Author has written 3 stories for Young Adult, and Life.

Name=Jenna.

I live in Washington, the state of eternal rain, in the good ol' US of A. I'm 16, very eclectic, and extremely random.

Passions=Writing, Reading, Acting, Music.

Musical tastes are as follows: AMAZING. Haha, okay, but seriously, as far as genres go: Alternative, Rock, Punk, Screamo/Hardcore, 80s, Techno/Electronica, 50s/60s, Swing/Big Band, Classical, Jazz. Kinda like Casey.. character in the book I'm writing.. well, exactly like Casey.

My story, Blur, is actually a book I'm writing. Think of it as if Maximum Ride, Twilight, and Harry Potter all had a baby. Wow.. that'd be one sarcastic, messed up baby.. Ahem, AWKWARD, ahem..

But that may just mean slight plot similarities, or similar writing styles, so don't get any ideas!! And I'm not claiming to own any of thee above and I'm not plagarising anything, so all you lawyers can BACK OFF and stop giving me dirty looks!!

Just read it. I'm pretty proud of it so far.

I just have this really bad writing habit of getting an idea, then writing it down, but then I start writing it so I have all these little chapters or situations that are going to be in there eventually, but I kinda need to work on the beginning, so I have something to add them in to..

So I'm working on it. Bear with me.

FEEDBACK!! That's all I ask for. =)
