New Movies By Me
Hey All-
So, I don't know if you guys know this but I am also really into making things on iMovie. I made all the book trailers for JAZMINE. And now I want to show you two new videos I've made in the last couple of months. The first is a character video about Aslan from "The Chronicles of Narnia." I love Narnia, and it was a tun of fun putting all the movie clips together to make this!

And this one is a fan made book trailer I made for one of my favorite fantasy books of all time: "The Unicorn Girl." If you love unicorns, magic, adventure, funny companions, spells and a girl who is above the extraordinary. Then this book is for you!
Well, I hope you enjoyed them and see you all next time...

Something New
Hola!
Guess what ya'll?! I just found the BEST instrumental/background vocals album ever!!! The music is based on video game/trailers/ movie music. And it is awesome! I'm going to use this artist (Future World Music) for all of my book trailers forevermore! My favorite song is the first in the album: Passion of Victory. This music is also great for when you're writing (if you like to listen to music while you write). Personally I love listening to music while I write. What I'm tapping on the keyboard along too can range from instrumental and celtic to hard core metal and rock. Depends on what mood I'm in... or what scene I'm writing :-) Definitely look this up, once you hit play and turn up the volume... you will have chills listening to it the entire time, trust me.

Short Stories - Gems of Nature
Sorry it's been such a long time since my last post! I got grounded from my computer :-(
Anyway, here is the short story I promised so long ago. It is centered around the nymphs Emerald and Sapphire from my book "Jazmine" before they lived in Second Ahnoria.

Weekly Saint Report - #2
St. John the Baptist
Saint John the Baptist was the son of faithful Jews, Zachariah, a priest, and Elizabeth, who was barren. According to the Gospel of St. Luke, the birth of John was announced by the angel Gabriel who visited Zachariah while he was performing priestly functions in the temple of Jerusalem. When Zachariah denied the angel’s proclamations, he was struck speechless at his un-belief in the power of God.
Not long after his wife, Elizabeth, announced she was with child. When Elizabeth was six months pregnant her young cousin Mary traveled from the neighboring town of Nazareth to help her during the remainder of the pregnancy. Mary had also been visited by the angel Gabriel who said that she also would have a child, who be be called the Messiah. When Elizabeth ran up to greet her cousin, the child in her womb leapt for joy for he had felt the presence of the Son of God in Mary’s womb.
When Zachariah and Elizabeth's baby was born, Zachariah regained his speech on the occasion when they named their baby, John.
Not much is known about the childhood of Saint John but we do now that when he was a young man, he disappeared into the desert to live a life of extreme fasting and prayer. Throughout the years he began to prophesy the coming of the Messiah; the Son of God. He drew many followers to himself through his teachings and converted many, baptizing thousands at the Jordan river.
It was at the Jordan river where Jesus, the son of Mary and Joseph of Nazareth, came to him and asked to be baptized. Recognizing Jesus as the Messiah he had been preaching about, John refuses saying, “It is not I who should baptize You... but You who should baptize me!” But Jesus persuaded John to baptize him, symbolizing Christ’s humanity. After John baptizes Jesus, the sky opens up and a dove alights on Jesus’ head while a voice says, “This is My beloved Son, in Whom I am well pleased.”
As Jesus leaves the Jordan, John introduces him to his disciples as the “Lamb of God.”
In another gospel account John is imprisoned for denouncing King Herod’s incestuous marriage to Herodias (who was not only his brother Phillip’s wife but also Herod’s niece) in violation of Old Testament Law. When Herdoias’ daughter Salome dances in front of Herod, he asks her what favor she desires in return. At the request of Herodias, Salome asks for the head of John the Baptist. St. John is then killed in approximately 28-36 CE, and his head is delivered to the princess on a gold platter.
