"Nothing is too high for the daring of mortals: we storm heaven itself in our folly." – Horace
Hey everyone, it's National Novel Writing Month! And I've decided to use the Dominique Weasley story that I've had in my head for my entry this year. The title is (tentatively) Just Left of Logical. This is a brief snippet from the first chapter:
I was thrilled to be starting my sixth year at Hogwarts. It would be my first away from Victoire, meaning that I would no longer be dragged out of bed at the crack of dawn to have my hair and makeup done (I had to agree to allow her to do this in order to stay on the Quidditch team – my mother’s rule, of course), I could eat whatever I wanted at the table, rather than having to sneak fattening foods into my bag when Victoire’s back was turned, and perhaps I could find a boy that liked me, instead of one who tried to woo me in order to get closer to my sister.
At least, those were my wishes before a letter arrived and my world burst spectacularly into flames just days before returning to school.
All right, perhaps that’s putting it a bit dramatically, but that was the way it felt at the time.It's my first time writing first person from only one POV, so it should be interesting. I quite like the story so far. (: Let me know what you think!
I WILL continue to update Raindrops and hopefully Wings as well.
Love Always,
Kayla
