Thanksgiving.

Hello everyone I just wanted to say HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!!! Its been awesome here at our house, we had a very big lunch then shared what we were thankful for which was so nice because it really reminded me that with all my faults and my problems I have SO much to be thankful for, like all the posts I've been doing this month, but here are a few more things I thought of today.

For Parents and siblings who let me be me, dress in my own style, be the loudmoth I am, let me write at all hours of the day, let me have my own opoiaons on things, like my own type of music, spend tons of time on printrest when we go to the libray because it inspires me to write and who let me talk there ears off.

For Rebekkah not minding me repeat the same thing for the fifth time, letting me repeat songs about a millian songs, letting me sing in an untuned voice, let me stay up to eleven at night to write for NaNo, for giveing me a lot of snuggles, for always telling me I can do it no matter what it is, for helping me to dream outside of the "possible", For always putting up with my fashanitas and for never getting tiard of my book plots and seeing the same photos over and over. For helping me come up with so much of my book plots and for being the best friend in the world.

For Sarah for being my NaNo buddy, for helping me every day to keep my temper under control, for also telling me I can do anything, for being a writey purson, for having cute curls and for always being there for me when I need a hug, sholder to cry on and understanding heart. And for letting me use her camra 27 hours of the day.

For Grace for bringing me intertantment, for have Chuck, Joque and Arfy to make me smile. For helping me write and listaining to lots and lots of book plots also for speneding over six months plotting out a book with me and planing on writing it with me and For loving my characters as much as I do.

For Micheal for being the best brother a girl could ask for and even throughout Collage and studying has always found time to spend with us and make us smile.

For Rose for being the better Sunshine then any one else in the world and listaining to my plots, looking at photos and helping with endless crafts. Also for her tasty cookies.

For my parents, listaning to me, encuaging me, helping me relise when I was wrong, telling me what I'm doing right. For always having time for me and encuragiing me in what I want to do and for setting high goals for us.

For my friends, writing me emails and letters. For simply taking interest in me.

For if you actaully read this whole post.  If you did: your awesome random person.  :D

For colors of spring and fall.

For being able to make a joyful noise to the Lord because he dosen't mind if its offtune or not.

For having the most awesome life EVER and also the best siblings, parents and friends EVER.

For uplifting music like Speak Life by Toby Mac and music by Cloie, Newsboys and Josh Groben.

What are you thankful for this year?

Danger in the Distance

Hello everyone! I thought you might like to hear an update on my NaNo progress. To those of you who don't know what NaNo is this probably wont interest you. :)
I have been keeping just on seclude all month long. I had all these great plans to write 2.000 words each day but somehow i always manage to do about 2.000 words one day then the next do about 600. :P But hay, I proud of myself for making it this far, near the first week of November I was thinking of quitting because it was so hard but with a lot of encuagment from siblings I've stuck it out. :) I'm actully writing two books for NaNo because I find it very hard to write even 30.000 in a book so 50.000 was daunting. Last night I finished up my fourth book! Danger in the Distance is now a complete novella of 18.001 words. :) Robin of the Hood is now in full swing at 12.000 words. :) I loved Danger in the Distance (Which by the way is in the midst of it third name change. :D) My main character, Karen, was a very quite girl who stuglles though a lot in the midst of World War II. I especially found it sad to watch my characters grow up, they we're all such wonderful kids I loved it but the end of the book called for adults and the ending of the war so I gave it to them. The main thing I learned from writing this book? That God will hold you in the midst of all the confusion and destruction around you. In saying that I would like to share with my favorite part of the book. :)

 Bombs went off all around Karen, she ran desperately towards the shelter where her parents and Amélie were. The people she held most dear in her heart were there, but no matter how fast she ran she couldn’t reach to door to the shelter were they stood. The bombs continued to go off, finally Karen tripped, falling in the middle of the road, she tried to push herself up but she didn’t have the strength. So she lay there, helpless and worn, watching the bombs go off around her, wondering if the next one would hit her. Then a man came out of nowhere, he wasn’t a large man, but he picked her up like she was a feather and instead of going into the shelter he just stood, in the midst of all the chaos and confusion holding Karen close to him. She looked into his eyes and a peace like nothing she had never felt washed over her, his face was not that abnormal to look at but it held such love and peace in it that it looked like it would overflow. Then his voice came quiet and soft, in the midst of all the noise:
“My shelter is not the worlds I will give you an everlasting peace that the world will not be able to penetrate. When you need shelter I will give it to you. When you need peace I will give you peace. When you need help I will help you. I know the plans I have for you Karen, to prosper not to harm you. Plans to give you hope and a future. Keep your eyes on me and you will be able to do the impossible.”

Then he smiled the biggest smile Karen had ever seen. Still the bombs went off around the two but it no longer seemed to matter as much to Karen.

All of this is copyrighted Mikayla H. 2013. :D Thank you! 

I hope you enjoyed this bit of my book and the update!
