Mexico! I learnt a little bit of Spanish a few years back. Not much though. No hablo de Español.

I love the O’Malley Chronicles though i haven’t read them in ages. I’m generally more into fantasy these days.

I’m also a fellow homeschooling and city loathing, country girl. And I’m another Australian.

I’ve not been on here much lately either.

I’m glad you like the blurbs. They are both for the same story. I think it’s deviated a little from there, but that’s still basically the story I’m trying to tell. It’s a good reminder to refocus it. I’ve gotten a bit bogged down in details.

Another myth that they may or may not have heard is that our internet runs on gum trees. That’s why it’s so slow.

Upon reaching the the volley ball court she slows down and sneaks in along the wall. Hopefully no one will nice how late she was.

That castle looks rather imposing so she sits down on a low wall and pules a book out of her wonderful, expanding bag of stuff. Hopefully someone else will turn up before long so she doesn’t have to face the Dark Lord on her own.

I suspect that is because T have big blank spots in the middle of the story that makes some of the pacing a bit uncertain. Also the theme relates more to the smaller details of the plot an to character relationships than it does to the big action.
