more covers!

This is two days' worth of work for me. :) BTW, I'm thinking of doing a tutorial video on this right after I figure out how to record it... 


This was the quickest one out of this batch.... all I had to do was find a picture, crop it a little, and put words on top!

I redid this one so many times... I fail at making covers with people in them!

I made this one twice, from start to finish, because I forgot where I saved it on my laptop. Silly me.

Actually, this was the easiest one to do. All I did was get the face picture, then layer the earth picture on top!

This was pretty fun to make and I gave all the little pictures weird names on my laptop! (ex: WHATDOESTHEFOXSAY.jpg)

Getting the person in there was pretty much the hardest think I've had to do in a cover...

It was actually really fun making the girl look like a silhouette!

people to write about

I was bored so I thought, "Why not make a bunch of characters without an actual story?!" So I did. You're welcome to use them, if you want! I've written some of them before, but I've changed some things for those people. Also, they're not as detailed as they could be, so you can experiment with that too. And I'm really bad at names (people have even told me this to my face), so sorry about that! XD

  • Name: Lilian Hayden
  • Age: younger than a teen, maybe about 8-10
  • Gender: F
  • Appearance: Short for her age. Dark blonde hair which she really hates, as she thinks the color looks weird with her slightly darker skin. Blue/gray eyes.
  • Personality: VERY mature for her age. She has an advanced reading level, and because of that, she knows about more advanced (middle school) topics. She uses big words a lot in conversations, just to show off. However, she has this one friend (you can make up this person) who hasn't ever seen this side of her, and knows her just as a sweet and innocent kid.
  • Background: Her parents have quite a bit of money to spend on her education and well-being in general. They've gotten her to skip a grade, but she feels really out of place among all those older and taller kids.

  • Name: Jason Halloway
  • Age: 17-19
  • Gender: M
  • Appearance: Fairly tall (about 5'11") and average weight. Light brown hair that always gets in his even-lighter-brown eyes. He has creases around the corners of his mouth, and dimples.
  • Personality: He's nice. Too nice. Everyone is always taking advantage of him, and he tries to be as indifferent as possible, but it's actually hurting him and he'd never tell anyone. He'd die for a lot of people, including those he doesn't know well, and he can talk to anyone. Basically, if he was a character in Divergent, he'd be in Abnegation without a doubt. 
  • Background: He's from a middle class family, and is an only child. His parents frequently fight and he's stuck in between it all. He loves them both and is scared that they'll split apart.

  • Name: Cindy Donnelly
  • Age: 12-13
  • Gender: F
  • Appearance: Smallish and thin. Black hair in a pixie cut, dark eyes, pretty pale. Described as unattractive. Despite her size, she has an intimidating look about her. 
  • Personality: Mean and sarcastic most of the time. If you leave her alone, she might even be able to look your way without smirking, but if you rub in the fact that she's short, you'll instantly regret it. However, when she's tired, she doesn't talk as much and actually accepts hugs. She's known for trusting no one.
  • Background: Her older brother, Andrew, has gone off to college and she doesn't miss him (which says something about her relationship with her family.) She keeps her distance from her parents, but when they talk, it's usually about her grades and boring things like that.

  • Name: Josh Kaplan
  • Age: 13-16, somewhere in that range
  • Gender: M
  • Appearance: With shortish black hair and really dark eyes, he's pretty average looking except for a scar on his left cheek. (You can make up a backstory for him about this!)
  • Personality: Generally quiet and reserved, a bookish type. He's also a little sporty, though not many people know this. At school he's one of those guys who flies under the radar while making the honor roll every time. He's really shy/introverted, but don't underestimate him for this!
  • Background: He lives with only his dad, as his mom mysteriously disappeared. He has a slight crush on this girl (who you can make up) but they never talk because he's too scared to say hi.
I'll write more later! This was actually really fun to do :)

i made a cover!


Because it's been awhile again, I'll randomly talk about my life. 
So while I was doing random things, the doom and horror of the swingdancing unit descended upon me. My partner seems nice, though, so that's good! We don't really dance, just goof off and run around the gym.
 And I have my cover for the HC sequel:

Are you judging my pen name?! Don't judge my pen name!



Hey, while I'm at it, why don't I put up a few terrible-quality pics I took? :)

Yay for pics of the moon for no reason :D


See above.

Yet again :D

Just because.

OMG IT'S A SELFIE!!!1

Farewell for now :)
