Author has written 47 stories for Humor, Fantasy, School, General, Life, Song, Friendship, Nature, and Love. Yeah, I chopped off all that random crud that was on my profile. Maybe it was because I read a book on subtlety and unity in writing. I'll keep things book-centered from now on. Books I Recommend: -The Ranger's Apprentice series by John Flanagan (Please read this. Your age, gender, and genre preferences don't matter. Please read this.) -Dormia and World's End by Peter Kujawinski and Jake Halpern -Guardians of Ga'Hoole and Wolves of the Beyond by Katharyn Lasky, but don't use them as a model for your writing -Dragon Slippers and companions by Jessica Day George -The Warriors series by Erin Hunter (but only if you can handle TERRIBLE endings!!!!!) -Anything by Brian Jaques -Savvy and Scumble by Ingrid Law -The Mysterious Benedict Society and companions by Trenton Lee Stewart -Nightshade City and The White Assassin by Hilary Wagner (I especially recommend these!) -The Secret series by Pseudonymous Bosch -Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury, may he rest in peace Books I Don't Recommend: -Swear to Howdy by Wendelin van Draanen. This book almost made me throw up. -Dogsong by Gary Paulsen. Same as Swear to Howdy. -Mick Harte Was Here by Barbara Park, unless you like to bawl like heck. -The Lottery Rose by an author I don't remember, unless you like tragic endings. -The Pigman by another author I don't remember. Soooo depressing... | |||||||||
