Avoiding my Work

Hello World,

I have been busy doing a lot of stuff. Consisting of getting a job that I started last Thursday and absolutely love so far. It is my first job ever and I am really thankful to Mrs. Sarah Whitford for hiring me. It makes you feel good to know that someone believes in you even though you don't have credentials. It's a lot of pressure as well but I maintain pretty good under pressure. I like having to rise to a challenge and prove to people how good I can be. This job has given me a lot of confidence and is showing me how to be more mature. Like being cussed out over the phone and replying with politeness instead of breaking out a few words of my own. It is a learning experience to me and I am enjoying it. The first day was nerve wracking since I kept thinking about getting fired on my first day but luckily I have made it two days and still have a job. I feel very blessed to have this job and I hope to keep it as long as I am in college. It might even become a full time career in my future.

The other things I have been doing is my short story on Twitter which I just finished an hour ago. Promised I would upload it here but can't find it so will post later. I am so amazed by all the people who have followed me on Twitter. I have 409 followers and hopefully that number continues to grow. Never thought much about Twitter since it seemed so lame but now I am a fan. I also am postponing my editing by typing this, haha. I finished chapter ten and have yet to start eleven even though I wanted to finish it tonight. Don't think that plan is going to see any progress tonight because my mind is too restless to focus on one topic.

That's what is going on in my life right now, hope everyone else is doing as good as I am. Hope to blog soon but forgive my business if I don't.

Ranting For a Minute

Dear World,

This past week has been interesting and I just wanted to share some stupidity for a minute. I have a computer class at the college where I keep getting placed beside this creep of a guy who I shall not name. On the introduction form he decides to tell about his life of smoking weed and getting laid "more than a carpet" by over 500 women in his life. He then asked me my opinion as a writer and I had to tell him the truth. The truth being that people like him make me really ashamed to be a human. It's beyond my comprehension as to why a person would want to be so stupid. Publicly announce your illegal activity AND your sex life at the same time. How much more dumb can you be? Just thought I'd share that to warn people that stupidity is a catching disease and that shit is contagious. Be careful.

I am also busy as usual; you should see my opened tabs right now because there's two lines of them and two documents open. I have finally managed to complete chapter four of Dangerous Love and have made it to chapter seven. That makes me very happy because this was moving slow at first. Hopefully my energy and fast pace keeps going so I can get more accomplished.

I also saw an old friend of mine that I don't even talk to anymore. We used to talk every day and now we might see each other once or twice a month. It makes me very sad for the way things have turned out. What makes me so upset is that this person has high potential in life but they're just not using it. I understand that it can be hard to go on sometimes and that it seems easier to give up. I've been there and thought that but I was wrong. The more I tried to stop the harder my life got because I was practicing something that my brain is not used to. Brains are created to keep moving and so are bodies. To stop is to train your body a different way. So in the long run you do more work trying not to work. But this person makes me sad because their life could be great if they would just apply the effort. It would also help to stop hanging around what I call bum ass losers. Can't stand people like that! If you know they're a loser then move on, stop wasting time for them! Now I'm mad, so this concludes my rant. I have work to do.

What's Happening 1

Dear World,

Today I have posted on Twitter a short story of mine that is called Hunter's Interest. It's one or two sentences at a time since tweets are so short. I am hoping that it will attract people to follow me on Twitter and begin building a fan base for my stories. Hunter's Interest is a short story that spins off of The Divine Ones. The main character of the story is a girl who is very blunt and dedicated to her new job of being a vampire hunter. She was kidnapped at the age of seven by a vampire who also killed her family. After that her foster mom, Karen Walden adopted her and taught her about hunting. Of course, the girl is charged with killing a vampire named Hawkeen and he is gorgeous in my mind!! She falls in love with him though as fast as possible because it is a short story. I am eager to see the feedback from people on Twitter. I will also be posting it up here in full version for anyone who is interested.

I am also going to start working on chapter four in Dangerous Love which the editing is going great! I love the pro writing software and will be buying it for sure. My goal is to do a chapter in the maximum amount of two days since I also want t start editing on Allure which is the second novel in the series. I want to meet my own expectations of getting this accomplished as soon as possible. Once I am done with both of those novels I am going to be typing Nature of Love which is the third novel. I am also very amazed by the fact that so many people have followed me already on Twitter. I have over 200 followers which is astonishing! For a girl who only has a little better than one hundred friends on Facebook, over two hundred followers means the world to me.

I am well aware that becoming an Indie author will take a lot of work but I hope I continue to build a platform for myself. I don't expect miracles, even though they'd be nice, I just want people who love the paranormal to love my writing. This has been my dream ever since the age of twelve and I doubt I will give up on it. Dreams are given to people for a reason and I believe those dreams should be accomplished!!

Welcoming Myself

Hello dear world,

I have created a blog for the first time and have no idea what I'm doing but hopefully it's crazy enough to get followers. Haha. My name is Elizabeth Moore and I am on my way to becoming a writer. I have been writing since the age of twelve and am now nineteen. In that time I have written several young adult novels that consist of two series'. My first series is a dear one to my heart and I won't even share anything about it except that it is awesome. I have redone the book several times, all six hundred and some pages. It is my baby and I'm hesitant to let the world see it but hopefully the light will hit it one day.

The series that I am currently working on is called The Divine Ones. Dangerous Love is the title of the first in the series and is a sweet romance story. Jezebel is my favorite character ever because of how powerful she is and how determined. I kind of based her off of my grandma's stubborn ways, but don't tell her I said that! Jezebel is an eighteen year old vampire princess living in a medieval kingdom within the state of North Carolina; hidden deep within the mountains. The Court of Eclipse is a dark place where the royals are beautiful as sin and vary in magical races. The court itself was built in the medieval time when the settlers discovered the New World. Eclipse used his compulsion on the settlers to lure them to the mountains where they built him a castle. He then enslaved them for all eternity by giving them his blood which sired them to him as long as he lives. Jezebel is a descendant of Eclipse and is engaged to a werewolf prince named Evan Hunt but a human named Cole Price ruins their relationship. The novel is full of touching love scenes, promises, betrayal, and most of all emotion. I can't see writing a book that doesn't show emotion or reveal them in yourself.

In this blog I will be posting some teases about the books and my progress in writing. Along with some of my favorite quotes from famous people, commentary on said quotes, other interesting people and books. You can find me on Facebook as Lizzy Moore- Author where I have crazy friends who post random crap on my timeline. I can also be found on Twitter at ElizaMoore94. I also have a page for the book on Facebook, come like it for more details and welcome to the world of Elizabeth!!
