Okay! It is time for a mini-challenge!!! YAY!!!!
So you guys all remember the last challenge, and our reigning champion of the challenge, Leila! Well this time we are gonna do it a little different. I realized that not all of you guys are writers, so this time I am making it open for anyone!
The theme of this challenge is... Back to School. This is only in spirit of having to go back to school.
Even though the topic may not be fun, I want you guys to have fun with it! If you are a writer and want to write, you could maybe write something about your characters going to school, or maybe write about an entirely different kind of school. If you decide to do something artsy, let your imagination go wild, make something that will make people want to go back to school.
Remember, this mini-challenge is optional.
The rules are:
1. Have fun
2. Don't stress out about it.
3. When you are done, send your completed entry to me at vincenzohasacooldad@gmail.com.
All entries will be posted on the blog and when all entries are in, You the humans of the blog, will get to vote on the best!
So... Ready... Set... Go!

Anyone here have a Pinterest? *raises hand* Well I do! A lot of people I know say Pinterest is for girls, but... It really isn't. I am a guy and I have a pinterest, I have boards to support my nerdiness, my appetite, and my interests... Being called Pinterest and all... But if you are a writer, which I think I have a few writers out there. *waves to writers* And some writers have made pinterest boards for there novels, or characters (points at self). And I have seen a bunch of them. Pinterest is full of inspiration. There are several pictures I have found that have helped me in my character development. Here just take a look at my book board.
LOOK AT THE SIDEBAR! :)
So to my fellow writers out there, Try out pinterest and make yourself some awesome character boards :)
HOLY COW!!! I haven't been on in forever! I missed you, my fellow humans! My summer has been filled with writing, swimming, and Food Network (and the drooling over all the delicious looking food :D BUT NOT BEING ABLE TO EAT IT *AAAAAUUUUUUGGGHHHHH!!!!*) Anyway how have your summers been so far? I'd love to hear about it! Just drop a comment!
To apologize for being gone FOREVER!!!!! I will share some of the fruits of my labor from while I was away. PRESENTING... Whatever is down there!
Jackson looked at everyone, then turned to Abi, with a really nervous look on his face.
She gave him a ‘Well get on with it’ look.
He shot back an ‘I am terrified right now, Help me’ look.
She gave him an ‘Oh please, just do it’ look.
Jackson turned back toward everyone, who was staring at him, and said, “Okay… So if we are going to do this… We need a way to get there…”
Harmony raised her hand, “The school bus. It can hold up too fifty people.”
Jackson nodded, a slight smile forming on his lips. "O-okay... Any other suggestions?” He looked around the room, however no one else had any ideas. “Okay… So… it looks like we are using a school bus…” He laughed nervously, “Yay…”
Abi groaned and face-palmed, and Rixon rolled his eyes. “He’s just nervous Abi. Cut the kitten some slack.”
Abi growled, “I know…”
Jackson looked around, “Anyone in here able to drive?”
Some of the older ones, like Blaze, Abi, Zander, and Mack raised their hands.
Adrian shouted, “I nominate anyone but Harmony!”
Harmony rolled her eyes, “Adrian, you asked me if I could drive before. You didn’t ask me if I had my drivers permit!”
Adrian put his hand to his mouth. “Ooooooh Law breaker! Shame on you!”
Blaze turned and glared at Adrian, “You have something against Law Breakers, toothpick?”
Adrian back up slowly, “N-n-no big guy…”
Blaze stepped closer, a smirk forming on his face. “You don’t even know how to drive do you?”
Adrian turned red, “Shut up!”
Blaze grabbed him by the collar, “What?!”
Adrian whimpered, “No-no-nothing…”
Blaze put him down and turned around. “Go on, Jackson.”
Jackson smiled shakily and swallowed, “Th-thank you… Are any of you willing to drive?”
All four previously mentioned drivers nodded.
Jackson smiled, his fear starting to go away. “Awesome. Now we need a place we can get supplies from. If it’s gonna be as dangerous as Vinnie says…”
“And it is” Blaze, Abi, and Zander interrupted in unison.
Jackson gave them a look as he continued, “Umm… okay… Then we need to have a mean of defending ourselves.
Blaze chuckled, “No. You will need a means of defending yourselves.” He gestured to everyone else. “Well… Except for those two.”
He said pointing to Mack and Jarrod, who had their weapons attached to them.
Jackson growled, “Anyway… We need a place to get them… Anyone have any ideas?”
Jarrod turned to Mack, who smiled, “My Aunt and Uncle own a thrift shop down the road. It’s got clothes, weapons, canned food, snacks, books… anything you need for a reasonable price.”
Jackson face palmed, “Thank you for the commercial break, dude… But that sounds like the best idea, unless Blaze wants to share his weapons.”
A glare from the mercenary gave Jackson his answer.
“Okay then! We head to Mack’s Aunt and Uncle’s shop! We should probably start loading the bus…”
Everyone picked up the stuff that they had and headed out the door to go load the bus.
Jackson looked toward Abi, “How did I do?”
Abi sighed, “Well… there are a lot of things you need to…MMPH”
Rixon put his paw over Abi’s mouth, “Ya did great, kid! Keep it up!”
Jackson smiled, “Thanks talking weasel!” He turned to leave.
Rixon glared at his back, “My name is Rixon!”
He took his paw off Abi’s mouth, “Abi! Don’t discourage the kid! If you do, he will make a terrible leader!”
Abi sighed, “You’re right… And you know how much I hate that.”
Rixon put on a smug look and looked at his claws, “I know. It just happens so much.”
Abi growled, “Yeah, rub it in; why don’t ya?!”
How did you guys like that!? New characters! A nervous leader! A talking weasel?... Anyway I have been busy! But I haven't forgotten about you guys! It's because of you guys I keep coming back. :)
