Author has written 33 stories for Life, Friendship, Love, and Nature.

I'm Leila.

20.

I used to be her and her. I've changed a lot since then.

my eljay is dead. my fanfics are dead. my muse is vacationing, but still writes home sometimes.

I write because I have to, not because I want to. But that doesn't mean that I don't want to, necessarily.

I like semicolons, dashes, and strange sentence structures.

I dislike arrogance, compliment-fishing, coconut, mangoes, and the color brown.

I love God, post-it notes, Disney, dresses, books, children, flowers, and love.

I am ridiculously optimistic and intense and perhaps a bit on the frightening side.

I live in extremes, love almost everyone I know, and survive each day only because of my faith, friends, and coffee pot.

I gave up a full-ride scholarship to a prestigious nursing school to be a full-time volunteer, and I have never been happier.

I have also had my very own Prince Phillip for a year & three months :)

true story.

A person who has good thoughts cannot ever be ugly.
You can have a wonky nose and a crooked mouth
and a double chin and stick-out teeth,
but if you have good thoughts they will shine out of your face like sunbeams
and you will always look lovely.

(Roald Dahl)

news...ish.

10.10.11

I am still alive!

Just very busy...

I may be writing again soon, I hope :)

if you read something,

please review, even if it's just
"I liked it," or "jolly ranchers!" or "asjudfrhuieh37y47yfbsjh."

it's just nice to know someone is out there, you know?

all it takes is a minute and a few random words (or letters!) :)

(and I return reviews. because that's the polite thing to do.)

also.

if you read anything,
I suggest spoonful of sugar or
blinded or lupus.

but those are just three of my personal loves.
