So. Guys. I am minorly excited because tomorrow... I AM GOING TO MY SECOND WRITER’S CONFERENCE. I really enjoyed YoungArts, so my dad encouraged me to look for events like that in the area, and I found one nearby that I can go to for just the last day. Hopefully, I’ll even get to meet with an agent and pitch Low Expectations. *insert distant screaming* Fingers crossed, lol, and pray for me!

Anyways. TO THE POSTS!

I’m Not Into Politics, But... by Keturah. A really thought-provoking post about a Christian’s role when it comes to being informed and active in political situations. I’m not 100% sure I agree with everything, but the post definitely gave me a lot to consider.

The Surprise WEP Entry by C. Lee McKenzie. If you happen to want a spooky short story just in time for Halloween, this is my personal recommendation. ;)

Editing (A Tutorial on How to Bathe a Cat) by Sam. LOL, I’m just gonna let you all check this one out for yourselves. ;) It’s rather amusing and the two processes are surprisingly similar.

Do House Systems in Fiction Appeal to You? by Heather. In which she compares and contrasts 5 popular house systems from books. My personal favorite will probably always be PJO, lol, but it was really interesting to get a closer look at how the various systems worked on their own and in comparison to each other.

Well, that’s it for this week! I am off to bed early to be up on time for the conference (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!), but in the meantime let me know which house systems you like most and which... un-fun activity you would compare editing too? Can’t wait to her from you all, and I’ll see you in the comment section! :D

Have fun at your conference! Keturah's article was interesting, although I don't think I agree all the way, either. Thanks for sharing my post! :)
