It is a YA romance...the link takes you to the prolouge, there are however around 5 chapters posted. My question is, if I created the finished book as an ebook would you buy it?

Thanks.

Sarah.

I am looking for either online groups or a local group in the area of Kings Lynn, UK. If not any ideas of other groups I could join, thanks.

Please help, I had this text and I have no idea what it says.....

I have a completed MS for a YA romance, my question is, do I just send it the appropriate publishers or should I get an agent.

“Debbie Conway?” a squeaky voice said.

Debbie fluttered her emerald green eyes open. Damn it, she thought, caught napping again. One of these days she would get in real trouble. Maybe today was the day. She sat up, wiped a small amount of salvia of her chin and looked into the eyes of her English teacher, Mrs. Row. The woman had nice eyes, if it were not for the unstylish black rimmed glasses she insisted on wearing. She narrowed them and shook her head.

“Debbie, I think you better come to the front where I can keep an eye on you.”

Debbie groaned, gave a quick glance at her best friend, Wendy, her nose lost in the book. No wonder she had not warned her. Debbie could have kicked herself, it was the third time in the past week she had fallen asleep in class. The teachers thought it was due to lack of sleep, in a way it was, but not for the reason they thought. She had dreamed about the accident so many times, but lately her dreams had changed. She wanted a happy thought, which was where Joey came in. Okay he was not real, not really, just the guy on the poster and in her favourite television show. So what if he only came to life in her dreams. He was hers and he made her happy.

Only problem, Debbie found she wanted to escape to her dream world more and more often. Escaping her real life, away from the pain and memories of that day. It was about time people gave her a break. The only person she could rely on was Wendy, and Joey. He would always be there, ready to love her no matter what.

Debbie sat at her desk, listening to her teacher giving a speech on saving the planet. His voice droned on and on.

{Outside the classroom, the sun shone brightly, its rays seeped through the glass. Debbie suppressed a small yawn, as the warmth from the sun made her sleepy. She leant forward on the desk and folded her arms, her head resting on them as her eyes suddenly felt heavy. She took a deep breath and relaxed; her green eyes began to close as strands of brown hair fell down covering them. The sound of the teacher faded away.

Music played, its bass thumping as she strutted her stuff on the dance floor. Unfamiliar faces watched her as she swayed to the beat. Lights flashed at the club's entrance, which caught her attention. Paparazzi. She realised then he had come.

The women literally fell at his feet, as they called out his name.

Debbie stopped dancing; bit her lip as she dared to look over to where he was. Finding him amongst the crowd, she looked him up and down, her mouth open. Joey looked as good in the flesh as in her posters. Did she really think he wouldn’t. No was the answer.

Catching her eye, he glided towards her, a smile spread across his lips. He had promised her he would come and now here he was. Almost within in her reach. She heard her name, but his lips were not moving. Who was calling out her name?}

“Debbie. Debbie,” a voice called her name.

On hearing her name being repeatedly called, Debbie slowly opened her eyes. Squinting as the bright light replaced the darkness. She blinked three times before opening them wide, to take in her surroundings.

For a minute, Debbie believed she was still dreaming. A dream she had once before where she was at school, in her underwear. Shaking her head, the classroom came into focus. Debbie could have sworn she was in her bed at home. She prayed no one else had seen her. Of course, the owner of the voice was Wendy, her best friend. Doing what a best friend should, looking out for her. The girls had been best friends for years, now both fourteen, they were inseparable.

Debbie turned to face her, wiped away the small amount of saliva, which escaped while she dozed. “Thanks,” she stammered as she sat up in the chair and straightened her uniform, nodding to Wendy.

It did not bear thinking about what she would do without her. She straightened her tie which had become loose as she napped. She hated the tie, having to wear it no matter the weather. It was part of the uniform all the girls loathed, along with the grey skirt/trousers, white blouse and the red jumper. Bright red.

Luckily the school permitted girls to wear trousers. Still, some of the girls wore skirts just above their knees. Debbie would never wear a skirt to school as she hated the shape of her legs. To her they were skinny, not shapely. Not like the girls in the magazines, or Wendy’s. Debbie knew this was due to Wendy’s height, as she stood a few inches taller than her. A few inches made a huge difference when it came to the way their legs looked.

Since they gained height, they had not realised how much smaller the new first years were. It dawned on her, how they would soon be in the fourth year of high school and the responsibility of choosing their GCSE’s loomed.

“You know,” Wendy began, “You’ll have to stop daydreaming, and come and live in the real world,” she said, shaking her head. Her blonde hair swished side to side like in the movies.

To Debbie Wendy’s hair was perfect, unlike her own boring brown hair, she hated it. It never seemed to shine or go the way she wanted it, it had a life of it’s own. At least that is what she told herself.

“One of these days you’ll get caught daydreaming, and I won’t be there to help you,” Wendy stated.

Debbie rolled her eyes. True, but I’ll get my man one day, you just wait and see. Who’ll be laughing then, me that’s who, Debbie thought as she bent down, tucked her hair behind her ear as she picked up her bag.

A smile spread across her lips as she adjusted the bag on her knees. She delved inside it, looking for her oval mirror. Upon finding it, Debbie flipped it open and peered at her face. She held it up double-checking for spots. Satisfied, she closed it and slipped it back in her bag, hoping no one had seen her. When someone called out at her from across the room she knew someone had witnessed her spot check.

“You know, if I were you, I wouldn’t look in that mirror too long you might just crack it,” Karen Langley snorted.

Karen’s cronies sat behind her and giggled as she cupped her hand and pretended to check herself out, imitating Debbie’s actions.

“Karen,” Debbie tutted as she turned to face Karen. The girl was pretty, with hair Debbie would die for, but the girl was a downright thug. Karen continued to mimic her as Debbie caught sight of the redness on the end

A few days ago my male cocker spaniel nibbled on the back of my female cocker, she is only six months old. He is just over a year.

We were out for around six hours, leaving them alone together as we always have when we have to go out.

When we got back we noticed she had fur missing on her back in a small patch, we realised the male dog had been doing it. I assume due to the fact he has been attempting to mount her, this is part of it. I have now separated them when we go out and at night, as they sleep usually in the outhouse.

Just wondered if this was the case, have been keeping an eye on him.

Thanks.

I have been working on my novel for two years now and need to get it right. I had a friend re-read the first chapter. After her comments on the opening I need to know if others feel the same way, I am not going to explain what she said, as I want to here your thoughts.

It is YA romance and the italics are dreams, some are thoughts, but you will know the difference. Please let me know I am really interested to know, before I re-write it again for the 10th time.

I have a musical in my novel, which my main character is in, but I need a second one, this is taken place back in 1995, so no new musicals, I have at present got A midnight summers dream, but as I am not to familiar with it, wondered if anyone else had any ideas. It has to have the leads kissing as this is a part Debbie and Mark will be practicing before curtains up.

Thanks.

I am currently editing my novel of 54 chapters and 93,000 words, which took me two years to finally write. (First wrote it when I was 16, now a busy mum of four so that is the reason it took two years. Plus it was 9 chapters when I first wrote it, then went to 30 odd, in the last year I added over 20 more.)

Any thoughts, on loving it or hating it.

I don't mind it, but I am ready to get stuck into the next one.

Thanks.

Are they not worried about copyright? I would suggest joining writing sites and adding links to go read it there.

Just my thoughts. What does everyone else think? Am I being I don't know, worried for there ideas.....?

I have only just started to go into charity shops for books, as I was looking for books for research for my genre and have picked up so many bargains. I cannot believe how many books I have got for my money.

So far I have only had one book I could not get into, which I may just take it back as a donation. I like to keep my books, as I read them several times.

Does anyone else do this?

Sarah.

I would like to know if you would read more of this novel. I have completed it already, but would like to hear thoughts on it. Not so much grammar and spelling, I know there are some odd pieces in need of editing.

If you would like to read, please do so,

Hi I am a mother of four and its time I stopped stating my children are the reason I am over weight, people say I am not, but I still feel I am.

I am 5ft 3 and weigh in just over 128lbs, I want to loose just under a stone so I can be 9 stone again.

I weighed this once before I discovered that I was pregnant for a fourth time. I lost the weight using weight watchers, but I just can't do it again, I need meals I can cook for the whole family without counting points.

I also want to tone up my stomach, I have tried every diet and pill this time and even used a wrap on my stomach to no avail. I am at a loss, I suffer with backache, but want to do what I can to loose the weight and tone my stomach.

I have a wii fit board now, will the exercises on there be of any help?

I have for the past four days, worked out on it for 30mins a day.

Thanks.

I have a novel I am in the process of editing, it is complete, and would love it to be published, but would like to ask if anyone would read it?

It's about a young girl called, Debbie and she basically she lives in a dream world, dreaming of meeting the guy in her dream world.

In the book I cover many issues, first bra, kiss, periods, bullying and a few others, and of course love....thanks...
