The Beach and a Picnik!

Hello!
Well I had the most amazing week ever!
Me and my wonderful family went down to the magical land of Port Aransas for out presummer vactaion! =) It was quite relaxing. All I did all week was lay on a beach, drink Peace Tea and eat Cajun food. Ahhhh! I miss it already . -_-
Here are a few shot I took whilest I was relaxing:

Yes, that is a dolphin...not a shark.
Last night, I discovered a majorly amazing website called Picnik.
Odds are, you have probobly heard of this witchcraft. But! Last night was the first time I've been able to get on and test it out!
I went through and revamped my Nanowrimo cover, the one I showed ya'll in my last post, and I created on for my current work in progress!

Writing! And other fancy things....

Hello my wonderful readers! Tho there are few of you, I love you all nonetheless!
Sorry, for the lack of posting :( I've been quite busy with school, SAT, work and friends!
Some of my most recent adventures have been:
Learning to Waltz
Taking the SAT....in brightly colored mismatched socks (Cuz I'm just classy like that)
FINALLY getting my room completely unpacked
Getting to see my wonderful JOY friends preform The Music Man!
As you may or may not have know, I partake the wonderful world of Nanowrimo every November. Basically what you do is write a 50k novel in 30 days!
It. Is. Intense! But really really fun!
The novel I wrote was about a Garden Gnome, Iz, and his adventures trying to rescue the kidnapped princess from the evil goblin king! If this sounds really lame, I tell you it is not! In a few years, you will see it in lights on Broadway! Not because it is a musical, because it's not, but because Broadway is amazing like that!
Any who, I've been working my butt of trying to edit this monster I've created....But lately it seems like I've just been putting lipstick on a pig O.o If you aren't familiar with this expression, it is not good! *Laughs*
Well, to relieve the stress of editing,  I've decided to write another story! (I can always use more monsters running around!) This one is about a vegan vampire in my Garden Gnome world! It's quite an amazing plot, which I'm sure will change several times in the next few weeks of writing!
Here is a picture I've decided to use for the cover art:

I think it looks rather swell!



Well, that's all I have to report for now! I'll post a portion of my Novel tomorrow!
READER QUESTION!!!
How do you go about editing? Are there any tips or tricks you'd like to share? :)
