I'm giving in to temptation... I already have the books picked out in my head... I have no will power. And the economy is doing just fine without my help. My bank account on the other hand can use a little pick-me-up. Overtime here I come! :XD

Is it just me or does everything help the economy nowadays? lol Until I succumb to the effects of stress and overwork then I won't be spending my money any more meaning the economy won't be getting my money.

Oh no!!!! That would kill us all! The truth is the economy is just a representation of the peoples faith in the economy. If people would just pretend nothing was wrong, then nothing would be wrong. ...Pretend nothing is wrong!

Righto! Nothing is wrong, nothing is wrong Tra lala lala. Excuse me while I go flounce through a field of flowers chasing butterflies in front of a pretty stone castle. As long as I'm in my 'I Can't Stop Laughing' happy place nothing is wrong and the economy is fine and everyone is happy..................right, lay off sugar and caffine.

What I said is true though. I done did studied it. Economics is simple psychology when you get down to it.

Oh I believe you. Of course if I take it too seriously my brain starts to hurt. There's a very good reason I write fantasy and not business and why I'm going to school for writing and not engineering lol. Of course psychology is fun though I've never had the chance to study it

It's pretty simple to learn, once your brain starts to work that way. I love that and Anthropology, but I haven't been able to go to collage yet. Can't make the moneys. No one will hire me. My friend Tom Can't even get a job, and he has work experience, which sadly I lack.

I also write fantasy. What is your work like?

Amateurish lol. It passes for high school english work but I've got a ways to go. Most of what I have are just short stories (mostly revolving around dragons which I seem to have an odd obbession with), one of which has spawned an idea for a set of novels which I'm still hammering out.

How 'bout you?

My work has been a bit random. Some fantasy shorts and a few attempts at romance. I'm thinking a high-school romance might be a good one for me. It's what I liked to watch on television ever since I was a small child, so I might be able to do a good job. What do you think?

I find it's easier to write on something your familiar with so that would probably work out good. I'm no good at writing romance lol. I can do fantasy, I can do sci-fi, I can do comedy, hell I can do a little bit of thriller. One of the other sets of novels I'm planning is mystery/espionage based and it's kinda fun, but I can't do romance to save my life.

Just watch the entire "Boy Meets World" series. You'll be ready to write romance I assure you.

lol I remember that show. I watched an episdoe or two before when it still aired on tv. Don't think it actually airs anymore though, at least I haven't seen it. I think working in a book store has left me with an aversion to typical romance books considering Nora Roberts and a few others seem to pop out a new one every second week and I just can't fit them all on the shelves. There are too many. I'm drowing in paperback romance novels!

Oh God, Nora freaking Roberts. She isn't even that good, but people eat her stuff up like after dinner mints. I wish you still had to be good, to have fans.

One of the worst part is that her pseudonym J. D. Robb takes up half the freakin mystery section and the writing is about the same. It seems that as long as they have lots of books or it revolves around vampires then it's popular. Oh vampires, how I'm sick of you...

Now if the writing were as good as Anne rice you wouldn't be totally sick right? Twilight though. Makes me want to retire the genre as tainted. Vampires do not freaking sparkle!! or fall for girls with no defining character traits, I mean come on! Vampires used to be respectable. But then again that was before they were trendy.

I don't usually do contests. I am not much in to competition. I always feel like I ought to do a charity but I am too proud to ask for help. I hope all goes well. Don't know quite how I can help you there but the window is open, I guess. :) Good luck.

I have seen a lot of those dragon pets around here. I like that there is a site dedicated to these kinds of pets and you're not just buying them from random users these days. That always made me sad because it meant that I could never have one. But now I do! <3 Teef.

Helo again, Saro! I see you've changed your clothings!
