I've written 603 words so far today! :) Here's a snippet from the first chapter:Ha, Captain just marched in here chomping on a shortbread! I asked him why he wasn't feeling sick and he said, “Looks like I've overcome that – I'm obsessed with these things again!” And he did a fist-pump!
If anyone wonders what's going on, I don't mind explaining! :D

Excerpt from Chapter Two: (Joseph is writing here)
Seriously, Lola is such a control-girl! Making me come and tell you personal stuff just like that.
Just for the facts, you may like her right now, but once you get to know her, it's a whole different story. (Too bad I can't erase pen—she's going to pound me when she reads this.)

Excerpt from chapter three (written by Lola):
I keep thinking how scared Moses probably is right now. Maybe he's not because he knows he has that Someone watching over him in hard and scary times. It makes me wonder how true that really is – whether there is Someone that watches over people like Moses always talks about. If so, does this Someone really watch over us? How do we know He's real?
Over and out! :D
NICE! I love that snippet, too. <3

The thing is, I've always been close to Moses, so if anything happens to him, I feel responsible to help in any way I can.
Yep, a short excerpt do to spoilers! ;)

Excerpt from Chapter Three (written by Joseph):
Just for the facts, I think Lola's idea to start up a journal was a good one. It's a good place to store information you don't want anyone else to see.

*lol* no kidding! Readers don't understand how hard writers have it! I mean we create the adventure, but it takes months upon months! *heavy sigh*

XD XD ----- All you'd have to say is "Writing is hard; therefore, I cannot finish this book because of the difficulties." Then publish it! Walla..... People just might understand..... *lol* XD XD

Boy, there's a lot of spoilers in the parts of writing at the moment! I can't find any "safe" excerpts to put out! :D
XD I can hardly find anything good either! ( I haven't written anything in my story today... been a little sickly ) Great word count! How many words are you planning to have in this book?
Hannah Schuck wrote: "XD I can hardly find anything good either! ( I haven't written anything in my story today... been a little sickly ) Great word count! How many words are you planning to have in this book?"Ugh, no fun! Hope you can write soon!
Thanks! Hmm, I don't know! Whatever word count it ends with, I'll take it! ;)
I know... the family is kinda passing it around right now...Yeah that's what I'm figuring too. I don't usually have a specific word count that I need to reach. I set a chapter count. If I go over it then well.... I don't care, it makes the story better.
:(Right!! Seems the best way!! ;)
Thanks for your sympathies! :)That's what I figure...
*hugs*Yipee!
*smiles* I love you! ( as a sister of course... don't take that the wrong way... XD )😄
😂 Didn't take it wrong at all!
Oh goodie, goodie!! *does a little dance*
😊 aww..... you make me so happy Rose!! ( hope you don't mind ) *smiles joyfully*
;) I don't mind nicknames!! :D
Cool.... I do if they sound silly, but I like Rose. It's a pretty name. I'll be back on later, I need to go take care of cleaning chores! 😢
Yeah, same! ;)Okie dokie! I'm currently trying to figure out how to use NetGalley! :D
NetGalley is a place where you can request to review books.. ;)
Okay... never heard of it before! Hope you can figure it out!
Whoop Whoop!! *congrats* 😉😉
How far in are you? Have you been working on it lately?
I wrote a tiny bit yesterday, but other than that, nothing much! ;) I'm over 4,000 words into it.
I did write more of this on Wednesday, but I didn't check to see how much! :P
lol You are quite busy I can assume.
Yeah rather, I guess. :PThis week we're having really nice warm weather, so we got out the pool. ;) The kids and I enjoyed splashing around - ONCE we got used to the freezing water of course.
It's about three teenagers (so far) in a gang called "The Peacemaker's" and they have been taken in by three adults who have an orchestra for homeless kids.
That's about it for description, other than the fact that it's a journal book. The three teenagers: Lola, Joseph (Captain Shortbread), and Moses write the entries in their journal. :)
