Welcome to A Light's On. My name is Ys and I am 26 years old. I am a full-time author, and a part-time dog-sitter. I live with my boyfriendfiance ♥, Pug Sweepie, and my sister. I got engaged this summer and so am spending most of my time now planning our private wedding.

I love clothes, design, photography, cooking, games, Pugs, websites and politics; there's a little bif of each here to read.



Purchase my novel "Shadows"

Suppport Independent Artists: Purchase 'Shadows' @ Lulu.com
A strange presence arrives in the sky and people start to die. A young man with a warped idea of love is one of the few survivors. Justin now has little time to figure out who he loves and just what lies he's been told - by himself as well as others.

Sweepie Adventures

Friday, July 10, 2009 | 10:28 AM

Last night Sweepie came with Ray and I down the beach so that Ray could do some fishing and I could sit in a chair and read a book ;)

She had a lovely time, running around, exhausting herself. She absolutely loves the beach. Keeping her off it so that we could follow the safe path down to the sand was hard enough ;)



As always she loved the water. She ran straight in and went dashing out until the water reached her belly and she had to turn back and run excitedly back to me.





She then asked me to throw some stones for her to chase. I can't throw them very far because she's far too small to go out too deeply. Although I know she can swim if she has to she prefers to stay in the shallow end. (Plus I'm just a crap thrower hehe ;D).



In the end she sat down by my chair and played guard dog for the rest of our time there. Which meant barking at any one who walked over the path behind us and chasing any dogs that so much as looked at us ;) Thankfully everyone knows she's just a mouthy little princess who isn't at all viscious so they all took it in good humour.



Unfortunately, when we got home she came to show me she had a bad paw. She held it out to me with a sad little expression on her face. Turns out she's scratched just between the pads of her front right paw. It's all enflamed and sore and she's feeling very sorry for herself. She also hates having to have it bathed in salt water three times a day. Then she has to have aloe vera cream put on it, which she doesn't mind too much, because she then gets to eat it off once I'm done! So this morning I had to put her father's sock over it to keep her off it.

Have you ever seen anyone look this sad before? She is just too cute!



Hopefully this won't turn into anything nasty. Her Grandma is coming round to see her this weekend so she can check it out (Grandma is a vet-nurse). But I'm expecting a full recovery in the next couple of days. Until then she's going to milk it for all that it's worth ;)

I am a big fan of the TUDOR DYNASTY. King Henry VIII has always been my favourite monarch, with his second wife Anne Boleyn being my favourite spouse.

I read everything I can get my hands on, visit the old castles and enjoy the historical TV shows.

As I have mentioned, I am an author. To follow me through the writing-process as I complete my new novel please visit my Journal.

Books are very inspirational to me. I'm always reading something new and really like it when people suggest new novels to try. Therefore I have become a big fan of Goodreads. Add Me to your list :)



photography
I got into photography about three years ago when my sister bought me a camera for my birthday. Unfortunately I wore it out! At the moment I use my boyfriend's Fuji S5600.

I like photographing my animals, clouds and documenting daily life.
