hello!

name: Cala
age: 17 as of this writing
location: North Carolina!
Prison number: ...

What a way to break the ice. I never know how to start these things.
So I'm basically a poet with really really bad spelling. I like fried okra, the thought of walking through the woods, and choral music.
I hate bees, AP statistics, the thought of being alone, and writing long things.

My main kill-time aside from writing is a mud called MIRIANI.
It's all space combat theemed and lots of reading which thankfully doesn't apply to me. You see, I am totally blind and have a wonderful screen reader to read all that mess. (awkward silence...)
what?

For the young writer, I reccomend Duke Young Writer's Camp on Duke university campus in North Carolina. There were like, people from California when I went last year. It's a great two week camp, expensive (can you say financial aid?) but it opened my eyes to writing.
And Howard Craft is the best.

I am random and winning, yet shy and cautious.
most people are freaked out I think, because I can sit for hours in a crowd of people and not feel the slightest compulsion to speek. I guess I'm too busy making up stories in my mind.
I like purple and dislike pointy eared dogs.

I write about love and life and longing and last year.
Stephen King is the man.
William Blake is fascinating.
I'm going to be the Queen of England one day.

I guess that's it for now.

1. Tomorrow's Promise
I fell asleep in a war zone, but I awoke to peace. Written about a thunderstorm, incompassing so much more. It is war and life, it is fear and serenity. It is me curled on my bed this past Saturday hugging my stuffed Snow Leopard during a thunderstorm.
