Just letting you guys know that it might be a few days to a week before I post again.
I'm getting all four of my wisdom teeth pulled on Monday so I won't feel like doing much of anything right away.
If you sent in a quiz form and I didn't answer, don't worry I'll get to it. :)
I've got a cold today so I have just been laying around then I decided that since I don't post on Sundays I might want to tell you about my being gone.
TTYL!

Three people have entered the contest so far but nobody has gotten a perfect score.
I won't give out the names but here are the rankings so far.
EDIT: I decided that half-points are unfair and could possibly be hard to calculate so I'm not going to do half-points. If you got a question almost right it will still be wrong. Sorry.
There are two people tied for first place with 40 out of 53 points each.
The person in second has 29 out of 53 points.
Feel free to enter again and try and get the right answers to some of the questions you answered incorrectly.
If there's a tie I'll some up with some sort of tiebreaker.

Micheal Vey
These are great books, if you like Percy Jackson you will probably like this.
I was hooked as soon as the main character (Micheal Vey) said that he doesn't look for trouble, it finds him.
Now who does that sound like?
I really enjoyed this book.
In this one Michael's mom is kidnapped and he sets out to rescue her but ends up getting captured himself.
It's a very action packed book and I loved it.
Now since I'm not very good at reviews I got the Barnes&Nobel description from the website.
(And if anyone didn't know, a $10 Barnes&Nobel gift card is the prize for my contest.)
My name is Michael Vey, and the story I’m about to tell you is strange. Very strange. It’s my story.
To everyone at Meridian High School, Michael Vey is an ordinary fourteen-year-old. In fact, the only thing that seems to set him apart is the fact that he has Tourette’s syndrome. But Michael is anything but ordinary. Michael has special powers. Electric powers.
Michael thinks he's unique until he discovers that a cheerleader named Taylor also has special powers. With the help of Michael’s friend, Ostin, the three of them set out to discover how Michael and Taylor ended up this way, but their investigation brings them to the attention of a powerful group who wants to control the electric children – and through them the world. Michael will have to rely on his wits, powers, and friends if he’s to survive.

More Quiz Info
Hey guys!
Someone asked if I was going to allow multiple entries per person and I decided that I would. (Since I did have to laugh at a few of the incorrect answers to some of the questions.)
So after you e-mail in your entry I will read it and then e-mail you back telling you how many were right and how many were wrong. BUT I will not tell you what questions had wrong answers.
I was also asked if I could keep a tally of the amount of points everyone has.
I will not be doing this as I am going to be fairly busy these next few weeks. (I'm getting all four of my wisdom teeth pulled next Monday, the 30th)
I might do an update every now and then stating how many entries I have gotten.
Also I decided that I will close the quiz before January 30 if someone gets all the questions correct.
EDIT: I found some mistakes in my quiz while I was typing up my answer key. If they had just been small mistakes like spelling I wouldn't have said anything. But some of the mistakes would effect answers so I have to fix them. If you have already sent in a quiz form I will not count that one.
I am so sorry for that.

It's going to be a little longer 'till I get the quiz up because I can't go and get the prize today because of the weather. But it's possible that I can get it tomorrow. So we'll just have to see.

I'll be posting the quiz contest soon! I have all the questions written out and ready I just need to pick up the prize and then I'll set up the quiz!
I don't know if I'm going to continue the Luke fan-fic because I'm having trouble with it. I'll write a few paragraphs, read it and then decide that it doesn't work and delete it.
Maybe Luke's story was never meant to be told.
We'll just have to see.

So since I can't put pictures up with my mom's computer and our other one is still not working I'm going to be posting fan-fiction.
So since it will be posted on here as a write it, I'll be doing less posts. Maybe once a week or less depending on how much time I get to write.
Too bad I don't have old fan-fic stored on this computer or I'd do a chapter a day type thing.
If you have ideas for fan-fic I'd love to hear them, and I might even write them!
Here's some of what I worked on earlier today. It's Luke's story from where his story in The Demigod Diaries leaves off. I hope you like it!
(All characters belong to Rick Riordan and I do not claim to own them.)

The Diary of Luke Castellan Continued.
Things haven’t
gone to well since I last had time to write. It’s been a few weeks since Thalia
and I found Annabeth and I still don’t have a real weapon. What kind of leader
am I? Letting two girls defend me, pathetic. Whenever we come across another monster
I try to borrow the knife I gave Annabeth but she refuses to let me protect
her.
I try to fight with whatever’s available. Branches, boards with nails, even a garden hose one time. But I’m just the distraction, it’s always up to Thalia and Annabeth to kill whatever we’re up against. And Annabeth is only seven, I feel horrible whenever she has to fight.
But that’s part of being a demigod.
