City of Glass

No, this is not a blog about a city made of glass. But that would be interesting if there was one, and someone threw a rock in the middle of it……..

Anyway, you may have guessed what this blog is about. It is about….. *drum roll*……  book 3 of the Mortal Instruments- City of Glass.

Written by Cassandra Clare, this book is about a legendary battle between evil and good. It has vampires, werewolves, faeries and warlocks included in it, and the secret world of the Shadow Hunters must ally themselves with the creatures they share the world with, in the battle of their lives. This is the blurb on the back of the book:

Amid the chaos of war, the Shadow Hunters must decide to fight with the vampires, werewolves and other Dowwnworlders- or against them. Meanwhile, Jace and Clary have their own decision to make: Should they pursue the love they though is forbidden?

This is the epic finale to the war between Valentine and the Shadow Hunters….. while he is alive. Read the book and find out who wins the amazing battle.

New Features! Let me explain.

 

Aloha! . . . oh wow, that’s how you spell it? I thought that the spell checker was going to throw a fitzy at me . . . oh, there we go, “fitzy” is underlined in a blood red wiggly line, oh technology, you’d be a beech.

Okay, onto business! I’m here to tell you about a few new things that I’ve added/fixed with the site, this is the reason it was offline a few times . . . I ran into a spot of bother here and there . . . Here’s a little list of the things I’ve added:

CHANGES

 New link checker thing! It plays YouTube videos from links on posts, and even allows you to search a term by highlighting it, handy dandy! It allows you to stay nice and comfy on this site while you access further content. New Forum! This new forum no longer has the stupid glitches when posting topics or replies, the only downside is that it’s no longer integrated with the groups… But it works! New Point System! You can earn points by visiting the site, commenting on things, writing blog posts, these points can then be used in the store to purchase stuff! New Group Wiki! Now creating a group on Benaball.com is even better, start a group with friends and all work on a project or book. You can all modify it and add to it, similar to Wikipedia.
 New Report button! Is there a nasty spamming mongrel trying to sell stuff? Or a rude arrogant mongrel that obviously came across this site by mistake and is picking on you? You can now visit their profile and report them using the “Report User” button!  Random posts widget! Come on, let’s relive some of our awesome content from the past. The random post widget found somewhere in the sidebar, shows off a selection of posts from the site at random.  Resources button! Up along the top bar that hovers with you, you will find the “Resources” button, this takes you to the Author Resources area, where you can read how-to’s . . . the page itself needs to be updated . . .  Auto-direct! When you log in you are now taken straight to where you wanna be, your profile. So have fun?

There are other minor little tweaks and bits around the place. But apart from that, if you’re interested, I’ve stuck the main new features into this video here:

New Features – September

 

There’s another feature right in front of your eyes! See it?

There’s a small video icon next to the link above, hover your mouse over it and you get to play the video! Tadaa!

 

The point system is going to need a few tweaks, I obviously won’t be selling the NeWs! Tshirts in the store for points because I’d lose far too much money, and I’d end up selling my cardboard box to survive.

 

Things that you’ll be able to purchase is stuff like upgrades, pictures, games, music.

Legal of course, I’m not posting other people’s games or music, it’ll all be my own, or other members work.

 

Well thanks for reading and enjoy the new features!

The Mortal Instruments- City of Ashes

‘A story word I love’- Stephenie Meyer

Hey Guys/Girls, whoever is reading this.

As you may have realised, this post is about Book 2 of the Mortal Instruments series- City of Ashes.

Here is the blurb on the back:

‘With her mother in a coma and her father hellbent on destroying the world, Clary Fray is dragged deeper into New York City’s terrifying underworld of werewolves, demons and the mysterious Shadowhunters. Discovering the truth abut her past was only the beginning. Now the fate of the world rests on Clary’s shoulders, but can she master her new-found powers and control her feelings for a boy who can never be hers?

 

I love this series of books, and I am now reading them again for the third time 😀

Earlier, I tried to make a poll for this blog, but it didn’t work, as only admins are capable 🙁 So, what I am going to do is ask you a simple question, without the smart buttons and switches……

What do you do on a day to basis? Do you

Lyrics: When I’m home, I take things for granted
Always looking past the good things I wear
distant eyes
You can see the restless soul always itching to run
When I’m home, when I’m home
I don’t want nothing to change
I just want it to stay the same

It’s been a long time, been a long time, yeah, yeah
Well it’s been a long time, been a long time, yeah, yeah
I missed you
Been a long time, been a long time, yeah, yeah
And I’m steering in the fast lane, counting every white line
kiss you in the morning and meet when the sun shines
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na
Meet me in the sun shine
Na na na na na na na na

When I’m alone, every highway looks the same
And I’m half the world away, I’ll be calling out your name
I don’t wanna run anymore
Unless I’m running to your door

It’s been a long time, been a long time, yeah, yeah
Well it’s been a long time, been a long time, yeah, yeah
I missed you
Been a long time, been a long time, yeah, yeah
And I’m steering in the fast lane, counting every white line
kiss you in the morning and meet when the sun shines
I’m expecting you to walk around the corner
And you looking at me smiling
and from the movie and you’re crying
And you’re speaking words of gibberish
Cause you don’t know what you saying
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na
So meet me in the sun shine
Na na na na na na na na
Cause it’s been a bloody long time
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na
So meet me in the sun shine
Na na na na na na na na

Well it’s been a long time, been a long time, yeah, yeah
Well it’s been a long time, been a long time, yeah, yeah
I missed you
Been a long time, been a long time, yeah, yeah
And I’m steering in the fast lane, counting every white line
kiss you in the morning and meet when the sun shines
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na
Meet me in the sun shine
Na na na na na na na na
It’s been a long time, a bloody long time
So meet me in the sunshine.
