Christmas is Almost There!

Crap, it's December already?! I-I haven't finished my Abducted!!! Instead, I made Slayer! Nooo... I think I'm gonna punch myself on face. I got absorbed in Christmas shopping and vacations! *sigh* But thank God school is over! Yay! I have around 3 weeks to finish two of them! And, for Lithium, I don't know of what should I do with it. It's a logo--yeah, a logo--but I don't know whether I'll use it for novel or just save it in my folder. Come to think of it, how about making a novel with the title Lithium, and the main character is Edward? That's great, but Edward's story is too heavy. His past life isn't as simple as Sicilee or Angelica or Kathleen. And he's a guy, so I have to make a cool action story, but with romance, of course. Not like the other main characters I've made, Ed will be involved with guns and weapons, terrorist, drugs and the dark side of the world. Also, I'll reveal everything about him in the series! The series is called: Caliber Outrage. The first book: Numb, and for the second, I'd like to make him involved with a little girl. That would be fun!

One last word from me,
Merry Christmas!

New Logo

Whoa, it's November already! And I'm still stuck with Abducted!!!! I haven't got any ideas! This is not good... So, for spending my time, I'm making Slayer, the next book after Wretch. There are 2 main heroes, so you may choose the one you like and support them ^.^ Anyway, I just made a new logo for my manga I just made. It's Lithium. I really like that word. Here's the logo.


Hahaha it looks so gothic, and yeah, I love gothic! That's why I love Angelica. She has that creepy, gothic side, like Amy Lee. I hope I can finish both Slayer and Abducted on the same time!

Cavaliere Sicilee - Looking Through is DONE!

Finally!!!!! I expected CS 1 to be done in the end of November, but it's done NOW! I can't believe this! The progress is fantastic, and right now I can't wait to write the second book! Thank you for all your support, folks! I can never this without you!
Special thanks:
Selena Porter - my writing buddy
Michelle Angeline - my best friend
Evelyn J. - the model for Wretch cover and my best friend
Ed-chan
My family
All my friends,
and of course, YOU!

Chapter 17!

Actually, I never expected this. Cavaliere Sicilee - Looking Through has reached Chapter 17! It's still in the middle of the story, and Wretch only has 16 chapters. This new novel continues the story of Wretch, even though not in the big line. I only add bits of clues according to the next story of Wretch, and I hope you'll like it! From my prediction, this novel can reach more than 20 chapters!

I'm Collecting Money for The Tigers

As you can see now, some species in the world are in very dangerous situation. They may get extinct one day. The examples are tigers, African elephants, polar bear, etc. Why? There are many reasons. First, because of the poachers who hunt for animals' skin. Second, we don't care about our environment, like littering, cutting forests and not planting the new trees again.
I was shocked when I heard the news about endangered animals a few days ago. I cried and couldn't stop blaming those evil humans out there who hunt for animals. Killing animals for money is really bad, and karma always comes back, you know. In my religion, if you kill animals, you will be reborn again as an animal that will be killed by its pack or human.
So, I realized that there must be something I can do. Well, I can't just fly into the jungle and bring some animals back home. That's illegal. So, to create a better world for all of us, animals, and of course, reducing Global Warming, I start collecting money from myself to myself, so when the amount is enough, I'm gonna donate it to WWF. I'm gonna choose to save the tigers first, because their amount is really small. FYI, my garden is full of trees, and they really make the air fresh and cool. I told my parents that I wanna plant more trees in my front and back yard in my new house, and they agree to help! I hope in December those trees have grown big enough.
You can also help the earth. Remember, there is only one earth. No backups. If you wanna know more about saving our planet, just visit:
www.wwf.org
And from there, choose the country where you belong or pick the International Website.
For all eco-warriors:
!Sigue la lucha!
*sorry I couldn't make the downward "!"
Love,

Infinite Days by Rebecca Maizel

I just read a great book! It's Infinite Days by Rebecca Maizel - the first book in Vampire Queen series. As you can see from the title, it's yeah-about vampires. Let me tell you a bit about this book

Title: Infinite Days
Author: Rebecca Maizel
Number of pages: 325 (including a sneak peek of Stolen Nights)
Publisher: St. Martin's Griffin
Rating (according to me): 3.5 out of 5

The story is about Lenah Beaudonte, a vampire who wants to become human again after living as a vampire for hundreds of years. Her boyfriend, Rhode, grants her wish by sacrificing himself, so Lenah could live as a human. From there, Lenah has to adapt the human world, by putting away her vampire insticts and try to hide from Vicken, a vampire she made who is loyal to her, and the coven. Meanwhile, she meets Justin, an adorable high school boy, but she can't put Rhode's love aside to get into Justin.

From my opinion, this novel is interesting, but why did I give 3.5 ? Because...the novel about vampires is reallyreally common. I mean, there are lots of novels like this, ex: Twilight Saga, Vampire Academy, Vampire Diaries etc. Of course, the story is not the same, but when I read it I just don't get the "WOW" feeling, like Alyson Noel's The Immortals (my favorite series ever!).

If I can choose between Rhode and Justin, I'll choose Rhode, of course. He is a real gentleman with true love for Lenah. Besides, he's just so...beautiful. No other words to describe it.

Holy Crap...The Tests Really Stress Me Out

Noooo....I hate tests and exams and whatsoever!!!!! Today I did Science, and I failed in Chemistry! Well, I know that it's not my best subject, and I managed to do Physics and Biology well, but that question about Molarity and friends made me crazy. And tomorrow, there are Mathematics and Local Language. *sigh* Although I excel in Maths, I don't feel good about it, and today is soo cold and my head's really hurt now. I guess I just have to drink hot chocolate, take a nap, then study and continue my novel. I wish I can finish it before October ends.
So guys, study hard for your exams, but don't push it too hard so you won't be like me.
Love,
Anna

Finally...Wretch is Sent

Today I sent Wretch to the publisher. I hope my first debut can be published so everyone can read it! I hope it'll be best-seller, and hope you love it!
Also, I've decided to make sequel of Wretch. I haven't got the full story line, but I'm trying my best so it will be interesting to read. The title is Slayer. The story takes place 2 years after Angelica and friends defeated the master of zombies, and brought peace back to London. The main character is Kathleen Robinson, a normal high school girl. She never realized that something bigger and dangerous is waiting for her...
And, right now I'm writing Cavaliere Sicilee - Looking Through. It's the first book of Cavaliere Sicilee series and the first Cavaliere Project. I'm gonna make Cavaliere Project for many series, ex: Cavaliere Anna, Cavaliere Jane and so on. I'm still writing the fourth chapter, and I hope I can finish it soon.

Well, that's all for now.
Love,
Anna Lowenthal

Miss Popularity -> Cavalier Sicilee

OK, so I changed my Miss Popularity series because I think it's too cheesy and most people won't like it, so...I make a fantasy project! Yay! I don't know why, but I can't create or write anything without any sense of magic in it! Don't worry, the main character is still Sicilee Lenolora. This novel will be published after Wretch (and I hope you'll love it)
Soooo....see you again, guys!

Lemons :D

Ah...lemons are sooo fresh! I really love them! They're sour but sweet, too! I guess life's like that too. There are moments which make you happy or sad, and this is life! If you never have bad memories that means you're not alive! So stand up and go on living, guys!

I've Just Got Tons of Inspiration!

Today is a really beautiful day. Although I got scolded by my lecturer, but the rest is just reallyreallyreally fun!!! I can't believe it! Today I and the guy I love became a lot closer. I wanna take our relationship to the next level :D. So, that's why now I'm gonna continue writing. I hope you can read both Wretch, Struggling For Love also Aether soon!

I love you, darling! <3

Slower Than A Snail...

Myeh, I hate to tell you this, but my progress in the 2nd novel is really really slow. I run out of ideas, and I can't print Wretch because it'll cost lots of ink, and my mom won't be happy about it. So I have to wait till I'm alone in my family computer room, then rush like a cheetah. I'm sorry for this, guys. *sob*

My Worst Best Friend by Dyan Sheldon

Hi there! I just bought another novel from my lovely bookstore. It's My Worst Best Friend by Dyan Sheldon. You remember when I told you that The Crazy Things Girls Do For Love wasn't so interesting, right? Well, I have a good feeling with this one. This novel is gonna be great, coz I have read it!

Title: My Worst Best Friend
Author: Dyan Sheldon
Publisher: Walker
Pages: don't know, haven't count it
Rating: 4 out of 5

So, the story is about a girl named Gracie. She had a best friend, Savanna. They really got along well. Savanna was a cheerful and energetic girl, different with Gracie who liked to be in silent more. They talked about everything with lots of fun. Until something happened between them. Wanna know more? Read it! I didn't give 5 stars because to me it's not the best novel I've ever read. It still can't beat The Immortals series by Alyson Noel.

Everyone has one, right? The worst best friend to each of us. Well, I have one too, but I'm not gonna tell about that here. Just contact me by email if you wanna know more ;)

Aether is Still in PENDING

For God's sake, where the hell is the new Aether update, Saori-san?! I've been waiting for it for more than 2 weeks, and she still haven't sent me the newest update yet TT_TT. I called her home 2 days ago, and she didn't pick it up. Yesterday she contacted me and told me she is in her grandparents' home in Hokkaido, Japan. I mean, that's okay, but don't forget to bring me souvenirs or I'm gonna be really mad. We need to finish it up before November comes, at least!

I Must Apologize to Mother Earth...

Now I'm printing Wretch, and it costs lots of papers! Wretch consists of 180 pages, and I'm thinking, crap I'm increasing Global Warming... FYI, I'm the chief editor of my school magazine, and the last semester's theme is 'Go Green'. I made the theme article, telling the others to care about the environment, while I myself am wasting so much paper right now. I feel like Mother Earth is gonna punish me to death. I'm sorry...
But I've found a better solution. I've reduced the use of paper from 180 sheets to 92 sheets only! Wow, what a great saving! I print 2 pages (on computer) to only 1 sheet. And the paper quality is good, so the ink won't penetrate the words behind it.
And oh yeah, you can know my newest updates on my projects by following my twitter account:
@anna_lowenthal
Thanks a lot!

Upcoming Projects

After Wretch, a dark-romance and horror novel, I decided to make a light one, romance, friendship or maybe fantasy. Actually there's a project I'm working on right now with my friend. And I've been thinking about another one, and it's good and can be made in a few months. I hope it's finished before New Year's Eve. Here are the projects:

Aether Series
This is the one I make with my friend, KIRISHIMA Saori. She's a Japanese, and we're best friends since elementary school, 4th grade. We decided to make a serial together, and actually working together like this is very fun. You never know what your mate will write, and the storyline would be fantastic! We've been thinking about the title of each book, and here is the list:
1. The Heir (this is the one we're working now)
2. Darkened
3. Persona
4. Oblivion
5. Reflection
and etc. We have tons of ideas, and maybe this series will take years because the story will be loooooong. Make sure to check it out in bookstores when it's published!

Miss Popularity Series
And...This is the one I've been thinking. I've made the plot, characters, and this series gonna be just normal teen novels. Here, you can find love, friendship, and how fun the school life is, especially high school! Here is the title:
1. Struggling for Love
Sorry if I only write one, because that's the one I could create. I have to focus on Aether Series too. If you love Wretch, make sure to read this series because some pieces of the story will be continued from Wretch, and will lead to the truth from what will happen in the next series! And I guarantee it will be FANTASTIC!

New Logo for My Blog

Hi there! Finally I can relax. Ahh...it feels so good. I tried to edit my blog title, and it works! Just look at it and it seems very different with the first one!

finally it's DONE!

Finally finally finally!!!!! It's DONE! Wretch is DONE! And I don't miss the deadline! It's finished right on time! YAAYYY!!!!!!!!! I wanna jump off a cliff now (just kidding). I'm gonna print this and send it to the publisher on MONDAY. Remind me, please, on MONDAY. I'm gonna bury myself just in case if I forget.
Thank you for your support up until now! I really appreciate it!

Chapter 15!

Yay, it's Chapter 15. A few more chapters to go, and Wretch is done! Although today is the deadline, I still can't make it *sigh*. But it's okay, I think I'll send it to the publishers on Monday, because from now till Sunday it's Eid Fitr holiday. Ahhh...I can't wait!

The Crazy Things Girls Do For Love by Dyan Sheldon

OK, here is another novel I just read a few days ago. The cover image and design is so attractive so when I saw it in store I quickly bought it. It tells about three very different girls (the popular, normal and the dork) who have a crush on one gorgeous boy--Cody Lightfoot. This books tells how they all try what they can do to get him, no matter what. So here's the data:
Title: The Crazy Things Girls Do For Love
Author: Dyan Sheldon
Number of pages: 352
Price: 6.99 pounds (UK)
Rate (based on my opinion): 3 out of 5

To me, this novel isn't so great, and the story goes out of the way (deviated), but if you are looking for something to read, this book can take up your time.
There are two types of cover, and the one I bought is the right one. Enjoy!

Chapter 14! Yay!

Moving to the next chapter, Chapter 14! Yay! I worked on the previous chapters easily because I had tons of ideas, but now all of them seems to be dried up. AGAIN. I just watched Iron Man 2 on HBO Hits and now I'm sleepy and can't continue, although the deadline is just two more days ahead. Arrrghhh.....

Chapter 12, Baby!

Woohoo!!! It's vacation time! I have about 11 days off because of Idul Fitri! I'm gonna use the time for finishing my novel! And it's already gotten into chapter 12! Only a few more before it ends, and the story gets more intense. I can't wait to publish it! Thanks for those who always help me during my hard times! I won't disappoint you all! >.<

Yay Chapter 10!!!

Gosh, it's really hot today. I can feel the sun burning my skin. Every time I stand right under the sunlight, my face always turns red and it feels really itchy. But, no matter the condition is, I'm still working on Wretch, even now. The deadline is coming closer and I think I'm gonna use my one-day free to finish it. It's almost the end of August. I'm so glad that it can stand up to Chapter 10. Usually, when I get bored on writing, I stop it and move on to next project. But not with this one, I'm dedicated to finish it, no matter what. Well, have a nice day.
Sorry if I couldn't post for a few days back. I'm still not used to work with Windows, coz back then I used Mac.

Moving On to Chapter 9...

Ugh, the air is getting hotter and hotter...maybe because it's summer now. I used to love summer, until I couldn't handle the heat and now I hate it. I love autumn more...<3
Oh yeah, about my novel, it's still in progress. I just want you to know that I don't abandon it, I'm still working on it, even though I'm super busy.
Here's an ice cream picture for you. Hope it can cool down the heat
hahahhaa
Oh crap..now I want to eat an ice cream...

Hello August!

Today is the first day of August and the sun is shining bright! Yup, August is my favorite month in the year, because my birthday is in this month and August is my lucky month too! As I mentioned you before, the deadline for Wretch is August 31st. My novel is almost complete, since I have tons of ideas, thanks to my dream. My August wish is that everyone in this world can be happy and healthy!

That's all for now. Happy August! :D

Chapter 6 and 7 finished!

It took a while for me to finish both chapter 6 and 7. I dunno why I suddenly feel so lazy and want to stay in bed forever. Is it because I'm getting older or because school has started again? Yup, school has started again. The new school year has invited me to its wonderful and hard world. What a drag...This is my last year in middle school, and I still haven't decided which school I'm going for the next three years. If I can wish for something, I wish time can stop so I can stay in bed and sleep for as long as I want. But that won't happen, of course. I wanna wish so this project I'm working on can be done in the end of August, or perhaps a little earlier.
OMG, I'm so in love with Avril Lavigne's What The Hell! I can't stop listening to that amazing song!

I Want Radiance!

Does anyone know where I can buy Alyson Noel's Radiance? It is New York Times bestseller, and I really want it. The cover is soo attractive that I can't get my eyes off it! Radiance is recommended for young teenagers starting from age 11.

Here is the cover. I hope you can contact me if you see a book with that cover.

Thanks!

Finally I can publish the image..what a relief...

Oh Great...Edward is Starting to be Like Mitsuru

aaaa...I fall in love with motorcycles from the first sight! They look so amazing and hot! So that's why I put a motorcycle--Ducati--in my novel. It seems that the only character suitable for having stuffs like that is Edward. Mike seems so childish that maybe he doesn't know how to ride it, while Seth is a werewolf, so he doesn't need one. And for the girls...forget about it. I feel that Ed is starting to be like Mitsuru in Persona 3! They're both smart and rich, and popular too, but lack of romance and love experiences. Ahh..I wanna play Persona 3 Portable, but I have to finish my work first..and my shoulders start to hurt again.

Chapter 3 and 4 finished!!!

Thanks to my friends, I have finished chapter 3 and 4! Yay! I couldn't finished this chapter if you didn't help me with your brilliant ideas and knowledge!

Right now I'm working on chapter 5! I slept off this afternoon because I was really tired of karaoke with my friends, one of them is the one who helped me through this novel problem!

Oh, I can't wait to publish this novel! I hope you'll like it! >w<

Sincerity, me.

Dawn, I Want You!

Now I'm addicted to strange creatures, especially bats. I want to pet one, the one that Edward has, Dawn. Bats are sooo adorable,seeing them makes me fly to heaven. I was thinking about the mascot of my novel, when I suddenly remembered about bats, so I decided to put it in my novel and named it Dawn, an eighteen-centimeter high female bat, with orange eyes. I decided that Edward is the most suitable guy to be her master, because he's kind of creepy in some ways.
Well, in Ther Melian Laruen has Peregrine, and in my novel Edward has Dawn. Kind of cute, isn't it?

Ther Melian: Revelation by Shienny M.S.

Ahh, sorry if I've been posting so much today! I really like to post things, it's one of my hobbies lately. So now, after I read Rampant, I read Ther Melian: Revelation. It's original from my country, so we should be proud of this one. Let me tell you a bit about this novel.

Title : Ther Melian: Revelation

Series: Ther Melian

Author: Shienny M.S.

Publisher: PT. Elex Media Komputindo, Indonesia

Rating: 7 out of 10 or 4 out of 5

This book tells about two main protagonist, Vrey and Valadin. Vrey is a thief in Kucing Liar group, lives in Myldrid, a small town in Ther Melian continent. She really likes to steal things, anything valuable. She is a Vier-Elf, the half breed of Human and Elvar.

While Valadin is an honored Elvar and knight, Eldynn. He lives in Falthemnar and has a mission to bring his race, Elvar, back to glory.So Vrey and Valadin went on a journey, separated from each other, but in the end they met each other. They were friends long ago, but Vrey thought him as an enemy. What will happen next?

I've finished reading the first book, so I'm looking forward to read the second one. The cover and pictures inside are really nice. Once you start reading that book it's hard for you to let it go.

Well, so now I'm waiting for the time to hunt the next book while finishing my own novel! It seems that I won't be able to catch the deadline. TT_TT

'Sister' is Not There Anymore!

Umm...I just wanna tell you this, the title of the novel I'm working on has been changed. Why? The reason is it just doesn't fit with the story. So I've found the new title: 'Wretch'. The meaning of that word is not nice at all, I know that, but that fits sooo much that I wanna jump of the 100-floor building.

That's all I wanna tell you. Sorry to bother you all!

Am I Dying? 0_o

Lately I've been thinking a lot about death and disease. Every second people die in this world, and I wonder when will be my turn (hope it's not too close 'coz I still haven't finished my novel). I even dreamt about death. I remember all my friends died and I was shot, of course it's just a dream. But I've come into a realization. Dying is what people fear most. No matter how you've prepared, when the time is about to come you always get scared. It's normal, though. Everyone will die, including you and me. No one is immortal (except those immortals in my novel hahaha).

There are so many things that can cause death. From what humans do to mother nature's will. Eat too much fast food can cause cancer and bam! Welcome to the afterlife. I'm worried 'coz lately I've been eating lots of fast food, but thank goodness I didn't gain any weight. I wonder if deep inside my body I'm dying, because of fast food...That's not funny T_T.

So what I'm trying to tell is, use your time wisely. Remember, time is money. Don't waste it or you'll regret it later.

Chapter 1 AND 2 Finished!

Yay...I finally can finish Chapter 1 and 2. Chapter 1 took quite some time, but Chapter 2 is finished only in two days! That's because I have a lot of free time and tons of ideas!
I'm glad I managed to finish until Chapter 2, even though there are still many chapters to do and the deadline is not far away anymore. I hope I can finish this novel before the deadline!
That's all I wanna write right now. My hands and shoulders are hurt because I typed so much. I'm gonna hit the sack in 5 minutes. I can't wait to post again!
Thank you! >.<

Rampant by Diana Peterfreund

Since I've got nothing to do, and I'm stuck on ideas, so I decide to take a break for a moment. I want to tell you about the novels I read lately. Here's a good one.

Title: Rampant
Author: Diana Peterfreund
Page number: 400, more or less
From my judgment: 4,5 stars out of 5

This novel is about unicorns that killed many humans and became their enemies until they became extinct 150 years ago. But it seems that they have come back to live. Astrid, the main character, is a unicorn hunter. Her mother always told her that unicorns are not that beautiful behind their good-looking body, what I mean is their heart. She hunts for unicorns while finding new experiences in her life.

It's a great novel that makes you don't wanna close it until you finish reading it. This novel is not that new, since it was published in the USA in 2009, but new in my country, Indonesia. So, if you're bored and looking for something exciting, I think Rampant is a great choice.

Dammit I can't publish the image of the cover. Stupid error...
I'll try again in the next post

Pending... -,-

Oh no...it has been a few days since I last wrote my novel! TT_TT It's not because I didn't want to write again, but every time I wanted to write I always got carried away by some block buster movies on TV, especially Star Movies, they always show the best ones and great detective series on FOX and AXN. Huft...no wonder why my eyes won't heal from minus if I still keep watching TV until midnight.
So, from now, I've got a new schedule. During this long holiday I can wake up late and go whenever I want, but I determine to finish my novel first. The deadline is almost there... *cry*
Thank you for reading this. I hope you don't be like me, a lazy novelist. Hahahaha, just kidding. I'm not that lazy. ;)

I'm Working on a New Project!

Hi there! Sorry for being offline for quite some time! I've been busy working on my school tasks, but from now till the mid of July I'm free! Yay ^^
Right now I'm working on my new project. I'm making a novel! I have a plan to send it to the publisher to get my novel published. I've finished the prologue, so I'm in Chapter 1 now
I'm looking forward to send it, maybe one day I'm gonna post some parts of the novel here!
That's what I'm doing right now. Thank you for reading!
Best regards,
A.T.
