Book Review: The Secret of the Old Clock

Hey Guys,              Long time no see. Today I will be doing a book review on Nancy Drew: The Secret of the Old Clock by Carolyn Keene. I recently read this book and I really enjoyed it. Fun fact: My mom found 8 books in this series at a thrift store, two of those books were the book I am reviewing today. So without further ado lets get started.           This book is #1 in the series and if you wonder what the cover looks like just google "Nancy Drew" and it will come up in images. This is the revised version published in 1959 by Grosset & Dunlap. It's 20 chapters and 180 pages long. This book did not have a summary blurb any where on the cover or at the front of the book.         The main character in the book is Nancy Drew. Characters that appear a lot in this book are Mr. Drew, Hannah Gruen, Allison and Grace Hoover, the Topham family and Judy, Edna and Mary Turner. T...

Short Stories

Hey Guys, Long time no see! Happy holidays! I have been busy for a while and now that it's winter break I can blog more. I probably won't be following a posting schedule so my posts will be at random times on random days. I might, might  do a Christmas gift haul so stay tuned. Without further ado lets get started. Today I'm going to share two short stories I wrote doing a prompt a day. I wrote these stories on the 20th and 21st of December. I got these prompts from the seventh sanctum writing prompt generator linked  here . Enjoy!  Story 1: Prompt: The river is her friend. We never really understood Sadie. She was just different. I never really understood her until we became friends.  Sadie was only at school Monday, Wednesday and Friday. We never knew why. Sadie was alone all of the time, I was her only friend or so I thought. Sadie approached me on a gloomy Monday morning. "Rory, meet me after school down by the river. Don't not come." she said and...

New Month, New Changes

Hey Guys, I'm back! Since it's the start of October I thought I would start posting again. And I thought I would try some new things out. Today I'm going to share the changes I'm hopefully making and things I'm adding. So without further ado, lets get started.     The first thing is I will be trying out gadgets and things on my blog. Never tried it before wish me luck. The next thing is I will be trying out themes and colours to change things up. And I might be changing up what my posts look like as well. Those are all the new changes I will be making. See you next Sunday! Happy Canadian Thanksgiving! Dancing Tween

A Short Story

Hey guys, Sorry my posting has gone a little wonky lately, I haven't really had any ideas. If you have a post suggestion then leave it down below. So without further ado lets get started! Today I'm going to be sharing a short story I wrote recently. Enjoy! I closed my eyes and let the music flow through me. I finished, I heard some one clapping. I gazed over, I saw my friend Jess smiling back. "That looks so good Mackenzie!" She told me. "Thanks" I said as my cheeks turned pink. My act was really coming together. My schools talent show was coming up and I was really keen on performing and winning the best dance award. All of a sudden Kaylee, my enemy and her crew came over. "Do you really think you have a chance?" She snickered and walked away. After a few more days of preparing the talent show was finally here. It was after school and I was in my costume, ready to go on. I was extremely nervous, then my name was called. I walked on stage an...
