For Christmas I gave some people my little book that I wrote about my travel through Rome. It looks pretty cool. I had it printed and made out as an actual book. I also posted it online . I hope some people will read it.

Finally posted a new chapter! Being ill and my eyes getting light sensitive didn't help in my progress. Now I have a writer's block. I tried to start the new chapter, but it just felt bad, not inspired at all. I do have some things like health concerns and my 29th birthday on my mind, which is on the 13th. It also occurred to me that perhaps I was getting a bit stuck in the POV of Harry and my next chapter was actually more about progressing Hermione's story. So, I thought of writing a one-shot from Hermione's POV to see her side more. It would be about her life in Malfoy Manor and how she ended up going to the Ball. I already started it a bit, and I felt that it was not bad. So I may complete that before a new chapter.

I actually posted chapter 8 today! YAY! It's my longest chapter yet and full of the Malfoys. I really love my description of how Harry approaches the Manor. I can't wait to have people read it. It's always so interesting to hear what people are saying, what they think. Of course, now that chapter 8 is up, everyone is wondering how chapter 9 is going. Well, I'm almost done with it. It's rather long as well. It has an event which is mentioned in chapter 8. There is a bit that I'm slightly unsure of, I'll just have to see what my betas say about it. Another bit worth mentioning is a monologue. Technically it's a bit long to have uninterrupted, but it wouldn't work otherwise. I had some problem with typing after writing it, you may guess why. The remaining part is the culmination of the whole chapter. I just had a bit of an idea to put in there, so now I'm going to put that into my chapter notes. .... Done. Ah, cool! That's going to be so c

I have recently posted chapter 7 on The Hex Files. Until tomorrow I'll only have it up there as it's really late and I'm very sleepy, but it is there. When I sent the new chapter to them they had a little problem with my capitalising "Our World" in my story and it made me think about just why I did that. This is what I wrote: I'm doing that in a sort of a reference to Gone With the Wind. There is a part where Rhett speaks about the purpose of war as opposed to the true purpose and he says something like "Cause with a capital "C"" in irony. So "Our World" is kind of ironic in the sense that it's said by people who think that it's their world and that they are doing what is best for it, but it's best for them actually most of the time. I could make a lengthy comparison here about how the different people in the story think about "Our World", but the story does speak for itself. A little update on th

This morning I got my chapter back from HexFiles, so I quickly made the changes and uploaded the latest chapter to all the usual places. It will probably take a while for it to appear on all the sites, especially HexFiles. Now I'm off to have breakfast, especially coffee! I'm also going to have the juice of a grapefruit that I'm going to sqeeze. Hopefully the vitamin C is going to give me more energy.

I finally posted chapter 4 on The Hex Files. Once it gets accepted there, I will post it on the other sites as well. I was so late with this one! My mom came for a visit and I just couldn't let my very Virgo mom see the mess that is usually my apartment, even if she did come with the intent of cleaning. Then she came and we went to buy me some new trainers for spring as my old ones walked around Munich, then Scotland last year and a lot during the fall too. Of course, now they look really worn and since I dress really smart most of the time, even my casual clothes, I couldn't let them ruin my ensamble. The next day we bought new jeans. I didn't have any wearable black ones and also bought a pair of dark blues as they were on sale. 20% off and they fit me like a glove! My ass looks nice too. :D I also saw a doctor last week in my home town. Nothing big, but I've had some problems all my life and sometimes I just need to have them checked. After that I ended up

This is Zelda Hawke, the reason why I'm a little late with my chapter. I finally posted chapter 3 on all my usual places. I have two betas now and my, it was work looking through their edits. I was a bit late posting this chapter, but I was so caught up in Dragon Age II and spending time with my mom over the Hungarian national holidays that I simply forgot what day it was. Yeah, it happens. My new beta, Icicle is helping me with my style. Her questions made me think of how I want to write and in my answers I put in some thoughts into writing on the subject. It was nice to actually express what I think about my writing and what I want to achieve. So I decided to copy some things here in order to remember them. "I actually don't like short descriptions. In the past, I could have written the whole story in 10 pages. I had to work on being able to put more substance into the descriptions and such. I try to give details to things that point to the history of an

I've put up chapter 2 of my H/D fic. I even managed to find a beta for it and now I just got 2 more volunteers! I've been getting some comments on Ron's odd behaviour after posting it on HexFiles, so I decided to put a little end note on it. Since it does seem really strange at this point in the story, later on it will be understood once I reveal what has been going on the past 14 years. I'm not sure yet when that will be though. I'm at chapter 8 and it doesn't look like it. Maybe around chapter 10. I know what needs to happen until Harry can know just what has been done to Hermione and him. I need to time it right so that things don't go too fast. After all, once Harry knows about everything, there is no going back for him. He won't be able to pretend anymore, so he has to only find it out once he no longer has to pretend. I just hope that people won't be terribly confused until then!

This week I was a very good girl. I cooked for the whole week on Monday evening. I did make some coconut-almond pastry thing, but no flour and I used sweetener in stead of sugar. Okay, I did have to make whipped cream for it, but really skimmed milk and really little portion. I still have a problem with getting up in the morning. I was fine on Monday and Tuesday, had breakfast too, but on Wednesday and Thursday I slept in. Brewed coffee at Starbucks with soy milk and some whole-wheat pastry from another shop. Fine, I got two little pieces of sugary pastry too. On both days I had lunch really late. On Friday, I got up on time. I had some of the lunch foods for breakfast as I made too much again, or I eat too little. I mean, I made one chicken breasts, the two halves in different ways and I still can't eat it. So I had 5 small pieces of my cumin chicken with one piece of whole-wheat toast. I also had a piece of the pastry with coffee. I don't know why, but I felt

I reposted the first chapter of my new Harry / Draco fanfiction. I needed to make a lot of corrections, but mostly just styling stuff. I posted it to some pairing specific archives and also to my other fanfiction accounts, so it's up in a lot of places. I love to get reviews, so I hope by making it so available, I'm going to get some. The hardest things was getting it on The HexFiles, but I finally managed to make all the corrections they wanted, so it's finally up. I'm so glad. The effort even paid off, as I already got my first review there! BunnySummers 2011.03.02 - 04:08PM 1: Chapter 1: Shocking News Anonymous This is an extremely intriguing premise for a story. Looking forward to seeing how events unfold. :o) So happy!

Well, I'm single again. I should be sad now, but I'm actually  relieved . It wasn't working and I think we both knew it for some time, but we still dragged it on. He because he liked me too much and I because I just didn't want to be single again. Or rather, just didn't want to break up again. The last time sucked. So what happened? Last I wrote about my relationship we went to Vienna. It was quite good, but there were schedule problems, as I've mentioned. We both went to spend the holidays with out families in different cities, so we didn't meet. We later met, but then I caught influenza and I was back with my mom for a few weeks again. Then we met once again and tonight he broke up with me in an email. Which I would mind, if I felt something, but since I apparently don't, I'm rather glad for. He says that it was me who didn't want to spend enough time with him. True that I had belly dancing, but I had been looking forward to relaxing ov
