What I'm Reading: Just finished The Ghost of Dibble Hollow. When Elisha Nathanael Dibble Allen--Pug for short--and his family inherit an old family house, Pug discovers a family ghost and a mystery surrounding a missing fortune. This is a book I inherited from my mom when I was about twelve or so. She recieved it when she was about the same age. It's a pretty good book. I was disapointed the first time I read it because the ghost wasn't in the story as much as I had thought, but now that I know what to expect the story isn't bad.
Publishing News: I'm revising the original second chapter of The Unusual Four according to suggestions from my critique partner. It's going pretty well, but it is kind of depressing seeing how much revision it still needs. I'm also working on revising the third chapter of The Telekinetic Princess. In other news, I printed out the guidelines from Mirrorstone's website as I never recieved them through the mail.
Last TV Show I Watched: Forever Knight, first season on DVD. Forever Knight is a television series from the early nineties about Nicholas Knight--a centuries old vampire who tries to make up for his sins by fighting crime as his job as a cop. In the episode I watched yesterday, Nick tracks the incidents of women obessed with staying beautiful flying into violent rages to a baroness who became a vampire to preserve her fading beauty. I like this first season of Forever Knight--it's awesome. Moonlight was all right, and I'm sad it got canceled, but it was never as good as Forever Knight. The first season, anyway--it went downhill in later seasons. First they decided to bring back Nick's creepy and irritating sire, LaCroix, even though Nick killed him in the series premiere, then they killed off Nick's human partner, Schanke, and totally ruined the show.
Last Movie I Watched: The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers. For me, this second installement of the trilogy wasn't as good as the first, mainly because it didn't stick as close to the books. I think, first of all, that they spent too much time on battle sequences and Aragorn and Arwen's romance when they could have put in more scenes that were actually in the book. Also, I didn't care for what they did to Farimer (sp?). I mean, he wasn't too bad, I guess, but he was harsher than he was in the book, and less wise about the ring.
