So it's about Stormy, Frizz, and Miv. That's all I've got. Well, that and two pages. A start. And now I've just sort of gone 'Fuck, what now?' And come to think of it, not all children's books have morals do they? What's the moral of Cat and the Hat? Don't let stray cats into your house ever, probably. Having wild parties when your parents are gone is okay as long as you get rid of all the evidence, maybe. Oh, and something ticked me off when they first assigned it and the teacher showed us a video on making these things in case we couldn't possibly fathom how to write for children. (It's not really rocket science, is it? People read books when they were kids they know what those are like.)
"To make your book the most appealing to both genders..."
Okay... make it about an animal?
"...make your main character a boy."
I'm sorry, what?
That's the most backwards malarkey I've ever heard
Okay, so speaking of stories, you remember that boredom-fueled story I mention a billion years ago? No? Well I may be posting it soon. Here's a preview:
It
stared up at me as I raised my weapon. It was deadly, its soulless eyes
glistened with false tears and I… I couldn’t do it. About five of them latched
onto me at once, and I could feel them sucking the life out of me almost
instantly. I felt myself losing consciousness… losing myself.

How pathetic. They were the size of hamsters. They were pure evil! But they
were dang cute. The personification of boredom itself. It just had to touch you
to drain you mind and body. It doesn’t let go until there’s nothing left. When
they finish, you’d have died of boredom. I had discovered them accidentally, at
my sister’s school, and found them nesting in the walls upon our closer
inspection. Nobody had actually died yet, but they had spread as far as into
the hospital itself. I had learned to hate them with a vengeance, but still
couldn’t lay a finger on them.
Looks like that finally came around to bite me. Literally.
So this will be up on Wattpad as soon as I get this damn thing posted after three goes. I don't care anymore, I doing this thing! I'm making this happen!
T.Y.G.E.R.
