Hi!
My name is Sara, and I'm 17. As of September (2008), I'll be a senior in high school. I live near Detroit, Michigan.
School starts for me on September 3rd, so I'll be writing less. I've been working on one of my stories, "Won't Give up the Fight" since June 2007. I started my second major story, "Headlights," on June 17, 2008. My newest story, "Insecurities," started writing itself on August 2, 2008, but I posted it on August 28, 2008. Information on each of these is below. I've posted other stuff on here, but deleted most of it. I also have a series of oneshots I'm working on occasionally, basically to cure my writers block for the major stories.
In the great race to finish one of the aforementioned stories, "Headlights" will probably win. The problem with "Won't Give Up the Fight" is that it's so long at this point and so cheesy, I might not even finish it. I'm actually considering completely rewriting it (again). And "Insecurities" is too new, I'm not completely sure where I'm going with it, so it won't be finished for a while.

Other information: I was driving my brother to football practice one morning, and I randomly was inspired to write this story.
So this is where I tell you more than you could ever want to know about me.
I'm sorta weird, if you can't tell by my stories. I'm an idealist, which sucks. I'm especially an idealist about love. Don't hold it against me. Hopefully you'll see in "Headlights" and "Insecurities" that I'm trying to change that.
You may or may not be able to determine this by my stories/profile, but I watch a little too much One Tree Hill, which causes me to have to work not to make my stories too One-Tree-Hill-ish. Good show, though. You should watch it. But if you don't like it, that's okay too.
I like RENT, but it doesn't have much influence on my stories. Likewise with Les Mis--little hard to include that in stories that take place in present-day United States, unless it's symbolic or something.
Unfortunately, I've been reading a little too much Twilight in the past few weeks. We'll have to see what effect that's going to have.
Life experience...right. Not here.
I live in an affluent suburb of Detroit. Forgive me if it seems I have no idea about anything...it's probably because I don't.
I'm addicted to ellipses...
I'm in the process of applying to college. Wish me luck.
I'm planning on majoring in psychology. Writing's more a hobby than anything else.
My email address is srgirl6@gmail.com. Email me if you want.
And my AIM is srgirl6889. IM me if you want.
I also have an account on FanFiction, srgirl6889. I don't post stories, though. At least not yet.
I also speak Italian. Ciao, amichi! Buon giorno! Come stai? Ah, sto bene, grazie. Posso parlare piu, ma nessuno capirebbe. Mi dispiace.
Don't feel bad if you can't understand that.
One thing more (ha, Les Mis reference): If you review mine, I review yours. I can't make any promises about it being a long, extremely helpful review, but I know how it feels to think no one's reading.
Thank you for reading that stuff, and hopefully for reading my stories.
Love ya,
Sara/sfh09
P.S. SENIORS 2009!
