Introduction

This is the post excerpt.

My name is Alexandra Mars. If you guessed it, I am an inspiring author pursuing my goal to become published. My friends, call me, Alex, and welcome to my blog. I write fantasy and science fiction because I find that genre fascinating to me, for there are so many paths a writer can take in his/her world.

I have been creating stories my whole life when I was a child, my Barbie dolls and My Little Ponies all had their own personalities. In middle school I discovered my creative writing skills, and I have remained on this path ever since. The journey to arrive at this point hasn’t been easy for me, and at times been very arduous. Now, I see excellent things in my future, and I hope you and I can take the next stage of this wonderful journey together.

You’re probably wondering what’s the next stage, I’ll tell you, my friend. In 2017 I will release my debut saga here on my site. I am excited!

In the meantime, I will be discussing many topics on writing and my life in my blog.

Thank you for reading, and I hope you continue to follow my blog.

Today is the first day of spring! Once again, I made it through another winter but, it wasn’t that harsh. Something deep within my soul tells me winter is done.

I believe we are connected with nature; and our ancestors knew winter was a dangerous time because the hardship of the cold and dark season, and why we celebrate the first day of spring.

Now, the temperatures are warming up slowly and more sunny days are coming. The trees are still asleep; I’ve watched for leaves to bud. Nothing. It won’t happen until April.

Also, spring brings severe weather like tornadoes and strong winds. Already, March has been very rainy and windy too in northern Indiana.

I’m wondering if March will roar like a lion, but it will be revealed at the end of March.

My life has been a little crazy for me lately for I have been dealing with a sick kitty. He is feeling better now after I took him to the vet about two weeks ago. The Golden Shadow is back to his old self. It is good to see him running and playing through the house.

I have been focusing on my short story which I am almost done with it. A couple of days ago, I wrote the ending. Now, I need to write the remaining scenes for the climax. Then I will put it aside for a while before starting the editing stage.

Then I will work on another writing project and finish reading some novels that I have been reading.

That’s what I’ve been doing for a couple of weeks.

I’m waiting for spring…

From The Sky Review

Alexandra Mars

This past weekend I read the novel From The Sky. It is the first book in the trilogy of Beyond Moondust, and the next two books are available on Amazon. On Friday, I downloaded a free e-book, and I brought the audio version too.

It was a fun read and I like Samantha (Sam) for she was strong and courageous. other times, she did some really stupid and dumb things that got her into trouble. After all, she was a teenager and teenagers don’t always make the greatest choices.

It was a simple read of a love story about two teenagers filled with tragedy, danger, and figuring out what the future holds for them.

I also felt there was a lot of potential underneath the story waiting to emerge, but it never happened.

After chapter 10 the formatting becomes wacky, and it continues throughout the rest of the…

I didn’t do much writing today. I’m dealing with a migraine that is lingering on. For me, it has been challenged staring at a screen for a long period. However, I really want to finish my short story that I’ve been working on. This evening I managed to write a synopsis for the last four remaining scenes. I thought that I had just two left in my head but when I put my words on the paper (screen) it turns out there was two more in my creative juices. Next, what I want to do is briefly outline each scene so I know where I’m going. But I don’t think that’s going to happen tonight for my head is just throbbing. That will be my goal for tomorrow.
