Just a Random Post

Hey, it's Alex! Just thought I'd make a quick post. I don't have much time on my hands due to the impossible classes I'm taking this year.

Anyway, thanks to everone that followed and subscribed! I really appreciate it.

The first thing I thought I'd talk about are names. I think names definitely define a character. When I hear the name Butch, I think of a big tall guy who plays football. But when I hear the name Francis, I think of a scrawny nerd. Not that this is always true, it's really just more of a stereotype. If you're looking for names for characters go to www.behindthename.com. They have lists of the most popular names in countries all over the world. It also lets you search by meanings, which is really helpfull.

Is anyone doing Nanowrimo this year? I don't know if you've heard of it, but its like a contest for writers to see if you can get to 50,000 words in a book. It takes place through November. My username is alexboone, go add me if you want.

Introduction

Hey my name is Alexander Boone, but you can call me Alex. I'm 15 and am a sophomore in high school. I live in Kentucky.
I love to write. I write mostly sci-fi, fantasy, and occasionally adventure novels. I'm working on a couple of books at the moment, but have yet to finish them. I'm looking for an epically awesome idea that I haven't found yet. I've been writing since I was about 9, and have pages and pages of ideas.
I'm not very good at this whole blogging thing yet, but I'll get there. If you actually read this, thanks!
