| Castles In The Sky |
I’m Sarah, an over-dramatic, EXTREMELY insecure 13 year old and I have loved to write ever since I learnt how to hold a pen. I mainly like sitting in my cozy corner crying hysterically over the book I'm reading. I absolutely love classics such as A little Princess, Little Women, Jane Eyre. I have been reading them since I was eight, at which age I started on Ballet Shoes and The Railway Children. I was brought up on them and do read contemporary fiction, but only the best. I absolutely detest computer speak and modern teenage trashy fiction. I find both of these fruitless and a waste of time. It is probably because I am so shy and scared of new situations that I love acting so much - it's a way of becoming a completely new person. On stage I am this confident, brash person, and it is not so much like that in reality. Hence why I love the written word so much - for me there is no better cure for escaping from my pathetic, depressing, traumatic life than losing myself in the book I am reading or writing. Writing is a way of chanelling all my depression and resentment into creativity, and reading is a way of just melting into the words and getting so absorbed I forgot all the sadness happening outside my bedroom door. I have read thousands of books in my life and read on average 10 novels a day. From this summary I may sound very individual, but in fact every day I desperately try to conform. To read more about my constant struggle to fit in, read my blog: http://www.confessions-of-a-teenage-dramaqueen.blogspot.com I always use big, unheard of words even though I sometimes say them wrong and I love correcting people's grammar- its the most innocent way of getting at someone if they are annoying you. Feel free to email me , I may sound extremely bitter for a 13 year old but this is only because I've had to go through a lot, I actually love getting emails and writing to new people, I interact so much better through words and would love nothing more than to hear from a fellow writer, as none of my peers enjoy writing.
