I still have yet to read Erring on the Edge of Safe XD I shall begin now.
How'd you make em, I cant do it cause I suck. O.o
Haha, thanks!
Umm, I usually find a picture on google images and then use picnik.com to edit it. I don't feel bad about using pictures that are probably copyrighted because 1) I'm not making money off of it, 2) this is only an idea of what I want the cover to look like, not the final thing, and 3) I can't draw worth a crap, I won't have a digital camera until Christmas, and most royalty-free pictures just don't work.

Soo.....you didn't read anything.

This will only make sense if you've read chapter 3 of The Half-Blood.

Sorry, I'm going to read right now.
But tell me whether you'd like me to comment here, or on the story itself.
Ok first off Skitts, I LOVE your cover for Half-Blood!! It's freakin awesome! Now on to feedback for Chapter one (of Half-Blood) :)First thing I noticed was that your grammar and punctuation was great! I found no spelling errors or places where you forgot a word or whatever so that was good.
You describe the restaurant as 'high-class' and 'ritzy' but I think that some more visual details are needed to describe it.
Also I think that the character that you introduced (Roscoe Tyler) needs a bit of describing too just on the level of appearance.
The last sentence is truly brilliant! It really makes me want to read more (which I will definitely be doing).
Great work overall, Skitts! This story sounds intriguing and I hope you keep adding more to it :D

Wait...I'm confused about the rules...Was that for our writing topics or was that for something else? Because I have a lot of different genres...
No, all of your writing goes in here, just tell us when you have a fantasy, horror, or sci-fi story. Otherwise do whatever you'd like with this topic, since it's yours.
I was worried that I'd have to change the topic to just "Skitts's Writing". I love my ponies and unicorns and penguins too much.
XD
Your penguins, unicorns and ponies are all welcome to stay.

'Erring On the Edge of Safe'....this is something I dared myself to write. It's written in second person and future tense. It's really weird writing it, but it's extremely entertaining. I havn't gotten very far in it, but I hope to be posting more soon.
'The Black Diamond'...this is going to be a really legit fantasy story....it's still developing, but there is always a developing process. Afer all, Harry Potter started out with JK Rowling writing on napkins.
I have been writing this story for about 2 years now. It is called Making the Skies Fall and I have written about 190 pages. However, I haven't written the ending yet. I had to go back and re-write a few things because it was coming to a grinding halt. It is probably my most popular story, even though I only have a few chapters up. It is very frustrating going through the editing process, so please bear with me.
Oh. And you'll meet Mitchell in this. Just know that he's mine. You can like him and crush out on him all you want. But you can't have him.
'The Half-Blood....This is a story about a girl named Miranda who's mom is a vampire and her dad is a human. Essentially, it's about how a vampire named Jacques is trying to kill Miranda because he thinks she's an abomination. Meanwhile, there's a group of crazy human scientists who want to experiment on Miranda and her parents, because it is thought to be impossible for humans and vampires to reproduce together. Also, these scientists are planning a vampire genocide. Oh, and by the way, Maxy Maxtasticus has dibs on Shay. I have dibs on Alessandro aka Mick Roselli. Other than that, you can have whoever you want.
Easy As Pie... I don't really know what I'm going to do next, but that's okay.
Changes....Okay. If you've read Making The Skies Fall, you hopefully remember Mitch. This is written from his 13-year-old point of view. Just so you know, he's a jerk in this. Or, as my friend Rachel said, a "zjark" (long story). I suggest you read MtSF first, because...that one's just better.
This is a poem I wrote that was inspired by the song "The Con" by Tegan and Sara. My poetry doesn't rhyme, and it probably never will. I write in free verse, and if you don't like it, suck it up. I'm just kidding. I don't really care if you don't like it.
I got bored. So I wrote little excerpts from the pasts of some of my favorite characters.
