Of Gypsy? Yup I already read them!! lol :DBTW, just a little heads up to everybody:
I've decided that I'm going to delete my story Hunted from goodreads no later than March 31st, because I'm feeling really nervous with it just hanging around. So if you have not finished it, or want to read it, you might want to hurry up!

Lol is right. Haha ;DUpdatoes:
I wrote an "alternate ending" for Hunted- what would have been the ending, if I didn't change it at last minute to what it now is. I need help from you guys, because I can't decide which ending I like better! Can you read the alternate ending and tell me if you like the alternate one or the other one better, in a comment? Thanks so much. Here's the link:

Write-A-Thon Goal: UTTER FAIL. :( I was, like, 20k short of my goal! Wow. That's lame. And depressing...
Words written to Outcast during Write-A-Thon: 12659
Comments: AAGHH!! I feel deprecky. I totally, utterly, completely, entirely failed this write-a-thon thing...I only wrote 12k, and my goal was 30k. Wow. *siiighhhh* It sucks, because March was the worst month for me to have this competition, because every night in March I went to bed at 2 AM because I had so much homework. I barely got ANY writing in this whole month, and I was extremely stressed every day; I had about a million projects, and I was really behind on everything, and ahhhhhh. :'( I hope that when the “real” nanowrimo comes in november, I won't be such a fail then. >.<
I'm sorry Sella!!
I didn't even set a goal . . . hmm.
