I got weird looks when I used the words 'chagrined' and 'dismayed' in everyday language. (ex. "I told them they couldn't play on the iPads, much to their chagrin" and "You might want to tell them, or they'll be very dismayed.") Why? I'm a writer, okay? And are those so unusual words to use? It's not all that uncommon, right?
And I may be past my writer's block that my characters have been erecting for the past month. Dare I hope? Maybe, just maybe, I might be moving on!

About Me!Hannah writes to satisfy her imagination. She's written six books so far--five of which need to be rewritten--and is working on a seventh. She ranges through a variety of genres, but favors contemporary YA, fixing broken characters. She wants to use her writing to change people and bring hope. She's currently going to college for Nursing and that takes up most of her writing time. She's a rather stereotypical writer, talking to imaginary friends, eavesdropping on people at the store, secretly being nosy, stashing herself away in her room with a paper and pen and chocolate and her teddy bear. She loves Jesus, the way the morning smells, her family of seven (four siblings), old movies, fairy tales, candles at night and helping people. She writes on another blog at nerdywriter.blogspot.com to hopefully build her chances of publication. My Author Site:Archives
