I know, I know. I missed two days.
Screnzy update: Since I haven't written a word in the past few days, I have nothing to put here. The Screnzy and NaNoWriMo sites are down anyway, so I can't even verify. I promise to work my butt off tomorrow for it though.
Ah, Easter holidays. Not as relaxing as one might hope. After I post this I have to help my mom cook dinner and then we're off to work. My parents will be out all of Sunday anyway, so I'll have loads of alone time. Let's just hope they win some money at bingo, eh?
Oh, and remember back to my role-playing post, where I said that my reservation on Phoebe Halliwell on the Charmed site might have run out while I was sick? Well, it did. And someone else took her. Chris is also taken now. So my options are: Paige (blah), Billie (blah), Leo, Coop, Henry, and Wyatt. As you can see, I'm not crazy about any of them. Not sure what I'm going to do. =(
Happy holidays!

Roleplaying ... Finally
That's right, I'm finally making the time to get back to my roleplaying. But first, let's start with our usual segment-
Screnzy Update: I wrote four pages today, bringing me up to 45/100! And all that from a phone conversation between Marie and her mom. lol. I'm hoping to get to fifty tomorrow with Marie's first official date with her fiance and then her first day of work on Mars. =D
Now, roleplaying:
In Noctem
Without a doubt my favorite site that I'm on right now, mostly because the admin is Tippy and I'm a g-mod. =D
Anyway, it's a marauder-era site featuring Death Eaters and parties and a wizarding circus. It's awesome. Right now I play a Ravenclaw werewolf girl, and Peter Pettigrew, and a widowed professor of arithmancy. Soon I'll be making a death eater girl, and some hufflepuff boys.
Love of a Lifetime
Partly the inspiration for my Screnzy script. <3
It's all about a match-making agency in Chicago. The characters (and roleplayers) are great and very friendly. Right now I just play Katherine Grant, a divorcee who is trying to avoid running into her ex while still finding a new love.
Charming
One of the most unique Harry Potter rpgs I've seen.
Set in Victorian-era UK, magical folk are being run out of muggle towns and have set up shop in Hogsmeade. I play Malcolm Ollivander, the eldest child of a wandmaker. He's rude and selfish and has issues with his little sister. I'm planning on playing a house-elf named Elodie soon as well. Which reminds me, creatures of all sorts are welcome! Friggin' awesome site.
We Are All Charmed
The first ever Charmed rpg I've joined.
The plot here is pretty simple. Shortly after the series finale, when the Charmed Ones are all happily married and stuff, their future kids travel to the past to help them with some bad guys popping up. I'm trying out for Phoebe Halliwell, my favorite of the Charmed Ones. Actually, I may not because my reservation on her ran out while I was sick, so let's just hope she's still available, eh?
-----
That's all for today. Four sites though, that's not bad. I think it may be a record for me, actually.

Mega Update
Hey, remember me?! I know, it's been a while. But I figured, what better time to start blogging again, then the month where EVERYONE is blogging every day?
Ok, so I'm not doing BEDA this month - maybe next year - but I am doing Screnzy, as I said I'd be doing months ago.
The screenplay of Ghosts of Autumn, the novel I wrote in November, is going quite well. I'm way ahead of schedule. My finishing/editing of the novel itself is not going so well. And I find myself wanting to write a Supernatural fanfic instead. I have yet to finish the Digimon fic I was working on through all of January even though I only have two chapters left in the whole thing. I should really get back to that. I have no idea about my current yearly word count.
As for the 6mo, 6no writing challenge, I'm through with it. I haven't been on the site since February, when I promised to try and revamp it and didn't. I know if I went on right now I could do all the work and it might restart it, but do I want to? Not really. I loved the idea of the challenge, but I'm just busy and tired.
If you follow me on Twitter, or we're friends on Facebook, you already know that my parents got back together just over a week ago. Yes, things are basically back to normal there. It's strange, I'll admit. These past six months have been depressing, but they've brought a lot of good things too, like my extreme writing and reading challenges.
Reading challenges... They were going well in Feb/March and then everything went down hill. I've been reading the same book for two/three weeks now. Ugh.
My role-playing has suffered. I'm still on Tainted Blood (and loving it) and I joined There Goes My Life - a site I've been keeping my eye on for over a year. I owe posts on both sites, but I just don't have the energy.
That seems to be a big problem lately. Energy. I'm tired all the time, stressed, over-worked... I'm putting too much pressure on myself again. I know it. I don't know how to get out of it though. I seem to have this thing where I think everyone is going to get mad at me if I take a week off role-playing or if I don't update my blogs regularly. So ... yeah.
I feel a little better getting this off my chest. Maybe I'll write again over the week. We'll see. Sorry for the depressing update.
Love,
Lizzy<3

Not Long Now
My living room is full of boxes, my bedroom is bare, and I have a large pile of laundry to do. What does that mean? Yeah, packing time. Uh.
So yesterday was the beginning of my family's journey of fitting everything from our house, into an apartment. We've been packing off and on for the past few months, but last night we really got to work and cleared things out. I'm not joking, when I woke up this morning the only things I had in my room were two shelves, an end table, my bed, my dresser full of clothes, and a box that will remain open until I have to move - at which point I'll throw my alarm clock and books inside and tape it up.
It was very strange to not bang into the half-closed door this morning (I'm clumsy) because my Harry Potter shelf was not behind it anymore, so the door was wide open. My desk is gone, too. Very large open space now.
Anyway, getting to the important stuff: my writing.
I had a couple of sucky days, but last night was great! After the WriYe Sunday Word Wars (I signed up for both) I wrote a total of 2,337 words yesterday. That makes it 12,484/30,000 words I've written for Oh, Baby! this month, and I've already written about 600 today. And 14,504/300,000 written for the entire year, when you factor in my role-playing applications.
Speaking of role-playing, the website I've been working on for the past month or so with Tippy is finally opening! It's called Tainted Blood, and it's the third in a series of rpgs Tippy's owned. I don't have much to say, except please join! Right now we have eight members - all of us amazing, of course - but we could use some new blood, pardon the pun. So, if you're a Harry Potter fan, and if you role-play (or not) join, pleeease! I play Fred, Luna, Joanna, and Patience at the moment, so contact me when you get over there. www.taintedbloodrpg.proboards.com
Unfortunately Tippy is sick right now (I'm praying for you, hun!) but the rest of us are still there. And once I'm finished my writing for the night, I'll be heading over there to finish Patience's app and starting some mega advertising.
That's all I have to say right now. Maybe I'll be back tomorrow. Doubtful as I'll have to get another newsletter out then. Maybe.
xoxo,
Lizzy<3

Random Update Post
Look! New profile pic! That's meeeee!
Anyway... Sorry for the lack of updates. I've been too busy writing Oh, Baby! to be bothered with blogging. Today, I'm just doing this so I'll stop my procrastinating habits.
So on Friday I wrote a grand total of 147 words. Wow. I did even worse on Saturday with my lowest word count of the month: 68 words. Then, on Sunday, I remembered the site Write or Die which I owe around five thousand words during NaNo. Basically, you type in the amount of time and how many words you need, set your difficulty level and start writing. And, if you should stop writing, you get punished. The punishment varies depending on the level. I use normal, which flashes a red light at you. Very effective. I wrote 1,196 words on Sunday. Then, yesterday, I continued on with Write or Die, with 1,377 words. That left me with a total of 7.425.
And today? Blegh. I've probably wrote around twenty words earlier (didn't bother counting), but I still have very little inspiration and about four hours of free time in which to write. Five if I push it. Basically what I'm saying is that I really, really, really don't want to write today. Honestly, I'd rather be fixing up my profiles for a role-play I'm helping to build. Wait a minute ... doesn't some rp stuff count to the WriYe total? I'll have to check that out.
In other news, Castle returned from holiday hiatus yesterday and I taped it, so my mom and I will be watching that tonight after the new episode of NCIS featuring Tony's dad. So, maybe that can be my prize for writing? If I make it to over a thousand again tonight, I get to watch my shows. If not, I guess I won't get to watch my shows. That sucks. Better start writing then...

Getting Back in the Swing of Things
Wow, I can't believe it's been five months since I updated last. Yikes. Really, really sorry about that. Um, things have been weird and hectic and stressful lately, but I'm going to try and get you all up to date in this one post. Wish me luck.
First off, let's talk about life in general. The basic changes are: there's still a chance we're getting rid of my youngest cat, Mickey (did I mention that before?); we're moving! Probably going to Mississauga, probably at the end of next month. I went on vacation and had a great time there. I got a new printer/scanner for my birthday, so hopefully I'll soon be able to upload a picture of myself. Speaking of which, I'm nineteen, yay!! For my birthday I also got my best friend Tippy's book, Etched in Stone ( http://search.barnesandnoble.com/Etched-In-Stone-Book-One-The-Skyla-Chronicles/Tiffany-Marie-Saxe/e/9781606933732/?itm=1 ) which I'll be reading very shortly, but more on that later.
YouTube has been a recent obsession of mine. First it started as just watching Tippy's vlogs (http://www.youtube.com/user/tiffanysaxe ) but then I found the VlogBrothers (http://www.youtube.com/user/vlogbrothers#play/uploads) who, in turn, led me to the 5 Awesome Girls (http://www.youtube.com/user/fiveawesomegirls#play/uploads). I'm a dedicated Nerdfighter and you can find me over at the Ning (http://nerdfighters.ning.com/) under the username of Elizabeth Sabourin. I'm also trying to save money to buy a webcam or something so that I can start vlogging, which will mean more updates than normal blogging! =D
Kristina of the 5 Awesome Girls gave me the idea for the Book Challenge. Last year she read 50 books in one year. I want to do the same. I'll be starting as soon as I finish the book I'm reading now. I'll start with Tippy's book, and I've already got about 45 other books picked.
I'm still doing the writing course, but I don't want to talk about that right now. Actually, while watching Tippy's latest video in which she talks about her book projects, I realized I haven't really done that yet. I mean, my mom knows about my stories cuz she's a writer too and it's great to have someone to bounce ideas off of, but I've kinda kept the ideas secret from my friends. Hmm. Well, I'll talk about them in my next post (which might be tonight it all goes well).
If you're into role-playing you should check out Tippy's Harry Potter site, Something Wicked (http://hoggydays.proboards.com) where you can find me playing about ten characters, most recently Fred Weasley. We're also working to revamp her old HP rpg, Marauding Mysteries.
Ok, that's all I can think of right now. I'll get to work on the book-ideas post. =]
DFTBA!

Sick of Life
I have a good excuse for my recent absence, I swear!! Well, if you've read my other posts you know that I'm a procrastinator, so there's no need to elaborate on that. Anyway, aside from real life being a pain with my parents threatening to take my youngest cat away (really heart-breaking, but I don't think it'll be happening any more), and my mom starting getting more contracts for her catering business (I kinda have to help with that), weather changes that are killing me (usually cold, then suddenly really hot), and on Wednesday I came down with a cold that left me stuck in bed. I feeling a lot better now, though not completely over it.
My writing career is up in limbo at the moment, which is also killing me. I wasn't able to write that article so I sent my wonderful instructor an email. And when that, for some unknown reason, wasn't delivered to her, I sent her a letter in the mail. I explained that I want to continue with the course, but I can't do that one assignment. I have yet to hear back from her.
I've been doing a bit of fanfic writing lately. Anyone watch Digimon? Well you really should. It's an anime show and probably designed more for older kids/younger teens, but in my defence, I was eleven when I started watching. I'm still really addicted to it. I haven't seen the fifth season as it is currently airing for the first time. The first two seasons were my favorite - who can resist TK and Kari? ^_^ So ... this fic I'm writing is a Digimon one. It's really funny and has new digidestined and an adventure and stuff. I might post the link when I'm finished. I'm working on the fifth chapter right now.
Role-playing isn't going so well. I'm currently a part of two rpg sites but ... well, I haven't been on Some Things Never Change in about a week, probably more. And I'm really angry at myself for that. But real life has to be the number one priority, right? The other site is Twin Flames - have I mentioned it before? - It's a great site, really. Amazing plot, good characters, nice people. At the moment I only have two accounts there, with two more thought up. I play Harry Potter's fiancee, though they've only just met (the Ministry is forcing them to marry). And I love the girl playing Harry. Theta is really great. She's an excellent writer; she give so many details in her posts ... I wish I could do that. But I say she's an excellent writer, not role-player.
Personally, I don't understand when role-players say they're not writers, but that's what you're doing! You're getting inside the head of a character and controlling their actions and feelings and history. That's writing. So, in my mind, all role-players are writers - but not all writers are role-players. You see, to be a good role-player you need to be able to work off of the opposite rp-er's actions and dialogue, and then add your own for them to work off of. Unfortunately, not a lot of people follow this rule. I've had to work with a lot of people who wouldn't give me anything to go off of, which only made my posts harder to write and therefore shorter. Questions are a great way to fill space in a post, and interact with the other character too. If only more people would learn to ask more questions in a post, these rpgs might last a little longer.
Anyway, I'm avoiding going back to Twin Flames because of this problem. Childish, I know, but I really just don't know how much more I have to contribute to a rp before people get the hint.
That's all the ranting my brain will let me do right now. I'm going to do some more writing now. Bye-bye.

Mysteriously Wicked Royalty
Okay, I know it's Monday, but I don't have any movie news for you. My mom and I started watching The Librarian 3 last night, but we were too tired to finish. Sunday is just way to hectic a day to watch movies - or do anything productive, for that matter. I can tell you that it's shaping up to be better than the second movie in the series. Moving on, I'm here to promote those sites I've been telling you about.
First up, Marauding Mysteries. MM is a marauder-era Harry Potter role-play site, owned by my friend Tippy. The basic setting of the plot is that the Marauders, Lily, Snape and so on are in their sixth year at Hogwarts. The war is raging, and many sub-plots are already in effect. Lily (played by Tippy), while dating James, has started an affair with Severus. Meanwhile, Remus had a one-night-stand with a seventh-year Kyndrick (also Tippy's), and now she's pregnant and he's trying to figure out the best way to tell her that he's a monster. Lucius Malfoy (mine) is currently trying to deal with braking up with the only girl he's ever loved, while getting to know his long-lost half-sister, and keep his drunk mother and influential father out of his life.
More sub-plots of MM are taken from other books or tv shows. For example, we have a Twilight plot in which Tippy plays Alice Logan-Longbottom, and her brother Hayden(Edward). And my other friend Iris plays Serenity(Bella). We still need Jasper and Emmett's characters.
One Tree Hill also has a plot here. I play Haley who is in here seventh year, married to Nathan, just found out she's pregnant and is trying to help in the war. Unfortunately, we've only filled the roles of Haley and Brooke.
While MM may seem a little dead right now, I intend to make my four+ posts today or tomorrow which should get people back. Here's the link- http://hoggymysteries.proboards.com/
Next up is MM's sister site, Something Wicked This Way Comes. The history behind Something Wicked may be a little confusing, but I'll try to make it clear. On MM, I asked how far we had to stick to canon, seeing as we'd already changed so much. Eventually it was decided that we'd stick to canon, but Tippy wanted to make another site that would focus on what could have happened to our characters. So, the plot of Something Wicked is AU.
Basically, Severus made a deal with Voldemort to spare Lily and Harry's lives. He married Lily and had a daughter with her, and now they're trying to keep Harry from joining the Death Eaters, while pretending to be loyal to Voldemort. Remus' wife, Kyndrick, died when their daughter was five, and now Olivia Lupin is in her last year at Hogwarts. But guess what- she's so much like her mother that she becomes pregnant - with Fred Weasley's child! Then there's Lucius. Since his father's death, he's taken over the family business, bringing his sister into it. He and Narcissa are spies, loyal to the Order. But they haven't been able to tell Draco the truth about them so he's ready to go join the Death Eaters.
Many more plots are in effect. Aside from Lucius, I play Luna Lovegood, Blaise Zabini, Cooper Moon, and Haley James-Scott. I'll also be taking up 2-4 more characters. Yes, I know I'm insane. But I think it's allowed since at least four of them will be adults, and there aren't that many plots for them yet. Anyway, here's the link- http://hoggydays.proboards.com/index.cgi
Lastly, just a little notice for those of you who are keeping track of my projects, Tippy has offered to help me in making a site/blog that will focus on advertising role-playing sites. We will write reviews of sites we come across and post them up so people can find the perfect site to play on. Plus we'll have other features that sites such as RPG Directory, Blank Pages, and Caution 2.0 have. Can't post a link yet, but I promise it'll be amazing!
Oh, and on a quick side note, I finished New Moon a couple of days ago. Actually, after I finished my last entry I curled up on my bed and read until I was finished. lol. Uh, must be going now. Please, please, pleeeeeeeeeease join MM and Something Wicked, I'll love you forever if you do! And send me a pm when you do, or comment here. ^_^

Death of Chaos
I'm a bit depressed, so I figured I'd talk about it here. About an hour ago I closed down my last standing Harry Potter rpg (role-playing game). I say last-standing because I've owned many sites. Lost and Founding, Levintara Academy, Throughout the Years, Worlds Collide, these are titles of HP rpgs I've owned over the years - and have closed down due to the inactivity of its members, sometimes including myself. Chaos is more special though. Why, you ask? Because it was the first rpg I opened. And although it's plot has changed once, we went through about three activity checks/member deletions, and I had to leave twice due to computer problems, I still remember discussing the possibilities of the plot with my mom two or three years ago.
I'll admit, Chaos has had some tough times, as shown above with the mention of the activity checks. But still, it's always been there. When my other sites died, or my friends didn't have any that needed my help, I knew I aways had Chaos. Hopefully I'll reopen later this year. Right now I've got my friend's site I'm a part of, and there are two other rpgs I play on too. That's enough right now. And I've got a brilliant rpg in the making. But more on all those later. I just had to vent tonight.
