Zoe Shadow

Okay, so here (AT LONG LAST) are the winners for that contest of long ago.
Since it wasn't really formal, I'm just going to make up a bunch of categories to express how awesome I thought you all were.
Pretty much everyone who entered had a pic of Zoe Shadow, and it was really hard to choose the "best" one... in fact I couldn't choose a "best" one, so I'm just choosing the one that was closest to how I imagined her.
The winner of the Zoe Shadow pics is... dun dun, dunnnn...
Lucy!!!  Her picture will be available on the images page.
Anyway, there wasn't much competition for any of the other characters, but I might include some other pics in the future of other characters.  Thanks to everyone who participated!!!
I'm at an awesome writing part.  Redthorn (Zoe's evil ninja school) is sending 4 students to Lupex (the rival Alchemist school) in exchange for 4 students... let's just say it's going to be epic.  :)
Happy Spring Break to anyone else who is on it!!!

Yes, it is true.  I finished the blue notebook last night and now I'm onto the green one!  Which is good, I think, for a spring-y mood... fits today perfectly, what with this 80 degree, absolutely glorious weather.  LOVE IT.  Anyway, I found out that both the orange and blue notebooks both had 80 pages, and then I have the first three chapters, which were about 30 pages all together in some other notebook... so I have... dun dun dunnnnnn... roughly 190 notebook pages!!!  Which are, of course, shorter than computer pages, so it'd be less on here, but, yeah.  I am not even close to done, or so it feels at times.  So this will probably be a fairly lengthy book.  Anyway, I'm psyched for the spring and this notebook.  Also: check the Writing 101 page; there's a new conversation question I made that I am interested in hearing answers to.  I'll also post some of the best contest entries I got in a bit, so this is anyone who hasn't posted's last chance to do so!  Thanks.  CYA. 

Ha ha sorry; as you can see, I'm just a LITTLE bit excited about that long-acknowledged character, VIVI, who has just now entered my realm of actual writing.  Well... no one knows it's her yet.  She's just a random Alchemist girl who they rescued, and then ran away without a second glance.  They won't recognize her when they meet her the next Monday, either.  But she's THERE!  Cha.  I know Lucy already sent a picture of Vivi, but if anyone wants to do her, please be welcome to.  The contest is STILL ON... mostly 'cuz I don't feel like posting results.  But you've done great.  She has black hair with purple highlights, and is a little bit Asian, very pretty, quirky style... sometimes glasses, sometimes not.  I can't decide.  Her eyes are purple/gold.
Also, I'm going to be done with this 80-page blue notebook I've been on for a while.  There was an orange one, then this blue one... next is green.  SPRING!!!
Hey, and if anyone likes writing (SCRIPTS) then they should go write (A SCRIPT) here.  It's just really cool.  It's related to NanoWrimo, which is a write-a-novel-in-a-month thing I tried (failed, but got a good 10,000 words in), but this one's a write-a-script-in-a-month thing.

Ha, ha.  I don't know if anyone actually came on here today, but if you're reading this another day, I changed the whole format of the site for the occasion (ah, what a sweet occasion 'tis)... renamed it Mark Appletoe, the boy who loved science, and changed stuff on the home page.  It cracked me up, if anything.
I HAVE A NEW TITLE/BOOK COVER!  Well... the title was suggested Ye Olde Long Ago by Lucy, so credit to her, but now I actually love it: My Life and Lies.  The series is probably still called Iridescence though.  And my cover has Jenna on it, so ha ha ha sorry I didn't ask Jenna... can I use the pic?  Anyway, I made the cover meself (ha) and so tell me what you think.  It's on the About the Book page.
Also... the CONTEST IS STILL ON!  So please if you haven't, post any character pictures you can find.  Read the last post if you haven't yet.  I found awesome pics of Owen and Ashlinn yesterday... I <3 them...
Have a delovely April the first!
