high school eventually. I love making those.
At first I had some trouble writing the letter to myself. (I know, that's a little disturbing. The Letter-Writing Novelist, not knowing what to write to herself.) But then I really got most of my current personality into it. Lots of random babbling and polemistic statements. Here's a little snippet:
"I do also hope that I'm not as much of a
digressing nub of a dabbler in literature
as I am at the past moment. Yesterday is
history... or should it be yesterday is now?
No... the future is now? .... Surely the future
is not now, rather than the future could be now
but isn't and should be, however it will most likely
never be. This is what I mean by digression and...
nub-ition."
Don't you just love how I ramble? I know I do.
Well, I am just sooooo excited for summer, cuz it's gonna be great on the last day! Maybe when school's out I'll finally get some time to work on The Last. I only have until July 1st. O.o  ...
Well, that's a piece o' work right there.

Suddenly reminded of due-dates,
TTFN,
Katelyn

Epic. Fail.

:P
Title says all! (a) I forgot to post December...oops. (b) The Last is moving very veryyyyy sloooowlyyyy. and (c) I've read almost an entire 5 book series over the winter break. oing by too FAST! So now I am afraid to read the 5th and last of the series....
On the other hand... I've been slowing down with my drawing craze, but I've still got a lot up. I should probably scan them to show you guys, and I'll do that later. Hopefully. ;) Lemme see how much I've done since my last post.
