3rd July

Yep. she is indeed. :)
My mum's best friend promised that she would take me and my sister down to London to see two shows of our choice. Now, that was two years ago, and everybody has been putting it off, and putting it off as more and more crap has come up, but after my moaning, and my mum's friend (Trish)'s moaning, we're finally settling on a date!

Yesweare. I'm so happy.
We've decided that we're going to go down around my sister's birthday in late September to see the Phantom of the Opera, and Chicago. I was tempted to ask to see Wicked while we're down there, but no offense to Alexia (who has taken over while Kerry's on Broadway), I'd rather see Kerry, so I'm going to head down to see Wicked again in December, when Kerry comes back. I'm super excited for PofO though, and Chicago, because I love the movies, and the soundtracks, and would love to see a show besides Wicked. :D

Anyway. Other news...
Ohyeah. =D I'm almost at 95k with the novel! ^0^ It's been tough these past few days, but I think I've broken through the barrier again, and I'm getting somewhere with my plot. Although we're 95k in though, the end isn't really close, yet. It's getting CLOSER don't get me wrong, it's just not... CLOSE. XD I know where I'm going through, so I can promise you that although it seems like plotless rambles, this is only half the case!! =]

I've also had ideas for the next novel, and the one after that. And, the new title of the series is

Exos: The Blonde, The Bad, and The Artificial.

xD
How awesome? It fits each novel, that way. I've also come up with a working title for the last novel. Roboto. As you can tell, the Queen song Mr. Roboto has had some rather profound effects on my work. >_>

But, never mind that.

AND! Today was my last day of Sixth Form for the year. Tomorrow I head to East Anglia university to have a look around, and then next week, from Sunday to the following Saturday I'll be doing a summer school with Nottingham Uni, which I'm really looking forward to. :) I'm just hoping I can hit 100k on the novel before then, because I'll sleep so much easier if I can.

I guess I'd better get cracking, hadn't I? If I want to get it done...

xx
Peace out.

About Me

My Photo
Name: Kitty Taylor
Location: Derby, Derbyshire, United Kingdom

I'm a 23 year old female, who spends much too much of her time online, and in the book store. I'm in love with writing, and reading and anything mildly creative, really. In the future I'd like to write professionally, because it's something that I know would be perfect for me, but until I come up with best selling material that will keep me in the moneys, I think I'll just head for whatever I can get. Got contacts in the writing business? Let me know, I'd love to learn more about it.

"Come on babe

Why don't we paint the town?

And all that Jazz

I'm gonna rouge my knees

And roll my stockings down

And all that jazz

Start the car

I know a whoopee spot

Where the gin is cold

But the piano's hot

It's just a noisy hall

Where there's a nightly brawl

And all

That

Jazz

Skit two!

And all that Jazz

Hotshot!

Whoopee!

And all that Jazz

Slick your hair

And wear your buckle shoes

And all that Jazz

I hear that Father Dip

Is gonna blow the blues

And all that Jazz

Hold on, hon

We're gonna bunny hop

I bought some aspirin

Down at United Drug

In case you shake apart

And want a brand new start

To do that-

Jazz

Find a flask

We're playing fast and loose

And all that jazz

Right up here

Is where I store the juice

And all that jazz

Come on, babe

We're gonna brush the sky

I bet you lucky Lindy

Never flew so high

'Cause in the stratosphere

How could he lend an ear

To all that Jazz?

Oh, you're gonna see your sheba shimmy shake

And all that jazz

Oh, she's gonna shimmy 'till her garters break

And all that jazz

Show her where to park her girdle

Oh, her mother's blood'd curdle

And If she hears her baby squeal

It's For all that jazz

And all that jazz

And all that jazz

Come on babe

Why don't we paint

The town?

And all that jazz

I'm gonna

Rouge my knees

And roll my

Stockings down

And all that jazz

Start the car

I know a whoopee spot

Where the gin is cold

But the piano's hot

It's just a noisy hall

Where there's a nightly brawl

And all that-

Jazz

No, I'm no one's wife

But, oh, I love my life

And all that Jazz!

That Jazz!"
