About Me!: Hey everyone, I guess you all know that my pen name is Joanna, but my real name is Ruthie like that girl off of 7th Heaven, and I'm fifteen. I've been writing since forever, but I really got inspired to start writing when I was in the 8th grade because I had to write a short horror story for English. That was a load of fun, and plus, when you're a homeschooled child like I was for eight years, it's always easier to goof off on your asignments writing stories than to fall asleep.

My Interest: Well, I'm a firm believer in the fact that "In order to be a writer one must read" so I read all I possibly can when I'm not at swim practice or playing my vioin. And, of course, writing is also one of my hobbies--I write a bunch. I also teach little kids how to swim and play music on the weekends.

R&R: So, I like getting feedback from my readers and try to read and review the stories of those who read and review for me. It may take me a while to R&R one or more of your stories so and I'm really sorry about that : but I did not forget about you and thank you so much for R&R my stories and such.

Music: I prefer listening to music rather than playing it because songs are realy really inspiring to me. I listen to every kind of music but my favorites are anything but classical and jazz.

Writing Genere: I usually write short stories and romance novelettes, but now I am getting into a little poetry.
