Never regret life, learn from it. -- My personal saying.
Hello. My name is Care. I am 18 and I love to read and write, and hang out with friends. Commonly I have had issues getting homework done in school because I'm too busy reading to actually do the homework. But I'm getting better. I have been known to finish more than one book in a day. I've also been known to do nothing but read for an entire day. Some people would call this escapism, and to some extent I believe it is, but it's also just a love of the written word. I read everything I can get my hands on, including shampoo bottles, cereal boxes, milk cartons, et cetera.
My friends call me Martha Stewart sometimes, only a much nicer version that isn't all wrapped up in fraud charges. I bake, sew, grow plants, and clean. And I'm proud of it.
Generally I just read stories on fictionpress. I'm very insecure about my writing. Sometimes when I read over one of my stories, I worry that people will think my stories are boring, or that I ramble. Or that they cannot handle my weird writing style. I'm very fond of writing in fragmented sentences. But I refuse to conform. I refuse.
I am extremely excited about my new Ballet Slippers story. It's the most time I've ever taken to write for a story, and pretty much the only one I truly like so far. I actually got a review on it. And people are reading. I'm freaking excited. Woo excitement! I tried calling my friends who would care, they didn't pick up. Oh the irony. So I suppose I am rambling on here instead. Pitiful.
