I've noticed SO Many things from all his Books of History (The Circle, the Lost Books, the Pardise Novels, Immanuel's Veins and a few extra thrillers thrown in like Skin, House). I'm so excited to find someone else who is as excited about his books as me! (Some of my friends think I'm crazyyy. He truly is inspiration!

I always liked how Tamora Pierce would sneak characters in from series to series, but it sounds like Ted has it down to an art.

I loved reading so much that I couldn't get enough. Writing my own stories gave me more! But I didn't start taking my writing seriously until college. So I think it's wonderful you're serious about your writing already and have started a blog while still in high school. Keep it up and good luck!Laura S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13934230198562773803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3111171655054723851.post-91417551813861798322011-08-27T09:57:45.238-05:002011-08-27T09:57:45.238-05:00Thanks, guys. ^^ Like I said, his style can be... ...Thanks, guys. ^^ Like I said, his style can be... interesting. Especially with his newer books. XD But he's still pretty awesome.<br /><br />@Tanya: Me and my sister started a club too. XD Just... Never did any actual babysitting. XD<br /><br />@Jillian: Ah, really? ^^ I haven't read much by Stephen King, to be honest. A few books here and there. I think I'm kind of intimidated by the fact that his books take up like a whole block of shelves at my school library. XD Plus, I have so much to read already...<br /><br />I do want to read 'On Writing', though. :) I've heard a lot of people recommend it. However, I don't think that one's going to interweave as much as others.

I'd never heard of Dekker before either, so thanks for the recommendation. :-D Your description of how he interweaves connections and language games throughout his works reminded me of what Stephen King does with The Dark Tower series (and actually almost everything he's ever written, once you start looking for the links).Jillian Schmidthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14421351338544997541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3111171655054723851.post-84267537400544590272011-08-25T17:15:48.026-05:002011-08-25T17:15:48.026-05:00I'd have to say what got me wanting to write w...I'd have to say what got me wanting to write was the Babysitters club series. <br /><br />I also started my own club with my friend. I was so inspired by them!<br /><br />As for inspirational writing, I really enjoyed Dean Koontz until recent years. He used to be amazing, not his stories are just . . . old. They've been done - by him - and more than once. <br /><br />Still love these posts :DTanyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00426585005950143758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3111171655054723851.post-39058269434295432882011-08-25T15:50:27.829-05:002011-08-25T15:50:27.829-05:00I'll have to check out Dekker's books.
