The best time for planning a book is while you're doing the dishes. ~Agatha Christie

A Pretty Good Day
Yesterday I woke up wondering what I was going to do. One thing you should know about me is that I love to be busy. I love having my schedule full, I love trying to fit in seconds to write my story. Plus I feel I write are better during my hectic days. But when I am writing in the summer, when my schedule is fully open, my stories become boring like my life at that moment. So today I woke up deciding to do something about it. I went down stairs and started upon my new room. This summer I will be moving into the downstairs bed room but in order to do that I have to remove everything in that room and find a place for it. So I guess I won't be moving until the end of the summer.
Anyways while I was working on it I got a call from one of my best friends who lives out of town (he lives about 5 hours away from me) saying he wanted to surprise me by taking out for breakfast. Within in ten minutes he was at my house whisking me off on an adventure with his friends. It was so much fun and I still cannot believe I saw him. When I returned home I continued with my room. Get a good amount of work done, clearing out spaces and getting ready to put all the stuff in the downstairs room now into storage. The whole time I got to spend quality time with my family.
The last part of the day I hung out with my friend Paige (I will post her website link below) and together we worked on resumes and job applications while eating ice cream. All and all I think it was a pretty good day.

My Sort of Comic Books
Almost everyone in this world collects something whether it be comic books, beenie babies, Pokémon cards...it is still something that means a lot to you. Though I have many things that our important to me there are only two things I seem to collect. Books and quotes. I have way too many, it is even getting hard to keep track. So you can imagine how happy I am when I get new one or how ecstatic I am when I get a quote book! But I am not here to talk about books, I will save that for another post. Today I will be focusing on quotes.
Quotes can be many different things, they can be inspiration when you are at a dead end, they can cheer you up when you are in a down sort of mood, or they can even distract you from the task at hand. And though I believe all of those things are true, I also believe that quotes are like miniature bios that explains a person in a few sentences or less.
This explains the quote on my page. First off Agatha Christie is one of my favorite authors but this quote also describes my writing process perfectly. Almost all of the ideas I come up with are thought of when I am doing a household chore. The story I am working on now was thought of when I was folding laundry. It just goes to show that the tinniest of things can help you create a whole other world in just seconds! Funny how the world works?
