yes indeed. A prolouge to my chapter book... currently on chapter four...

Shaman by Twilight


Once upon a time... Wait.. that's only how you start happy stories, and this is no happy story. Let's start that over.
A few years ago, there once lived an unfortunate girl. She was shunned by everyone, and the outsiders could never figure out why. The girl's name was Melanie.
Melanie was a nice child, always kinds, even when treated poorly. Despite her efforts to be liked, people hated her because of her parents. No matter what Melanie did, people couldn't accept her.
Many outsiders asked what her parents did that was so bad, for many people had met them and found them friendly.
It was never about how nice they were, it was about what they could do during the twilight hours.
Little did the parents know.... that their daughter would be the most powerful of all....

Did you know that "Melanie" means "dark" in Gree? *first thing that came to mind when reading this* Foreshadowing, I love foreshadowing. And simply because you have some, well not simply but anyay, I'd like to hear more of this~

I didn't know Melanie meant that, but now that I do know that, i realize that it fits very well. Once i type up my story, I will post it in here, but it might be awhile... a LOOOOOOONNNNNNNGGGGG while.... but thank you.

I thought you might be interested cause I noticed myself how aptly you named her. Actually, I find it intriguing that you name your characters without meanings, when I myself structure the personalities on the meanings of names.

....Anyway! I know how you feel..and that's specifically why I won't say "hurry up!" or stuff like that...sometimes I just hate writing.

Oh, and you're welcome.

I actually just hate typing up writing. I like to write it out... and I choose names just randomly... I'm not good at names... I actually got the name 'Melanie' from the book "The Host" by Stephanie Meyer

Ah that makes sense. I remember before I had my laptop I wrote out everything, which actually was very tedious but it helped me pass my school classes without paying attention! xd Ah, the Host was a good book.
Although I still enjoy writing out my stories; it's just easier to do sometimes. And as of right now, I'm very into Greek names so I've got this list of about fifty of some of my favourite names and their meanings, and pretty much choose them depending on the character's personality. Before it was Japanese, and occasionally I'll go into Gaelic...
