First post

Hi there! Well, here I am, starting a blog. I don't want to sound like some fourth grade fangirl, so I'm going to try and sound a little bit civilized. Just got finished watching the movie Julie and Julia, and it inspired me to write a blog about what I like...LOVE. Here I will be blogging all things Wicked. Hoping to blog everyday, but, I have a problem setting high aspirations for myself and then not always meeting them.

A little about me:
I hope to be a writer someday. When people ask I say that I write fantasy, but I also write poetry and some song lyrics. Also, my genre is not limited to fantasy. I also write some fanfiction, and dabble in what takes my fancy. I have a great idea that I can only dream about getting published, since it's a comic book story and DC Comics would have to pick it up because...well, never mind about that. If I had to eat one food for the rest of my life it would be popcorn. Currently, there are five hats sitting on a stuffed tiger sitting on my desk, and I know that because I'm looking at it right now.

I have not finished the book Wicked, although I own all three in the series. I hope to re-start reading Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West and blog chapter by chapter. (Hoping this blog will motivate me.) However, my true love lies in the musical.

Advice to those who have somehow stumbled upon here and don't know what I'm talking about: Go see the musical, and just skip the book.

Oh, sure, the book is greatly written. However, I feel it contains too many unnecessary details. More on that later.

In short, I had a friend once say that I'm "tbe biggest Wicked fan I've ever met". If you can find someone more obsessed than me, send them here so we can become best friends.

The problem I run into now is what to blog first. I own over 20 Wicked related items, plus I want to blog the books chapter by chapter (or something like that), I have 2-3 reports from high school I wrote on Wicked (one on the musical, one on the composer, Stephen Schwartz), not to mention the other books Gregory Maguire has written, the other musicals and films Stephen has composed. Just wow, I feel like there is a lot to be covered. Well, we shall see.

"But of course I'll care for Nessa."
