Okay, so this blog is going to take a Vlogbrothers/John Green, two parter, thing.
PART ONE: Trip down memory lane.
Okay, I remember this time, not that long ago, seriously like maybe 2 years, when I was staying at a friends. Well we went on BlogTV to watch I believe it was Kaleb Nation (but it may have been John). Anyway, we started talking about LOST (cause we're cool like that) and started saying Charlie is dead (cause he is). Well people started reading it and thinking that Charlie McDonnell (of Charlieissocool fame) was dead. Well we found this really funny so we decided to try to start a rumour that Charlie was dead. Well people thought it, it didn't get too big, and then she got kicked off but I didn't. AH, fun times, fun times.
PART TWO: I made a fan today.
Today I started talking to a 14 years girl. It started about her admiring my MacBook Pro, and then evolved onto her seeing that I'm a writer. I told her about it and she was hooked. She told me I have to finish it and get published. She even said she'd get her friends reading my Zombie book. This was really good encouragement to finish and fight to get published. She made me see that people would want to read it, and her enthusiasm is great. Now she's going to help me by being one of my critics, and she'll be a big help when it gets published with advertising. And it will be published. So, all in all, a good day.
PS my copy of Zombie's Vs Unicorns came in! :)
That friend who started that rumor about Charlie was NOT me. NOT.
ReplyDeleteI'm really happy it encouraged you, I hope that knowing you have fans (and I'm one too!) will give you lots of motivation as you work on your writing and geting your book published. She really was enthusiastic and that was just one person you randomly met, just image how many more people will be fans once you get published! Remember that whenever you get frustrated. *cheers* :)
