Checking in with Coco.

Aeyo~! (I really think this is going to become a thing).
Sorry for being quiet again for a bit, life has been lifey. Just checking in with you all really, but I do have some exciting things to share! I've been a bit inspired recently, but not in the way you'd expect. Y'see, what I really love and have wanted to be for a while is a dentist writer. I've always been in love with books and have been writing short stories and poems since I was in grade school. I don't have much in the way of published work or anything to brag about (save one cringe-worthy novel written in a month) but I dream of one day having a book published. I know, pipe dreams. Or so I thought. Until I started talking to a woman who comes into my store quite frequently and she told me that she has a fantasy novel published. A published author, from my tiny town. Oh man. That got me thinking. If she can publish a novel, maybe I can too. I know it is far off and far-fetched but it is something I would eventually like to do. She gave me a copy of her book today.

Buy it here!

I can't wait to read it and tell you all what I think. I'm really interested because it is a fantasy novel and that is what most of my ideas are and probably what I'd end up writing, just don't expect me to write any teenage vampire love stories, that shit has been done to death. I'm more the castles and witches and princesses and prophecies type; more Diana Wynne Jones than L.J. Smith. Well, at least that is what the idea I am currently working on is. Because some of us never outgrow fairytales and vampire smut gets stale quickly. Anyway, I am totally rambling and I realize that. I think I'll go type into another window now. Maybe if I get up the balls I'll put my writing site back online and post for you all. Also, expect some cute crafty things from me soon. I have a WHOLE DAY OFF tomorrow and no plans. I can't wait to see what I accomplish.

Love you all,

Coco.
