Author has written 9 stories for General, Romance, General, and War.

So as of right now, I'm having this sudden and weird urge to update my profile. Shall we begin?

Age: I am currently 14 years old and eagerly awaiting another birthday. Usually my age is easy to tell by my writing, but y'know just in case you're totally blind then here ya go.

Pets: Yes I understand the randomosity of this question, yet I find it somewhat relevant, though I'm not sure why. As of right now I have a rat terrier named Callie and a pet rock named Joe, but I don't know where he is at this present moment.

Religion: For me, my religion usually takes a big part in my stories. Therefore, some things I may not know much about seeing as I grew up in a Christian family and other things I don't approve of even though I write about them. Some of these include: alcohol, smoking, drugs, sex before marriage, homosexuality as well as a few other things. Usually, these are the only things I do not promote in my stories.

Favorite Books: Seeing as this is a site where you can write things, this seems very relevant. As of now some of my favorite books are The Adventures of Fanboy and Goth Girl, Candy, The Road of The Dead, Lucas, and Black Rabbit Summer. I also like anything by Scott Westerfeld and Richelle Mead and I'm a big fan of the Pendragon and Twilight series. Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE MicrosoftInternetExplorer4

Favorite Movies/TV Shows: Movies and TV are some of my most favorite things to do. As far as movies go I like...Titanic, Sweeney Todd, P.S. I Love You, The Dark Knight, 27 Dresses, Amazing Grace, Weekend at Bernie's, Across the Universe, Salem's Lot, Van Helsing and my all-time favorite The Little Mermaid.

Music: Music plays a huge role when I write. Usually when I listen to a song I get inspiration out the wazoo. Such as for Maybe Isn't Good Enough I listened to Thunder by Boys Like Girls about eight or nine times in a row because it was just the most amazing song then. As for now. . . I really get inspiration from Pink and Blue October. Yet, while I write, I love to listen to Red, Three Days Grace, Fall Out Boy, Panic! At The Disco, Trapt, Disturbed, and 3 Doors Down.

Miscellaneous information that could not be included above: So get ready for a montage of info irrelevant to anything!! :) I get my inspiration for my stories at night or when I'm bored out of my mind. Those are the times when I can write a complete short story or new chapter in less than an hour (I kinda call that power writing :P). That's also the time I get the most headaches and finger cramps. During the summer I don't see a point in sleeping till two or three in the morning, but on school nights it's way earlier. And unless it's a school day, I'm not usually up before ten; morning person I am not. I must have coffee or caffeine to get me through the day. I critcize myself WAY too much and usually can't stand my own writing. I'm a procrastinator (to my mom's horror) and I do NOT do well under pressure. I stress way too much and I worry too much about other people's opinions. I don't think before I speak, I ramble ALL the time, and I usually embarrass myself way too easily. I prefer Jacob over Edward, Coke over Pepsi, and a keyboard over a pen/pencil. I think about guys too much and I usually crush on guys I could never have. I am the epitome of a cliche girl by my klutziness, perverted friends, and always falling for my best guy friend (which has worked out quite well for me lately may I add). I'd rather do ten pages of history homework than sit through our English teacher talk about antonyms and synonyms. I can't STAND internet language; it irks me to no end. I used to know exactly what I wanted to be when I grew up, but now I'm tossing around teaching, marine biology, or both. I can't stand anything where people drown or are in closed spaces (claustrophobic? heck yeah). I get obsessed with the littlest things and during English I try to say the smartest things, but usually am just grasping at straws. Because of my English teacher I now can't enjoy a book without correcting all the helping verbs and "that's" and I can't enjoy a movie without thinking of plot points and literary devices. I play my music way too loud and I listen to stuff all my family and friends hate. I would love to see Newsboys, Hinder, or Red in concert and my mom actually agrees. I talk about myself WAY too much and usually can't shut up. I'm sometimes pessimistic, weepy, and emotional, but usually I'm optimistic. In a group of people my age, I'm usually shy and don't know what to say, but around older people I can be pretty loud and sarcastic. There are certain things I'll never do and certain things I wish I never did. And with that I leave you to finish this uber boring profile.

Other contact? If you really wanna contact me you can email me. Pretty much it. I don't have a myspace or facebook and I don't want one.

What I write: I'm more of a romantic person when it comes to writing. Funny, dramatic, and horrific I am not. I'm kind of a vampire addict, but I don't feel I could do a vampire story justice, therefore you won't be getting one from me.

News

2-5-09- Well happy late New Year everyone! Heh. Well as for updates on writing... Gotta tell the truth: I got nothing. I started something but the first chapter isn't even partially finished so there probably won't be anything new unless my English teacher makes us write something which would soooo not be fun.

Broken Commitments- Tara, committed to sexual purity since 8th grade, has just disobeyed the most important commitment in her entire life. A few weeks after breaking that commitment, she finds out that she is pregnant. As Tara struggles with the moral battle against her mom, the emotional issue with herself, and the stress that is building up between her and her fiance, she finds more to herself than she could ever imagine.

Little commentary: I got the idea for this story up at camp and I decided to post it. I'm very happy with the reviews I've gotten. They make me so happy, happy, joy, joy! Also, if you have any ideas for the gender of the baby, the name, any wedding thoughts, or even pictures for the characters! Please PM me and tell me. I'm thinking more ceremony for the wedding. The reception probably won't be in a lot of detail, but just tell me anything you'd like. On a temporary hiatus.

As of RIGHT now... I'm deciding whether or not to get a web page to put all of the pictures on. I probably will, but it'll just be a little bit. So for now, there are no character pictures and there won't be for just a bit. But I promise that if I get a web page I'll put them on there!

Notes

Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE MicrosoftInternetExplorer4

The stories I write are completely and fully fictional. They aren't based on anyone or anything I've met or done. I appreciate reviews, but please, keep rude comments to private messages or the such (I appreciate criticism in reviews, just not "this sucks" or "this is horrible"). I also have no gurantee to when I'll update. I have school, and according to my mom (ugh) education comes first. I try to update on the weekend and sometime in the middle of the week. I promise that if I don't update when I say, I'll supersize the next chapter and try to update two days in a row. It takes me longer than most people to write a chapter, but mostly because I try to be so correct and I criticize my own self so much that I can't even stand my own writing sometimes. I want to thank you so much for actually listening to me rant. I hope you enjoy what I write!
