I can't stop listening to Kings and Queens. I agree wholeheartedly with Jessie from the radio station 'The Edge':
"If it is possible to change the world with a single song, I say 30 Seconds To Mars have achieved this with their symphony of stars.
I am OVERWHELMED by the grandeur of it. I think it's the voices, so many stunning voices...there is something magical about it that radiates hope. The ethereal light the music inspires is as powerful as it is comforting. In short this song SHINES."
And I finished the major revisions of my literary (in lack of better term) YA! I did a major plot overhaul, and it feels so good to have that behind me. It's up to my favorite type of editing now: the micro stuff. I'm a perfectionist, so polishing a sentence into perfection is a very satisfying experience. ;-) In any case, I think this story is my best work so far, and even though I dearly love all my stories, this one has really gone under my skin unlike any other. It chronicles the experiences and emotions of a seventeen-year-old girl who is sent to live in an Amish type community.
Here's my newest necklace. I was inspired to make this when I recently ordered some velvet ribbon with a bead order. It's the type of jewelry that could have been worn by a lady a couple of hundred years ago. :-)
It's actually just a beaded necklace sown into velvet ribbon. I've had the beaded necklace for a while, but I haven't really worn it. Now it's much better, and I'm making another one, too, this time of black ribbon. :-)

Yeah for finishing your revisions! That is HUGE. And you made that necklace? Wow. I'm impressed. It's lovely.
Thanks! I'm so happy about finishing this rewrite.
Yep, I made the necklace. I love fiddling with beads. :-)
