Olla, peoples of the worldwide internet! It’s been a while, hasn’t it? My apologies… I’ve been very forgetful this February. 🙂 Well, I haven’t finished Looming (yet!), but things that have happened are: Jack’s birthday! (yay! My baby brother is now 3/0–leapday birthday, you know?) Jinx’s birthday! (My crazy dog is now 2… but he still hasn’t matured much.) Mom’s birthday! (my awesome mother is now… well, I don’t know, but she had a birthday, at some point!) And my older sister has had her school banquet! Which my parents helped her set up! And which I had little to do with! Also, we now have AIR CONDITIONING! It’s really cool. 😛 Well, I guess I’d better get ready for swimming PE now… WTYL, ~Grace~z~Artist When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall...

Hello again, peoples of the web! I hope you have all had a merry Christmas, and a happy New Years. I know I have! One major highlight was getting the next book in my favorite series as a late Christmas present–I’ve already finished it, and it was great! Another thing that happened recently was I finished the next book in my Fiir series–Dragon Sister! Now I’ve started another project–Looming, the sequel to Missing. Another exciting thing is that we have a pool here, and it is awesome for swimming! Also, we have finished basketball PE, and are now moving on to soccer. Did I mention that our PE teacher is also one of our neighbors? Well, that’s about all for now. WTYL, ~Grace~z~Artist Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation.

Hello again, peoples of the web! I know, it’s been a while since I last wrote… We’re back home now, and our internet hasn’t been working too well. And I’ve also been working on another book, which I finished just a few days ago: DRAGON BOY, sequel to a book I worte a few months ago: DRAGON GIRL!!! So, I hope it’s a good enough book to someday be published… Besides that, I have seen our neighbors’ KITTENS,which are just WEEKS old, and I’ve also read two different samples of WINGS OF FIRE BOOK 6, which is the sixth book in my FAVORITE BOOK SERIES IN THE WORLD!!!!!!! And it’s coming out in just FIVE DAYS!!!!! Less, actually!!! And I’m getting it for late Christmas! Yay! Speaking of which, we celebrated Christmas yesterday, and it was AWESOME–pie, cookies, presents, power-outs… Yeah. And so, that has been my...

Hello, super sight searchers! As you may know, a very well known holiday (or at least I think it’s well known) has recently passed: Thanksgiving! We, however, did not celebrate, for that would make my RVA schooling sister very sad (and possibly mad), since she likes this holiday and they don’t celebrate it at school. But this very night, we had a lovely meal of which I am very much giving thanks. Some neighbors of ours (for now, since we’re in Nairobi) (oh, did I mention WE’RE IN NAIROBI!?!) gave us a huge, probably not very healthy meal, which included chicken, pumpkin pie, apple pie, french fries, and cheesy things. Not to mention mashed potatoes and cranberry sauce and cool aid… Yum. It was just the right size–big enough and with enough variety to fill you, but not too much to make you feel horrible. And by the way–just the day before...

Dear brave internet wanderers, We’re going back again! It’s hard to believe it, but conference has come upon us and soon we will be migrating the wrong way–again. Even this very day, our good neighbors are preparing to leave. As for us, not much has changed. Raven, our lovely, affectionate kitten, has been causing problems–clawing our anti-bug screens to pieces, and then meowing her head off when we put her out. Not surprisingly, I woke up pretty early this morning. Jinx has been causing his fair share of problems, too–tearing my mosquito net, getting beds and couches dirty with his very visible hairs, and sometimes forgetting his house training, not to mention trying to play with a much smaller Raven. Titan has mostly just been wrestling with the younger dog. Our good neighbors have pets, too, and their pets have news–their two marvelous cats, Marcy...

Hello again, surfers of the web! I mentioned in my last post that we were going to Nairobi (I think I did, anyway). Well, we DID go to Nairobi, ate some yummy stuff, and then we went to my sister’s school! We stayed there for two nights and a shower, not to mention that Olivia’s play was wonderful and the church service we went to was great! Then we stayed at the Guesthouse-Of-Great-Butter, and then flew back to Loki where I am now! While there were sorrows (I had lost two days’ work of my book! I caught up again, though), it was really fun. I especially enjoyed the coolness. Now, in a couple hundred days (in my perspective), we shall return for a conference and see Olivia again! And have Thanksgiving! Yay! And, of course, there will be Christmas after that, and then a book in my FAVORITE BOOK SERIES IN THE WORLD will come out! So, I am very excited. 😀 Well,...
