my little corner of the world
i'm a seventeen-year-old girl who's been writing since i was in first grade. i'm one of those grammar nerds, so writing without capitals kind of bothers me. i'm a fan of all things rock 'n' roll and i love photography. i tend to write about teenagers because i am one and i can relate to some of them.
if you send me a review, i will most probably review you back. i enjoy any and all reviews that aren't downright mean. critisism is good when it's constructive and needed.
my pen name is alastingimpression, though i couldn't tell you why. i've been using it as a username in random places for years.

fiction
All Fall Down- Still in progress. It's a story about eight teenagers who make some wrong decisions and come to regret their summer of fun. Taken from all eight point of views. I like this story.. read it.
Winter- A one-shot taken from a man's point of view. He sees a woman on the street one winter, but doesn't speak to her, though he thinks he should have. Now he writes his regrets for the past.
When Bad Things Happen To Bad People- Another experimental story. I actually really like it. It's basically about people who make bad decisions to get their way and the way they end up. All the characters connect if you pay attention and give it a chance.. I think it's all right.
A Day And A Half- A short little dialogue piece about a a married couple. Not much explaining to do. Eh.
wonderland- Written during my experimental period at a time when I'd been lacking sleep for about 36 hours. Read at your own risk. I actually really like it, but it's.. yeah.. read it.
Black and White Rose- Written for an English assignment in late 2004. It's about two best friends who find out that their P.E. coach is a pervert and decide to give him a taste of his own medicine, then tragedy ensues. I adore this story, though I see some mistakes now and I may edit it later. One-shot.
Back To You- A series I began in 2004 that I never finished. It's ok, but my writing is 10x better now. But yay for fluff.
