Welcome!
A Little About Little Ol' Me ;3
First, things you need to know-
Name- Elli Ray Hale
Nickname- Silence
Gender- Female
Age- 14 (Go me. :3)
Second, some things you don't need to know but might want to-
Best Personality Trait- Loyal (I don't mean to brag, but it is the truth. It can be a fault at times as well.)
Worst Personality Trait- Moody and Anger Issues
Favorite Thing To Do- Imagine

Third, some stuff about what you might expect from me-
Writing View- Third Person or First Person
Writing Genre- Fantasy and Romance (Sometimes Action and Adventure as well)
Review Statistics- I try to be a good reviewer. You know, the ones that give out all the constructive critism and are harsh enough to make you review your own story with a new eye. These are the kinds of reviews I like the best, so I figured I'd give them a try as well. ;3
Average Update Speed- Uhhhh... How about almost never? XD
Average Chapter Length- I try to make them at least 4,000 words per each one, but I enjoy writing more than that.
Average Story/Novel Length- I try and make all my stories long enough to be novel size, if not more. I would be very appreciative if you told me how well I'm doing with this, but I can understand if you don't want to. (I would like it if you told me if you understood it, however.)
Lastly, some random and yet not so random things from yours truly-
Did you know- My username/pen name was originally based off someone else's and my other one on noepets. Her username had 'shining' in it, and she was my rolemodel, so naturally I copied it. Sadly, I misspelled it 'Shinning' instead. Hey, I was only ten.
Did you know- I'm a ... semi-hypocrite. (Blimey! All gasp in terror!) I roleplay Eragon and plan on someday writing a Fanfic for it, but I harbor an intense dislike for Paolini. -cough-Jealous-cough-
Did you know- The term "vision turned red in anger" is not only true, but I've experienced it. No, I'm not making it up. I literally snapped one day, and around my vision there was red and in the middle everything was dark and cloudy. True enough, that was the day I cried four times, meh own personal record. -giggles-
Did you know- I've been wearing glasses for the longest in my grade, and I have a vision of about -600/20, or -5 to those with contacts. But, because my vision is comparative to a bat (basically my hand on arm's length away is blurry or worse) my other sense are more acute. I can hear noises that no one else hears until I point them out (one time I even heard a mouse in an instrument case during practice and I saved some poor bloke from taking it home) and my sense of taste is extreme. I can taste the difference between lettuce. O_o
Did you know- I suffer from periods of Entomophobia. xD My biggest fear is off bees, and it even goes as far that I twitch and run away when a fly suddenly buzzes into a room. Of course, then I get angry and try and kill it, but... (Yes yes, Anger Issues. -laughs-)
Did you know- I can't use a snorkle underwater 'cause I hyperventilate and have a panic attack. :3
~•Friends•~
Jane Precious- She was one of the first friends I ever had on here, and her writing is very nice. I suggest you read her stories- if you like her brand of writing, that is. :3
Kayce- She's a friend of mine in real life as well as here, so naturally I'd say to look at her stories. However, please go with a kind eye and a constructive review... REALLY kind eye, please. ( She doesn't take criticism too well. Shhh. :0 )
Corporal Spivilles- Gave me the first review I ever had, if I remember correctly. Stories are also worth looking through- they are pretty good. ;3
Dark Shadou- She's like family to me, so naturally she'll have a little spot here. However, she also is a really good writer. Sure, her style isn't that of your average writer here, but it's in a good way. I'd say review her stories and read them, or course, for -if her Fanfictions are anything to go by- they'll be worth the read and wait. :3
Favorite Quotes-
"ZOMG! It's an ADJECTIVE! :O Everyone run and scream in terror!" -Myself
"Mankind? Bah. I'll hate them in general but I'll love them in particular." -Me, going off someone else's quote (xD)
"If you had all the time in the world to read a single book you haven't read before, and if as soon as you chose it the others would disapear, what genre of book would you choose?
'You and your friend are held at gunpoint. This friend being one of your best. The man tells you it's your life or your friend's and you have to chose. Do you spare your own life, or your friends?
'What do you think of the folllowing statement: Everyone has a right to their opinion, but has no right to force their opinion on others?
'Say there everything you know in the world will be demolished before your eyes, but you are given the chance to save one thing or person. That means one tree, one rock, etc.. Once given that chance, you must decide: What would you travel through hell and back for?
'Say everything in your little world was fine- All your friends were together and lived normal, happy lives, having no idea of what went on beyond their line of sight. Except you know. You know life is full of magic and mystery outside of your normal life, but while it's a gaurentee you'll survive to old age in this life, outside in the world you don't know if you would live to see the next moonrise. Would you give up your friends and family to take an adventure to learn the arts of magic and mystery, even if it cost you your life, if you were given the opportunity?
'What do you believe in: forgive and forget, forgive and put behind you but never forget, or never forgive and hold the grudge? And also, why do you believe what you chose?
'Say you have a dream to be something when you grow up, and you truly want and somewhere inside you believe that you could be this thing when you grow up (as long as it is realistically possible, no turning into a puppy). What if no one, not even your parents and friends, really thought you could be this thing? Nor do they want you to, for it's "for your own good". Would you still follow your dream?" -Relic and I during our game of questions
"What do you think of Leon?" -Relic (I honour her bluntness. And this is the only question I have ever avoided from answering for over month. :0)
And now, an excerpt from Leon and I's recent conversation, which just happens to be one of my favorites:
Elli: You just focus on the negative stuff too much, but just about everyone does that. And that's understandable. You have a lot of stuff going on in your life, and I'd imagine some of it isn't pretty.
Elli: Yes. And they take it out on each other, which makes a down hill spiral until it's very very dark. Sometimes I think there is no way to avoid that. So that's why you have to make yourself a flashlight! :D
Elli: Thanks. But what I mean is if you find something that makes you happy... well. do it. If someone makes you happy, stick with them. And if you make them happy, drag them into that little black pit with you. You'll be each other's flashlights. :3
Two heads /are/ better than one in this case. xD
Story(s) Information, ect:
Lingering Shadows:
Okay! Since I've... whatever. I realized the descriptions were too confusnig for some people, so I'm remodeling the book storyline so it'll be easier. Guess what! There is people! Shocking! XD
Conditions:
Copywrite: You all probably know about this, but I just want to restate it: If it's not yours, no touchy. There- 'nough said.
Thank you.
Laterz,
Elli Ray Hale
UNDER REVISION XD
