I’ve started this blog post like five times. I keep erasing it because it isn’t going anywhere and I HAVE NO CLUE WHAT TO WRITE ABOUT! (*coughs* Guess I’m not a terribly successful blogger.....XD) I have a bunch of half-finished posts, but they all require a lot of work, and I don’t have time right … Continue reading The Menacing Blank Screen

Random Life Update: May
MAY IS THE MONTH OF SPRING. And rain. Lots of rain. XD I go back and forth with my love for rain. Sometimes I want it to be cloudy/wet all the time. Other moments in my life, I just want to see the blue sky high above me. XD I’m really tired at this moment. … Continue reading Random Life Update: May
Canaan’s Big Adventure
I wrote this as an offshoot of another story that I've been working on for a while about this girl that gets into a different world. *coughs* This is about her little brother. XD Life is full of dangers. What most people would laugh at, overlook or kick aside, Canaan Johnson took great measures to … Continue reading Canaan’s Big Adventure
Musings of a Failed Writer
I love writing and creating stories. Ever since I was five or six, I’ve enjoyed it. My stories used to be about chickens, saving abandoned babies, and camping. When I was eleven (after being inspired by Narnia), I created my own world named Mendolop. The heroes (me and my siblings) fought angry red dragons and … Continue reading Musings of a Failed Writer
Characters in Quarentine
I’ve seen a couple other writers/bloggers do posts about how their characters would react if they were quarantined. Me, being the not-big-on-conformity person that I am, decided to follow suit and do the same. *laughs* So, how would four of my characters act if they were stuck at home for a month? Let’s see, shall … Continue reading Characters in Quarentine
Random Life Update: April
Wow, another month nearly over! It really is crazy how time flies. April flew by with a flurry of rain, research, boredom, tea, reading, lots of stevia-coated-ice and gum. 😉 I’m really not sure what to write here. I’ve started this post like four times and just keep on deleting my attempts ‘cause they aren’t … Continue reading Random Life Update: April
AOAWFF: A Wild Month (3 of 3)
That night, after Nate and Bernie were snoring loudly, the Wild children crept towards the door of the house. Mark winced as each step cause the floorboard to creak and groan. He was relieved when they stepped out into the warm night air. Emily took a deep breath. They were finally going home. They still … Continue reading AOAWFF: A Wild Month (3 of 3)
AOAWFF: A Wild Month (2 of 3)
“Uncle, you said that your favorite meal was BBQ chicken, so I made you some! I mean, the sauce kind of ran out before they were all covered, so I used mustard instead....” Bernie took a bite of one. “They’re still raw!” “I didn’t want to burn them!” “Hey, Nate, let me carry that milk … Continue reading AOAWFF: A Wild Month (2 of 3)
AOAWFF: A Wild Month (1 of 3)
More adventures of the Wildy Fun Family! 😉 Emily’s mouth dropped open in shock. “Mom...” “What she’s trying to say, Mom, is....AWESOME! THIS IS THE GREATEST NEWS EVER!” Mark bounced on the couch cushions. Kris nodded her head enthusiastically. “That wasn’t my words, Mark.” Emily sniffed. “Do you guys really have to leave? For a … Continue reading AOAWFF: A Wild Month (1 of 3)
Beyond The Screen
Can’t see their pleading eyes, their outstretched arms Can’t hear their pleas for attention Don’t notice their tears, their pain when they’re pushed aside We’re holdin’ the devices to our faces, can’t see beyond them to the world outside Lost in the endless labyrinth of information and pleasures, we don’t see our real treasures That … Continue reading Beyond The Screen
Rainy Day Rambles
Well hello, people. It is a random rainy Sunday and I’m stuck inside with nothing to do. So what do I do for entertainment? *nods* I blog. Or write up future blog posts (e.g. today). Or do random stuff related to my blog. XD It’s almost one right now. I haven’t done much today....I … Continue reading Rainy Day Rambles
Toilet Paper Famine
Mom’s face was filled with concern as she stared at our nearly empty bathroom closet. She sighed and turned to me. “Vision, it’s almost gone.” Fear thumped loudly in my ears as I processed the sheer weight of her words. I shook my head in disbelief. “Mom, it can’t be...not now...not so soon.” Mom nodded. … Continue reading Toilet Paper Famine
Brain Storming Session 001
The date is February 25, 2020 and I am on a quest to better my writing. For the past little while, I’ve been working on this one story, but it’s just got too many holes and too much to fix. So I’m trashing it and starting over completely. There are a few things that I … Continue reading Brain Storming Session 001

Random Life Update: February Edition
Hello hello hello, O My People. What’s up? Just to forewarn you, I’m going to be extremely crazy and weird in this post. For three reasons. #1: I was up extremely late last night and got up way earlier than I wanted to this morning. I am extremely brain fogged at the moment. It literally … Continue reading Random Life Update: February Edition
Henry’s Fast
Tuesday (Henry) With brisk steps I made my way up the two rickety stairs and onto the rather wobbly podium. I cleared my throat and grab hold of the rounded piece of wood that we pretended was a microphone. “Can I have your attention, people?” Since my voice wasn’t very loud, it took a couple … Continue reading Henry’s Fast
Transformed
Fair hair and sky blue eyes. Pale and thin. Your footsteps so light that they can barely be heard. You dance with the sun as it rises and sing to it when it sets. Little beauty, so innocent and free, like a bird you fly from flower to tree, from sunrise to sunset. “Lily! Lily!” … Continue reading Transformed
The Christmas Wish
MERRY CHRISTMAS, PEOPLE! I hope that you have a stunningly wonderful day!!! The Christmas Wish A Christmas Story by Hattush Introduction: I think there should be a law banning math for the whole month of December.

Babysitting Disaster (AOAWFF)
“Mom, no!” Mark wailed, flinging himself down on the couch in fake horror. “It’s not that bad, Mark.” Mary said, quietly smoothing her dress. “You’ll have fun.” Mark’s eyes disagreed. “Fun? There is no way that I can have fun when I’m being babysat!” “Sure you can!” Bruce said. “The babysitter will be here in … Continue reading Babysitting Disaster (AOAWFF)
A Chapter From Nay-Nay
When I was younger (you know, before I entered the hugely old age of DOUBLE DIGITS) my siblings and I would often make of stories around the lunch table. Our favorite set of characters was a family called *ahem* the Frederick Family (so original, I know). The cast of characters: First of all, there were … Continue reading A Chapter From Nay-Nay

An Adventure With Sarah
(I wrote this story a LONG time ago but I recently discovered it again and laughed over it...XD) An Adventure With Sarah I sat in the sukkah.
