I finally found an avatar that reflects my character (remotly)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ha, i'm sure you all wanted to know that. See, Calixte (my character. I had to rename her. I decided that Aranel was too Tolkien-ish.) has eyes the color of raspberrys. Not your most common eye color. Thats why I had such a hard time finding something with a purply-red eye on it.
I've lost almost all of my insiration for writing. I don't know why. I guess I just get discouraged, because my writers block is insanely severe. I mean, I've got the whole story planned out, at least the major events, but I can't figure out good ways to connect them, and then when I have a good way, it usually requires rewriting the rest of the book. >< oh the joys of being a writer.
