I'm still here

I can not believe the break I am coming off of. I will say the United Light started as a kind of cat and mouse thriller in concept but it more and more turning into a coming of age piece but, for an older crowd. This may feel like a bit of a different story writing wise because I am trying to invest more into who may characters are and what they would be like.

I realized I have done somethings that like, Linda I could take slack for and it's nothing you would notice unless you really thought about it.

I do not have a playlist for this because, making playlists takes up a lot of my time and unless I have a few good songs it's easier not to scramble and find music. Even though it is great when you find that perfect song. I will say you could use No Envy No Fear ny Joshua Radin for the first section.

I hope you all enjoy Chapter 14.

  1. OIC, the similarities now.

    And if you can believe it I saw another one that I am going to go ahead and change.

  2. I love how you broke the fourth wall a little, it was nice hearing from Juliana again.

  3. yeah ! an update. I thought Juliana had sold her ring and it was sweet that she wanted to give it to Elisa or did she want Elisa to no longer feel threatned by it.

  4. I didn't expect Juliana to have an STD but it is (as Sid put it) an occupational Hazard. Sawyer should keep a better eye on her, IMO

  5. I always thought Syphilis was the disease that messed with your brain.

    The more Sid/Sawyer action we see the more I start thinking they have something on the side Y/N ?

  6. squeee ! an Update

    I love a good coming-of-age story and it was also great hearing from Juliana again. Is Cortland a potential love interest ?

  7. So, is the thing you were talking about in the blog post that Sawyer and Elisa didn't notice that Juliana had the hickeys on her neck even though they noticed her short hair ?

  8. I'm surprised that Juliana's parents would even tell her what divorce is, I wonder if her finding the ring means anything.

  9. Cortland, Flag Morton and Kennedy

    Those names are so cute. Flag Morton sound just like a football players name, unless he is a real person.

  10. I can't believe Juliana helped out Patrick he is a D-bag and probably gave her the STD. I guess she is super nice that way.

  11. This totally reminded me why I hated being a waitress. Juliana should start stealing money from Flag too.

  12. Cortland seems nice enough but I don't think Sawyer is going to like him. The last part was really sweet. Glad to see you back in the saddle, Shawna.

  13. I'm soooo taking the water part as symbolism of starting over.

    " his eyes were a shade of brown so bright there was no way he could be seeing the world the same way I did"

    Love that line, Shawna

  14. I hope a picture post follows this, I'd love to see what Cortland looks like. I'm not convinced that Elisa and Juliana will ever be friends.

    ReplyDelete
  15. I was feeling for Sawyer when he was afraid that Juliana was dead I think he really cares for her.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Why is Sawyer apologizing to Elisa in the beginning ? Is it because Juliana ruined their good time.

    ReplyDelete
  17. I couldn't help but to LOL at Flag Morton. It's my new favorite name.

  18. I've been scanning this chapter to see what you could be taking slack for and I'm going with the fact that the font looks a little bigger. Either way I can't wait to see where this is going.

    Loved the way you re-introduced Juliana very cool !

  19. This is probably apart of Patty (ie Patrick's) character but he uses the wrong it's in his text message.

    AHHH I've been spending to much time with my Aunt and Uncle

  20. Sawyer is way to overprotective. I mean he can't expect her to stay with him once they are divorced. I we ever going to find out if Juliana's parents learn the truth about her being pregnant ?

  21. Is blue supposed to be a theme ? with the blue Mercedes and Elisa and Sawyer talking about the blue tie.

    ReplyDelete
  22. I know he is a total jerk but Sid is bringing on the funny, a little bit. IDK

    ReplyDelete
  23. ^ speaking of Sid I think he is a little bi-polar.

  26. Hi, everyone !

    Linda-- I was going to change mine but, I realized it was too hard. You shouldn't change yours, don't feel obligated. I like to find the similarities

    Tabby -- It was unintentional but, I guess I kind of did. It is kind of fun.

    Maylights-- I honestly have no idea why she thought that. I was going to delete it but, I couldn't. I think it's because Juliana doesn't know Elisa does not want to get married.

    Taran G- Me either.

    MakeMeLALA -- Not that I know of with the Sid/Sawyer thing. I will explain about her disease later.

    Aym-- I knew I wanted this to be a Juliana story again, eventually. I don't know about Cortland

    Petite_B -- Not, it was more the fact that Sawyer (the man) is the only one with a salaried, degreed job while the two girls are waitresses. Sawyer did notice the hickeys (look back) but he thought they were bruises because they were very dark.

    Maria -- Good point, I think they may have said "leave" but, divorce is a common word.

    Natalie-- There is a reason behind some of the names but, I can't remember how I got Flag Morton ( I know Morton had something to do with steakhouses)

    Tanya-- Patrick wasn't the one who assualted her, he was just in the car when it happened but yes he is a not the best person but, Juliana has a need to please.

    PrincessC-- Lol, I know. I did the waitress thing too.

    Marcia V-- It's nice to start riding again ! I think Sawyer is pretty picky when it comes to people.

    Heapsoflace-- No one find any meaning in this but, this is what I thought when I first met Joel Baker. His eyes are soooooo blue.

    Biteme -- I have some idea of what he may look like.I think they will be friendly but not friends.'

    Rita - He does care.

    Ladonia -- Yep, you got it exactly. Everyone was celebrating them and then Juliana did something to interrupt it.

    Flag_Morton-- I have no idea where it came from.I'm starting to think it was a little too cartoon-y

    Trinity -- Thank you ! I just feel like this is a little anti-femenist. That is why I made Kennedy a woman.

    Jenny P-- That one was all me.

    CranberriVodka-- I'm not sure what will happen next but, it will have to come back up.

    RedRose-- That was so unintentional ! I guess it's because when I write I get zapped into that world.

    Sunset-- To Sid, life is a joke !

    HannahBanana-- No, he's just drunk and not drunk.

    Lili-Pad-- Sawyer told her she should keep it and then she lost it.

    Thank you all for the comments
