| BoarderKC |
Author has written 28 stories for General, Life, Love, Fantasy, Essay, General, Action, Romance, Religion, and Humor. So I'm BoarderKC, Brittany. I'm a twenty-something writer, living out a dream of floudering through life and writing on the side. Thus far, its worked out well. I write just about everything, short stories, novels and poetry, though I stay more toward the prose side of things. I like writing for young adults, but I also like dealing with some very non-young adult issues. I've just finished my first novel. Defenses, though I'm working on heavily revising it now. I'd love to get some feedback on it. I've got other stories started here, Broken, Speak Like A Child, and a ton more in my head, but unfortunately the writing fairy is a little iffy with me and inspiration doesn't strike as often as it should. I'll get things done, I swear, just be patient with me. And that is all.
