DREAMS

Far away there in the sunshine are my aspirations. I may not reach them, but I can look up and see their beauty, believe in them and try to follow where they may lead.
-by Louisa May Alcott

Living in my world of dreams, different stories come to life. Some I wish to forget, some I wish to cherish in my heart forever and some I wish never ended.

The last ones are the ones I will try to write about. If you know me, you might recognise some things. If you don't know me, you also might just recognise something of yourself in it. Then I know I did my work good.

I know I am not the best writer you can find here. However, I am working on that. I hope in the near future that my writing will get better, as well as my grammar. But in the mean time, I will try and give the best I can in every story.

Just because I love writing.

In the real world, I am everything but a writer. I do am a 19 year old female from The Netherlands. I am currently in my seceond year of university where I am trying to discover the secrets of ancient history, languages and cultures. I do like to point out that this is taking a very large amount of my time, which results in not to many time left to write. And I feel sorry for that. My hobbies, besides writing, are reading, watching movies and series, swimming and playing waterpolo.

What I also would like to stress is, that for some unknown reason, I always get a writersblock after the first chapter from a story that I really like. Most of the time I just start writing when I really feel like it and that urge mostly results in a new story or chapter. But because of the previously mentoined lack of time, this doesn't really occur frequently.

And, as you might have noticed by now, I am in need of someone who is willing to give up some of his/her free time in order to reread my stories to get all the mistakes out of it, because I know they are there. If you feel up to it, please leave me a message or a review, which one you prefer. Thank you.

I was reading some stories and essays and my reviews, and I realised something. I know for a fact that I'm not a very good writer. My grammar is awful and my spell-ability isn't good either. And that is something I regret. Because I really do like to write. My problem though is that I always have difficulties converting my thoughts and dreams into a well written story. And then there is my writersblock, which seems to be always existent. I really try to work on all of this, so that I can be a better writer in the future. Now would be a good time. It's summer, I have the time to do it. And I hope it will result in better work here on FictionPress. Untill that time, I hope you can get through my bad written stories to give some constructed criticism on it which I can use to improve the stories. Thank you for reading all this and I wish you good luck with your writing!
