And a mysterious unboxed box is definitely fun!<br /><br />Catalina and Ronan are such great names. I know I have them both on a list somewhere. I've had a dragon in a story only once in my life. It's still one of my most favorite action scenes ever written. I want to go back and read it now. krystal janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02115542477066959046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6413452967913066120.post-35472581370575158382020-11-16T15:16:37.259-05:002020-11-16T15:16:37.259-05:00Hey Thea, thanks so much for spotlighting my new r...Hey Thea, thanks so much for spotlighting my new release!<br /><br />xoxo LeaLea Bronsenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15167672709107761219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6413452967913066120.post-7230990875481401522020-09-24T17:16:50.566-04:002020-09-24T17:16:50.566-04:00I think comedy is it's own genre!

I found it at Game Stop, and hilariously, they were literally the last people I thought of. <br /><br />I'm usually pretty leery about the thought of time jumps, but I'm just about always on board with them once I'm on the other side. I found the houses part really intriguing. Replay-ability is always a really good thing to have. I may not replay anything, but I replayed a lot of stuff back in the day, and it's fun to make different choices and see if changes anything.krystal janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02115542477066959046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6413452967913066120.post-50558748450046807692020-04-22T11:39:04.226-04:002020-04-22T11:39:04.226-04:00Aww, thanks!

Right now, I'm burying myself in fun books, movies, and tv shows, because they are bringing fun and joy to my life. :) I just finished a book that I started last September, and I feel very accomplished right now. I also made some notes in my WIP that will finally get me on track with a story I've been trying to write for way too long, so I'm quite excited about that. <br /><br />I don't feel old when I think about high school, as if I ever! But I always feel old when I talk about college. Or I realize a celebrity who was my age when I was in college is like 50 now. krystal janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02115542477066959046noreply@blogger.com
