My dark side

Hi everyone!

First. I'm sorry. I know that the post was supposed to be yesterday but my life is in ruins. Or rather, I fell into the dark. This will not happen again!

Second. Today a little shorter. Why? Because I'm fed up. Today will be different than always. I won't tell you about books

But to the point

Each of us has two faces. Light and dark side. Every day two wolves fight for domination. We feed them with our decisions (according to the Indian legend). But sometimes wy stand still. We don't know what to do next. We want to give up. We want to forget. Each of us is different. I repeat it all the time. Therefore, each of us deals differently. The most important thing is never to give up. You cannot go back to the past. We must take responsibility for our actions. Learn on your mistakes.

I'll just give you some advice today. 

Close your eyes. Take a deep breath. Hold your head high. Open your eyes. And fight.

Please don't ask. Just trust someone who doesn't have the strength to fight anymore. Trust someone who lives in their own world and makes many mistakes. Yet I am here writing these words to you. Because it was the books that saved me. And now history repeats itself.

It's all for now!

See you soon my dreamers

My first friends


 Hi everyone!

As a child I had problems finding friends. I liked to get my own way and it still is. When I started growing up there were other problems. Nobody understands me. I escaped to the world of fiction (and he's still on the run). I had a communication problem. When the depression started, the heroes of the book helped me.

Then maybe let's start from the beginning!

Basic information from "Wikipedia":

Percy Jackson & the Olympians, often shortened to Percy Jackson or PJO, is a pentalogy of fantasy adventure novels written by American author Rick Riordan, and the first book series in the Camp Half-Blood Chronicles. Five supplementary books, along with graphic novel versions of each book in the first series have also been released. More than 69 million copies of the books have been sold in more than 35 countries.

As of October 28, 2011, the books have been on The New York Times Best Seller list for children's book series for 245 weeks. The first book was adapted into a film titled Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief in 2010, which was commercially successful, but due to major deviations from the books received mixed reviews from fans around the world. An adaptation of the second book, titled Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters, was released in 2013.

A TV series adaptation is currently in the works for Disney+, but as of January 2021, no release date has been announced.

Why is important to me?

I have always loved Greek mythology. The opportunity to read an adventure novel about a modern hero was incredible. Fighting depression, I wanted to be like him. I wanted to feel special. I wanted to be a child of the Greek god. The whole story was about the fight between good and evil, but their private problems reflected my problems.

The beginning of an amazing friendship!

After reading the entire series, I wanted more and more. I began to imagine that all the characters are real. That they live together behind me. That I am one of them. They helped me survive when it was really bad. Over time, I started to connect stories. More and more fictional characters began to surround me. I was starting to lose touch with reality.

Now they're just a memory. Their place was replaced by other heroes. The ones I made myself. To this day I live fiction. Conversations with the heroes of the novels help me solve problems and give me good advice.

Next time I will tell you about THESE heroes!

I'M NOT NORMAL. I LIVE IN FICTION AND I CAN'T ESCAPE FROM IT!

See you soon my dreames

Reviews - "Beloved"


 Hi everyone!

Today it's time for a review.

Let me start with the Corinne Michaels books. It's a combination of romance and eroticism. He is a deadly handsome businessman and ex-soldier who always gets what he wants. She's a gorgeous ad agency worker who doesn't believe in love. What can happen when these worlds come together. 

Nothing good.

This is the first series that I have read from this author. But not the first of its kind. She is definitely far behind my favorite Laurein Paige, but the emotions she convey in the book are incredible.

But let's go back to the book.

The action begins with memories. Painful memories for the main character - Katarzyna Pope. No wonder that our main character is a handsome man whom he meets by chance. You won't be surprised if I say that he will work with her in the following pages.

My heart was stolen by a wonderful description because I have the same feelings as her. However, this was omitted from the book. The author has focused mainly on one. The main character's monologues about the same appeared all the time. She felt sorry for herself all the time. It was very frustrating.

The plot is interesting, well-described, but far-fetched.

The behavior of both characters is idiotic. She rejects him because ... Well, I don't even know why! Its reasons are vague and forcefully exaggerated. In turn, its reasons are of greater caliber and you can believe them, but we don't get to know them until the middle of the second part. 

Exactly the second part - Beholden

Cat and Jakcson's love story continues. Most of the action takes place in the hospital. The descriptions of her emotions when he almost dies are unusual, but that's it. Nothing happened for more than half. Like any other novel, this novel ended happily.

Sometimes I was fed up. I was reading by force. I lost my enthusiasm. In my case it is not difficult. As a writer, I am often bored with other people's books. I would change something in every story. But about that another time.

Summarizing!

This book has many disadvantages. Especially the Polish translation, which has many shortcomings. However, I recommend the book to anyone who is a fan of romance and eroticism.

1. Find inspiration


Hi everyone!

First of all: happy new year!

By the way. Everything has a beginning. Anyone movie, series, book or sports competition. Every story starts somewhere. You already know how my adventure with writing began. Now I will tell you how to start each story.

Today I will tell you about step one.

Find inspiration!!!

It could really be anything. My first stories were about characters from my favorite fairy tales. Currently, it is quite a popular genre - fanfiction. A lot of people write different stories about their favourite characters. 
When I started creating my own heroes, I was inspired by trends such as werewolves and vampires. To this day, many books and films have inspired me.

For example, a year ago, when I was reading a book about angels, I was delighted with the presented world. However, I was disappointed with the main character and the course of events. Then I also decided to write my own story about angels. 
Managed to! (but about that another time)

However, an author will never be satisfied with his work. (but about that also another time)

My first story that started my "career" was inspired by me. In it, I described my world. Family, friends and all the problems. It helped me fight with depression. I opened myself to the world. I showed what I really felt.

Over the years, I realized this was a mistake. The book never saw the light of day. The world will only see this book when I change storyline. And that is a lot of work.

Now I'm working on two stories. they differ in every way.
One is about the war. I want to show history in a different way than before. I want to tell a story of two people in an unconventional way. The second story is about the modern world. The story is about my desires and a life I will never experience.

Every story starts somewhere. You never know how it will turn out. You can plan everything out, but it will change over time. I know what I'm saying. I have thousands of notes. Most are records of the various changes.

Writing is like taking a picture. You need to know what is most important. You have to be able to choose accessories and light. Over time, you can enjoy a beautiful picture after many hours of work. 
Writing is like painting with words. That's why I love it so much. Because you can create a world out of nothing.

Summarizing. 
Anything can be an inspiration. The most important thing is to be able to create something original out of it. You have to be careful not to create plagiarism. It is important that what inspired us was described in an interesting way. Anyone can write. You just have to want it because it's a long creative process.

See you soon my dreamers

My first time

 


Hi everyone!

Everyone experiences their first time in their own way. It all depends on the point of view. As a child, I started reading books on my own. But my first time was thanks to J. K. Rowlling when I was reading 'Harry Potter".

For those who don't know this world.
Harry Potter is a series of seven fantasy novels written by British author J. K. Rowling. The novels chronicle the lives of the young wizard Harry Potter and his friends Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley, all of whom are students at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. The main storyline concerns Harry's fight with Lord Voldemort, an evil sorcerer who wants to kill everyone Muggles.

Why this series?
Harry Potter is special to me because I moved to another world for the first time while reading. In the eyes of my imagination, I participated in all adventures. These were the first decent books that I read myself. I owe it to my mother who also read them.

My feelings.
As a little girl I fell in love with this story. Now that I am grown up, it's a bad story for kids. The main character doesn't make mistakes and you know from the very beginning how it will end. Moreover, the author doesn't represent anything and all she cares about is money. But that's just my opinion.

My favorites.
I've always loved villains. Therefore, no one will be surprised when I say that my favorite character is Draco Malfoy. Now I'd rather read fan stories than go back to books. In the original series, I miss elements for an adult audience. However, the world created by Rowling inspires me. 

As a little girl I waited all night for a letter from Hogwarts. I dreamed of studying in this amazing school. It was the beginning of my writing story.

It's all for now!

See you soon my dreamers

How it started?



 Hi everyone!

My adventure with books began before I was born. My parents loved reading. So when I was born they passed on this passion o me. It all started with Winnie the Pooh - a children's novel by A.A. Milne from 1926.

Every night when I went to sleep, they would sit next to me with a book in hand and take me to the magical world of the Hundred Acre Wood. I fall asleep wrapped in world about the adventures of Winnie the Pooh and his firends. I was fascinated by the world created in my head by words. I wanted to find myself in this forest and experience the same adventures as they did.

But it was impossible.

Even as a little girl, I was passionate about the worlds described in the pages of books. However, there was always something wrong. Something was missing. I was not completely satisfied. Then my passion was born. I started drawing different stories about Winnie the Pooh. Over time, I started creating my own heroes. When I grow up, instead of drawing I started writing new stories.

Now when I look at "Winnie the Pooh" who is growing up with me, I always smile. Because I know that if it weren't for this book, I would never be who I am!

It's time...


Hi everyone,

I was looking for motivation to start this project for many years. I finally found the courage in myself.

It will by like a diary. I will not describe my secret feelings and thoughts. I will describe my world on the basis of books and films. I'll be posting reviews once a month.

As a novice writer, I would like to tell you about my the creative process. About my inspirations and problems while writing. Maybe someday you will by the reviewer of my books. Who knows what awaits us in the future.

All photos belong to me. Please do not copy!

Posts will appear every Saturday at 8pm.

See you soon my dreamers
